Kise and Aomine's rivalry is amusing.

Found this episode pretty chill even a part of this flashback arc. Akashi continuously demonstrates a sense of leadership imo for the group. I'm also starting to like this new OP song.

Kimura-san's character joining not too long and joined regular. Kuroko was assigned to asssist him. The captain then appointed HiroC's character as the next. Lots of fighting among members, but they are strong.

Kuroko began to look at others from faraway for his misdirection. Kuroko's friend showing up, but lost the game immediately. It seems like Suwabe-san's character began to slowly losing interest. Suwabe-san's friend noticed that.

27:08 next? So late! It seems like something's going to happen to HiroC's character next ep. that would reveal the meaning of Kuroko saying there are two HiroC's characters two eps. ago.

Ok, so I'm just gonna use this thread to ask a couple of questions that has occured my mind about some of the latest episodes.

1) Why did Kagami lose so miserably to Aomine when dueling for the shoes? Kagami matched Aomine's speed pretty well in the last game they had if I remember correctly.

2) How the hell did become so much faster than Kagami even though Kagami did match Aomine's speed which is as far as I know the fastest person Kise can copy? Was it just that Kise entered the zone when it was already fading from Kagami?

And to not go all the way to offtopic, I'm really looking forward to this episode as I'm gonna watch it soon.

Well Kagami matched Aomine's speed after Aomine spent almost a year slacking off and Kagami was sweating hells to reach new limits. The moment Aomine resumed his training he left Kagami behind again.

Murasakibara and Midorima shouting at each other at the same time but Midorima finishing later because of his speech pattern just cracked me up somehow

Seeing Kise joining in just like that!

Aomine's exploration was done great, being lonely from having no rivals. Makes me want to hear a specific song!

The call from Ogiwara was quite heartfelt.

Yeah, it'll be too much to handle...

Again, I think Teiko arc is too rushed. This thing with everybody scoring at least 20 points didn't happened in the manga (at least not at this point, and it wasn't proposed by Akashi), if I remember correctly.

Another great episode this week....The OP and ED are really good I can't stop listening to them

Seeing the dyanmic between the GoM grow is great to see but I especially liked the Kise and Aomine moments....Those two are way too funny together lol

But alas, the GoM are slowly turning into their current selves with Aomine being the first to transform....Poor guy has no one who can compete against him so naturally he'd get bored...I feel bad for Kuroko and Momoi to have to watch their best friend go through this :(

i thought ogiwara was akashi bc my theory is that he has a personality disease...i don´t read the manga....(even i put the letters of his name shigehiro ogiwara in other order...but they don´t have the same letters) so freaky XDXD

That's too bad, even though Momo told everyone her love story with Kuroko, it would have been nice to see it again. Compared to having one scene with Momo indifferent to Tetsu, then the next scene with Momo falling over heels for him. However they added the Aomine popsicle scene, that's always good.

Poor Aomine :c

I honestly can't see why Ogiwara is going to hate Kuroko later, I thought something was going to happen this week during finals, like that thing with Aomine's rival in this episode. I really wonder how this is going to wrap up.

Looks like the manly tears will be shed next week.

The Aomine story is so tragic, but I still feel like Murasakibara gets the short end of the stick. How can the tallest guy in a basketball story get so little attention? He deserved more backstory.

So much arguing in the team, but that is to be expected.
Lol at the infighting between Aomine and Kise.
Kuroko's old friend Ogiwara shows up. Too bad his team didn't make it to the next round.
GOM are just to good. Every other team just gives up.

Not quite as good as the last episode but I can't fault it as we've spent two and a half seasons getting bits of backstory here and there so the fall of Daiki's love for the game was something we all knew was coming.

Horrible to see though, he was such a bro with Kuroko last episode too.

Sad that Aomine's only competitive rival, Inoue just gave up.. That pretty much obliterated Aomine's motivation. They're unbelievable Teiko, and it's only their 2nd year in middle school, but the team feels like it's crumbling.

PV looked interesting for what happens to Akashi.

The Teiko arc continues and has been generally good. I do agree about some details being a bit rushed. Really loved how they handled Aomine's gradual change though.

Yeah, I was thinking that the 20 point proposal was earlier than it should have been, though I wasn't positive about the timing in the first place. Seemed like something would have happened during the 3rd year where more of the GoM members start getting discontent.

Next episode is going to be so amazing. Akashi's awakening.

Also, is it just me, or are they trying to wrap this arc up in just 4 episodes, and leave the rest for the finals? Because if so, that's a bad idea.

I'm sorry but this rushed flashback is just a complete bullshit. Cutting off all the great moments from manga like Momoi slowly falling in love and Kise accepting Kuroko to his "-chi" club out of "who the fuck is this dull guy" status. Cmon this show is really popular couldnt they give them yet another 10-13 episodes now when the manga is over. (They also could animate this extra game sequel as a bonus)

Ah, memories. Reminiscing is always an amazing feeling.

This arc feels a bit rushed, but I'm fine with it :)

Next ep...


Midorima vs Murasakibara was OK. Next week tho... :D

Ah, the feels are strong with this one.

Ahhhhh another great episode of the teiko arc.. amazing how it can come from extremely funny to this sad heart breaking moments.. WHY DO I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. Also I'm quite sad that this arc is going to be so small but I was kinda expecting it since we got two ovas - the one where Kise joins teiko and when Aomine and Kuroko meet and all (I think it'd be better if they put it all in the anime but)

Nice to see Midorima and Murasakibara fighting (never saw Midochin screaming so much I guess Murasakibara gets on everyone's nerves) and Aomine always punching Kise xDD

But Teiko Arc is always amazing, no matter what...... oh wait why am I crying
And I loved to see everyone "fighting" together, I mean they were all fighting and Kuroko just randomly throws up??? I understand Akashi, I would leave the room too

And now things are getting fucked up and sad and heartbreaking and I'm gonna cry even more
