Akira Nakabou ( Chuubou )

Akira "Chuubou" Nakabou is a middle school student who participated in the World Youth Cup under Team Japan. He greatly admires Sena Kobayakawa's running so he wants to join the Deimon Devil Bats when he attends Highschool. Although he admires Sena's running, his position on the team is as a linebacker. His given position seems to be a wise decision because he is able to perform the "Delta Dynamite," a block that needs precise timing which hits three points and causes the victim to lose balance(judging from chapter 311, when Chuubou uses the Delta Dynamite and stops Yamato and at the same time throws him off balance). In the same chapter, Gaou exhibits interest in Chuubou after seeing his move. After the game against Russia, Gaou challenges Chuubou, which results in the latter losing. This causes Chuubou to train using the "Delta Dynamite," and eventually he teaches his senior and fellow linebacker the technique. During the aftermath of the World Youth Cup, Chuubou finally becomes a member of the Deimon Devil Bats team.
