| Grimmjow finally has his revenge on Ichigo. :) It's weird that Kise's perfect copy was the worst animated and most rushed part of the match. I sure it's because Kise will be shining later and this match was meant to be Haizaki-centric (because of his seiyuu), but it's still disappointing that one of the best chapters in the entire manga wasn't as well-animated/directed as I hoped it would be. The additional flashbacks involving Haizaki throughout the 2 episodes made him seem less of a throwaway character. And the scene of him choosing not to give up on basketball (by not throwing away his shoes this time) was a more fitting end to his arc (although some might say less deserving) than lying unconscious on the ground. |

| Haizaki got what he deserved. Epic punch by Aomine. |
 |
| this was one of my favourite matches in the manga, but i feel like it was a bit rushed. still loved it though. cant wait for next episode, my actual #1 favourite match, finally get to see akashi play! |
| I feel a bit rushed,. If they have to end everything in this season then its ok.. :) |
 |
| Finally time to see Akashi in action, it was about time. Anyway, pretty good episode, I'm happy they didn't pull out the "zone" thing again. |
 |
| I can't wait to finally see Akashi's first match animated. Also, I was wondering how they would pull the perfect copy off, not too shabby. |
"You either die an Ashita no Joe, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Naruto."  |
| pretty good episode, it was nice to see kise copying the generation of miracles' moves. i kind of hoped he'd copy some of kuroko's too though lol so, next week we'll finally see akashi in action? |
 |
| Am I the only one saying poor Haizaki ? I know he's a douche. But the real douche here is Akashi. I know deep down Haizaki loves basketball. Hopefully he learn his lesson this time. He just needs to calm his balls. |
| So, at this pace, the will be another season. |
| Aomine just did the entire world a great favour. Kept replaying that scene. Somehow I felt like the last quarter of the match was very anticlimactic. Kise doing his "Perfect Copy" was awesome for that moment and then... BOOM. End of match. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| Thank you Aomine! Good episode. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Well, those 20 points came back fast. Why would Haizaki change his hair style so drastically. Good episode. |
 |
| I saw the preview ... Guess next episode straight to the game between Shutoku & Rakuzan + Kaijou & Seirin |
| Finally we will see Akashi and Rakuzan playing ! Can't wait |
| Bit of a weird anticlimatic transition from Haizaki trying to injure Kise, and then the team winning. But apart from that, a good episode. Finally get to see Akashi play soon |
| So going by the conversation flash back with Kuroko and Haizaki, Haizaki warned Kuroko that there are evil people in the world then showed Akashi. I find that really interesting add that to the bit we learned when Aomine taught Kuroko how to shoot when he talked about how Akashi taught Kuroko so he should of been able to fix Kuroko's shooting its really looking like Akashi won't just be the final 'boss' but more of an actual villain. Although thats all just my opinion based on everything thats happened so far can't wait for these next 3 matches! |

| Kise is the invincible copy master! His skills at the maximum power are unbelievable. So now rest the four school with five huge monsters! ^.^ |

| Akashi vs Midorima next week Aomines knockout punch.LOL |
| why best character always lose :( |
 |
| Daiki's was able to knockout Haizaki with 1 to the face. Nice. Can't wait to see Rakuzan in action. Good job Kise. That was op. 5/5. |

| Aomine's the most badass after all. Great OST at the end of the match. Seems like the next episode will be funny. |
 |
| Haizaki gets OHKO'd by Aomine 10/10 |
| Fun episode overall. I knew Kise'd have a trick up his sleeve, that damn saiyan! And Aomine decking Haizaki was pretty cool too. :D |
 |
| Well, I think that's sudden that the match is settled. Anyway, good job Aomine on punching Haizaki. |
 |
| It's about time to see Akashi in action,the guy with the most OP ability. Nice ep,but I feel that the previous one was done better. |
| this episode's pure of sh*t.... |
| well that went by quick |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| Felt like the animation didn't do the perfect copy justice. It is the most OP ability in the manga. I was expecting bright, flashy colours, lightning bolts being fired throughout the court, and epic trails left behind as the ball whizzes through the air at lightspeed... but maybe I had too high expectations :( |
| You guys seriously love the ridiculousness Kise got here? I'd hate to see your reactions to the semi-final. bauer078 said: Can I be the first to point out the massive loophole in this arc? If Kise can perfectly copy any move he sees instantly (with the exception of the GOM), then why didn't he just copy Haizaki? When Haizaki 'stole' his moves Kise could've just copied the Haizaki version of the move and he would've been able to play fine. Honestly, it would be great if someone could explain this to me but it just looks like this giant loophole that's being overlooked Exactly. Haizaki's "ability" should be nullified if it's used against someone with similar "abilities". |
 |
| I'm disappointed because I thought Kise will go in the zone. But copying the moves of generation of the miracles is just awesome. Haizaki isn't close enough to them. Seems like the next game will be more intense and breathtaking. Finally, we'll see Akashi play. |
| o yea Aomine lol |

| Kise doing the "Perfect Copy" is so awesome. Next episode will be much more interesting, we will finally see Akashi play. |

Honestly, it would be great if someone could explain this to me but it just looks like this giant loophole that's being overlooked Kise probably could do that, but what's the point? He can use PC only 5 minutes so it's more effective to use Generation of Miracles moves before time runs out. |
| AOMINE SUCHA BEST BOY |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| Cool it ended so fast, I thought it's going to last for a few more episodes, and that probably would kill me. Kinda dull episode, not that I expected much. Can't wait to FINALLY see Akashi in action! |

| This is a stereotype comment, but : I can't wait to see Akashi! CAN. NOT. |

| Awesome episode. Kuroko's voice gave him super strength! However I am a bit worried now, Kise was injured and is worn out from training, surely there is no way he can be at 100% in the semi finals? But they have to win by beating him at his best. I hope they get him fixed up in some magical way before the game.. |

But technically, Haizaki was part of the original GoM, i.e. his ability is that of a GoMs' and would require Kise to use 'Perfect Copy' to replicate it. Either that or maybe not even Kise can figure out how to use the move once Haizaki's tweaked it to suit himself. |

| Grimmjow punched Ichigo Izaya vs Shizuo OMG <3 Seirin vs Kajo OMG <3 KISE <3 EPIC !!!!! |
| I really hope that Kise will enter the Zone! and perhaps maybe Kuroko too? |
