Ayumu Kadowaki (門脇 歩, Kadowaki Ayumu) is the only true member of the Shogi Club. He is a second year student at Honan Academy and is the 'reluctant' runner of the Stride Club. He is voiced by Hiro Shimono.
Appearance
Ayumu has neatly combined green hair and matching green eyes. He also wears wide silver framed glasses.
He wears a white jersey (with a thick blue and a thin red line running across the shoulders until the elbows and Honan Academy's emblem on the left) with a white-shirt underneath. He wears it with brown shorts and grey running shoes.
His school uniform consists of the black school gakuen which contains both jacket and pants and grey dress shoes.
Personality
Ayumu is a passionate Shogi player. He concurrently serves as the leader of the Shogi club and self-proclaimed "King" and, and is a Stride Club member. He was a relationer last year, and relayed information to Heath and Hozumi in the 2-on-2 race.
Skills
He is a very poor runner overall, not only because he is a dedicated shogi player, but because he was previously a relationer. However, due to his mental toughness, his speed and parkour skills are often overlooked (but in the anime, he actively avoids obstacles by running around them). As a shogi player, his mental game is above average, but he isn't quick-witted and can't deal with Kaede's barrage of questions about Kyosuke Kuga, and constantly have his sentences completed or lines stolen by Takeru.
Trivia
- Likes: Reading the Stride magazine "Stride Mania", Shogi, wandering around in bookstores and Green Tea Poured over Fresh Sea Bream and Rice.
- Dislikes: Actual training and weet Milk Coffee
- He has green hair and wears glasses (in reference to Daisuke Ono (Heath), who also voiced Shintarō Midorima of Kuroko's Basketball. Midorima also wears glasses with no rims on top, just like Fujiwara). Ayumu Is voiced by Hiro Shimono.
- In the PSV game, where Honan first faces off against , he would try to wind up opponents, especially Nagatsuka of Mihashi. The story he told was similar to what Midousuji told Imaizumi about a family member being in hospital.
- His last name 'Kadowaki' is only two characters away from 'Kadokawa' , the company that made the series.
