[[folder:Ken Kamaguruma]]
Cornerback of the Taiyo Sphinx who specializes in disrupting the opposing team's pass routine by bumping their Wide Receiver and knocking them off-balance for a few seconds.
* Position: Cornerback
* Jersey: 98
* 40 yard dash: 5.3 seconds
* Bench Press: 85 kg
----
* AlternateCharacterReading: ''Chariot'' was mistaken by Sena and Monta for ''Tank'' since they share similar readings (Sensha).
* ArtisticLicenseSports: His final play against Monta has Kamagurama tackling him from behind to prevent him from catching the ball Hiruma tossed. Once the Quarterback got the ball in the air, any attempt to interfere with the Wide Receiver during a pass results in a penalty and the opposing team automatically gets a First Down where the incident takes place.
* BoisterousBruiser: Compared to his more stoney and formal teammates, Kamaguruma is louder and more talkative in comparison, especially in regards to bumping. Though Kamaguruma is possibly the only skilled back on his team as once he hits the field, Kamaguruma severely crippled Deimon's ability to pass with his bumping.
* SignatureMove: Kamaguruma's "Chariot Bump" has him slamming into the Wide Receiver with all of his strength to unbalance and hinder them from receiving passes.
* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: Kamaguruma specializes in Bumping a little TOO much to the point where he can barely do anything else. To be fair, he is pretty good at what he does, just ask Monta.

* NotSoAboveItAll: Despite his stoicism, Banba was recruited by Hiruma for ''lots'' of silly activities, especially in the later parts of the series. It particularly comes out during the World Cup arc, where Sena notes Banba is "Unexpectedly getting into" joining everyone in holding up their footballs in front of the Statue of Liberty. Further in the same arc Banba also is not above joining the rest of the team in a pillow fight. See also his YoungerThanTheyLook entry below.

* SmugSnake: At the beginning of the Sphinx/Devil Bats match, Harao is so confident in his line's ability to protect him, he holds the ball straight up in the air with one hand (normally a very good way to force a turnover) while he patiently looks for a free receiver.

** Their campus buildings looked ''Egyptian''. While most of the other highschool campuses could be excused (e.g., the Ojo's European campus may not be that out of place if they're a Christian school; the Shinryuji's Buddhist campus was not that implausible given Japan's long Buddhist heritage), there really was no excuse for an Egyptian-themed campus in Japan.

Renowned for the "Pyramid Line", the Taiyo Sphinx had the [[MightyGlacier heaviest linemen]] of any Japanese highschool, which usually guaranteed them a place at the Kanto Regional Tournament. Their greatest weakness was their lack of decent players for the backfield. Nominally led by Quarterback Harao, the team was in truth under the control of Centre Banba, whose cool-headed leadership held the team together.
