Aoi Kentarou (
Appearance
Aoi appears to have a buzzcut and black hair. His eye color is brown in the manga and games, but in the anime it's greyish to blue. Noticeably, in the anime, Aoi is drawn much taller as opposed to his teammates than in the manga. He also appears to have more muscle definition.
Personality
Aoi seems like he can’t stay calm and gets carried away easily because of his energetic behaviour, but actually he’s a patient and hardworking guy who knows how to take responsibility for his team.
He is good at complimenting others and making friends, but secretly believes that he's the best, although this side doesn't come out often. He tends to overestimate himself, because of that hidden pride, which led to his defeat by Kaidou Kaoru eventually.
He is shown to not be ambitious or conceited but genuinely curious when it comes to wanting to beat strong opponents.
Aoi has also been called a pressure junkie [3] in reference to his tendency to let his mental pressure build up so he can concentrate better and in general perform better. This part isn't only restricted to tennis, it also shows in various other activities, like grilling yakiniku and gathering clams.
Another aspect of his personality is his longing to become popular, mostly with girls. He seems to be unsuccessful though. [4]
History
Prior to the events of the main story
When he was in his last year of Rokkaku 1st Elementary School, Ojii accidentally elected him as the next captain of Rokkaku Middle School's tennis club instead of Saeki Kojirou (implied).
Kantou Tournament
Aoi first appears intruding on Saeki's and Fuji Shuusuke's meetup right before Seigaku's match vs Rokkaku in the semi-finals of the Kantou tournament. He is seen cheering on and commenting on the matches before his, namely D1 and D2.
In singles 3, Aoi got Kaidou as an opponent. While he seems to lose at first, dropping 4 games, he quickly makes a comeback with his pressure tennis style and manages to turn the tables, before ultimately losing 7-5 after running out of stamina.
Aoi is next shown attending the award ceremony, where it's seen that Rokkaku lost to Fudoumine. It is unknown if Aoi lost his match.
Aoi later appears during Seigaku's Training camp at Chiba. In the volleyball tournament, he teams up with Echizen Ryouma and smashes his way through until the finals, which were eventually disbanded because of Inui juice zombies.
Nationals
In the nationals, he leads Rokkaku in singles 3 against Chinen Hiroshi. Despite being confident in his abilities, he ends up losing because of Chinen's arm reach and Shukuchiho. He joins his fellow members when they rush Ojii to the hospital after Kai Yuujirou's attack.
He is seen cheering on Seigaku vs Shitenhouji and Rikkai.
He also appears during the Yakiniku battle, where he disqualified early after drinking Iwashimizu.
Post Nationals
Aoi is shown sending a message in a bottle to Kurobane Harukaze and Amane Hikaru at the camp. He realizes that they probably won't arrive because the U17 camp takes place in the mountains.
Anime only arcs
Aoi appear first after he mistook Echizen helping Ojii for bullying an old man. When the mistake was cleared up, he invited them to go to Rokkaku's school grounds, where they fraternized.
While Aoi's position remains the same as singles 3, he instead plays Echizen instead of Kaidou. His playstyle is changed to the point that he can hit accurately at one corner, and his racket has hexagonal strings which gives him more power. Nevertheless, he still lost. In the anime he is shown to be a very loud person, as Echizen remarked.
Playstyle
Aoi is an aggressive baseliner, whose tactic relies on losing the first points on purpose, so he can make a comeback under the pressure. His pressure playstyle allows him to draw upon his 'hidden strength'. Due to his shortness, he's bad at the net, as was focused on in 'Higa vs Rokkaku'.
Cord Ball
Aoi's signature move is the cordball, which he can hit when he's under extreme pressure. He hits it from the baseline and as it skims the net, it usually drops before the opponent can react.
