THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pretty relaxing episode overall. It was nice seeing the Generation of Miracles and especially Akashi in this. I just sure hope he does more in the third season, especially based on the material from the manga. On another note, I liked the bromance between some of the characters. |

Went by pretty quick, but it was a nice episode. I like seeing the interactions in teikou, and when they add scenes that weren't in the manga. Kurobasu never disappoints me, I'm anxious to see what they will add/fit into the third season. |

Yus, this was an enjoyable episode I like how we get more screen time form Akaishi, we even get so see him in action :D It was interesting to see how Aomine joined "the dark side of basketball" LEL Overall a really nice episode, hope to get more of these until the 3rd season! |

Nice to see the past of Kuroko and Aomine. It's was awesome when all the Prodigies are together, but Kagamine with complete them. They're soo cute. |

Nice episode, I liked seeing Aomine and Kuroko's first meeting. I wish they had showed more Akashi discovering/working with Kuroko's special ability but it was nice to see all of them together before things fell apart... :) |

For an OVA this was very good! It adds a lot to the history of Aomine and his relationship with Kuroko. We know that Kuroko has helped Aomine change in his view on basketball and it was nice to see that Aomine did the same for him when he was thinking of quitting. Aomine is also my favorite basuke so seeing more of him is always great. |

An OVA focused on my two favorite characters in the series :D It was nice to see this part of the manga animated. I'm gonna guess the 3rd season will cut out parts of the manga and finish up the story. |

This was really sad. :( I feel really bad for Aomine and Tetsu. It's just really heartbreaking to see the once happy-go-lucky Aomine turn into a cold-blooded person because of something that he loves. I used to hate Aomine in season 1 because of his attitude but eventually when his backstory was told I started to feel for him. Now, even more so after watching this. |

I always enjoy watching Aomine and Kuroko's interactions, especially back at Teikou. I like how Kuroko mentions that Aomine isn't the type of guy he would get usually get along with, but somehow they do get along. I think that's why I love seeing them as friends so much.

Agreed, hence why I like him the best (aside from Kuroko). Stop making me tear up Aomine D: |

Finally i can see this OVA. It's a great episode alright but there is one thing that made me a little bit confused. In this OVA they make akashi sounds like a "bad guy" but isn't this akashi is still a "good guy" back when aomine faced inoue? I guess there's a plot hole there in this anime original since i don't remember akashi said such things in manga. Anyway, overall it still a good ones. Nice to see the aomine and kuroko first meeting. |

Nice special XD A bit repetitive, as some of the scenes had already been shown, but still a nice special to watch. So, Akashi told Kuroko to focus his passes on Aomine uh? So he knew that Aomine was too strong for him and wanted Aomine to stop training? Just a theory though, but it kinda makes sense, given Akashi's shitty personality. |

Awww, that was so sweet seeing Aomine and Kuroko becoming friends! Still sad he stopped practising because people called him a monster because he was already so good and didn't want to become even better, Nice seeing all the Generation of Miracles play together. |

It was cool to see a more in depth look at Aomine's downfall, and why Kuroko cared so much about it happening |

Great special about Aomine and Kuroko's backstory. Man, they were a mean duo, the way they pummeled those teams was merciless, especially Aomine. But I felt he shouldn't have had any sympathy on his opponents, you play to win after all even if the opponents were crying like little bitches. I felt bad when he didn't want to fist pump Kuroko, things didn't feel like they ended how I wanted for me. Oh, well! Shoichi was such a dickwad when he first met Aomine! 8/10 enjoyed it. |

I like how well placed this episode was. It's right after episode 16 and before episode 17 from season 2. I guess something big is going to happen between Aomine and Kurokofor them to throw this sudden backstory at us. Also, Midorima looks cute as hell. |

the known were pretty boring, but the kuroko and aomine part were the important part ot it. the reason to be placed after ep16 probably because in ep16 he finally got his enjoying part of the game. |

Really liked this OVA, added to Kuroko & Aomine’s dynamics. They were such great friends! Middle school Kuroko & Aomine are EVEEEEEEERYTHINGGGGGGG!!!! Aomine’s smile is so precious. And Kuroko’s face was so cute lol Also how I wish the ED were available on Spotify :( |

Midorima catching Aomine hahaha, he feels like the papa of the team xD One of the most enjoyable OVA's and nice context for Seirin vs Touhou. Kuroko and Aomine becoming friends was so wholesome. Good times when he was still trying. I liked in particular how much he cared for Kuroko. Sad to see where his OPness brought him. Props to Akashi for discovering a talent. |

It was great to see more into the story of what happened to Aomine that wasn't shown in the episodes. I think it's a great addition that is worthy of this being Episode 41.5! |
