Yukimura = prettyboy. And not the mean bastard I know as Yukimura Seiichi. What's wrong with this?! He doesn't sound like a tennis addict either. o_O Oh fandom, how could you have been so wrong?! -goes to mourn in quiet-

It goes in cycles, actually. In the beginning all we knew about Yukimura was that he was pretty, blue-haired and liked gardening, so the early fanfics (~2004) tend to feature a gentle (er, to be crass, ukefied?) Yukimura. After about a hundred more chapters Yukimura shows up and steps on tennis nets and tells everyone their playing is horrible, and that (together with fans who argued that NO WAY COULD the captain of the Rikkai team be anything like soft) has probably changed fandom perception somewhat.

I think his motto sums him up quite well, actually; "You can't experience the spring's warmth if you don't experience the winter's cold," manages to be a captainly pep talk and a metaphor on nature at the same time.

And I'm Lynn, sorry for bouncing in; I uhh, like Rikkai a LOT.

Just a note, as I'm not sure what country you're from, but in US English, elementary school names like "Daiichi" or "Daisan" are generally called "PS #1" and so on, or just "Kanagawa Elementary #1". 'Level' is a little misleading if the kanji is 第.

Thanks for your translations, I didn't realize that 40.5 was out! I can't wait to buy it. <3

Yeah, I realized that was probably a bad move when someone asked me about it in the Seigaku profiles post. I just changed it back to the original 第一・第二・第三, etc, to keep it part of the actual name of the school so people don't get confused. XD; That's what I get for trying to over-translate, a bit.

You're welcome~ I can't wait to buy it, either. <3

Oh, and I live in Canada. XD; Though, I have to admit, a lot of my Japanese knowledge does come from the time when I lived in Japan, so while I understand completely when I read/say/listen to something in Japanese, I can't always come up with a very good English equivalent.

In the case of Niou's motto, I had a bitch of a time trying to figure out what he meant. XD; My friend made the observation that he was probably referring to chess - when you move a knight (the white horse) piece twice, it lands on the same place it started. Unless I can find an English equivalent to the saying (they are extremely difficult to understand since the Japanese doesn't make grammatical sense - most Japanese people have difficulties understanding them, as well), that's the best that I can tell you.

Poor put upon Jackal XD That's okay, Bunta'll bake him a cake if he's spending so much time in the home econ room anyway.

A vase, Sanada? For Yukimura's flowers??

Niou's profile is full of win.

Wow...these are terrific profiles. Sanada's gonna be a virgin forever...LOL. Kirihara is so adorable. He's definitely earned a ton of cool points from me simply because of his profile. Renji is like the love child of Inui and Tezuka (*gasp* crack doujinshi idea?).

Oh, Rikkai. You never fail to amuse me. ♥

I think, I do not want to know why Niou wants a screwdriver... And Yagyuu a handkerchief. Totally random.
But I really do love Niou's motto. ♥

Thank you so much for translating these wonderful profiles! ^_^
