'''{{{Kisarazu Atsushi}}}''' (<ruby><rb>Kanji</rb><rp>(</rp><rt>Kana</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby>) is a 3rd year student at [[St. Rudolph]]. He original attended [[Rokkaku]] until he was recruited for St. Rudolph by [[Mizuki Hajime]], who mistook him for his twin brother, [[Kisarazu Ryou]].

Detail the most important events the character is involved in throughout the story, including information from fan books, and how they fit together.

The information should be presented in roughly chronological order as long as this form does not impede the coherency of the text. If an event has a separate page (e.g. match pages), it is enough to link to that page and summarize the most relevant parts for the character's development rather than recounting everything.<ref>Cite your sources</ref>

===Kantou Tournament===
This is an example of a history subheading. History can go along things like Kantou Tournament, Nationals, U-17, just as an example.

===School===
====Boys====
The winter uniform is a brown blazer with the school crest on the chest, brown pants, a white long-sleeved dress shirt and a red and white striped tie. The summer uniform switches out the blazer and long-sleeved shirt for a short sleeved shirt with the school crest on the chest. Ties must be worn with the uniform at all times, and boys are required to iron their pants.<ref name="20.5pg2712">''Prince of Tennis Fanbook 20.52'', pg 271, translated by [https://holycowbrowniekitty.wordpress.com/ Holycow]</ref>

====Girls====
The winter uniform for girls is a brown blazer with the school crest on the chest, a white dress shirt, a red and white striped tie, and a knee-length brown skirt without pleats. Like the boys' uniform, the girls' summer uniform switches out the blazer and long sleeved shirt for a short-sleeved white dress shirt with the school emblem on the chest. It is a point that the hem of girls' skirts must end 3cm above the knee.<ref name="20.5pg2712" />
===Tennis Club===
====Boys====
The boys' tennis uniform consists of a jersey, a polo, warm-up pants and shorts. The jersey is a white half-zip sweater, with a thick brown stripe around the chest and arms at armpit level. On the stripe, the sleeve reads 'St. Rudolph'. The zipper has a circular pull. The polo is designed similarly to the jersey, but with short sleeves. A notable feature of the polo is it also zips at the collar. The warm-up pants and shorts are both plain brown. In the anime, the 'St. Rudolph' on the sleeves was omitted for ease of animation.

St. Rudolph is a new school founded only five years prior to the start of the series. Two years ago, they decided to focus on strengthening it's sport department, utilizing a combination of new equipment, modern theories, and recruiting talented players from other schools. Teammates work well together without divisions in the ranks, despite being a mix of original students and recruited students.<ref name="20.5pg256" />

==Uniforms==
[[File:St_Rudolph_School_Uniforms.png|200px|thumb|From left to right, boys' winter and summer uniforms, and girls' winter and summer uniforms. ]]
===School===
====Boys====
The winter uniform is a brown blazer with the school crest on the chest, brown pants, a white long-sleeved dress shirt and a red and white striped tie. The summer uniform switches out the blazer and long-sleeved shirt for a short sleeved shirt with the school crest on the chest. Ties must be worn with the uniform at all times, and boys are required to iron their pants.<ref name="20.5pg2712">''Prince of Tennis Fanbook 20.52'', pg 271, translated by [https://holycowbrowniekitty.wordpress.com/ Holycow]</ref>

====Girls====
The winter uniform for girls is a brown blazer with the school crest on the chest, a white dress shirt, a red and white striped tie, and a knee-length brown skirt without pleats. Like the boys' uniform, the girls' summer uniform switches out the blazer and long sleeved shirt for a short-sleeved white dress shirt with the school emblem on the chest. It is a point that the hem of girls' skirts must end 3cm above the knee.<ref name="20.5pg2712" />
===Tennis Club===
====Boys====
The boys' tennis uniform consists of a jersey, a polo, warm-up pants and shorts. The jersey is a white half-zip sweater, with a thick brown stripe around the chest and arms at armpit level. On the stripe, the sleeve reads 'St. Rudolph'. The zipper has a circular pull. The polo is designed similarly to the jersey, but with short sleeves. A notable feature of the polo is it also zips at the collar. The warm-up pants and shorts are both plain brown. In the anime, the 'St. Rudolph' on the sleeves was omitted for ease of animation.

