Danjūrō Eiga is a round and plain-faced first year who joins the Kendo Club with Yūji. He originally wanted to join the Ping Pong Club, but there was no such club in the school. He shocks Yūji and Kojirō when he brings his pretty girlfriend Miyako to join the club. While he finds the basic training to be &quot;boring&quot; (possibly because he wants to impress Miyako), he is rather proficient in score keeping, as shown in one episode of the anime. While he generally comes off as rather dim-witted, it appears he is perceptive to the character Miyako doesn&#039;t want him to see. In Episode 11, he was hinted to also have his own &quot;dark side&quot; during a staring contest he had with Kojirō, although his &quot;black mode&quot; was subtler than Miyako&#039;s &quot;black mode&quot; and his aura only showed in his eyes. He has no past experience with Kendo but is improving very quickly, even to the point where Yūji thinks Danjuro might surpass him before they graduate. Yūji has even remarked (in one episode of the anime) that Danjūrō was &quot;made for kendo&quot;. Eiga is arguably the smartest member of the Kendo club because he scored 2nd place is the Muroe High School Regional exams for freshman. By the end of the anime series, it is revealed that he is the new captain of the Kendo Club.    (Source: Wikipedia)

He doesn&rsquo;t have the leeway to spend time on his students&ndash;he can barely feed himself as it is. So when an old friend makes him a bet with an entire year&rsquo;s worth of deluxe sushi on the line, Kojiro finds a new purpose in life: to beat his friend&rsquo;s kendo team! But before he can arrange a kendo meet for both schools&rsquo; kendo teams, he needs to actually put together a five-woman squad&ndash;and the first girl he needs is Tamaki Kawazoe, kendo athlete extraordinaire and daughter of an elite kendo dojo master. The problem is, she isn&rsquo;t really interested in doing kendo for fun. What can Kojiro do to convince her to join the team?
