japan u-17

Hi, I had read New Prince of Tennis a couple of years ago and stopped around chapter 100ish (The Akutsu/Sanada match) but now I'm up to date.. And in hindsight the whole U-17 Selection arc as a whole just seemed like a big pile of fan-service, and I don't mean that in a bad way, as this series...

Or would you guys like Japan vs America instead. Personally I hope for a rematch. Also what do you think will happen? Will Germany be beaten by the Swiss or Americans or even French? Will Japan possibly lose before making it to the Finals?

Swiss rank2, Greece rank10, Aus rank18, Japan rank23. So I was thinking about it. But to keep it short. Amadeus should not play vs Japan. They are super weak, why would you waste your pro. Heck the only reason for Amadeus to play would be to please fans, but fighting Japan would just be like...

So after learning the names of the remaining ones, I was looking at this image of the US reps again: And while doing that, I was thinking to myself "Man, this Jackson dude is pretty tall. I wonder if he's taller than Ochi (probably not, but that's not the point). He also has a pretty calm...

Who do you want to paired up in a match involving these 3 counties if they face each other again (in a Germany vs japan vs US) it has to have 1 HSer and 1 Junior High I would like to see Volk / tezuka to face off Byouduin / Atobe ----------------------------------------------------------...

So far, we know that the 27 world cup participants along with Inui, Yanagi and Mitsuya travel to Australia for the tournament. There is no sign that other HSers or MSers have traveled to Australia as well so we assume that they all stayed at the U17 camps and keep on practicing and having their...

So, we have 14 chosen MSers, but one slot won't be used cause Ryoga took Ryoma to join the US camp. Let's suppose that Ryoma will join the US team and that Tezuka will join the German team. The foreigners like Krauser that are in the camp will also count as a possible choice. Remember...

I doubt the manga will stretch into the next school year, so we'll probably never get an answer to this, but how do you think the 1st String will look like once Byoudouin and co. graduate and the 3rd year MSers can play for the HS division? Since the MSers seem to have been invited only for...

Basically at some point a few weeks ago, while going through the manga and discussing some aspects, I started theorizing that some additional parts were planned, but removed from the final product for whatever reason, but hints as to what could have been there still exist. There are two (major)...

Rokkaku didn't? With the likes of Ao Kentaro and Saeki, no less?

I'd like to discuss the effects of the two training camps a bit and in which ways they differ. Since we have some data on each side now (5th court for the U17 Camp, Momoshiro's anime stats for the mountain camp), it should be possible to get a general idea regarding those matters. Starting...

What do you think of the remaining first stringers? Will they be more fodder like the others? Will we get full matches for once? My thoughts, Byoudouin, shuu and the guy who is probably ryoga will be good. The remaining ones will be more fodder who will curbstomp the court 1 people before...

What do you people think, what is the highest court the characters (winners, loser, highschoolers, doesn't matter) can get to and what is their current level? I think Irie and Oni are court 1 material and the rest of the current 5th court could be 4th court just as well (maybe 3rd court but...
