Kaoru KaidoKaoru Kaido (海堂 薫 Kaidō Kaoru) is a fictional character in the anime and manga The Prince of Tennis. His name is rendered Kaoru Kaidou in the original Japanese anime, and Kaoru Kaido in the English manga. Kaido's nickname is "Mamushi" or the "Viper," which fits him well. He wears a bandana and often exhales making a "sssss" sound, similar to a snake. Understandably, Kaido does not like this nickname, and often reacts badly when called that within earshot, especially if the person uttering the nickname is Takeshi Momoshiro. His signature move is the "snake," a curving forehand that keeps his opponents running. He later develops the "boomerang snake," which is a shot that swerves out of bounds, around the net pole, and back in bounds. Kaido trains rigorously, increasing the training program given to him by Sadaharu Inui to give him unbeatable endurance. Both he and Takeshi Momoshiro are second year regulars and rivals. They constantly try to one-up each other, which is actually beneficial for the growth of their tennis skills. Surprisingly enough, this makes them extremely powerful as a doubles pair, because the two rivals know each other so well. Kaido and Sadaharu Inui also make an excellent doubles pair.
