Buchou's Tennis

Data from FET

 

History:
Year 2 : Yamabuki Chuu Regular - National Level (Doubles)
Year 3 : Yamabuki Chuu Captain - National Level (Doubles)
First Appearance: Volume 11, Chapter 92

Minami and Higashikata Masami are best known as the Jimmies (althought this nickname isn't very funny for them), and ranked as a doubles pair at National Level. Last year they could defeat a second-year Seigaku's Oishi Syuchirou and his senpai in the Prefectural Tournament, but they didn't expected the growing of Seigaku's Golden Pair in the last tournament.

   

Strategy

Their play style is based in the sign language, often coordinated by Minami, who makes hand signals to Higashikata to follow a specific direction during the match.

Another plan was concentrating the attack toward only a player (in the recent match the target was Oishi), that which applied a lot of tension during the game and gave the opportunity to obtain more points during the confusion.
