Kuroko no Basket

I am going to make this easy...... This is one of the best sports animes ever created, period! It is also one of the best animes I have ever watched. Even if you are not a sports fan you will enjoy this show.

Watch or watch not, there is no try. ;-)

Don't miss this one.

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

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

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!

The anime's story is fabulous. The story's composition is really amazing. The story goes like The Teiko Junior High basketball team rose to distinction by demolishing basketball teams within Japan, winning the junior high Nationals for three consecutive years. The all-star players of the team became known as the Generation of Miracles. After graduating from middle school, the five star players went to different high schools with top basketball teams. However, a fact known to few is that there was another player in the "Generation of Miracles": a phantom sixth man. This mysterious player is now a freshman at Seirin High, a new school with a powerful, if little-known, team. Taiga Kagami - a naturally talented player who spent most of middle school in the US, aim to bring Seirin to the top of Japan and begin taking on Kuroko's former teammates one by one with the help of kuroko. I recommend every anime lover.
