Who is Masao Tachibana?
One of the Flying Twins from the Akita prefecture. In elementary school, although their positions were forwards, they primarily serve as midfielders. Along with Ishizaki, they are called the Japan's monkeys because their faces look like monkeys. Their Skylab techniques are excellent acrobatic skills, however, they also increases the burden or risk of getting injured, thus the chance to play is not stable. Captain Tsubasa Wiki
