The Prince of Tennis is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Takeshi Konomi. The title is often shortened to TeniPuri, a portmanteau of the two parts in the Japanese pronunciation of the words "Tennis Prince". The manga was first published in Japan in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump in July 1999, and ended publication on March 3, 2008. A total of 379 chapters were serialized, spanning 42 volumes. As of volume 40, the manga has sold over 40 million copies in Japan. News that a sequel to the manga series was going to be developed was announced in the December issue of the Japanese manga magazine Jump Square. The new manga series, entitled New Prince of Tennis, began serialization in the Jump Square magazine on March 4, 2009, with the story taking place several months after the end of the original manga. Viz Media acquired the license to distribute the series in English in North America.

The series is primarily set in Tokyo, and centers around Ryoma Echizen, a tennis prodigy who attends Seishun Academy, or Seigaku for short, a private school famous for its strong tennis club and talented players. Ryoma quickly defeats numerous upperclassmen shortly after entrance to secure himself a spot as one of the team's regulars. In pursuit of their ultimate goal of winning the National Middle School Tennis Championship, members of the team make new friends while learning and mastering increasingly complex techniques. Ryoma also begins to develop his own style of tennis, and eventually realizes what the sport really means to him.

Tennis no Oji-Sama - Love of Prince Sweet: With Valentine's Day right around the corner, Konami included a bar of sweet or bitter chocolate with preorders in Japan. Unfortunately, our suppliers kept the sweets for themselves (for lunch, perhaps) but we'll see about getting some Hershey bars for our customers later in the day... Maybe. The game itself is a mix of interaction and music rhythm game where sprightly j-pop plays in the background.

Two versions are available - Sweet and Bitter which differ in the boy characters that are featured in each game.
