[TRIVIA]

The Prince of Tennis 10.5 Fanbook | Publication Date: 11/02/2001

He has two states: his normal state, and his aggressive Burning state he enters when holding a racket. In his normal state, he is described as being kind and gentle

He likes inviting his friends over to his house to play Monopoly and other games. He also tends to enter his Burning state while playing Monopoly

He developed his Burning state from his father

Konomi came up with his “burning” catchphrase since the phrase was popular at the time and to imply that Kawamura knows little English

He used to attend karate classes, but stopped after starting tennis. He was considered a formidable fighter, but would get too nervous during matches and was unable to yield results

Konomi was inspired to have him change into his Burning state from cases of feeble-minded people driving violently once they’re behind the wheel of a car

He and Fuji are doubles partners since they are the only two in Seigaku besides Oishi and Kikumaru that have the disposition to help each other in doubles matches

He is close with Akutsu’s mother, Yuuki

He states him shouting “burning” has no meaning

He states he does not know why his personality changes when he holds a racket

When asked if his normal or Burning state is his true personality, he responds that both of them are

He is a fan of Lupin III and has nicknamed Fuji “Fujiko” after Fujiko Mine, the heroine of the series

When asked if he’s going to take over his father’s sushi shop, he states that he hasn’t thought about it

He is aware of his actions when he’s in his Burning state

He is described as someone who should understand their other side more to let their charms blossom

Konomi describes him as a “character you won’t dislike.” He wanted to have a player with a dual personality and with Kawamura being the last member he created, he wanted him to be someone no one would dislike

The Prince of Tennis 20.5 Fanbook | Publication Date: 12/04/2003

He keeps his room clean and actually tends to be meticulous

His secondary sport would be judo

The Prince of Tennis 40.5 Fanbook | Publication Date: 12/04/2007

Seven Days of TeniPuri:  ↪  Day 1: Favorite character

KIKUMARU EIJI. 

I’ve always had a soft spot for sweet and childish characters. However while  watching the series I saw that Eiji wasn’t only a child. He grew up, he fought against his limits and lack of stamina. Being part of the Golden Pair brings lots of responsibilities which he managed to carry through every match.  In the end I am always proud of this lovely cat boy!

Seven Days Of Tenipuri

Day 1: Favourite Character

KIRIHARA AKAYA - sweetest smile of the entire world - never gives up. No, literally. This kid had kept challenging three damn Demons™ [official nomenclature] for two full years, being destroyed every time but never giving up. That only made him more motivated.  - blindly trusted his senpais and they put his mental and physical health at risk just for the sake of winning a tournament. Still not over this. Will never be over this. THEY PUSHED HIM OUT OF A HELICOPTER. - STILL BELIEVES IN SANTA CLAUS okay just love him already.

7 days of TeniPuri Day 2: favorite school - Hyotei

Pretending to symphatize with you, there's a smirk behind our eyes We understand plotting more than getting along with people

Seven Days of Tenipuri

Day 3: Favorite Ship

I love alpha pair. One of the things that draws me to this pairing is its potential to be a fairly balanced relationship. Even if Sanada is shown to go kind of over the top doing things for Yukimura, individually they are still such strong-willed people with their own distinct personalities. 

Plus, they seem interested in each other’s non-tennis hobbies, which gives me the impression their relationship isn’t solely based on tennis. Sanada poses for Yukimura’s art, Yukimura appreciates Sanada’s calligraphy (to the extent that he makes sure everyone’s is still intact during the bag check), Sanada wants to show Yukimura his fundoshi…

Seven Days of TeniPuri: ↪ Day 4: Favorite match/arc

SHIRAISHI KURANOSUKE VS FUJI SYUUSUKE.

I get to see Shiraishi’s Bible Tennis and Fuji’s further character development. The whole tension was real, I couldn’t stop watching it because I really wished for Fuji to win. Yes, I kind of had the feeling he’d lose, but my hopes were high. Yes, I was kind of sad in the end  but the whole match was really amazingly done. Also I really got into Shiraishi after it. Not to mention how much I enjoyed the Tenimyu ver.

(My other choice for match would be Niou vs Fuji.)
