Kuroko no basuke

The basketball team of Teikō Middle School became known as the "Generation of Miracles" as they were unbeatable on their way to the top of Japan. After graduating from middle school, these five stars went to different high schools with top basketball teams. However, there was another player of the "Generation of Miracles", the phantom sixth player. This mysterious player, a freshman at Seirin High and the sixth member of the "Generation of Miracles", Tetuya Kuroko, and Kagami, a naturally talented player who spent most of middle school in America, are aiming to bring Seirin to the top of Japan, taking on Kuroko's old teammates one by one.

Kuroko no basuke tells the story of a young man named Kuroko who has a unique talent and decide to join the basketball team of his Highschool. I found this anime very interesting and really really good even if Basketball isn't my favourite sport. It is so good that I watched it a second time not too long ago. A unique anime that contains a lot of action and suspense all grouped up together to make an anime who will make you want to play Basketball! During the anime, Kuroko and his team will have to play against the best teams of the country and try to be the best team of Japan which is the ultimate goal of all the members of the team. 10/10

Quite an unbelievable storyline that never goes away. I much preferred haikyuu.

I actually really enjoyed this anime. I often found myself taken in by the concept and storyline. The characters were interesting and had some great interactions both as teammates and rivals. Where the show lets itself down is with the basketball itself. It was very unrealistic. The characters, specifically the "Generation of Miracles", had "super powers" rather than skills. I found that I became disengaged from the story due to this. It pulled focus too much at times. This is why I'm giving a 7/10. It was too enjoyable for a 6 but not enough quality to get an 8

I'm a die-hard basketball fan. I've watched a lot of basketball movies (Hoosiers, Glory Road, etc.) and the one thing they all have in common that absolutely bugs me is lack of defense in games. I lost hope and thought all basketball movies/TV shows were like that.

But, Kuroko's Basketball surprised me! Every character and team in the show displays tenacious, realistic defense in games! The characters and teams demonstrate strategic thinking, analytical observation, emotion, and heart within their games. I loved that! Basketball is mostly a mental game, like chess, and this show does that so beautifully! Every player, every team, every game has its own style and unique challenges! Every game is different, unique, and more entertaining than the last! Any game-winning play is never predictable--you're always in suspense and never know what'll happen until the game clock runs out! I loved the humor! Character interactions and awkward situations are hilarious! This show taps into a lot of your emotions. You'll laugh, you'll get angry, you'll be heart broken, and you'll be on the edge of your seat! When I say "super-powered basketball", I'm referring to how unique basketball skills and abilities are dramatized to look like superpowers. And it's awesome! Plus, characters get better and better throughout the series, and it's awesome to see them develop new exciting moves or new dominating abilities.

The music gets better and better every season! It sets the appropriate mood with precise timing.

You'll love this show!
