I was anticipating the sequel to be against NBA, close enough


It just wouldn't work out.

Kuroko no Basket relies on too much fake abilities and styles to even pit the characters against the NBA.

Besides, GOM would get murdered anyways if NBA players took them seriously.

The new "Dream Team" made up by the Generation of Miracles, Kagami and Kuroko it's just overpowered, Aomine with his 100% mid/close range shots, Midorima doesn't fail a 3 (we may see him failing one in this sequel though), Akashi the boss, Murasakibara awesome defense and offense, Kise the boss v2 because he can do basically anything the others can, Kuroko our loved passer which used to make 0 points per game and Kagami with extremely high skill for dunking and can also enter the zone basically when he wants to.

And stop comparing this to NBA, if this GoM was to go against an NBA team, the GoM would destroy it because they're basically all about fake abilities and styles. The game would be decided with just Midorima shooting 3s from their own paint. It's not even worth the time comparing, stop being dumb.

According to the color page their team is called Vorpal Swords which actually has sense when the American team is called Jabberwock. People really like Lewis Carroll http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorpal_sword
Noir… It is the name of an ancient fate. Two sisters who watch anime. The peace of the newly born, their black hands protect.

It's good and all that GoM and Kagami/Kuroko would team up but good gods does the villains have to be that stereotypical cartoonish american guys that we mostly see in this medium especially in this genre?

UGH!! I really can't wait to see the game! I mean, come on, Kagami and Aomine have GOT to have some streetball tricks up their sleeves! They did grow up playing bball in street courts right?! Specially Aomine!!

Kinda weird that Himuro didn't get to be on this special team ... he did grow up with Kagami, so he must have tricks, too? KYAH! Can't wait to see Kagami and Aomine playing bball with their own styles rather than be bound by rules!!

Heh it looks like it's back with Kuroko and the team in full force. I want to see how skilled those new guys are that were introduced in this chapter soon.

alright they gonna play against the americans just like how Eyeshield 21 final arc was


I should give Eyeshield 21 a try in the future.


I'm not saying that this is definitely the case but whenever I read KnB, I get the feeling that it is greatly inspired by Eyeshield 21.
e.g Kuroko's Vanishing Drive to Sena's Devil Bat Ghost
Akashi's ankle break to Akaba's Spider Poison
Kiyoshi to Musashi
Aomine to Agon.. but the latter has a worse personality
.. of course American Football is different from Basketball that's why Fujimaki cannot use most of Inagaki's ideas...


...and now an All Star(?) game between Japan and America.. I'm not saying it is bad. It's just that, for me, Eyeshield 21 manga (anime was too kiddified) outshines most of sports manga/anime that I've seen so seeing these few similarities leaves the impression that they're referencing from it.

Btw, Haikyuu and Slam Dunk are second best for me.. :D

P.S. Man, I really wish that somebody would do a remake of Eyeshield 21. I would prefer Production I.G. or Madhouse to do the deed.

Riko looks so cute in that hat.

The art is a bit different, awkward.

I feel like it's pretty damn stereotypical to make the Americans the gangsta type. At least Eyeshield 21 dealt head on with issues in their American team.

I loved seeing them all meet together haha, the rivalries. And Midorima with his lucky item. Why did you cut your hair, Kiseee. And I like long hair but Murasakibara needs a haircut. XP And Midorima looks weird with really short hair.

Wonder who the people on the bench will be?

Ugh, I had hopes that they would portray an American team without the stereotype BS but I'm used to this stuff from Japan by now.

Also since im black, geez did they really had to put a white guy as the team captain for a team for USA street basket? >.> ( yeah i used the stereotype )



Yeah, I've seen very few white people participate in streetball tournaments. But I'm not going to be upset at Japan for this one. Nash Gold JR. was a straight up douche in this chapter. So I guess I'm partially glad that the "douche captain role" wasn't given to a black dude because we already have enough bad streotypes.

I'M NOT SURE ON HOW TO REACT

I missed my Teiko babies and I'm glad that they are together... with the expected 'Versus The American' cliche.

But... But... But it was THISSSSSSS close to godmodding. It's not godmodding because it's Akashi-kun, though.


They have:
A guy that can shoot from anywhere
Two guys that can predict the future
Two overpowered beast
A guy that can copy any move (inculing parts of the moves above)
AND AN EQUIVALENT OF WALL MARIA TO BACK IT ALL UP




nicely said!!!
Btw isn't it time already for the 2nd chapter??
And their hairsyles are just something else

Don't get me started on the Zone.


I don't think you should call Murasakibara the equivalent of Wall Maria: that one crumbled. He's either the Colossal Titan or Levi with longer limbs.
