Summary

Renji Yanagi is a third-year student in Class F at Rikkaidai Fuzoku Middle School, bearing the number 19. Born on June 4th under the Gemini sign with blood type A, he stands 181cm tall and weighs 67kg. He serves as the secretary for the student council and considers the library his favorite spot within the school grounds. Yanagi’s educational background includes attendance at both Midorigawa Dai-ichi Elementary School and Kanagawa Dai-ni Elementary School. His leisure activities are heavily skewed toward intellectual pursuits; he spends his allowance on books, enjoys old Japanese court music, and favors the films of director Ozu Yasujirou. He has a particular affinity for pure literature, especially the works of Natsume Souseki, and spends his free time reading the morning and evening newspapers. Known as the data man, Yanagi is one of the so-called "Three Demons" of Rikkai dai, alongside Yukimura and Sanada. While his childhood friend and rival Inui relies on external tools to track statistics, Yanagi stores all his data in his head. He is renowned for his highly strategic approach to tennis, often applying early military tactics to his matches. His notable techniques include Data Tennis, Kamaitachi, and Utsusemi. Beyond the court, Yanagi possesses special skills such as mental math, haiku composition, Go, Japanese chess, and the tea ceremony. He dislikes individuals who waste money or time and currently desires an outline of Japanese literature. His guiding motto is "One thousand days' training to forge, ten thousand days' training to temper."
