Right...... the most suprising thing in this ep is deffinately at the end where they say that 'that' guy is their captin...... really unpredictable!!! But cool!!!

I understand why Aomine was so depressed when he was having the match..... (people should never give up at the middle of the game!!.... even if you know that you are loosing or you are going to loose..... to fact that you just give up on playing the game when you still are in the middle of it is just toooooo annoying!!)

can't wait till next ep!!

Luv Tetsuya #2 (The dog ^.^ ) also Kuroko :D

wonderful episode, i love to get flashbacks of their time at Teiko and to see how Aomine changed

and I died inside when Aomine rejected Kuroko's fist bump /sobs
the scenes with Kuroko and Aomine were perfect as well, god how I love these two

Sakurai isn't Touou's captain (that's Imayoshi, the guy with the glasses), I think he just meant he's the "captain of shooting" :D

I much prefer Kuroko and Kagami : )

I do agree with Aomine though, that giving up is the worst anyone can do, even if it seems hopeless, people should keep trying till the end; otherwise its no fun.

I really hope Seirin wins, but....seems unlikely. However, if they lose, I hope its not by a lot.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Is it just me or did the animation seem different somehow from previous ones? Kind of more sudden movements and and... I can't even explain it but it was a little weird and didn't seem in the 'spirit' of what was done till now. Maybe it's just due to lack of sleep on my part and things moving too quickly. =P

Besides all that great episode. =) This is going to be a great match for sure!

IS IT JUST ME OR WAS THIS EPISODE THE BEST ANIMATED UP TILL NOW???

Okay what I really liked was that they put in lots of the families of the seirin members, it was really cute especially Riko's Dad ... |D"" [but well I'm in love with everyone so mhh... yeah ... ]

ah yeah and Kurokocchi + Nigou * v * !!

oh and lots of Teikou Past <3

P.S.: is this just me or is everything in KuroBasu just perfect starting with the "Teikou Yuu Gakou Basuketo Boru Bu" = v = ""

Does Seirin even have 1% chance of winning? ._. i mean, it's kinda sure they will win, since they are ''main team'' in this anime, but it really looks hopeless for now.Kagamine can't jump for sure, and Kuroko without someone strong can't do much as well + there's still no Aomine.

+ me wants more Momoi ♥

There's a reason I adore this series and that will be explained after this match ends. It's not like a lot of other series :).

Lol Aomine cracks me up, such a lazy ass. Loved seeing more Teikou scenes animated. That school is still a mystery to me and it's driving me insane.

OP seemed even more epic, I just noticed that some of the middle parts were changed which I think is cool. ED was the same but I still can't get over how cool it is. And the eye catcher at the end? Squeeee! So cute~

Another great episode :)

I'm loving the animated scenes between the generation of miracles at Teiko. Really does explain how their personalities changed to become what they are now. Also love how theres that time limit before Aomine comes, puts pressure on Seirin to score as much as they can before Aomine arrives.

The amount of emotions in this anime is too damn high. It gives me goosebumps.

Lol at Riko calling her dad a pervert. It pretty much felt like the relationship I have with my father.

Also, cute ending illustation. As always.

I'm so glad they improved some of the transition scenes in the OP! I still kinda miss the old one but I really like the added focus on the Generation of Miracles.

I felt so bad for Kuroko's unreturned fist bump too. :( I really hope Seirin manages to win somehow... that's pretty cocky of Aomine to think he can skip the first half and still sweep the game, but he'll definitely be a tough opponent to beat. I can't wait for the next episode! And Tetsu No. 2 just keeps getting cuter each episode. :3

I think they're going to loose this one. >__> Then they'll have to go up against the other school for the final spot in the championship, and then that match will end the Anime. Haven't read the manga and i'm not knowledgeable on Basketball, but it's just a hunch.
Despite beating the other teams, this one is too ridiculously strong.

Aside from that, i loved this episode. Seeing what happened during the Generation of Miracles' time in the famous middle school that keeps getting mentioned at the beginning of each episode is always interesting to see.
Can't wait for next week.
Strangely enough what got me to disliking Aomine was not his arrogance, but his taking of the "I'm sorry!" guy's food. Not cool.