==Team Stats==
Singles: 3/5
Doubles: 3/5
Benchwork: 5/5

*"Become faithful through love and truth" is the school motto<ref name="20.5pg272">''Prince of Tennis Fanbook 20.5'', pg 272, translated by [https://holycowbrowniekitty.wordpress.com/ Holycow]</ref>

'''Taira Yoshiyuki''' (<ruby><rb>平善之</rb><rp>(</rp><rt>たいらよしゆき</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby>) is a 2nd year high school student at the U-17 Training Camp. He is the former captain of [[Shitenhouji]] and considered one half of the Legendary Captains of Shitenhouji with his doubles partner, [[Hara Tetsuya]]. He is known more commonly by his nickname, Hirazen. He is ranked number 18 in the Junior All-Japan Junior Representatives.

==Appearance==
He wears a patrol cap<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrol_cap</ref> with a camouflage print and his No.18 badge pinned above the brim. Although he's not seen without his cap in the series, he appears to have an unstyled faux hawk that falls to the right and pokes out from under the cap. There's a beauty mark near his temple on the opposite side.

When he's not actively making funny faces or cracking jokes, he often has a serious expression on his face.

==Personality==
When Taira is first introduced, he looks relatively serious and has his racquet tucked behind him in his back collar. This is quickly

==History==

===Prior to the events of the main story===

'''Tezuka Kunimitsu''' (<ruby><rb>手塚国光</rb><rp>(</rp><rt>てづかくにみつ</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby>) is a 3rd year student and former tennis team captain at [[Seigaku]]. Tezuka is a nationally ranked player who devotes himself to leading Seigaku to the National Championship and developing [[Echizen Ryouma]] as a player. He struggles with elbow and later shoulder injuries throughout the series, leaving for part of the tournament season to pursue injury rehabilitation in Kyushu (manga) or Germany (anime). He is currently representing the [[German U-17]] team in the [[World Cup]].

==Appearance==
Tezuka has brown hair, brown eyes, and glasses - he is shown to have a consistent appearance in the anime, manga, and games. He usually has a stern or passive expression on his face. Despite his stoic disposition, he pops his collar on his jersey and other collared clothing he wears. In official art, he is often depicted wearing camping or fishing gear.

==Personality==
Tezuka is known for his calm and serious exterior, always advising his teammates to not be careless. He is strict toward his team, punishing all of the players for the misconduct of one, a policy he learned from former Seigaku captain [[Yamato Yuudai]]. He speaks respectfully toward his upperclassmen, coaches, and teachers, but has been shown to correct his Math teacher when they wrote an incorrect answer on the chalkboard.

Despite his reputation for being the level-headed captain of Seigaku, Tezuka is deeply passionate in his convictions and self-sacrificing when it comes to the interests of his team. In his match with [[Atobe Keigo]], he becomes focused on winning for the sake of advancing Seigaku to Nationals and continues to use techniques that further aggravate his injury, sacrificing the health of his arm for his team.

By the time he participates in the [[U-17]] camp, he has become fixated on being a "Pillar of Support" for Seigaku and displays the same attitude toward Team Japan. Yamato helps him see the danger of that way of thinking. Tezuka then is able to enter [[Teni Muhou no Kiwami]] and is free to play tennis for himself.

Though he is stern, Tezuka is tolerant to the antics of Seigaku and shows fondness to his teammates.

==History==

===Three Years Prior to the Main Story===
In his sixth year of elementary school, Tezuka met Sanada Genichirou and Yukimura Seiichi at a jr tournament. Tezuka easily beat Sanada, kicking off a rivalry that would last through junior high school. Yukimura challenged Tezuka to a match following Sanada's defeat. According to Sanada, it was an even match.

