5. Chihiro Mayuzumi
Although not as prominent as the other team members, Chihiro Mayuzumi is an interesting player. He is very similar to Kuroko who has a thin air of presence. Because of this, Akashi trusted him to be a shadow player like Kuroko.
Mayuzumi is able to use Kuroko's mainstay techniques, such as Misdirection and Invisible Pass. However, he could be said to be the newest, stronger version of Kuroko. His ability made Rakuzan dominate the match against Seirin.
