Name: Masashi Kawata School: Sannoh Industry High School, 3rd Year Height: 194cm Family: Parents, younger brother Mikio Kawata Position: Center / Forward Jersey Number: 7 Nickname: Round-faced Gorilla Characteristics - He may seem blunt, but he is actually quite affectionate in his own way and enjoys taking care of others. - Despite his stern impression, he has a sense of humor and shows an unexpectedly funny side, such as being jealous of Eiji Sawakita for receiving many fan letters. When Eiji provoked him by saying, "Masashi-san has a wide shooting range despite his rugged face," Masashi got annoyed—which is understandable regardless of seniority. Especially considering it's something a handsome, popular guy said to someone less attractive... Naturally, Masashi snapped back, "What does my face have to do with my shooting range!" and put Eiji in a leg lock. When other seniors teased the crying Eiji for being a crybaby, Eiji made another comment that earned him an armlock from an even more enraged Masashi. The fact that he treats such remarks from a junior as a prank shows that Masashi is quite broad-minded. "Matsumoto, you just do what you have to do."

Name: Mikio Kawata School: Sannoh Industry High School, 1st Year Height: 210cm, 130kg Family: Older brother Masashi Kawata, parents Position: Center Jersey Number: 15 Personality: Innocent / Pure Nickname: Country Pumpkin Characteristics - A basketball player with a massive physique, the tallest student at Sannoh. He is over 15cm taller than his brother Masashi but, unlike his brother, has soft flesh. He hasn't been playing basketball for very long. Contrary to his size, he has a surprisingly gentle and meticulous personality. - A first-year reserve player for Sannoh and Masashi Kawata's younger brother.

Name: Satoshi Ichinokura School: Sannoh Industry High School, 3rd Year Height: 171cm Position: Shooting Guard Jersey Number: 8 Personality: Reticent with incredible perseverance Characteristics - The shortest member of the Sannoh team. - The only person who has never missed a single school training session. - There is a legend that he once finished an exam while enduring stomach pain until he fainted, only to find out it was appendicitis. If appendicitis isn't treated in time, it can rupture and cause peritonitis, which can be fatal. He endured that level of pain. - He has a somewhat vacant look in his eyes. - One of the three coffee drinkers in the Sannoh basketball team. - Running skills that don't fall behind even when competing with the track team. -(My favorite! ♡) "It's a team I usually don't even pay attention to..."

Name: Eiji Sawakita School: Sannoh Industry High School, 2nd Year Height: 186cm Family: Parents Position: Guard / Forward Jersey Number: 13 (1st Year) → 9 (2nd Year) Nickname: Super Ace, Little Buzz-cut Characteristics - A bit of a crybaby (has a puppy-like personality despite his looks). - Like other seniors such as Kazunari Fukutsu and Masashi Kawata, he has a history of running away from the gym because he couldn't stand Sannoh's harsh training. He seems to consider it his dark past. - After entering Sannoh, he secured a starting position from his first year and played as the ace. He once left the dormitory briefly due to exhaustion from the training, but he eventually overcame it and led the team to the top of the nation in the summer tournament of his first year. - He isn't missing opportunities to grow in terms of team play; rather, he is missing opportunities to grow because there are no players in the country who can challenge him. - The ace of the strongest Sannoh basketball team. He is widely evaluated as the number one high school basketball player. Despite the buzz-cut nerf of Sannoh, he is considered the most handsome player in the club and has many female fans. "It's possible. In this country where I'm not around."

Name: Kazunari Fukutsu School: Sannoh Industry High School, 3rd Year Height: 180cm Position: Point Guard Jersey Number: 4 Personality: Calm, cool-headed (only during basketball; usually a bit eccentric and speaks in a gentle tone even when pointing things out) Characteristics - Captain of Sannoh. - A cool and calm personality that doesn't fall for the opponent's provocations, an unshakable mentality, and a playstyle that focuses on leading the game rather than individual scoring. - Occasionally shows "best friend vibes" by stealing Matsumoto's coffee. -(My second favorite! ♡)

Name: Minoru Matsumoto School: Sannoh Industry High School, 3rd Year Height: 185cm Position: Guard Jersey Number: 6 Characteristics - His skills might be ace-level, but his greatest weakness was his mental strength. - Evaluated as someone who would have naturally become the ace at any other school. - The questionable victim who always gets his coffee stolen by Kazunari Fukutsu (?)
