Kenji quit playing soccer after his team was disqualified from a tournament due to a gang fight. However, like Kazuhiro, he was persuaded to join the soccer team. His goalkeeping abilities are exceptional, largely because he has an excellent sense of the ball's trajectory. He is hot-tempered and prone to picking fights; for instance, he clashed with Mahori when Mahori first joined the team. He is well-known for his "Moon Salto Save," a move he discovered later in the series. Using this technique, he defended the goal against Rudy's Wolf Shoot, making Kakegawa impenetrable. Indeed, throughout the series, he blocks many dangerous attacks with it, including his friend Toshi's Golden Shoot during their spare training.
