Description

Takashi “Taka” Momoshiro battles the mysterious Kabaji of Hyotei Academy. Taka unleashes a brutal two-handed “Hadokyu” (wave surge shot), which Kabaji dishes right back. Unbeknownst to Taka, Kabaji's special talent is being able to mimic shots with accuracy and ease. Meanwhile, Sadaharu's honesty and keen eye for detail doesn't save the day for Seishun when he volunteers that his winning smash was actually out. Can Seishun Academy afford another loss?

Author Biography

A member of the tennis club in junior and senior high-school, Konomi submitted his work to Weekly Shonen Jump after graduation from university and was debuted in a special edition of the magazine in 1993 with TETSUJIN SEKAI ICHI KATAI OTOKO. In 1997, his COOL ~ RENTAL BODYGUARD manga became serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump, followed by THE PRINCE OF TENNIS in 1992. Because of THE PRINCE OF TENNIS, the number of children in Japan who have taken up tennis as a sport has increased exponentially, and the tennis club has become one of the more popular school clubs in junior high today, creating a huge boom for the game. An anime version of THE PRINCE OF TENNIS was created in 2001, and is still going strong.

Author Biography:

Takeshi Konomi exploded onto the manga scene with the incredible The Prince of Tennis. His refined art style and sleek character designs proved popular with Weekly Shonen Jump readers, and The Prince of Tennis became the number one sports manga in Japan almost overnight. Its cast of fascinating male tennis players attracted legions of female readers even though it was originally intended to be a boys' comic. The manga continues to be a success in Japan and has inspired a hit anime series, as well as several video games and mountains of merchandise.
