I think everyone complaining about the zone forget a few things.

#1. It's a manga we all read.

#2. They're high school basketball players in the biggest championship game of their lives. Despite character personality of the GoM, Seirin beat them all. All Seirin players have EVOLVED zone is about LOVING basketball why shouldn't they acquire it. Do they not LOVE basketball as much as Rakuzan?

#3. There is no way Kuroko and Seirin lose I smell OT. Super Zone team battle, then zone dissipates and love or some bs wins them the match.

#4. We all cry and go home saying what a beautiful movie.

I'm betting on Rakuzan to win though.

Nah, theres still 5 minutes from the game. Thats like an eternity. Rakuzan will be in the zone for like 1 minute at most. Coz Seirin, duh....

That new (but for real - old) Akashi was *.*
I see... So all of them were in the zone, huh?
Kuroko - now it's your turn, especially for the zone.

This is getting more and more ridiculous.

How come Mayuzumi can get into the zone when Himuro couldn't?

Utterly ridiculous. I just hope you have a reasonable explanation for this, Fujimaki.

He didnt have any reasonable explanation for anything during this final. Why would he have now? :D


he doesnt fucking care about the rules he set himself for certain things like the zone anymore. its seems the only requirement to enter the zone now is that you play basketball.

the last page ruined the chapter and did some damage to the manga itself.

That was bullshit.But finally actually hyped for the rest of the remaining match now.

Time for Kuroko to use Zone Overflow.

Oh boy, that last page really brought out some mixed responses from me. The ideal PG thing for Akashi was pretty awesome. But that whole-team ZONE! Gah...I guess I'll see how this goes like I have been doing for this whole game. Really though, winning against Rakuzen w/o zone seemed pretty damn difficult earlier on in the game. With the zone, that just seems like too much for Seiren. Hmmm....well, I await the next chapter.

So if the manga continues past this match, what's going to happen then? Full 5 v 5 Zone matches? Next year's first years are going to have superpowers? The manga will just have to keep getting more ridiculous and unrealistic at this point if they want to still have challenges for Seirin...

Lol, this series was so good before now it just keeps getting shittier every chapter. I hope the author ends the manga soon. Is this even selling anymore with this much bullshit? Oh god, I used to love this series.
Same with me, this is just getting ridiculous. At the beginning, everyone had their niche that they were good at that make them good to the team and it was working together and believing in each other that made Seirin win. They used "Kuroko's Basketball" of teamwork against the Generation of Miracles individualistic style of play. Ever since after the Kagami v Aomine match, it just started to get to the point of one upping each other with powers and less about the whole theme of the anime (although it still has sparks of teamwork here and there).

KnB is about japanese high school basketball players with superpowers, it's not like I expect much logic but generally the explanations were surprisingly clever... Now, this is fucking overkill lmao

It successfully got my blood pumping (which is all I want KnB to do) and even though I didn't see any way Seirin would lose the final game with the third years beforehand considering this is a shounen, I have some doubts now...

But pretty much I still think Kagami will enter the second level of the zone and take over

I bet Rakuzan's fans are in the zone too. Even the referee is in the zone. Heck, even the readers got the zone by just reading the last page! Free zones for everyone!

Sigh... this manga is getting ridiculous with its overusage of the zone when it's said to be only for those who are "talented in basketball"

Is this gonna be like Dearboys again where the main characters lost in the end? Because there is no way Seirin would still be able to win after all of Rakuzan's members going zone. Fujimaki had to pull some kind of Deus ex Machina in order for that to happen. Kuroko's whole team going zone too? Kagami going super saiyan 2? Riko going zone? A meteorite drops on the fucking court so the match is actually cancelled?

I know. It will be draw at the end. So there will be 5 more minutes extra time to make it bigger....then he will have time to figure out what to do...

Have to say, I just read a couple of vols back to back to get to this point and... yeah I am saddened, this is becoming like Air gear all over again >_>''
Sure it's still a great series, one I would like to own and all but COME ON, Super Saiyain Syndrome has struck another shonen manga.

Akashi isn't fun anymore, he is just Broly, he was great for the movies but way too OP for the canon.
I mean would you believe that Seirin could win at the moment without coming up with a superpowered heroic second wind.

Seirin shouldn't win, but then they have the ultimate defence.....plot armour.

It's been a while since I stopped caring about the superpower stuff, they can start flying during a match and I probably wouldn't be surprised.
Despite how over the top was the ending with the zone thing, it's really hyped me for the next chap, especially after saw the kicking ass looking on their faces.

Well this is kind of tiring. I really liked that the Original Akashi was so naturally skilled, but his special ability just had to be even more over the top and unfair than the other Akashi's. =/

because since chapter 265, I went from thinking Seirin had a chance of victory to no chance at all.

+1 to that.

As for the whole team zone, I'd like to think that it's because the real Akashi, who is heavy on team play, managed to bring the best out of all the other players, making them more focused than ever, thus enable them to enter the zone unconsciously.
