Shun has a somewhat laid-back, childlike, and reckless personality, as well as a sense of arrogance; he seems to be slightly disliked by some others. Karel mentions that he is somewhat cowardly; he uses various methods to hide himself and inflict poison, and at other times he himself mentions that he did not give link-aid to incapacitated teammates in order to save his own skin.

He dislikes missions that are too simple for him, having a preference for challenges. Karel mentions that even a simple Kongou would be enough to give him a hard time, hinting to the fact that he is ill-prepared for encounters with stronger Aragami.

Trivia

 * It is possible to play as the original Shun design from God Eater via Character Creation.
 * In Japanese, Shun means "speed".
 * Karel mentions that Shun uses venom against Aragami, which is true in-game as his attacks have a chance to inflict venom on an aragami despite only using a simple long blade.
 * Shun gives a low amount of Link-Aid when he comes to save you. In God Eater 2, from version 1.40 onwards, this can be used to your advantage via the NPC Level Up system to gain high amounts of health at minimal cost to his survivability, making him quite the Link-Aid battery.
 * Shun's Blood Art is Air Triangle, Hiten Wheel.
