A tennis prodigy leads his handsome tennis club to victory at the national tournament.

Four-time consecutive U.S. Junior tournament champ Ryoma Echizen comes to Seishun Academy to further his reign as The Prince of Tennis. His skill is matched only by his attitude--irking some but impressing all as he leads his team to the Nationals and beyond!

After Tokyo is chosen as the site for the upcoming Nationals, Hyotei gets a shot at redemption by being given an invitational berth in the tournament.

Meanwhile, a prodigy from Kansai is making his way toward Tokyo. Packing serious power--and a temper to match--in his small frame, this wild 7th-grader has talent and skill that could rival even Ryoma's.
