What Think:
Shirota Yuu as Tezuka – Holy macaroni, I did not know he was this cute!! I like him with his glasses, he looks so cute! He looks so stoic; but then again his role was supposed to be stoic. He is the senior of the Prince of Tennis, so if here were the Prince of Tennis that I would be his princess! Haha! This jap-spanish dude is one hot commodity!
Kanata Hongo as Ryoma – He lacks depth too, he looks so lackadaisical in most scenes; he has no feelings in a lot of scenes. As I have not seen the anime version of this movie, I cannot compare both characters, is Ryoma supposed to be this young? I can hear his voice breaking...ha. But there is something about this boy that makes me say that he will go a long way in show business.
I like the background scenery so much; it is like a laid-back sub-urban school campus.
* Near the intro parts where Ryoma made all the tennis balls fly all over the court was pretty cool to the horror of the bully.
* The line “Mada mada dane.” Which means simply not there yet, I like that!
* Ryoma trying his new team jacket out and posing in front of the mirror, he looks so cute and wacky.
* The whole Segaku High School Tennis Team walking down the school aisle to the tournament matches---with Shirota Yuu leading, they look like a bunch of gorgeous children of the corn…hehehe!
* The soundtrack ---nice one too.

Shirota was born on December 26, 1985 to a Japanese father and a Spanish mother. Because his mother is Spanish, he lived in Barcelona, Spain until he was about 2 years old. He returned to Japan for elementary school and could still speak Spanish in ordinary conversation.
According to Shirota, when he was little, his family liked to sing songs, so he would borrow his older sister's keyboard, while his mother taught him piano; hus spawned Shirota's love for composing. He composed his first piece when he was in the fourth grade, titled the "The Tear.”