===Two Years Prior to the Main Story===
Tezuka entered Seishun Academy as a first year. His upperclassmen saw him as arrogant due to his talent and his generally stoic attitude. He was viewed even more poorly when the third years realized he had easily beaten all of them right-handed despite his left hand being his dominant hand. One of his upperclassmen hit him with a racquet in his left elbow, injuring his arm and sealing off his access to [[Muga no Kyouchi]] and [[Hyaku Ren Jitoku no Kiwami]] which required his left arm. Tezuka passionately declared that tennis should never be used for violence and attempted to quit the team. [[Yamato Yuudai]], the third year captain, insisted that Tezuka stay on declaring that he could become Seigaku's "Pillar of Support." Tezuka became a regular in his first year.

Knowing that Yamato could not accomplish his dream of Seigaku winning nationals before graduating, Tezuka made a promise with [[Ooishi Shuuichirou]] to take Seigaku to Nationals in their time at the school. [[Fuji Shuusuke]] requested a match with the recently injured Tezuka, quickly defeating him. Fuji was deeply displeased with the result and they made a promise to play again once his arm had completely healed. Tezuka convinced [[Kawamura Takashi]] that his incredible strength would help him stand out against the other players and make him a valuable member of the regulars one day.

===One Year Prior to the Main Story===
Tezuka was named the vice captain. It was originally stated that Tezuka defeated Hyoutei's captain in the Tokyo Prefectural Tournament. It was later ret-conned <ref name="PPvol1">Pair Puri Volume 1</ref> that [[Atobe Keigo]] was Hyoutei's captain in his second year and that he beat Seigaku's captain at Nationals, therefore Tezuka is assumed to have played a third year regular. He was invited to the Jr Senbatsu training camp, but had to decline due to his injury. [[Sengoku Kiyosumi]] took his place.

===Districts===
Tezuka surprised the regulars by including the first year [[Echizen Ryouma]] in the bracket for their intra-school ranking matches, who unseatd [[Inui Sadaharu]] from the starting lineup. He placed Echizen in the Singles 2 spot against [[Ibu Shinji]]. When Echizen was injured by Ibu's [[Spot]] techinique, Tezuka did not take him out of play to the surprise and upset of the other regulars, instead gave him 10 minutes to complete the match. Tezuka was the reserve player in all of the matches leading up to the match with [[Fudoumine]]. He was set to play [[Tachibana Kippei]] in the singles one spot, but the match was decided before they played.

===Prefecturals===
Tezuka is cleared to play by his doctor, [[Ooishi Akitaka]], under the stipulation that he does not repeatedly use the [[Zero-Shiki Drop Shot]] which could re-injure his elbow. Seeing the potential in [[Echizen Ryouma]], he challenged Echizen to a match. He humiliated Echizen, showing him that there is more to aim for than just defeating his father. He told Echizen to become Seigaku's "Pillar of Support."

Tezuka did not play against St. Rudolph in the semi-finals or Yamabuki in the finals due to both matches being decided prior to singles one. [[Ginka]] withdrew from the tournament, advancing Seigaku to Regionals.

===Regionals===
In intra-club matches, Tezuka placed himself in a bracket with [[Inui Sadaharu]] and [[Momoshiro Takeshi]]. They both defeated Momoshiro, leading to a match-up between Inui and Tezuka where Inui attempted to catch Tezuka wrong-footed with [[Data Tennis]]. Tezuka then revealed [[Tezuka Zone]] to Inui, urging him to grow beyond data tennis if he wanted to achieve Tezuka's level.

