Name: Shinichi
Grade: 3
Height: 184 cm
Weight: 79 kg
Position: Point Guard + Captain
Jersey: 4
Distinguishing Characteristics: He looks old...(-_-"),,,and personally, I think he looks Spanish...hehe ^_^"
Personality: Strict, subdued, mature More: [I'll try to keep this unbiased, because as you may have already gathered..I'm not very keen on Maki at all -_-] Maki is the #1 player in Kanagawa, and has a lot of experience, making him appear quite old and very mature to his peers. He is a strict captain who analyzes and gives orders, seldom getting angered - except by annoying people who don't take things seriously (ie Sakuragi and Kiyota). Ambitious but never disrespectful or too proud, he is a player looked up to by many others.
Name: Soichiro
Grade: 2
Height: 189 cm
Weight: 71 kg
Position: Shooting Guard
Jersey: 6
Distinguishing Characteristics: Err...none really...^_^"
Personality: Quiet, focused, hard-working
More: Jin holds the record of being the highest scorer in the region (second highest being Rukawa-kun *_*). Like Mitsui, Jin is a 3 point sharp shooter..except Jin is seen by his coach as not someone with *talent*, but someone who is incredibly hard-working. Kainan's coach thinks that Jin is as accurate as he is because he practices 500 jump shots a day (o_o sugoi yo..), not because of so-called *talent* - which is the thing that Shohoku thinks Mitsui has. Jin is pretty quiet as a player, polite and humble, but greatly respected for his 3 point shooting skills.
Name: Nobunaga
Grade: 1
Height: 178 cm
Weight: 65 kg
Position: Small Forward
Jersey: 10
Distinguishing Characteristics: Umm...long hair and a headband..?!
Personality: Loud-mouthed, egoistic...basically a black-haired replica of Sakuragi ^_^"
More: As I said, Kiyota's personality is basically identical to Sakuragi's - they both think they're the best, and they both can't stand it when someone else shows more skill than they do - (they both hate Rukawa). Unsurprisingly, Kiyota and Sakuragi don't get along, calling each other monkeys (^.^"). The only difference between the two is that Kiyota seems to have some real, solid skill to back up his claim - and he never messes up on court the way Sakuragi does..hehe...
[Just an additional note: Has anyone read Inoue-sama's 'Vagabond'? Don't you think Kiyota without his headband looks like Miyamoto? ^_^ hehe]
