'''Sho''' is a secondary character in [[Puyo Wars]] and a major protagonist in [[Compile Worlds]]. He aids [[Daichi]] and [[Marin]] in defeating the evil [[Angol Mois]], and debuted in {{Episode|33}} to stop Angol's revived plans in [[Primp]] as well. His [[DNA]] was used by [[Ekoro]] to create an [[Alpha|impostor]] that would go on to start the events of [[Pre-Meteor Arc#Ekoro_Arc|the Ekoro Arc]].

'''Sho''' is [[one]] of the [[three]] main characters from the really obscure strategy game [[Puyo Puyo Gaiden! Puyo Wars]]. In this game, he seems to be a friend of [[Daichi]] and [[Marin]], and fights them using [[Tectar]]s that use [[Puyo]] as their [[energy source]]. The Tectar that represents him in the game's opening and promotional media resembles a giant [[duck]], bringing into question his [[tactic]]s.

More notable than his game appearance is his appearance in [[Subete PuyoPuyo]], taking on a vastly larger role than he ever could have in his only official appearance. Sho, unlike some of the other protagonists, exhibits great emotional (over)reaction to situations, such as [[dance|dancing]] around like a [[moron]] in [[joy]] when he was released from his [[cage]], or trembling in fear at the sight of [[Eltia]] walking and talking. He also demonstrates reasoning and intellect; he is capable of rebuilding [[Ekoro's clones]] and has a vast knowledge about robotics in general thanks to his background in it. He lived in the [[Madou World]] prior to being taken to [[Primp]], where he vaguely recalled running into [[Witch]] and [[Arle Nadja]]. In later episodes, Sho was shown to have a tendency to babble continuously for several lines without rest, a trait thought by Draco to be obtained by being Ekoro's little bitch. However, Sho dismissed that, claiming he was already like that prior to this alleged kidnapping.

Prior to and during the events of the ''Ekoro arc'', Sho was kidnapped from the Madou World by [[Ekoro]] and [[blackmail|threatened into building]] the [[laboratory]] of his [[Mountain Base]] and several of the clones therein. Most notably, Sho worked in tangent with Ekoro to create [[Phi]], a clone of [[Lagnus the Brave]] destined to be ''Project Perfect Light''. Despite his hard work, and Phi's successful development as a clone with [[artificial intelligence|free will AI]], Ekoro destroyed him and responded by locking Sho in a cage in [[Fos Canyon]] and working on [[Zeta]] by himself. It can be presumed that Ekoro may have locked Sho away because he feared his involvement made them susceptible to neutralization or having more friendly and moral personalities.

He followed the party to the [[Temple of the Wastelands]] to deliver [[Strange Klug]] the [[AVI]] disc Phi had recorded, and then back to [[Puyopolis]], where he settled into the remaining underground chambers of the [[ADMA]] Headquarters and began rebuilding Phi.

Sho is a secondary character in Puyo Wars and a major protagonist in Compile Worlds. He aids Daichi and Marin in defeating the evil Angol Mois, and debuted in Episode 33 to stop Angol's revived plans in Primp as well. His DNA was used by Ekoro to create an impostor that would go on to start the events of the Ekoro Arc.

Biography

Sho's first life was that of a blue puyo. Unlike Marin though, his life as a puyo and cause of death are unknown, and were not explored in Puyo Wars. He reincarnated as a human in the Puyo Wars World, where he met Marin and constructed a protector to ride, shaped like a duck, interestingly enough. Later on, he and Marin confront Daichi to test his might, and he states that Daichi would never equal Angol. Sho left, and didn't appear again until Daichi lost control of his synthetic form and rampaged about, prompting Sho to take action. After learning of Daichi and Angol's common origin and dragging the goddess Eldora into the mess, Sho helped Daichi defeat Angol, resulting in his banishment to the Abyss.

Translations suggest that Sho is a Tsundere, though this has yet to be confirmed. There are also numerous jokes(?) in the dialogue suggesting he could be in love with Daichi.

Etymology

Sho is a common given name in Japan. It means "To soar" or "Flying". This puns with Daichi and Marin's names, who relate to the land and sea respectively. (Sure is Kingdom Hearts in here)
