Ryoga Echizen (越前リョーガ) 

Ryoga Echizen is a character that appears in the anime movie “The Prince of Tennis: The Two Samurai The First Game” and the manga “New Prince of Tennis”.

Overview

• A boy who calls himself Echizen Ryoma ‘s “older brother”.
• He is two years older than Ryoma.
• He calls Ryoma “Chibisuke”. When he was a child, he was brought by Nanjiro

The most worrisome thing about Ryoga is his relationship with Ryoma Echizen, who is associated with his name. I will spoil the relationship between the two that is currently known. When Ryoma was a child, Ryoga was a boy that her father, Nanjiro, suddenly brought home. They grow up like real siblings, with Ryoga as the older brother and Ryoma as the younger brother. However, one day, Ryoga was taken in by her aunt, and they parted ways. Ryoma forgot about Ryoga due to her amnesia, but when he resumed playing in “The New Prince of Tennis”, he remembered Ryoga by playing tennis together. And regarding the important blood relationship between the two, it is known that they are related by blood through Nanjiro. It is unknown how close they are, but since they look exactly alike, they are probably very close.

Because he was Ryoma’s older brother from today, and they lived together in the Echizen family, who lived in the United States, but before he knew it, he left and left the city. I was walking around town. Because he learned tennis from Nanjiro, he is quite talented. He is good at the self-proclaimed “Nanjiro Jikiden, Honke Twist Serve”, and its power exceeds that of Ryoma. He quickly identified the cyclone smash and hit it back. Tezuka Kunimitsu commented on his strength that he might be close to the Samurai Nanjiro in his prime. The first appearance is the anime movie, “The Movie Prince of Tennis: Two Samurai The First Game”.

Although it is an original character for the movie, the character itself, including the setting, was conceived by the original author from the beginning of the series, so it is not completely anime original. After that, in the OVA, Ryoma, who has traveled to the United States, witnesses Ryoga in practice. He didn’t have many lines, but he does appear in the ending and so on. Appeared in the main manga as a U-17 training camp player in ” New Prince of Tennis “. Byodoin Phoenix seems to have “picked up” from overseas, and when the national team returned to Japan, itaru Saito , a mental coach.
