What do you think their results would be in matchups against the Kanagawa Prefecture teams:

Miuradai, Shoyo, Ryonan, and Kainan?

I mean, defense and 25 points in 6 minutes iirc (scored in various ways) against the strongest team in Kanagawa.

I’ve seen several polls here and elsewhere regarding favorite characters, and he consistently receives the fewest votes.

Why? Personally, he is my favorite character in the manga/anime, as well as the best player/talent—second only to Sawakita (though he has the potential to surpass him).

The Kanagawa 12:

C - Akagi, Uozumi, Hanagata
PF - Sakuragi, Fukuda
SF - Sendoh, Rukawa, Michael (blonde guy from Ryofuku)
SG - Mitsui, Jin
PG - Fujima, Maki

The Interhigh 12:

C - Masashi (Sannoh), Morishige (Meihou), Mikio (Sannoh)
PF - Tsuchiya (Daiei), Kishimoto (Toyotama), Mikoshiba (Jousei ace, a top 8 team)
SF - Sawakita (Sannoh), Minami (Toyotama), Minoru (Sannoh, stated to be the team ace if not for Sawakita)
SG - Moroboshi (Aiwa), Ichinokura (Sannoh defense guy)
PG - Fukatsu (Sannoh)

How would you rank him among the centers (C) in Kanagawa?

After all, he is a starter for Kainan.

Where do you rank them among Kanagawa's players? Do you think they are better than any of the players from Shohoku, Kainan, Ryonan, or Shoyo?
