The Kantou Tournament - Hyoutei Arc is the 8th arc in The Prince of Tennis, and the 1st arc of the Kantou Tournament. It covers episodes 55-67 of the anime and chapters 122-159 of the manga. Seigaku faces Hyoutei in the Kantou Regional Tournament's first round.

Synopsis

Prior to the matches

These descriptions should be more detailed than the two sentence summaries in the Episode Guide and Chapter Guide.

Doubles 2

Ooishi Shuuichirou is unable to play due to a sudden injury and Momoshiro Takeshi takes his place to play with Kikumaru Eiji. They began the match and are seemingly outmatched by Hyoutei's Oshitari Yuushi and Mukahi Gakuto, an established doubles pair. Oshitari is a trickster to rival Momoshiro and Mukahi's acrobatic tennis is a level above Kikumaru's. The games are in Hyoutei's favor as the match reaches 4 - 0. However, Mukahi tires out from jumping so much, and Kikumaru takes over Oishi's usual role as support, letting Momoshiro jump. Oishi then appears to cheer them on. The tides turn suddenly and Kikumaru and Momoshiro achieve victory in the first match.

Doubles 1

Following Seigaku's victory, Shishido Ryou calls for the Hyoutei Cheer again, changing the atmosphere. He has come back from his defeat and expulsion from Hyoutei's regulars to play doubles with Ootori Choutarou. Meanwhile, Inui Sadaharu and Kaidou Kaoru are also a new doubles pair, formed by Inui's suggestion so that Kaidou can use his Boomerang Snake, which at the time he could only land in the doubles court.

Inui and Kaidou are immediately overwhelmed by Ootori's Scud Serve, a super fast serve they are unable to process, much less return. Later in the match they manage to take advantage of Ootori's control problems with his serve, but despite Inui's data gathering and Kaidou's sheer determination, Shishido and Ootori take the victory. This is in part because Inui informs the referee that he has made an incorrect call (in Seigaku's favor), restarting the point. Although it is not match point, it could have extended the match and given Inui more time to use the data he gathers in the first half of the match.

Differences between the anime and manga

Out of all the anime's Kantou Tournament arcs, Hyoutei vs. Seigaku is by far the most loyal to the manga.
