Author's note- A guest named Diana requested me in the reviews section to do Kenya next.
Of Shitenhouji
Chapter 2
Kenya Oshitari
Kenya started playing tennis at 10
Yushi was the first of the Oshitari cousins to start playing tennis. Kenya saw his blue haired cousin was gaining considerable popularity through the sport. So Kenya picked up the racquet.
Kenya has a cousin complex
Kenya and Yushi were inseparable as kids. Their parents were rather surprised at this. Kenya and Yushi were polar opposites. Kenya preferred activities that had him jumping and running around while Yushi preferred games that challenged him intellectually. Kenya misses his cousin who now resides in Tokyo. Sure they fight a lot but they are the only people who understand each other clearly. Kenya considers Yushi closer to him than his younger brother. Yushi is his best friend.
Kenya is jealous of Shiraishi
Kenya hates it that Shiraishi is so popular with girls. Kenya even bleached his originally black hair to make it look a shade similar to Shiraishi's fair hair. He also adopted a catch line to match up with Shiraishi's Ecstasy. So No Speed, No Life was created. But girls still preferred the poison plant addicted man. Kenya's jealousy prevents him from becoming close friends with Shiraishi.
Kenya's finds a certain peace in talking with Zaizen
Sure the kid's screwed up. But Zaizen has this view of the world that makes Kenya feel at peace. Zaizen is the only one in the whole school who has a cynical point of view towards everything. He says anything he wants and is not scared of anyone's feelings. He could be crushing your heart and the very next second he could be hugging you. Kenya wished he had the guts to be as blunt as Zaizen.
Kenya thinks innocent girls are his type
Kenya thinks that innocent girls are the best. He thinks lies and betrayals can weigh a relationship down. He knows this from Yushi constantly blabbering about his romance books. An innocent girl would not be prone to hurting him. He is too sensitive to go through heartbreak and he knows that.
Kenya has no sense of style
Since Kenya was a kid, his mother has been picking out clothes for him. On an occasion where he was allowed to choose his own clothes he ended up picking up an electric blue shirt along with a lime green pair of shorts and extra-long pink socks to top it off with. Thankfully his mother had caught him before he stepped out of the house. Kenya really doesn't know what he is going to do in future once he moves out of the nest.
Kenya wants to become a professional athlete
Kenya is secretly training to become an athlete behind his parents' backs. His whole family is filled with doctors including his father. He knows Yushi already intends to become a doctor. Kenya does not want to become a doctor. He hates the sight of blood and he certainly does not want to be cutting through bodies as his occupation.
Kenya thinks that playing drums is his escape
Kenya has been banning his father's old drum kit since the age of 5. He thinks that the rhythmic beats the drum produces goes with his speed. When he and Yuji were in first year of middle school, they had started a band. Sadly on the day of their first concert, Kenya was playing four beats ahead of the whole group and finished playing the entire song when the rest of the group was still half way through it.
Kenya thinks Kintaro is going to take Shitenhouji to a Nationals Trophy
Kenya respects Shiraishi as a captain but he knows that he won't be the one taking them to a Nationals final. He knows Zaizen won't accomplish the task also. But he knows that Kintaro has the guts and confidence to put a Nationals Trophy in the trophy cupboard of the Shitenhouji tennis club.
Kenya wants to win
Kenya has had a competitive streak since he was a kid. He hates losing. When he had to sit out of the doubles match to allow Chitose play against Tezuka he felt gutted after Chitose lost. He wants to win even though Shitenhouji lost. Because he knows Shitenhouji always win, even though they lost for they always emerge out of the fight with a smile on their faces.
Author's note- Thanks for reading through this. I think I will be doing Zaizen next. He is the most complex of the lot. Please review and fav/ follow if this appealed to you.
