Line 24:
* [[Big Eater]]: Do NOT have him tag along for burgers.
* [[Bishonen]]: Looks even more like a girl than most other bishonen. Still passable for a guy though.
* [[Boring Invincible Hero]]: Throughout the entire run, in both the anime and manga, Ryoma has lost matches to less than five people, in spite of the fact that [[Drama
* [[Bratty Half
* [[Bully Hunter]]: He will ''not'' let someone be bullied if he can help it.

* [[Gratuitous English]]: "You have lots more to work on."
* [[Heavy Sleeper]]: He loves taking naps, and [[Not a Morning Person|is hard to wake up up in the morning]].

Line 68:
* [[Genius Bruiser]]: As mentioned above, Tezuka is very intelligent, and his rivals such as Fuji and Atobe initially assumed that he was the calculating type on the court.

* [[Megane]]: Looks-wise, he's more of a [[Four Eyes, Zero Soul]] type, but his personality is far too [[Team Dad]]-ish for that.
* [[The Only One Allowed to Defeat You]]: To ''several'' characters. He is considered ''the'' one to beat, period.
