Nakagauchi shows up at the U-17 camp as part of the 3rd Court, and he makes an immediate impression—his team steamrolls the 4th Court without much trouble. He's positioned in Singles 3, where he gets matched up against Liliadent Krauser.
He's got a noticeable chip on his shoulder about Oni not participating in the Team Shuffle. Nakagauchi really wanted to face him and get some payback, so he's vocal about his disappointment. When he finally takes on Krauser during the 3rd vs. 5th Court shuffle, things get messy. Nakagauchi dominates for most of the match, but Krauser manages to mount a comeback using his Southern Cross technique—which hits hard enough to seriously rough up Nakagauchi before the match ends.
One thing fans often note is his weird movement style on court. He basically glides around like some kind of robot, which gives him an odd presence during matches.