In Seigaku's match against [[Hyoutei]], Tezuka played [[Atobe Keigo]] in singles one. Despite the recommendations of the doctor and pleading from Ooshi, he continued to put strain on his arm for the sake of Seigaku's victory. Atobe perceived that Tezuka was favoring his left elbow, despite the fact that the injury had fully healed, and exploited that weakness to injure Tezuka's left shoulder. After a grueling tie-break, Atobe emerged victorious and Tezuka was forced to pursue treatment for his shoulder.

===Rehabilitation in Kyushu===
Tezuka left for Kyushu for rehabilitation, attending a hospital recommended to him by [[Tachibana Kippei]]. He met [[Chitose Miyuki]] who accuses him of stealing her racquet. They got mixed up with students from [[Shishigaku]] who easily defeated the injured Tezuka who could not lift his arm over shoulder height. Realizing Tezuka was injured, Miyuki stepped in and took on the Shishigaku student to defend Tezuka. Tezuka jumped back on the court to protect Miyuki from an overhead smash, realizing in so doing that his injury was long-since healed and that he had been held back by "yips."

===Nationals===
Tezuka returned in time for the Nationals brackets to be decided. Echizen also returned from America to participate in Nationals, and Tezuka welcomes him back on the regulars following his defeat of Ooishi for a regular spot.

In the second round, Tezuka played his first match back from his injury against [[Higa]]'s captain, [[Kite Eishirou]]. Though the match initially leans toward Kite, Tezuka revealed that [[Muga no Kyouchi]] and [[Hyaku Ren Jitoku no Kiwami]] were no longer sealed and overwhelmed Kite. He chastised Kite for his use of violence to get an upper hand in a tennis match. Echizen was astonished by the growth Tezuka has had since he left for rehabilitation and declared that he will take the mantle of "Pillar of Support" from Tezuka.

In the third round, Tezuka played [[Kabaji Munehirou]] of [[Hyoutei]]. Kabaji revealed that he is able to be a play as a perfect copy of Tezuka and he quickly caught up each time Tezuka gained an advantage. When it begins to rain, Tezuka's superior technique gave him the upper hand and he defeted Kabaji 7-6.

In quarter-finals, Tezuka played doubles with [[Inui Sadaharu]] against [[Shitenhouji]]'s [[Chitose Senri]] and [[Zaizen Hikaru]]. Inui and Zaizen bowed out of the match so that Tezuka and Chitose could both enter Muga no Kyouchi. Chitose took an early lead using [[Saiki Kanpatsu no Kiwami]], but Tezuka unveiled his new serve, the [[Zero-Shiki Serve]]. He also entered Saiki Kanpatsu no Kiwami, but his predictions were more accurate than Chitose's. He beat Chitose abysmally, 6-1. Chitose begged Tezuka for a picture to send to his sister Miyuki back in Kyushu, but Tezuka pointedly refused.

Before their match with Rikkai, Tezuka revealed to Ooishi that he had been offered the opportunity to pursue professional tennis in Germany and he intended to leave at the end of the school year. In finals against [[Rikkai]], Tezuka was matched against [[Sanada Genichirou]] in singles two. Tezuka revealed a new technique developed at Echizen's suggestion, [[Tezuka Phantom]]. He used the technique to combat Sanada's [[Fuu Rin Ka Zan]]. The long match took a physical toll on both of them, Tezuka's arm aggravated from the repeated use of heavy spin and Sanada's knees from the use of his [[Rai]] ability. Sanada emerged victorious, settling the score from four years prior.

===Under 17 Camp===
The day before he left for the U-17 camp, Tezuka and his grandfather went fishing, much to the ire of [[Sanada Genechirou]] and [[Sanada Genemon]]. Tezuka's grandfather had a scheduled board game against Sanada's grandfather, but Tezuka's grandfather decided to skip it to go fishing with his grandson. While fishing, both Tezuka and his grandfather received angry text messages from each other's respective rivals that read "TEZUKAAAAAA!!" Tezuka used a new lure that has Ooishi's likeness that was given to him by Ooishi as a birthday gift.

