== Arcadia (Goli's Graphic Gallery) ==
Full Name - Shirou Kanzaki (神崎士朗)<br>
Half Japanese and American (with a preference for Japan). Back when he lived at home, Shilow used to play with his younger brother [[Ereki]]. He enjoys listening to techno music, which is in the same vein of Detroit techno. In terms of the genre, he likes minimalist techno for dancing, and intelligent techno for listening. Shilow's play history with IIDX started with [[AC 2nd style|2nd style]], and he shares an indomitable rivalry with [[Yuz]], which continues on to this day. While quiet on the outside, Shilow’s a player with a burning passion on the inside. Out of everyone in his group, he dislikes losing the most. His favorite saying is "self control". Shilow prefers individuals who are upfront in what they want to say, and dislikes it when they are ambiguous.

== Character Backstory ==
Although sometimes overly honest, Shilow is popular among his peers, both men and women alike. He’s the type that naturally attracts people around him and becomes the center of the group. Even [[Nyah]], who is strict with men, speaks frankly in front of Shilow. He is also a big cat lover and currently lives with a kitten that used to be a stray (with permission from the landlord). Shilow once tried to put the kitten on [[Celica]]'s head and it rained blood. He was met with a fist of death soon after. However, when he put it on Erika's head, she stole it from him due to how cute it was. He cried when she wouldn't return it back. Currently, he lives alone away from his parents and is struggling with an unfamiliar lifestyle. Every day he has a difficult time cooking his meals, as his only specialty dish is meat and potatoes.
Shi-low's first appearance in IIDX was on the 3rd style poster. Shi-low lives in [[wikipedia:Nakano, Tokyo|Nakano]], in Tokyo. Half Japanese, half American, he is nevertheless somewhat of a traditional Japanese man. His mother is French-American, and was a former Miss Universe; his father is a swordsman, with whom he's studied an undetermined form of iai-do. However, after a fight with his father (of the argument kind), Shi-low left home. Still, Shi-low is very disciplined, and hates people with unconcerned, vague attitudes. Shi-low also loves cats, and lives with a stray he rescued.


Shi-low started playing IIDX after the release of 2nd style. His first game ended when he failed [[Dr.LOVE]], but he can easily pass songs like [[DXY!]] and [[THE SAFARI]] now. He sees [[Yuz]] as his main opponent in the IIDX scene, but as hard as he tries he seems to always be a step behind Yuz. Their battle of wills continues to this day. Shi-low really hates losing.
== Arcadia (ROOTS26) ==
Half Japanese and American (He prefers a Japanese lifestyle). Ereki's older brother and a fan of all kinds of techno music. He's good friends with Yuz and both are passionate rivals in IIDX.  


On the outside, Shi-low seems a calm, quiet person, but he burns with an internal passion. For example, when he was into Punchmania, he would play so hard as to almost break the cabinet, and he left a nice gash in Yuz' forehead after an argument once. Aside from his continuing rivalry with Yuz and his friendship with [[Celica]], Shi-low has also known [[Erika]] for a number of years. When [[Siren]] first came to Japan, he was really taken by Shi-low's ... well, Japanese-ness, and always wanted to play against him, much to Shi-low's annoyance. He seems to be quite popular in Celica's circle of friends, popular both with the men and the women - even [[Nyah]]! Shi-low is the type that naturally becomes the center of a group of people.
While quiet on the surface, Shilow's a player with a burning passion on the inside, and among his peers he hates losing the most. He prefers people who are "assertive" rather than "passive" (Erika is exactly this type of person). While he can sometimes be overly honest, Shilow speaks to others frankly regardless of gender. Due to his bluntness, it's possible this is the reason why Nyah, who is strict with men, speaks honestly with him. Shilow is a big cat lover and lives with a kitten (Bakeneko) that used to be a stray.


== Video Appearances ==
Originally, Shilow lived alone away from his parents, but has since than moved into a larger apartment with his younger brother. His specialty dish is meat and potatoes, which he learned from Erika. However, he's not a very good cook. In fact, both brothers are not good cooks. On her days off, Erika occasionally stops by to cook meals for the two.


*[[Real]]
Due to being the eldest son, Shilow must carry on the legacy of the family name and their long history of martial arts. In regular society, he omits the use of any title with political or state connections, and instead takes on the family name "Kanzaki" as his last name. Due to familial circumstances, Shilow left his home in order to push back his succession. However Ereki, unaware of the situation, consequently left the household around the same time as he did.

Shilow knows he will soon have to abandon the "Kanzaki" name in order to prevent his brother's succession, as becoming the head of the family is too much of a heavy burden for his younger brother to inherit.
