St. Rudolph Gakurin 3-4, seat 1
Dominant Hand: Right
Akazawa Yoshirou is St. Rudolph's team captain and a genuinely strong singles player—the kind of talent-heavy all-rounder type who plays with the BRIDGESTONE DURAPOWER II shoes and a PrinceTHUNDER SUPERLITE TITANIUM racket. His signature move is the Blurring Ball, which he's gotten pretty good at pulling off.
That said, he doesn't throw his captain weight around much. He's content letting Mizuki, the team manager, handle most of the strategy and decision-making, which actually works out fine for him. He heads up the Sports Committee, which seems to suit him better than the typical captain responsibilities anyway.
At the regional tournament, he partnered with his younger teammate Kaneda for doubles and they managed to pull off a solid win against Seigaku's Golden Pair—no small feat. When he's not focused on tennis, Yoshirou's got some genuinely useful talents: he can fall asleep in literally three seconds and he's a strong long-distance swimmer. He also does handstands and headstands as part of his routine, which honestly tracks for someone with his athletic build.
Off the court, he's into diving as a hobby and has pretty typical preferences—he likes sporty girls, loves an aloha shirt (fans often note he's been wanting one lately), and his go-to comfort foods are baked sweet potato and curry rice. He'll take you to the aquarium or beach if you're his type. Whispering bothers him for some reason.