Tezuka is placed in an 7-point tie-break elimination match against [[Kaidou Kaoru]], drawing out the fighting spirit that had led Tezuka to choose Kaidou as the next captain of Seigaku. He defeated Kaidou 7-0, earning a spot at the winners camp.

During the team shuffle match against court 3, Tezuka played in the singles two slot against his former captain, [[Yamato Yuudai]]. Despite the fact that Yamato's appearance had drastically changed, Tezuka instantly recognized him. In order to combat Yamato's [[Genu Yume Utsutsu]], Tezuka relied on Tezuka Phantom. Yamato lamented that he had driven Tezuka to feel he had to be the "Pillar of Support." Yamato explained that Tezuka has just transferred what he was doing for Seigaku to Team Japan. Yamato revealed that the injuries he had when he played Tezuka in Tezuka's first year of jr high left him with massive scars on his arm and put him through a horribly painful rehabilitation process. He encouraged Tezuka to play tennis for himself and let go of his recklessness in the name of his team. With Yamato's blessing, Tezuka was able to let go of his mantle of "Pillar of Support" and enterd [[Teni Muhou no Kiwami]], defeating Yamato.

Tezuka made the decision to leave the camp early to pursue the opportunity in Germany. [[Fuji Shuusuke]] stopped him to play a match. Fuji was unable to compete with Tezuka at his full strength and was overwhelmed when Tezuka enters Teni Muhou no Kiwami. Tezuka put an end to the match, catching the ball mid-rally and saying he will not play with Fuji as he is now.

===World Cup===
Tezuka was shown training at the Tennis Association of Germany with the German U-17 team prior to the World Cup matches beginning. He played a practice match with team captain and professional tennis player [[Jürgen Borisovich Volk]] who completely overpowered Tezuka even after entering Teni Muhou no Kiwami. He instructed Tezuka to train his lower body to improve his stamina in long matches. [[Siegmund Pupke]] approached Volk after the match to tell him he wished to sign Tezuka for a pro contract, but Volk insisted that Tezuka did not have the experience needed and that he should be re-evaluated after the World Cup.

Tezuka played in round one of the World Cup Japan vs Germany in doubles with [[Q.P.]] versus [[Atobe Keigo]] and [[Irie Kanata]]. The Japanese team jeered him for being an "unpatriotic traitor." Despite Tezuka attempting to instill fight in Atobe, they easily won 6-0.

Tezuka played singles vs South Africa versus [[Siyabonga Ngoepe]].

===Anime only arcs===
====Rehabilitation in Germany====
In the anime, Tezuka went to a rehabilitation facility in Germany instead of Kyushu following the match against [[Hyoutei]] in the regional tournament. Before he left for Germany, he played a match against [[Echizen Ryouma]] with his right hand. Though the match was close, Tezuka developed [[Tezuka Zone]] right handed (anime only) and ended the match with a right handed [[Zero Shiki Drop Shot]] (anime only). He encouraged Echizen to also become more adaptable as a player and left for Germany. During his time there, he was visited by [[Seigaku]]. Echizen met and played tennis with Tezuka's trainer, [[Hannah Essenheimer]] prompting her return to pro tennis.

====Jr Senbatsu Camp====
In the anime-only Jr Senbatsu arc, the camp was down one coach after [[Ryuuzaki Sumire]] collapsed and was taken to the hospital. Tezuka returned from Germany to step in as a coach in her stead, though he initially met opposition from [[Kajimoto Takahisa]] who rallied the rest of the team to request that Tezuka prove himself to the players he was coaching. Once he defeated each of them easily, despite his injury, they agreed to follow him.

Tezuka sat as a bench coach during the matches against the American team.

====Pre-Nationals Return to Seigaku====
The final arc of the original anime featured Tezuka's return to Seigaku prior to Nationals. He played a match with [[Fuji Shuusuke]] to draw out his potential as a player and deliver on their promise from first year. He ended the match with a right-handed [[Zero-Shiki Drop Shot]].

