Appearance
Satoru is a young man with reddish orange hair and green eyes. In Season 6 and 7 he wears a violet trench coat with white trousers and grey shoes. In Season 8 he wears a purple jacket attached to a white sleeveless trench coat with blue jeans and brown shoes. After the first stage of U20 he wears a white shirt and a purple sleeveless jacket with brown trousers and shoes.
Personality
Satoru usually keeps a stoic expression and acts politely most of the time. He feels strong guilt due to the girl he befriended at the hospital dying while he survived, thus he took his position as a Company member very seriously, only to change his mind and realize that Ryuzu's perfect future was only an illusion and not true salvation.
After the events at the Stride Gate Satoru felt the need to undo his past mistakes. In more public and casual environments he tends to feel confused and come off awkward.
History
G Season 2
Satoru Enishi was first seen at the Dark Zone G Quest, where he was introduced as the Dark Zone Branch Chief. Satoru then proceeded to explain the rules of the Dark Zone G-Quest to Team TRY3 and RUMMY LABYRINTH before seeing them off. When both Chrono Shindou and Luna Yumizuki reached the tower summit, Satoru announced them as the two finalists for the G Quest and told everyone to cease their cardfights and return to the lobby. He then announced that the winner of Dark Zone G Quest would be decided through a cardfight between Chrono and Luna. After Chrono defeated Luna, Satoru announced that thanks to Chrono, Team TRY3 had won the Dark Zone G Quest.
G Season 3
After Team TRY3 won the quest, Satoru appeared with the other members of Company and challenged Tokoha Anjou to a fight. When she asked about Luna and Am Chouno, he told her that was none of her business and ignored her questions when she continued to demand about Am and Luna, and the fight ended in no result. Sometime later, Am asked him to let Luna continue as an idol and to not have her be involved in company's plans in which he agreed to.
He was later invited by Mamoru Anjou to a meeting at Dragon Empire branch along with other branch chief but didn't attend the meeting as he supported Ryuzu Myoujin's ideals. He later challenged Mamoru to a fight in which he lost.
When Am attempted to free Luna, Satoru caught her and challenged her to a fight. He told her that Luna's sacrifice is necessary to save her parents and that Luna was only in a comatose state because of her desire to make Am's happiness come true. However, she rejects it and after he defeats her he told her about his past, how he suffered a rare disease in which he had 50% chance of dying and when he befriended a girl who suffers the same illness as him but unfortunately she died before the cure for the medicine was found. He then fired Am from the company.
During Company's battle against TRY 3 he promised to his deceased friend that he will win and bring the future she desires. He was later confronted by Tokoha who challenged him to a fight in which he accepted. Satoru told her that the Company's desire is to bring the future where everyone will live happily with no pain and suffering in which he believed. Tokoha criticizes that idea, saying that pain and suffering will never disappear and they didn't desire the perfect future even if the future is filled with pain and suffering, and that they don't mind having that since it is a common part in life. Satoru came to agree with her and Try 3's ideal and noticed how much stronger they have become as she defeats him.
2 months after Chrono defeated Ryuzu, he told Ibuki that he has resigned his position as a Branch Chief in Dark Zone branch and wanted to experience a normal life instead, which Ibuki agreed to. He was later invited to take part in a tournament at Card Capital 2. At first he felt reluctant to go due to his guilt for his past actions. When he was about to leave he was then comforted by Luna and Am and Luna asked him if he was participating. Satoru said no but Jaime Alcaraz dragged him into the shop to participate and Satoru helped Kamui Katsuragi and the other participants to arrange the tournament. When Chrono arrived in Card Capital 2 he and the other participants warmly welcomed him and he was seen facing against Luna; it is currently unknown who won.
G Season 4 (G NEXT)
Satoru would quit his job as the Dark Irregular Clan Leader and was offered a position at the Dragon Empire Branch by Mamoru to help him bring life back to Vanguard and show how fun it could be. Despite this, he was still unsure if he was doing well and felt he wasn't atoning for his deeds. Before he knew it, he was invited by Tokoha to join her team for the U20 tournament.
During the tournament, he ended up battling Kamui from Team Heaven and Hell. In spite of Kamui's great skills and tactics, Satoru defeats Kamui and sends him to the drop zone, rescuing his team before they got eliminated.
He was later reinstated as the Dark Zone Branch Chief.
