Tetsuma, Jo

Summary

Jo Tetsuma is a second-year student who serves as the team's wide receiver, wearing jersey number 15. He is characterized by his exceptional speed, clocking in at 5.0 seconds for the 40-yard dash, and a bench press strength of 115 kg. Despite his athletic prowess, Tetsuma is a quiet individual who follows instructions with literal precision, a trait that often leads to chaotic outcomes if he is not given specific guidance. For instance, when a coach once told him to go run a bit, he continued until he collapsed from exhaustion after three days and three nights. Similarly, when instructed to locate Kid five hours into a flight to the United States, he waited until the plane landed in Houston before bursting through the back window of a bus to find him. This unwavering obedience makes him an ideal wide receiver, as he executes Kid’s pass routes exactly as called without hesitation or deviation, allowing Kid to throw the ball without needing to check for his receiver. Although he appears robotic, Tetsuma is kind-hearted and has maintained a friendship with Kid since middle school. His surname, Tetsuma, translates to Iron Horse, referencing the steam engines of the American Old West. This nickname reflects his playstyle, likening him to a train that cannot deviate from its track and will bulldoze through any obstacles in its path.
