Amane Hikaru, or known as David, is well-known for single-handedly beating Hyoutei Gakuen's pre-regular players during a practice match. It is no doubt that he is one of the strongest players in the team, despite being a sophomore. While he is really serious in playing tennis, off-court, he is no match for his doubles partner and senpai, Kurobane, whenever he attacks him after giving a bunch of lame jokes and puns.

The fourth tallest player on the team and the de facto captain. Shun is the first character to admit there is a real &quot;Eyeshield 21&quot; playing football at Notre Dame prep school, of which Sena (who was made into an &quot;Eyeshield 21&quot; from Notre Dame by Hiruma) was not according to him. Shun had gone to school in America during his middle school years, losing interest in football due to the size advantage of his American counterparts and quitting the game because of it. After seeing the Japanese player from Notre Dame in action, Shun became determined to play again, to the point where he went up against Eyeshield 21. The encounter inspired him to train with new enthusiasm as he promised to meet up with him again at the finals. However, when the next game against Notre Dame finally came around, Eyeshield 21 was nowhere to be found. Shun asked around for his whereabouts, but no one seemed to know who he was or even if he existed. Shun claimed that Sena was a fake, since the Eyeshield he knew was far taller. He then declared to defeat the Devil Bat's imposter. He later admits that Sena is deserving of the title of Eyeshield 21 and tells him to keep fighting until the final game. Because Shun is consistently seen as serious, he seems to be dogged by his teammates immature actions. But because he appears used to it, he can even ignore the fact that Sena, Monta and his other teammates were trying to stop Mizumachi from peeking at the bathhouse (and making a big fuss out of it) before he who were then pushed right through the wall by Urashima, Kyoshin's cheerleader vice captain. Later, when Deimon plays the Bando Spiders, Shun seems to hint that player Akaba Hayato is the Eyeshield 21 from Notre Dame.

40-yard-dash: 5.4 seconds  Bench-press: 50 kg  Position: Quarterback  Jersey Number: 8  3rd Year Student (Grade 12)   Harao is the quarterback of the Taiyou Sphinx. He bosses everyone around and puts the blame on them until Banba sets him straight. For some reason, he's popular with the ladies and has his own harem. He acts like a pharaoh. However, compared to Hiruma, his skills as a quarterback are substantially less. His over-dependence on the Pyramid Line has made him slower and less able to avoid sacks. If he can't find a receiver, then he will just stand in place, rather than try to run the ball himself. He also tends to hold the ball too high when passing, which can lead to fumbles when he's tackled.   Though he appears to be an arrogant snob, Harao is actually quite sensitive about his skills as a quarterback. He knows that others consider him as a second-rate player; even his own team members think so. Like Sakaruba was, Harao is seen as the ace of the team by his fans, though his skills do not match that of his image. He admits to Banba that since the game against Deimon he has been trying to improve himself, but he still has doubts. Especially since every Kantou Tournament the Sphinx participate, but never win due to the other teams being like monsters. Like Banba, this will be his third and last Kantou Tournament. Banba assured him that the new Tutankhamen's Mask formation would protect him, so all he had to do was throw the ball.   (Source: Wikipedia)
