BackgroundEdit

Hikaru Amane, or known as Dabide (David), is well-known for single-handedly beating Hyoutei Gakuen's pre-regular players during a practice match. It is no doubt that he is one of the strongest players in the team, despite being a sophomore. David is one of Rokkaku's best players as evident by his performance at a practice match with Hyoutei. He alone defeated a hundred of Hyoutei's pre-regulars including Hiyoshi Wakashi. David uses an extra-long racket and plays Power Tennis.

PersonalityEdit

While he is very serious on court, he still tends to crack puns in between hits. When he is off court makes even more lame puns and jokes. Together with his upperclassman and doubles partner, Kurobane Harukaze, they make a manzai pair.

In the manga he seems to actually fear when Kurobane hits him after hearing his jokes as shown in his debut chapter: Genius 168.
