Yūdai Imamura is an 18-year-old forward from Tokushima Prefecture, born July 15th (Cancer, blood type O). Standing 178 cm tall with a baby pink character color, his family includes parents, two older sisters, and a younger sister. Before Blue Lock, he played for Chiyara Company High School Football Club, starting football at age seven, and idolizes Sergio Agüero.
Energetic, carefree, and flirtatious, Imamura frequently equates football's thrill to chasing romance, declaring his primary hobby is seducing women and his ideal type "all women." He dislikes gloomy atmospheres and avoids seriousness, preferring lightheartedness. A self-described socialite who values communication, he reacts strongly to being called boring and touts his ability to forget problems overnight as a strength. His flirtations once resulted in being slapped, the last incident that made him cry.
As a forward, Imamura cites speed and technique as his greatest weapons, though they rarely distinguish him in matches. Right-footed, his motto—"Trust your throbbing lower body"—highlights his focus on agility and instinct. Temporarily positioned as Team Z's main forward against Team Y in the First Selection, he struggled to leverage his abilities effectively, typically contributing support rather than decisive plays.
During the First Selection in Block 5's Team Z, he participated in all early matches, including the dormitory tag game. Against Team V, he assisted defensively by marking players like Nagi. His jokes, such as teasing Kunigami about surpassing limits, reflected his role in maintaining morale, though his performances didn’t significantly impact outcomes.
Ranking 104th in the Second Selection, Imamura teamed with Wataru Kuon and Okuhito Iemon as the "Late Starters." Hampered by Kuon's reputation for betrayal, their match saw Imamura's careless remarks cause Iemon to faint, further crippling the team. Their collaboration failed, resulting in Imamura's elimination.
His preferences include a favorite color (orange), favorite food (wasa beef/wasabi beef chips), and least favorite (liver). He enjoys wasabi flakes with rice, prefers mushrooms to bamboo shoots, and favors summer for beaches and swimsuits. He likes the song "Ao to Natsu" by Mrs. GREEN APPLE, the film *Top Gun: Maverick*, and the manga *Battle Royale*. He admits a lip fetish, claims receipt of 102 Valentine’s chocolates in one year, and states he would spend 100 million yen on dating.
