There is some controversy over who is depicted in this icon. The first few times I watched the trailer, I assumed, because of the way the racquet drags on the court, it was Oishi hitting the Moon Volley.

Upon closer inspection, I decided that it was Kaidoh hitting the Boomerang Snake. He crouches way down to hit, the same blue racquet appears here and in the very next shot, which is Kaidoh hitting the Boomerang, the vapour trail on the court matches between the two shots, and, of course, no socks. But it is part of a montage of special shots, so it's hard to be absolutely certain. What do you think?

ETA further evidence in favour of Kaidoh: later in the trailer, Ryoma hits the Boomerang Snake too and he also drags the racquet on the ground first. Okay, I have no more doubts.

Oh my god, the trailer fucking rules! I can't believe how excited it made me to watch that. I'm finally warming to Shirota as Tezuka, too.

And Sainei Ryuji is going to be amazing as Atobe. Time to finish up Dekaranger so I can let go of him as Ban.

Whee!

ETA: I just realised that when I sat down at the computer, I was going to write an entry about watching Millennium (TEOTWAWKI) and BSG (33) tonight and how amazing BSG is and how I miss Frank Black every day and how sweet Barry Baldwin and Giebelhouse played off each other and about Roslin and Adama and Tigh. Actual serious grown-up thoughts.

But the gay tennis boys drove all that out of my head.
