| Intro |
Rikkai is the team that every other team aspires to be. Rikkai is the team that every other team aspires to defeat. Behind the triple threat of Yukimura Seiichi, Sanada Genichirou and Yanagi Renji, Rikkai has claimed the top honor at the Nationals two years in a row. They have also won the Kantou championship for the past 15 consecutive years. However, a shift in power is in the making. Last year, the only Seishun Gakuen player to hand Rikkai a loss was Tezuka Kunimitsu. During this year's Kantou finals, after overwhelming Seigaku by taking both doubles points, Rikkai suffered three surprising losses at the remainding singles matches and had to surrender their Kantou dominance. Although they entered the Nationals as the challengers this year, Rikkai was still confident that they would walk away with the title, especially when factoring in Yukimura's comeback. To their utter disappointment, the National finals was a repeat scenario of the Kantou finals. |
