darn the poll wont let me vote. why the 7 after every thing? yes, i know it's a stupid questio but i'm curious. WAIT!! I remember Geni telling us once... I believe its something like: She tried PoT9 for the 9 regulars of Seigaku, but it was already taken (I think?). Then she tried PoT5 but that was already taken too (I have a feeling that I'm completely wrong). So lastly she chose PoT7, because... 7 is her lucky number? IDK...Eh I know it's not much help... But she mentioned this like... 6 months ago.

[i have a feeling that she told us this in one of the very old threads of nothing but spam... *reminisces about the old days* xD
i think its something like she tried 9, 8, and 4 and then she decided on seven because seven is just awesome like that a total of seven people play during the whole... match? (doubles+doubles+3xsingles=7) ;D]

The reason she chose pot7 is. she tried for princeoftennis but that site was taken. then she tried for princeoftennis4. 4 is her favorite number but that was also taken. she tried princeoftennis9 there were 9 seigaku members but it was also taken. last she tried for princeoftennis7. since seigaku 7 members were allowed to play each time.

HERE ARE THE SUMMARIES NOTE: THE SUMMARIES OF OVAs WILL BE TOMORROW THIS IS FROM EP1-178 SORRY FOR MAKING THIS 2 POSTS MY POST EXCEEDED THE LIMIT OF WORDS
Episode List and Summary 1)"A Prince Appears" Ryoma Echizen moves to Japan after having success at tennis in the US (winning four consecutive American Junior Openings). He 'saves' Sakuno Ryuzaki from upperclassmen without realizing it. He then puts one of the older boys named Sasabe in his place with a tennis match. 2)"Samurai Junior" Ryoma beats two juniors who are picking on the freshman. He then plays tennis with Takeshi Momoshiro. Momoshiro plays with a bad ankle, while Ryoma plays with his off hand. They quit playing before either wins. Sakuno's friend Tomoka is introduced. 3)"They've Arrived! The Seigaku Regulars" The Seigaku Regulars are introduced. Reporter Mamoru Inoue and photographer Saori Shiba take an interest in Ryoma. Ryoma defeats 2nd year non-regular Arai using an old broken tennis racket. The captain of the tennis team, Tezuka, enters Ryoma's name on the intraschool ranking matches roster despite the fact that he is a freshman (and therefore technically not allowed to participate). 4)"The Man Called Viper" Ryoma and the Seigaku Regulars win all their matches as the coming year's regulars are chosen through the intraschool ranking matches. In the third round, the regular Kaoru Kaidoh is Ryoma's opponent. Kaidoh uses his special move, the Snake, while Ryoma switches to his good hand. 5)"Snake Shot" Kaidoh uses his snake shot to wear off Ryoma's stamina, but instead Ryoma wins the game using a clever plan to turn the tables on him, making Kaidoh the tired victim instead. 6)"That Man, Echizen Nanjirou" Inoue plays a match with the former "Samurai Nanjiro" to get answers about why he retired, just to find out that he now focuses on developing Ryoma, meanwhile Sakuno looks for Ryoma to learn more about him and tennis. 7)"Two Ryomas" Inui Sadaharu is Ryoma's next opponent. He uses data tennis to counter Ryoma's play style. It seems like an easy win for Inui, but Ryoma refuses to give up. 8)"Split Step" Ryoma uses a new technique, a variation of the Split Step that makes him fast enough to return Inui's calculated shots. This, along with the Twist Serve, turns the game into Ryoma's favor. 9)"The Hard Day" Ryoma finally defeats Inui, and in doing so becomes a regular. Inui's next opponent is Kaidoh, who also surpasses Inui's data and takes a spot in the regulars as well. Ryuzaki-sensei asks Inui to help in the regulars training anyway; he does so by introducing his special, dreaded vegetable juice, which he dubs "Inui Juice". 10)"Counter Attack! Sasabe Once Again" Ryoma and the rest of the first years go to where Kachiro's father works as tennis coach just to find trouble with Sasabe junior again, but now it's Sasabe senior's turn to learn a lesson from Ryoma. 11)"Echizen VS Momoshiro" Ryoma and Momoshiro both realize that they want to play Singles Three in the upcoming Gyokurin match. But when beaten by two cocky Gyokurin doubles players on a street court, the two decide that "real men play doubles." 12)"The Two "AH UN" Boys" Momo and Ryoma volunteer to play in doubles 2 and they also develop a tactic to improve their playing coordination. Their rivals use the Double Net strategy taking advantage of Momo and Ryoma's lack of coordination and turn the game into their favor. 13)"Men Play Doubles" Ryoma and Momoshiro agree to split the court in half, so they only each have to defend one half of the court. It is a strange but effective strategy that rescues the game but doesn't save the Seigaku pair from a punishment, even when they win the match. 14)"The Swallow Return!" Fudomine, an unknown team that withdrew from last tournament for internal affairs, is Seigaku's next rival. In the first game Fuji and Kawamura find themselves struggling against the first Fudomine pair; forcing Fuji to use the Tsubame Gaeshi, one of his special techniques. 15)"Their Respective Fights" Ishida tries a desperate measure to seal Fuji's Tsubame Gaeshi by using a hit of considerable strength called Hadoukyouu aimed straight at Fuji. Kawamura gets in the way and hurts his wrist returning the Hadoukyouu, forcing Seigaku to forfeit the match. 