Spoiler New Prince of Tennis Spoiler Thread (Final Chapter: August 4h)

[GP Kyo]

They're discussing the implications of Ryoga's ability. The way it works is if Ryoga returns your technique and you return it back, your technique gets stolen. That's why Ryoma lost his Ten'imuhou the moment his racket came into contact with the ball Ryoga had returned.

So, you have two choices. Either give up the point and keep your technique, or continue the rally but lose your technique.

The HSers say that even if you have lots of techniques at disposal, they'll all eventually be stolen as the match drags on. Moreover, Ryoga gets stronger and stronger by consuming your techniques.

So you have to give up points on purpose, which indeed doesn’t prevent Ryoga becoming more dangerous, as he can use them the moment he consumes it.

Kitsune Bidama is a great counter to this as he can’t touch the ball, but it’ll be a Matter of time till he figures out a counter. And then Ryoma will have to score with techniques as long as he has acces to them and when he’s out of options, he’ll get his upgrade.

Pretty sure Kitsune Bidama will not be the only technique on Ryoma's copied arsenal that prevents opponents form touching the ball.

No spoilers yet?

The mag is out earlier this month.

Spoiler: huge spoilers

Ryoma keeps winning points thanks to Fuji's technique so Ryoga counters it with Medanores' Time Thief.

Ryoga then steadily keeps stealing Ryoma's techniques and wins the first set 6-3.

After, Ryoma collapses on the floor, with nothing left.

However, deep inside him he finds Nanjirou's tennis, that was there all along.

The next set will be Ryoga vs "Nanjirou".

Ofc it makes sense Ryoma’s true tennis is Nanjirou’s, and it was all along with him and now it will flourish.

Time thief is virtually the best counter to anything, and without it, Kitsune Fireball is impossible to return.

I guess Ryoga can’t steal Nanjirou’s tennis because it’s his natural counter, and Ryoma will finally show how the best player ever plays.

What????

I thought Ryoga cannot steal any of the two Medanore's Tennis cause of the Twin Synergy thing of Antonio and Antokino?

Also, Ryoga was sparring against Antonio, not Antokino.

Well, I think the Medanores just share each other technique to each other.

But I thought Ryoga cannot consume their abilities?

Or Ryoga can consume it. But the Medanores can still use the ability?

I guess you need some borderline powers to combat it.

I think Toku's improve Black Holes can counter Kitsune Fireball.

And I guess Tezuka's Phantom can force it out? Since kitsune fireball weakness is it will be out when it was moved even by the tiniest of wind or any resistance.

Ofc, Volknado Iinfinite Tornado will counter it too.

Hmmm I don't know how to feel about this. I had a feeling he would start using the techniques his dad taught him while also becoming his splitting image. But I was hoping his own original tennis would show up. The samurai soul, the kijin, always did look like nanjirou tho.

There's also the foreshadowing where ryoga wanted to learn the secret of nanjirou tennis but nanjirou didn't teach him. This must be that

I don't think it's about it being a natural counter. It's more so that nanjirou is a full fledged tennis player. So techniques that are not at the top of the pro level don't work.

If konomi were to continue with a prince of tennis 3 and have pro leagues be shown like Wimbledon and ryoma (nanjirou) were to play, he would probably struggle more against other more experienced full fledged players.

But yeah no one at the under 17 level can beat nanjirou. So ryoma having that inner complete samurai makes him the strongest.

--- Double Post Merged, May 2, 2026 ---

Or Ryoga can consume it. But the Medanores can still use the ability?

They explained that the twins have this link similar to howling but more natural that allows them to recover the tennis that ryoga consumes. So ryoga gets the technique but the twins still keep there tennis.

 

[GP Kyo]

Za Warudo in tennis will never not crack me up.

 

[LetalHawk]

Are the raws out?

 

[mathematicianrcg]

So, technically Ryoma (that we all know) cannot win against Ryoga.

It is "Nanjiro" who will beat Ryoga.

Makes sense, since the Ryoma we know cannot even beat Kiko. Lmao. He lose 4-6 multiple times.

Japan Coaches and Byodoin also thought Japanese Msers had no chance against Tezuka back in semis. (Including Ryoma and Kintarou (pre powerup in finals) )

Ryoma would have also lost against Fuji in Intra tourney if not for the wind.

And we all know Fuji is very strong. But he doensn't hold a candle with Ryoga.

Ryoma will have his powerup as "Nanjirou's Tennis"

 

[LetalHawk]

hopefully we get today the raws

So we're likely to see the Samurai Kijin that he has in full force this time around. But I think I'm also ready that this may still not be Ryoma's true tennis.

So we're likely to see the Samurai Kijin that he has in full force this time around. But I think I'm also ready that this may still not be Ryoma's true tennis.

I do think this is his full fledged samurai spirit, in essence, Nanjirou. His tennis was hidden deep within Ryoma and we have seen glimpses of it since ryoma unlocked his Kijin, and now his complete Kijin flourished and for that he needed to be pushed to the brink of despair, with nothing left for him.

Ofc Ryoga can barely keep up atm because nobody is as strong as Nanjirou in this tourney at the U-17 level and he will need another big broken powerup to keep up with him. Ryoma has gotten the biggest upgrade but like you said I’d be great if his true tennis is something else aside from this.

Nanjirou is indeed in the hospital and the escape with Ryoma was probably an illusion, I wonder if he will not die or has died, but certainly it’s becoming a reality rn, I hope it not happens but Ryoma becoming “Nanjirou” looks like his spirit has always been with him all this time.

The second set will probably end with “Nanjirou” destroying Ryoga 6-0, and in the final set Ryoga will counter back with a ridiculous upgrade and he’ll be able to succesfully take away his uncle’s tennis, and with that Ryoma will have to finally find his true original tennis and end the match. We still have three months left until the end of Npot so we probably have 9 chapters left.

lmao.

Ryoga needed Medanore's Za Warudo and Strongest Spear to counter Kitsune Fireball.

Ryoma lost against Ryoga 3-6. At least we all know the Ryoma we know pre Nanjiro spirit has no match against Ryoga.

Nanjiro is toying with Ryoga. He can't consume him if he cannot return Nanjiroh's shots.

For what I understood from the images, he only used Time Thief to counter Kitsune Bidama, so in the end you need a move on that level to stop it. I don’t think he resorted to using the strongest spear, I wonder if Ryoga also consumed Dark Matter too, but even if he did it won’t work against Ryoma Nanjirou lol.