Echizen also returned from the US so that they can play one final match. He felt like he was not able to play in the Jr US Open with a clear mind until he faced Tezuka. Echizen defeated Tezuka after a long, close match and Seigaku joined Tezuka in wishing Echizen well in the Jr US Open.

==Tennis==
===Playstyle===
Tezuka is an all-rounder who specializes in technique and finesse. Most of his skills are developed around controlling the pace of the match and applying advantageous spin to his shots. Due to the strain placed on his left arm from many of his techniques, his abilities are not meant to be used for prolonged periods of time.

====[[Zero-Shiki Drop Shot]]====
A slice drop volley with heavy backspin. Once the ball hits the ground, it rolls back to the net due to the heavy backspin on the ball. In the anime, Tezuka is shown to only hit this volley with his backhand, but in the manga he hits both backhand and forehand. In the anime, he can hit the shot with his right hand as well, developed during his injury recovery. When he hits the Zero-Shiki Drop Shot, his form is very similar to a regular slice backhand volley which makes it difficult to determine which shot he will hit. This sets him apart from other users of the move such as [[Echizen Ryouma]].

====[[Tezuka Zone]]====
Tezuka controls the pace of the match by applying overwhelming spin on the ball. Every ball that he hits over the net returns to him regardless of how his opponent hits the ball. He is able to conserve energy by pivoting on one foot rather than running after every ball.

====[[Zero-Shiki Serve]]====
A slice serve with heavy backspin. Once the ball hits the ground, it rolls back to the net due to the heavy backspin on the ball.

====[[Tezuka Phantom]]====
Like Tezuka Zone, Tezuka uses this ability to control the pace of the match by applying overwhelming spin on the ball. However, every ball that is returned is forced out by the spin on the ball.

====[[Muga no Kyouchi]]====
The user plays unconsciously and moves based on their prior experiences. As a result, the opponent cannot predict which shot comes next. The user's performance level also increases. However, using Muga drains stamina much quicker than normal and its unpredictable movements may be ineffective against high-level opponents.

====[[Hyaku Ren Jitoku no Kiwami]]====
Tezuka concentrates Muga's energy into his left arm to return shots with double the power and spin. It also minimizes fatigue. However, since Muga's energy no longer extends to the rest of the body, it is best used in combination with a move like Tezuka Zone.

====[[Saiki Kanpatsu no Kiwami]]====
By concentrating Muga's energy into the brain, the user simulates all possible scenarios for the next point. This allows the user to determine the minimum number of shots necessary to win the point and create an "absolute prediction."

====[[Teni Muhou no Kiwami]]====
Teni Muhou is achieved by transcending the desire for victory and fear of defeat and play tennis for its own sake. When in this state, Muga's energy is amplified and explodes without waste in the right place at the right time.

'''Kurobe's Memo:'''

As a first-class athlete, he has an overwhelming presence and stands out among the middle schoolers. Despite his already high abilities and large moveset, his will to improve is as strong as ever. There are high hopes for his future growth. His wooden facial expression is his single flaw.<ref>Golden age 37</ref>

===Stats===

{{Stat Table

|Speed=4.5

|Stamina=4

'''Speed - 4.5:''' He has the speed of a top class athlete, but he is unable to travel at unbelievable speeds.

'''Power - 4:''' When he activates Hyakuren Jitoku no Kiwami, he is able to exhibit astounding power. However, his own playstyle is not very powerful.

'''Stamina - 4:''' Because he strictly regulates himself, the stamina of his cardio vascular system is not a problem. However, in a drawn out match, parts of his body will tend to scream out. The only thing he needs to do is work on the stamina of his burdened elbow.

'''Mental - 5:''' He is the type that can sacrifice his body nonchalantly. Once he conquered his yips, he acquired a steel will.

'''Technique - 6:''' With things like his Zero-Shiki shots and Tezuka Zone, he stands above the rest with skills that can send his opponents into despair.

