Its rather amusing how the book likens Sanada to Qin Shi Huang (who was a bit of a bastard if I remember correctly) and Atobe to the King Louis the 14th.

So Sanada's nephew is named Sasuke, right? I have to wonder if Konomi really loves the Sengoku time period, what with how he put in Sanada, Yukimura, Yagyuu (not exactly Sengoku, but close enough), Tokugawa and now Sasuke.

Oh, Atobe is definitely Louis the 14th. That's just perfect. In fact, I'm surprised that I never thought about that before.

The names of most characters have SOMETHING to do with some samurai.

Sanada and Yukimura = Sanada Nobushige.
Yagyuu = Yagyu Jubei
Coach Saito = Hajime Saito?
Kazuya = Tokugawa
Matsudaira = Matsudaira Tadatsune


I'm still waiting for a model after Kogoro Katsura, Takamori Saigo, Toshimichi Okubo, Toshizo Hijikata, and Soji Okita

*needs to find Rurouni Kenshin Kyouto Arc and Peace Maker Kurogane....*

I want to know how Sanada reacts to the little cousin..i wonder if he's immature or what not...Sanada doesn't seem like the type to have patience for children.

Also interesting both Sanada and Tezuka live with their grandparents.

Well those were all real people. Not just from Rurouni Kenshin xD

Very important and well known people might I add.

I know...since Japanese history isn't taught extensively and is shunned in almost all history curriculum i did the research myself...It's just that seeing those names made me want to watch those anime again.

I'm waiting for Konomi to do Sasuke Sarutobi in some way..shape or Form.

So, that's the first mention we've gotten of when the current events are happening. November according to the timeline.

Also, I noticed a goof. It claims that Atobe became Captain in his first year, but that directly contradicts what Momoshiro told Ryoma back before the first Hyoutei Match (that when Seigaku and Hyoutei played in the previous year, Tezuka beat Hyoutei's Captain and Atobe beat Seigaku's Captain).

Well, that would hardly be the first goof. I recall that Konomi contradicted himself with who was the runner up at the previous year's Nationals too.

It's unbelievable that all these incredible players are from the same age group. If only I were a bit younger. (Ryuuzaki Sumire)
Atobe/Ryuuzaki or Sanada/Ryuuzaki anyone?

Atobe is the buchou-san over at Yuushi's, right? There's talk that he's a lady killer among the housewives in Osaka! (Kenya)
So Atobe prefers his ladies older and Osakan?

Yukimura: I was able to hear his intense singing all the way from Class C's classroom.
Sanada and music class is famous at our school.
Somehow the idea of Sanada going all out singing just seems to wrong to me. Then again his seiyuu does have an excellent singing voice. I'm not surprised he's the leader of the Discipline Committee, though.

Koharu and Yuuji go to the toilet together during break. I think that might be too much information.

Yeah, but then he covered up his tracks on that one by having Inui correct the error in series.

Atobe to star in a soap opera spinoff confirmed.

Thanks Sai!

Lol @their obsession with Tezuka.

Oh c'mon guys, BOTH OF YOU BEAT HIM. ISN'T THAT ENOUGH?

Also, I loved that Krauser actually made a comment. Like, what the hell? It seems like...He's polite. Huh.

You would expect the antichrist to be a little more arrogant.

Kaidoh claiming he'll beat Atobe and Sanada: Okay, Kaidoh is at least a decent player.

Kadowaki claiming he will with his Super Tennis: Lol wut?

But Kuki claiming that he'll beat Sanada. Man, words can't convey that feeling.

I think I speak for everyone when I say,

"Those two, they throw their weight around. I'm going to shut them up with my super tennis!"

and ROFL
Sanada's strictness towards himself is something worth learning. But, I could do without the punishment by fist. (Jackal)

Edit:
Kusunoki: When I first saw Sanada's "KIEEEE" in the script, I thought, "No way~, I can't do this." I mean, it's tennis, why "KIEEEE"? Now that it has sunk in, wherever I go, I get requests to say it. (laughs)

LOOOOOL That was totally in the Sanada/Echizen match in the anime. I remember how out of place it was.

There are some errors there..in the Live Journal TL..Hyoutei lost to Seigaku in the Quarters not the semi's...

Lol me and Atobe are Libra's..

Started early morning practice of zazen and kendou
From then on, rose at 4 every morning
That's just win right there
Tezuka: He is not the same as before. That is the man that is Sanada Genichirou.
Acknowledge the emperor lol

(Tezuka vs. Atobe where Atobe raises Tezuka's arm)
-Tezuka is Atobe's acknowledged opponent so much that Atobe is willing to throw away the gorgeousness of his win.

(Tezuka vs.Sanada where Sanada offers his hand to pull Tezuka up)
-Only in a fight against an opponent he has acknowledged as his true rival can he experience fulfillment.
One of my favorite moments in the manga. Still they both have a man crush on Tezuka lol
Suwabe: Sanada's attractiveness is how he's "THE Japanese man".His seriousness and manliness are things today's Japanese men lack.
LMFAO
- Samurai. Seems like he's bad at tactics. (Kusunoki)
Lol wut...he a set of broken ass moves

Didn't know Atobe was such a hard worker..but most Tennis players who do well tend to be..

does maintenance on his sword
More win

The interview was filled with lulz...can't wait for the next one....Sanada sucks with technology...i can believe that

In any case, I'm surprised! Are all Japanese people as interesting as those two? (Krauser)
O_O

Sanada, it's thanks to you that I've come this far. Let me say this properly...thank you so much. (Yukimura)
Awwww

Atobe-san and Sanada-san? The matches, I enjoyed them. But, I did win both of them. (Ryoma)
San eh? quite polite of you Koshimae...
