Journalist at Monthly Pro Tennis
Inoue works as a journalist for Monthly Pro Tennis, where he and his assistant Saori Shiba handle coverage of the junior high tournament circuit. It's basically their beat, and they take it seriously.
His all-time favorite player is Nanjirō Echizen—the legendary Samurai. What's kind of cool is that Inoue actually got to play against him once. He got absolutely demolished, but he still talks about it with genuine gratitude. For a journalist, getting that kind of direct experience with your hero is pretty unforgettable, even if the match itself wasn't competitive.