'''Kurobe's Memo:'''

Of course, I had intended to have him flourish within the 1st String, however it can't be helped since he withdrew from the camp. It'll only be a matter of time for him to reach the top level of the pros.<ref>''New Prince of Tennis Fanbook 10.5'', pg 64, translated by [https://mangahelpers.com/forum/members/sai.10576/ Sai]</ref>

: "You have green tea? That Japanese guy, he dissolved strange green powder in water and drank it. I tasted it just out of curiosity, but… it was pretty good.”

===Relationships===
; Echizen Ryouma
: Tezuka is a mentor and rival to Echizen, initially seeing him as the future of Seigaku's tennis club and asking him to take over as the "Pillar of Support" for Seigaku. He serves as one of the primary points of motivation for Ryoma's improvement throughout the series.
; Kaidou Kaoru
: Kaidou is Tezuka's successor on the tennis team as the future captain. He has been developing Kaidou through the role by quietly pushing him to his limits throughout the season. At the U-17 camp, he plays a 7-point match with Kaidou where he deliberately draws out every point to test the limits of Kaidou's stamina and resolve. Satisfied with Kaidou's growth, he defeats him 7-0.
; Oishi Syuchirou
: In their first year of junior high school, Oishi and Tezuka made a promise to one another to take their team to Nationals to fulfill the goal that Yamato was not able to complete in his time as captain. Oishi is vice captain of the club and takes on Tezuka's responsibilities during his injury.
; Fuji Shuusuke
: Fuji has seen Tezuka as his ultimate goal, the person he wants to overcome, through most of the series. Tezuka continues to push Fuji to improve and in turn, Fuji continues to evolve. As of the World Cup match against Germany, Fuji has developed a new offensive play style with hopes of overcoming Tezuka.
; Atobe Keigo
: The match with Tezuka leaves Atobe shaken. Though Atobe wins the match, he ultimately feels like he lost in a contest of wills against Tezuka. When Tezuka leaves for Germany during U-17, Atobe tells him to leave Team Japan to him. Atobe and Niou play doubles together with Niou playing in his Tezuka illusion, a pair called the "Strongest Pair."
; Sanada Genichirou
: Tezuka and Sanada's grandfathers are long-time friends from their police academy days. Sanada first met Tezuka on the tennis court before junior high and was utterly defeated by him. He holds out a sense of rivalry, sealing away his "Rai" ability until he could use it to defeat Tezuka in Nationals.
; Yamato Yuudai
: Yamato encourages Tezuka in his first year to not give up the tennis club, instead insisting he become Seigaku's "Pillar of Support." He later comes to regret this, realizing Tezuka has become fixated on his role and no longer plays tennis for himself. In their match at the U-17 camp, Yamato frees Tezuka of this way of thinking and helps him to unlock Teni Muho no Kiwami.
; Chitose Miyuki
: Miyuki meets Tezuka while he is in his rehabilitation in Kyushu. She helps him realize that his injury is fully healed and that he is still held back by the "yips." She develops a crush on him and asks her brother to get pictures of him.

:There's never a completely free day...but I would read a book in my room. Sometimes, I might go fishing with my grandfather.

;When were your special skills useful?
:I have never been troubled by my racket rack. It's hard to find something that fits perfectly.

'''Yamato Yuudai''' (<ruby><rb>大和祐大</rb><rp>(</rp><rt>やまとゆうだい</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby>) is a 2nd year high school student and the former captain of [[Seigaku]]'s tennis club.

==Appearance==
Yamato as seen in flashbacks had straight, black hair. He always wore a white sweatband on his head and a pair of dark, round sunglasses. In New Prince of Tennis, it is revealed that he has undergone an incredible transformation. His hair is now dyed blonde, grown long, and permed. He has a "v" shaped scar on his cheek and a large surgical scar on his right arm. When asked about his new look, he said he did it to be hot.<ref name="NPoT 23.5">New Prince of Tennis Fanbook 23.5</ref>

==Personality==
Yamato is calm, wise beyond his years, and soft-spoken. He is a natural leader looking to develop the future players of Seigaku. He has previously been self-sacrificing with his body, not allowing his body to fully heal before pushing himself on the court, and paid for it with surgeries and physical therapy. He has come to realize that tennis should be played for one's own benefit and betterment rather than destroying one's self for the team.

