* {{Expy}} : In some ways to the [[Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis Yamabuki Middle School Men's Tennis Club]].

Kuryuin is the first of Kijikita's opponents in official TournamentPlay to fit the OpposingSportsTeam archetype [[note]]the other team being Kijinan, whom Kijikita faced earlier in a friendly match[[/note]], in that while the other members of the team are at best pretty average but more rules-savvy than most teams in the series, their two best players [[HugeSchoolgirl Takenou]] and [[IdolSinger Amane]] often employ [[TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty dirty tactics to get ahead of the opposition]], which runs counter to the fair play and TeamSpirit philosophy of most of the other teams in the series so far.

The current roster of the Kuryuin High School Girls Football Club.

[[folder: In General]]
--> Team Colors : Blue and Orange
--> Team Symbol : [[UsefulNotes/{{France}} Fleur-de-lis]]
--> Formation : 4-3-3

Kijikita's semifinal opponents, Kuryuin is a dark horse team like Kijikita which is mostly composed of average players but has made it this far thanks to the dynamic duo of Mirai Takenou and Tatamaru Amane, together known as the Wild Cats, a footballing duo that dominates the local futsal circuit.

Kuryuin is the first of Kijikita's opponents in official TournamentPlay to fit the OpposingSportsTeam archetype [[note]]the other team being Kijinan, whom Kijikita faced earlier in a friendly match[[/note]], in that while the other members of the team are at best pretty average but more [[GenreSavvy rules-savvy]] than most teams in the series, their two best players [[HugeSchoolgirl Takenou]] and [[IdolSinger Amane]] often employ [[TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty dirty tactics to get ahead of the opposition]], which runs counter to the fair play and TeamSpirit philosophy of most of the other teams in the series so far.
----
* CombatPragmatist : The Wild Cats' general strategy, which has also been adapted to a slight degree by the other Kuryuin players, in that the team is mostly composed of average players who are capable of [[LoopholeAbuse gaming the system]] to hide illegal plays and fish for favorable calls for themselves and unfavorable ones for the opposing team.
* {{Expy}} : In some ways to the [[Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis Yamabuki Middle School Men's Tennis Club]]. Both are pretty average teams turned dark horses thanks to their respective dynamic duos, and one of their top players (Akutsu and Takenou, respectively) have rather wild streaks and play very aggressively.
* KeystoneArmy : Relies heavily on their two best players Takenou to make their way through the tournament.
* UnnecessaryRoughness : Pretty much a key strategy of the Wild Cats, with Amane intentionally stepping her opponents' feet and Takenou [[FoeTossingCharge bulldozing her way through the opposition]].

!Kaon Nanasato
--> Position : Goalkeeper
--> Number : 1

A Kuryuin third-year student and goalkeeper of the girls' football team. She is quite fast given her short stature, and organises her defence so that they can hold up opponents in the box. Kaon then quickly nips in to steal the ball from under their feet.

!Aki and Maki Satta
--> Positions : Right Center Back (Aki) and Left Center Back (Maki)
--> Numbers : 2 (Aki) and 12 (Maki)

Two Kuryuin second-years who play center backs for the girls' football team. Aki and Maki are two of the Satta triplets on the team, and Aki is the team captain. Their other identical sister Saki plays central midfielder for the team.
----
* AddedAlliterativeAppeal : The triplets are named Aki, M'''aki''' and S'''aki'''.
* SupportingLeader : Despite being team captain, she really doesn't contribute much compared to their dynamic duo of Mirai and Tatamaru.

--> Position : Defensive Midfielder
--> Number : 6

--> Blood Type : B
--> Height : 190cm
--> 3 sizes : B90/W73/H97

The bigger half of Kuryuin's dynamic duo "Wild Cats" that dominate the local street futsal scene. Her massive size and physical style of play makes her a fearsome force in the midfield and a pillar of strength for Kuryuin.
----
* AmazonianBeauty
* AmbiguouslyBrown : Despite being Japanese, readers keep mistaking her for a different nationality (such as Brazilian or African) due to her massive size, tanned skin, and MismatchedEyes.
* BashBrothers : With Amane.
* CombatPragmatist : ''Very'' pragmatic, to the point of breaking Mai both physically and mentally, punching out Mitsu like ATwinkleInTheSky, and kicking Chidori ''holding the ball'' just to score a goal.
* FoeTossingCharge : Does this to her opponents pretty often, to the point of being TheJuggernaut.
* ForceAndFinesse : Definitely the Force to Amane's Finesse.
* GameFace : Like Amane, she is shown with a glint in her eye and a grizzly smile whenever she decides to LetsGetDangerous.
* KnightOfCerebus : She alone is the reason why their semifinal match against Kijikita is easily the most brutal in the series so far. She strikes so much fear into her opponents that she caused [[HeroicBSOD a massive breakdown]] on a ''very'' free-spirited Mai.
* LightningBruiser : Regularly swats her opponents away like a truck and can even keep up with much smaller opponents like Mai and Chidori.
* MismatchedEyes : Yellow left eye and blue right eye.
* OneHeadTaller : Than pretty much ''everyone else'' in the series, and is much wider too.

!Saki Satta
--> Position : Right Central Midfielder
--> Number : 16

A Kuryuin freshman who plays right central midfield for the girls' football team. She is the youngest of the Satta triplets, with the two older sisters playing the back for the team.

!Mahiru Hayami
--> Position : Striker

A Kuryuin second-year who plays striker for the girls' football team. She admires the Wild Cats for transforming Kuryuin into a regional powerhouse upon their arrival.
----
* {{Expy}} : Mahiru is basically [[Manga/ThePrinceOfTennis Dan Taichi]] if he were a female high school football player. Both wear headbands, are basically the {{Joke Character}}s for their respective teams, and admire their top players and aspire to become as good as them.
* GenkiGirl : Can be very excitable while playing but is still able to speak formally. She keeps running around while playing but her teammates rarely pass the ball to her because she is not that good, especially compared to the Wild Cats.
* JapanensePoliteness : Prefers speaking formally and with honorifics.
* MartialArtsHeadband
* ThrowTheDogABone : InUniverse, she thinks Mirai is doing this for her whenever she deflects hard passes off her on purpose, but in fact this is to pass the ball to her partner Amane.

!Amane Tatamaru
--> Position : Left Winger
--> Number : 11

The bigger half of Kuryuin's dynamic duo "Wild Cats" that dominates the local street futsal scene. Outside of the pitch, she is an IdolSinger named "Ame" who commands a large audience despite her young age.
----
* BattleInTheRain : Loves playing in the rain, as it actually ''boosts'' her speed and football skills.
* BirdsOfAFeather : The reason why she is a TrueCompanion to Mirai is that she considers Amane to be a fighter like herself.
* CombatPragmatist : Like Mirai who regularly [[FoeTossingCharge tosses off opponents like ragdolls]], Amane is not above stepping on her opponents' feet to get ahead of the game.
* GameFace : Like Mirai, she is shown with a glint in her eye and a grizzly smile whenever she decides to LetsGetDangerous.
* IdolSinger : Outside the pitch, she is a rather popular teen idol.
* MeaningfulName : Her idol name "Ame" literally means "rain", matching her love for [[BattleInTheRain playing in the rain]].
* {{Narcissist}} : Beneath her upbeat and bubbly IdolSinger persona, she considers other people beneath her and is not above breaking the rules to succeed both in football and in life.
