In the anime, Rin Suzuki is a second year student at Shugyoku High School. She is Tamaki Kawazoe's friend and rival.  ~! By using the ascension stance she became the first person to beat Tamaki. In their rematch, she was happy to see that Tamaki had gotten stronger because it makes Rin more determined to win. She lost.!~  Like Tamaki, she is a fan of the Blade Braver anime, but unlike Tamaki, she’s primarily a fan of one of the shows antagonists, Shinaider. She travelled with the Ozawa Swords and Company Association as they choreographed and filmed fight scenes for the Cosmo 13 / Blade Bravers movie. When stuntman Fujimura got hurt on set, she stepped in his role as Shinai-Girl, making Tamaki take her place as the High School Girl.  She has not appeared in the manga, but Touryou Academy’s Kendo Club‘s coach, Teramoto, mentions “Suzuki from Kanto” as a someone who could be selected as one of the “Nine Kendo Beauties,” someone who could be a rival for Ura Sakaki.

Kojirou is the kendo instructor for Muroe High School and he's totally broke. But then an unexpected chance is given to him: his team must win against his senpai's team and the prize is: free meals for a whole year! Now, the only problem left... where to find girls skilled enough and willing to join the kendo team?

Kojiro is an impoverished young teacher and the supervisor of his high school&rsquo;s kendo club. 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?
