Anzai Sensei

Anzai sensei is the coach and the one responsible for bringing Shohoku Team to its first ever trip to Inter High School Games. At his young age, he's once a national player and coach of national teams. One of the most respectable coach in Japan history, but behind his holy looks, who ever thought that he once called the "devil Buddha." For the reason that he's strict in training his players and fierce some as you look at him. He changed instantly when one of his promising students "Isegawa" (not sure of the spelling) went to America to improve his skills. Later on he read in a newspaper that he passed away. Since that day he become unstrict to his players and quit coaching college national teams anymore. He found happiness both to Sakuragi and Rukawa for they improve their skills fast in a short period of time. With a great coach handling a very talented team, Shohoku will about to change the course of history with Anzai leading them to it.
