I'll never know how Midorima talked so much in just 2 seconds...Anime logic, I guess :D
The final part of the episode: SUGOI, Kuroko-kun. Kuroko-kus wa sugoina hito des!
Also I think the couch can be easy the best stalker ever with her eyes.

Can't wait for the next episode. I like the manga but when I watch the anime is slightly better.

Great episode, now that preview got me exited.
Love battle between the coach and the new girl that reminds me of Inori (?) from Guilty Crown.
And the dog, we'll finally get to see the dog from the op, I hope he's important...

This episode was epic, as usual. I can't wait for next week episode. Ahh ~ come faster. Come faster. ~ Although, I got the feeling that the quality this episode was pretty low. The animation felt.. awkward in some parts. Was that just me? O_ o

Wow. I was surprised at the last part, somehow I thought shutoku would win with Midorima in the last three seconds.

I haven't read the manga but totally curious who the girl is. Was shocked when she said that Kuroko was the love of her life. O___O

Can't wait what next episode will be. Pool scene anyone? :D

It was announce already even his seiyuu so it's not really a spoiler.

He will be voice by Hamada Kenji and will have a character song to be release together with Aomine's character song.

It was announce in WSJ issue #31.

Why couldn't the shot at the end be a 2 pointer? Why couldn't they play over time? or why would they lose with a 2 pointer, this made no sense


Because they were too exausted to play over time.

KUROKO ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ROCKET PAWNCH!

Aomine looks sooo great <333 he looks liek he could be the captain back in GOM days?

However now that Serin's pretty much exhausted the 1-2 point victories, why do I have a feeling their match with Aomine might end badly , hope im wrong >_<

Also Since she was in the opening that Pink moeee girl is most likely as everyone says, the GOM coach/manager :3

These reasons coupled with the fact that this series takes itself too damn seriously are why I am baffled that people think this is a good series.


Manager having a machine-like ability to judge peoples' physical stats - just like the power level in DBZ

-Kuroko being able to disappear and reappear whenever he sees fit - kind of like goku's instant transmission?

-Kagami being able to seemlessly surpass his limits (WTF is this DBZ?) - yes, this is DBZ.

what are you complaining about, DBZ is your favourite anime according to your profile, why does this one have to be more realistic just because its about basketball? you cant tell me DBZ doesnt take itself seriously

Am I the only one who really wanted Seirin to lose just this once? Just so they really have something to build up to?

I'm pretty sure it'll happen eventually. Or at least, it damn well better. My money's on Aomine being the one to topple them, giving them a hurdle to beat in S2.

It would really piss me off if they got to the end of the season without losing a single game, though.

The premise itself is based around facing off against 5 opponents of insane skill. You are missing the point completely.

The manager's ability is a dramatization. She's just extremely good at anyalyzing physical capabilities.

Kuroko does not disappear, it's just that he's extremely good at not being noticed.

On the last matter you're just flat-out incorrect. Kagami did not surpass his limits. Obviously, the point was not that he could not jump AT ALL after those two, just that he couldn't jump to the level where he'd be able to counter Midorima.

Also, this series doesn't take itself that seriously. It's obviously in it for the fun, and it's damn good at it.

Ah, intro of Aomine and that girl (I forget her name). He's not what I expected at all haha XD
Anyway, as good as this episode was it's still really unbelievable. I mean, going from tripled score to winning? A fake within a fake? All that believing? Stopping in the middle of a match for some good-old shounen explanation time? Yea. I dunno, but if they go and win the championship I am gonna be majorly disappointed. One of the things I hate most is when people just WIN without ever losing. Looks like this is shaping up to be one of those shows :S
I love the next episode's title omg lol o_O Midomira, I still love you ;3 (just not as much as Kise, sorry XD) OH AND TAKAO TOO lol :P Angst time in the rain ... oh dear *sigh*

All I have to saw is that Midorima's monologue is way longer than 3 seconds, but lets just go with what happened in the series. And, my current opinion of the show is that it isn''t amazing and awesome like some people think it is, but it's nice to watch. I don't think I'd ever love the show though. Anyway, nice episode. I'm excited about Aomine appearing.

The ending was AMAZING! I had my breath held and lost heart when Midorima pump faked. Kuroko to the rescue, haha.

Well, they picked the wrong time to introduce the pink haired girl, my attention was snatched in one fell swoop, lol.

I`m more interested in her than this Aomine guy. He seems like your everyday `good at everything`player.

Swimming next? New girl? Can`t wait.

The mind games were amazing here. We need more like that in this series.

I lol'd so hard at Midorima freezing time simply to explain his reason for always shooting 3 pointers. All the while Kagami could have knocked the ball out of his hands. This is such a shonen jump series. But I can't help enjoying it despite that. It is, after all, an intense and fun series. I just wish there would be more off-time in between games to build the characters.

Either Midori used Za Warudo, or Kuroko became DBZ. Those 3 seconds ended up being 3 minutes. Not just the talking, but the jumping part and faking too.

Kuroko's pass was just ridiculous lol. What's next, Kung Fu Basket.

I was a bit disappointed that Seirei won. I hoped that they'd lose at the very end. It's boring when the main guys always win.