16)"Boomerang Snake" The Golden Pair wins their doubles match easily thanks to Kikumaru's acrobatics, it's now the time for the game between Kaidoh and Kamio. Kaoru's snake shot turned out to be ineffective against the speed ace from Fudomine, but in a moment of desperation Kaidoh perform an amazing yet impossible shot, that the audience called the Boomerang Snake. 17)"The Small Winning Pose" Kamio and Kaidoh's game becomes an endurance match but in the end Kaidoh's willpower outlast Kamio's stamina. Also Momo learns the identity of the girl he has been running into, who turns out to be Fudomine's player-coach Tachibana's younger sister Ann. 18)"Love Letter" Nanjiro Echizen finds a letter from Ryuzaki-sensei and remembers his days as a Seigaku regular, meanwhile the game heats up between Ryoma's Twist Serve and Ibu's Kick Serve, which is very similar to Ryoma's. 19)"Ryoma is Injured" Ryoma struggles to resist Ibu's "Spot" but when his racket got loose from his grip due to the "Spot",it rebound to hit his eye. With his eyelid bleeding it seems impossible for him to continue. Nevertheless he insist on continuing the match. 20)"Time Limit" Tezuka gives Echizen 10 minutes to finish the game, after which he will forfeit the match. Ryoma manages to overcome Ibu's "spot" and wins the match in less than 10 minutes. After tending to Echizen's wounds, the Seigaku regulars celebrated in Kawamura's sushi restaurant. 21)"Is the Tennis Court Heating Up?" Spies from other schools begin to observe Seigaku's training, and Momo and Ryoma teach two of the spies that playing tennis can be just as fun. 22)"Kaoru's Misfortune" While Momo and Kamio Akira butt heads with Atobe Keigo and Kabaji, Ryoma and Ibu Shinji battle over grip tape by creating a contest in which they catch a pickpocket. Kaidoh is unwittingly dragged into the mess. 23)"Appeared! Inui's Juice Deluxe" Kaidoh and Oishi are forced to drink Inui's special vegetable juice for losing in a special training match and become very sick. Tezuka drinks all of Inui's juice by mistake, so Inui is now forced to use his Golden Power Remix Juice on the loser in the Kikumaru-Ryoma match. 24)"Ryoma's Holiday" Ryoma is asked by Coach Ryuzaki to go to the racket-stringer with Ryuzaki Sakuno; Nanjiroh, Momoshiro, and the freshman trio spy on the supposed "date." 25)"The Strongest Man in Seigaku" Captain Tezuka risks his own health to challenge Ryoma to a match. He feels Ryoma's tennis is a copy of his father's game and wants Ryoma to aim higher. 26)"The Strongest Man in Seigaku (Part 2)" Oishi worries that Tezuka will injure his already weakened arm in his match against Ryoma. Meanwhile, the other team members, unaware of Tezuka's plan, grow suspicious. Here Tezuka said to Ryoma that he become “Seigaku’s pillar of support”. -=end of season 1=- 27)"Karupin's Adventure" Ryoma accidentally packs his cat, Karupin's, favorite toy in his tennis bag. Karupin follows him to school and explores the grounds. When Ryoma finds out his cat is on campus, he rushes to find him. 28)"A New Regular Appears!?" When Ryoma oversleeps before the match, Horio is forced to impersonate Ryoma, but he gets more than he bargains for when another player hears him bragging. Mizuki, the player-manager of St Rudolph, is introduced when he tells Akiyama, Seigaku's opponent, to target the Seigaku players' weak spots. 29)"Momo and the Viper" Momoshiro and Kaidoh are paired up to play Doubles 2 against St Rudolph's Kisarazu Atsushi and Yanagisawa Shinya even though the two are rivals. Ironically, however, they are compatible to each other since they know each other's strengths and weaknesses. 30)"Mizuki's Scenario" Momoshiro and Kaidoh struggle as the opponents know their strengths and weaknesses too well. However, the last ditch appearance of the Boomerang Snake throws Mizuki's carefully laid plans in disarray. 31)"Moon Volley" Momoshiro knocks out the St. Rudolph player Yanagisawa when his Dunk Smash hits the player by accident. Seigaku wins Doubles 2 by default. The Golden Pair takes to the courts against Kaneda and Akazawa. 32)"Super Move! Eiji's "Pretend to Sleep" Attack!?" Eiji runs out of energy and resorts to regaining his stamina by standing still on the court while Oishi plays both the St. Rudolph players for him.Eiji recovers at match point and saves it.. 33)"Tiebreak" Eiji recovers, and the gloden pair take it to a tiebreaker and have a run of three straight points when Eiji starts to lose his stamina again. St. Rudolph fight back and win the match, but Akazawa accepts they were lucky, while Mizuki starts to lose confidence in his data and predictions. Fuji Yuuta demonstrates his twist spin.

He quickly runs into trouble due to the Twist Spin shot of his opponent 35)"Drive B" Ryoma unveils his new move, Drive B, to counter the Twist Spin Shot.

But Momoshiro and Kaidoh are missing! 118) "Battle Ceremony" Momoshiro and Kaidoh vs. Bunta Marui and Jackal Kuwahara. 119) "Tightrope Walking Doubles" Marui's move is revealed.

However, having used it repeatedly while enduring Sanada's serves caused him to tire out and his eyes to hurt, so he continued the match with his eyes closed. Pushed by the need to fight for Yukimura (Rikkaidai’s captain), Sanada uses his “Invisible Serve”, a move that effectively hides his swing and the path of the ball. 128) "Conclusion ~ Which One will Win?" Ryoma, after temporarily losing his morale due to not being able to return the “Invisible serve”, eventually starts to feel the pressure from his peers and challengers. This, along with his desire not to lose, pushes him to go into the State of Self-Actualization and uses the techniques of other players.