He is strict with the other members of the team. When [[Tezuka Kunimitsu]] was attacked by an upperclassman, Yamato punished all members of the tennis club equally, including Tezuka, to impart upon the team that they are in it together.

==History==

===Prior to the events of the main story===
Describe character history here.<ref>Cite specific chapters or episodes at your discretion</ref> This should cover all of the events of the manga.

===Use subheadings===
You should also [[link to match pages]] (templates coming soon) when applicable. It's enough to say here like "Sengoku lost to Kamio" while linking to the relevant match page instead of going into more detail.

==Anime only arcs==
Continuing with the Sengoku example, you would put descriptions of his foray into boxing and his rematch with Momoshiro in this section rather than "history." This should also briefly recap differences in important matches.

==Play Style==
Yamato controls the pace of the match so that he can progress the match to his advantage. This allows him to compensate for his physical disadvantages. His skill earned him a spot on the third court despite his below-average stats.

===Fanbook X0.5 Information<ref>''(New) Prince of Tennis Fanbook X0.5'', pg 000, translated by [https://mangahelpers.com/forum/members/sai.10576/ Sai]</ref>===

|[[file:Yamato Yuudai 10.5 Stats.jpg]]
|}

'''Speed - 2:''' His reaction time and explosive powers are somewhat on the lower end, but he makes up for it by outsmarting his opponent and using his superior battle tactics to assist his low speed.

'''Power - 2:''' Due to previous injury, his power is weak. He will need to go through more strength conditioning to prevent his old injury from flaring up.

'''Stamina - 2:''' He isn't fit for long periods of play. However, to prevent himself from tiring, he works to waste his opponent's stamina by becoming 'bratty' and hastening the progress of the match to his own favor.

'''Mental - 2:''' He possesses a wide field of vision. However, his weakness is that he looks at his own power too objectively. When he has to face an opponent of higher rank, his tenacity wanes during the bout.

'''Technique - 2:''' He hits a special shot where just before he strikes the ball, he changes its trajectory. It has a high degree of difficulty.

'''Kurobe's Memo:''' After the 5th Court Shuffle Match, It seemed like Yamato was going to retire. Even though his calm, discerning insight showed him that his body was nearing his limit, due to the forethought shown to his juniors and the fact that he seems like a coach already even though he's only a high schooler, he was recommended to attend the camp Leadership Program.

<div style="clear: both;"></div>

===[[Genu Yume Utsutsu]]===
Yamato changes the trajectory of the shot just before striking the ball. The opponent, naturally predicting the course of the ball, will swing at the "phantom ball."

==Trivia==
* [[Yagyuu Hiroshi]] and [[Mizuki Hajime]] infer that Yamato lives alone since he folds laundry well, spoke about eating instant ramen, and carries keys. <ref name="PP Vol8">Pair Puri Volume 8</ref>
* He claims his drastic image change was so he would look hot.<ref name="NPoT 23.5"></ref> Previously, it was stated that only the Seigaku Regulars knew the reason why.<ref name="NPoT 10.5"></ref>
* The racquet he uses is extremely light and has an oversized head which would normally be used by senior players. The racquet generates most of the power from the stroke due to the size of the racquet head, so it probably is meant to help him make up for his low stats and returning from an injury.
* He ranked 14th for the character that readers would most like to see in a kimono. <ref name="PP Vol8"></ref>
* He wears [http://www.menicon.com/corporate/menicon-worldwide/ Menicon] contacts.<ref name="NPoT 10.5">New Prince of Tennis Fanbook 10.5</ref>
