The match continues where it was left off, after trailing by 8 point, Kuroko and the gang tries to catch up against the opponent. It is always a surprise that some simple tactic and a slight change could change the tide of the battle. It’s very realistic and it does work in real life, as [...]

Alright this episode really reminds me more of Slam Dunk. Like seriously, the intense battle and the awesomeness of each of the key players is something that I was looking forward in the match. They deliver it quite well. With each of the players having their own personality that has a uniqueness of their own. [...]

「勝てねェぐらいがちょうどいい」 (kate ne e guraigachoudoi)
"It's Better if I Can't Win"
Given the abundance of wealth in every genre, it’s no surprise that sports shounen would be well-served this season too.

I’m not a fan of sports genre anime and I can probably name only three anime(s) that I liked namely Slam Dunk and the baseball duo* (Cross Game & Touch) by Adachi Mitsuru. Well, before Kuroko no Basuke aired, that is. I’ve been following this series ever since last year via its manga and I’ve [...]

So how did Kuroko do it? As in, how did he appear and disappear in pretty much every scene? I guess he is that fast ey. The series is still great and it’s not just the first episode(thank god!). It has its funny moments here and there but what is great about the show is [...]

OP: “Can Do” by GRANRODEO – I found the song actually good. I don’t know if it’s because it’s really good, but it really did fit to my taste. I could have this on repeat and get bored far longer than the other songs. Just… good, at least for me. For this basketball-themed anime, we [...]

Huh, I suddenly feel like playing basketball now… As a former, competitive basketball player, I feel compelled to check out any basketball anime or manga that comes my way. While I’m fine watching anime about sports I know next to nothing about, it’s comforting to watch something I actually know all the rules to without [...]

This anime is really a surprise. I didn’t expect something awesome would happen in this anime, but it did and it’s only the first episode. I have to say that this is currently the best first episode in the Spring season. This is how an introduction of an anime should be, it’s just great. The [...]

「黒子はボクです」 (Kuroko wa Boku desu)
"I am Kuroko"
I’m not sure if this is the series to break the long-standing record of sports shounen failing to make a splash at RC, but quality-wise it’s off to a pretty good start. And no one is going to blame me for lack of trying…

The air date has yet to be announced but the anime will be produced by Production I.G (whose previous works include Prince of Tennis) and [...]