Seeing more of the Teiko team's past was great. Aomine, Kise and even Midorima seemed to get along very well. Aomine has changed heaps though. Being insanely strong against everyone and he ends up thrashing them, finding basketball boring. So that's why he's always lazing around as if he doesn't give a crap about anything. Gotta feel sorry for him since he doesn't have a rival on the same level as him, yet anyway. Can Kagami level with him in the game? :D

Touou Academy seemed like they were weak but they are damn strong even without Aomine. Even the guy that makes his own lunch that looked like his 'sister's' can shoot a 3. They seem like really good opponents.

'After shower scene' with Momoi was nice. She's pretty damn fine LOL. The best scenes in this episode were probably showing all the Seirin players getting ready for the game in the morning:
-Hyuua jogging early in the morning, as expected from the captain.
-Izuki having breakfast, his mother was pretty funny.
-Mitobe has one HUGE-ASS family with heaps of siblings LOL. He's a great brother!
-Koganei being a lazy ass staying in bed and LMAO @ his mother, having the same ':3' face as him.
-Riko staying up late figuring out a plan. ROFL @ her father and the 'you forgot your panties'
-Tsuchida going to school, trying to be friendly to a stray cat and starts biting his hand. Haha!
-Kagami shooting hoops. And getting so pumped for the match (HECK YEAH, I got pumped here)
-Kuroko with Tetsuya #2. xD

So pumped for the next episode. Love Sundays. Kuroko no Basket, Sword Art Online and Kokoro Connect <3

It is really sad watching the players who do so well becoming something worse for all their victories. I'm not entirely sure I feel comfortable about how each of them seem to be reminded of their roots of playing basketball for the enjoyment of it thanks to losing. But it is all done with such great humor and passion that it is only a minor thought tugging at me.

Manga readers, is this following the manga still?
I barely started and I don't want to get too far ahead yet.

I heard they changed the part where they found the Kuroko look alike dog.

I don't want spoliers or anything, just wondering if it was going the same way as the manga.
Thanks anyone if you know :D


Well, in my eyes it's following it perfectly so far. Sure, there's small things like when #2 makes his appearance but those are minor. Keep up with the manga because it's so freaking amazing *fangirls*

I think any real changes would come at the end. I don't know how they're going to try and end this series but it better not leave me disappointed because this anime is like in my tops right now and if they completely change it then I'm gonna be SUPER pissed.

But yeah, plot-wise it's pretty close at the moment.

I wonder how this match will end. I totally agree that it seems impossible for Seirin to win, but they beat Shutoko and Kaijou so yeah. But it would probably take a miracle or something for them to beat Touou.

Oh god. The game'll probably take 2 episodes or 3 again like the previous games.

I hate you cliffhangers. :(((

Let's see how this turns out.
And I hope they beat Touou.

But there's one thing I'm angry about. Maybe I watch too much anime but the animation has gone down since episode 10. what gives, Production IG?

The episode was pretty good. I liked Aomine's background, it's good to see that he wasn't always this arrogant jerk that he is now (still, he is awesome).

I'm just wondering if the other two players from GOM will appear or not (haven't readed the manga), since they're on the OP and ED.

Overall, great episode. Can't wait for Aomine vs Kagami.

Nice caption of the players' families, some are quite funny like Koganei's :3 mom or Riko's perverted dad ... lol.

So glad they fixed the OP animation, to be expected since they fixed the first ED too (compare first ep's ED with 10th ep's ED way better the 10th). I'm starting to like the OP song, with new animation the OP now have better impression overall.

Oh and about the ED, I noticed how the 'replaceable' scene is now the few seconds after Teppei-Midorima and Kuroko-Kagami caption. In the previous episode it shows Kagami going outside a house, with Kuroko standing near a line of kindergarten kids with Tetsu #2 (I'm not sure whose house is that though, or why there are kids there, or why Kuroko is also there), meanwhile in this episode we see Riko and Hyuuga waiting for the team members outside Aida Gym with Izuki sitting while reading, and Kagetora (Riko's father) colliding with glass-wall of his own gym.

Btw, did anyone noticed how similar looking Akashi is with Sasori from Naruto?
