History
Born in an apocalyptic world, Shin used to be leader of team of robbers that traveled between worlds to plunder dungeons. However, at some point of his life, he was summoned by Lillia and joined the Seven Catastrophes.

Some time after his summoning, he went a mission to find Gilthunder in order to use the Holy Knight's electric powers to charge a mobile device that came with him from his original world. During his mission, Roxy following him and the favor exchanges ended turning into a battle because Roxy was being hunted by the Holy Knights after the massacre she caused inOrdan Viallge. At the meantime, Shin personally meets the captain of the Seven Deadly Sins, Meliodas, who came to aid Gil, Howzer and Griamore after sensing the emanated magic over the area. Shin then requests the Dragon Sin to battle him to fulfill his curiosity towards his enemies' leader. After his battle with the demon, the Catastrophe is evacuated from the area with the aid of Valenti's experimental escape device.

A certain time after these events, Shin eventually became friends with Gilthunder and asked the Holy Knight to use his electric powers to charge the tablet that came with him from his original world for Valenti's research. However, Gilthunder ends exaggerating and overcharging it. Later, now reunited with Mono and Roxy, the latter offers Shin her help to fix the tablet using magic, however, due to Roxy's inexperince on spells' casting, she ends summoning Kyo Kusanagi, Mai Shiranui and Athena Asamiya from the King of Fighter '98 installed on it.

After failed a attempt to send the video game characters back with a battle, Shin asks for Lilia's aid and is informed that something is imprisioning them on Britannia, which is later revelead to be Omega Rugal, who invaded Britannia due to the time-space distortion of Roxy's summoning and has organized a fight festival subordinating Taizoo. Shin, then, with the fellow Disasters, Kyo, Mai and Athena arrives on a newly reformed Vaizel, encounters the Seven Deadly Sins and, along with Meliodas, seals a pact between the Sins and the Disasters to help sending back the video game characters to their original world.

While Eastin, Valenti and Camila represents the Seven Disasters at the Fight Festival, Shin, Hawk and Merlin remain investigating the mind behind the fight festival and Taizoo's personality twist and discovers about Rugal's plan on using the festival as an excuse to absorb magic and be powerful enough to conquer and destroy the world.

After witnessing Valenty unleash the powers of her upgraded MK-II Weapon, Shin asks the Catastrophe of Obsession help to create a new weapon for himself.

Abilities and Equipment
Shin hadn't demonstrated to possess any supernatural abilities so far, thus relying on modern equipment designed by Valenti to fight, such as minidrones and a Satelite Cannon to fire energy blasts towards his enemies. However, such weaponary is shown to be powerful enough to easily surpass the power of high-ranked Holy Knights such as Gilthunder, Howzer and Griamore.

Lillia
Despite considering her one of his friends, Shin appears to have trust issues with Lilia, as he noticed that the mage remain keeping secrets from the team.

Valent i

On the other hand, Shin can also get upset with Roxy whenever she insists to piss him off stealing his things or making fun of something he's afraid of.

Camila
Shin and Camila appears to be on good terms with each other. However, Shin used to treat her much more politely and respectfully than his fellow teammates due to her title as a goddess on her original world, something Camila scolds him to not do it anymore, as her status as a deity is now in the past.
