Izaki was always confident in school who had to work at being the best. It's very much a you get what you put in scenario. He's more than capable of rising to the task whether it's club or tennis. He also enjoys being contrary to others and seeing through their bullshit and bluster which is so refreshing. He doesn't even do it to show off, just because people's shallowness annoy him.
Hakamada is the quiet one. Still waters run deep asiding from the fact he always seems to look vapid. He's the prodigy in so much as things just come easily to him. He doesn't have to work or study and just manages to come out on top which is frustrating for Izaki who realizes he'll never reach that level no matter how hard he tries.
So there's a bit of a rivalry between them but not so much because Izaki knows he's got no chance of catching up. Although, he doesn't realize that Hakamada was never competing with him. And then there's Hakamada's attraction which Izaki can't understand at all.
This was a very cute little series mostly based on misconceptions that Izaki has held since high school >_> then when the relationship is beginning to mellow out he decides hes not going to see Hakamada until he's worthy of him which causes Hakamada to stake out outside his house in his Porche (I cannot believe he didn't notice a Porsche parked close to his home >_>. Hakamada decided to stop writing after Izaki broke up with him because he only started writing because he wanted to be worthy of Izaki (because when they were still in school he overheard Izaki saying he liked intelligent artsy people). In the end of it all all the misconceptions are cleared and they become quite the cute couple :D
