Both are sports themed titles, with one being basketball and the other volleyball. In reading HKyuu I can see some of Kuroko in the main characters. In Kuroko, you have the Kuroko/Kagami pair who act as best friends slash rivals on and off the court. Kuroko helps Tetsuya and vice versa. In HKyuu, there's the Hinata/Kageyama pair who fit the exact same role on the team; Kageyama being Kuroko and Hinata being Tetsuya. 

Sports manga released on Weekly Shounen Jump. There are a pair of players in both, one with a extremely high level technique for passes and another one with pure raw power.  

Kuroko no Basket and Haikyuu!! are sports theme manga that involves competition, sportsmanship, and teams striving to become the best. The main characters from both series have friendship and rivalries with similar relationships. There's also many humorous moments during various game competitions. In some ways, the main characters also has similar personalities as they form a team based on teamwork and respect.  

Very strong similarities with these 2 manga. 1. It is a sport manga. Also, the schools which the manga's are based on were teams that were strong but not exceptionally overpowering the previous year but receive talented first years that have the potential to take their teams to the top. 2. The main and supporting characters are fairly similar. The 2 main characters in each of the manga's bring out the best in each other. Generally, one of the main characters uses their talent to support the other main character. The supporting characters are similar in a sense that they each have strong recognizable unique personalities. They also both have a female mascot. (Although one is a manager and one is a coach) 3. Rivalry. Both manga's seem to bring out a rivalry from former team mates from the main characters middle schools. The team mates ended up going to different high schools and end up competing against each other. Overall. The set up is pretty similar. Of course, one major differential is the sport. (Volleyball, Basketball)  read more 

Both are sports manga with the two main characters having the strongest combination. Hinata from haikyuu!! is just like kagami from kuroko, with his amazing jumping ability. Kageyama can be likened to kuroku with his perfect skill at passing and maximizing their partners' talents. Both mangas are amazing. 

The main characters have similarities, especially in their relationship to each other and others. Also, the art is really great and the mangakas catch the passion for matches in a similar way. They're both aiming for the top. 

Both about sports, passion, deep friendship, guts and drive to achieve anything. 

Kuroko no Basket and Haikyuu are the two most prominent sports related manga series of their respective sport, with the theme of the first one being basketball, and the second one being volleyball, there is also Blue Lock as the third one which is the most prominent football related series, they have overall all of the basic shonen tropes while enchancing and modifying them in order to match the athletic genre they take place in, such a unified storyline that spreads throughout the series, character development of the protagonists as well as the side characters, as well as good action, with some scenes in particular being very intense. They are overall the best storylines to experience as far as this genre goes, and they are aimed both for athletic audiences interested in the particular sports but also for the more general audience as popular shonen series. read more 

Both are sport themed manga set in highschool. But while Haikyuu is more realistic, Kuroko no Basket has a supernatural aspect to it. 

Weekly Shounen Jump sports manga with a cocky mc and overpowered high schoolers that could defeat an all times all-stars team. But the thing they look alike the most is in the comic moments. 

It is a sports manga. Kuroko no Basket is a basketball manga. Tennis no Ouji-sama is a tennis manga. In both of them, students perform feats that would be impossible in real life The students can easily pull off tricks that would be impossible in real life. Although there are more than 20 volumes, both are fast-paced, fun-to-read sports manga. 

Both are sport manga which special abilities (skill) are ridiculously absurd, almost Pokemon/Ultraman-like. 

Both are about basketball and worth reading manga if you like competitions and stuff. Also in both manga there are good passers who look alike. 

- Bot Player Want a love Basketball ... do anything for them to let other people how amazing basketball game was ..  

They both share the same core: school basketball. One of them relies more on wild stuffs and have some interesting characters. The other one, though, focus more on some guys fighting against some wild stuffs and encourage reader to love basketball. If you have read one of them, you should read the other since they are somewhat similar. 

Both "Kuroko no Basket" and "Slam Dunk" have the same theme of basketball. However "Slam Dunk" is a more realistic on the genre over the "super powers" that the "Kuroko no Basuke" characters get. They're both fantastic series to read and classics in the genre. 

They both share the same core: school basketball. One of them relies more on wild stuffs and have some interesting characters. One of them relies more on the intensity that Baseketball games can give. If you liked Slam Dunk, Kuroko is an interesting read as it is on school basketball too. If you liked Kuroko, Slam Dunk is a must read. 

If you liked Eyeshield 21, you will definitely appreciate the humor in Kuroko no Basuke. Both feature light-hearted yet competitive atmospheres, and Kuroko no Basuke puts an interesting twist in the over-used (yet still so dear to my heart) weak-character-discovers-a-sport-and-becomes-a-star theme. Instead of featuring a weak character who is struggling to find where he belongs, Kuroko no Basuke has a character who seems weak, but is actually very grounded and secure in his abilities and his future. In any case, his "weak" stature is actually his secret weapon in basketball. Kuroko's blank stares and invisible presence are also to die for. The chapters in both of these mangas fly by, so be sure not to let the length of either one put you off. You just can't miss either of them. read more 

Both have same styles of humour and "shonen sports moves" - questionable moves and techniques that attract shonen fans but are mostly likely impossible to do in real life. Both of them have a relatively similar storyline as well with the protagonist's team aiming for the top by defeating several incredibly strong opponents. 

Chronicling the journey of a rookie, Kuroko no Basket and Baby Steps leaps forward with a character who begins to embrace a sport. Both series depict their experiences as they take on powerful rivals. Although the category of the sport is dramatically different, tennis and basketball both revolves fundamental strategies. The main character utilizes these strategies for creative plays to tell a story. Recommended for sports fans who likes excitement and gameplay at a steady pace. 

Despite both being about sports both of these series are can be considered different. But there are also similarities. Both of the main characters (Kuroko and Maruo) aren't considered that strong in the sport that they play, and both work really hard in order to improve themselves. Each of them is also supported by many people so that they can reach their goals. They also have rivals that they want to defeat, and they make great strides in order to do so. Also, both MCs can be considered intelligent and use analysis and quick thinking in order to compete with their rivals. 

Another story about basketball where the main character joins an average team and keeps getting better. This is VERY similar to Crossover, so if you enjoyed that, this is a must read. 

Both these series are fresh manga's out of Weekly Shounen Jump, both are promising and deal with exactly the same things, 'cept the sport is different. Here it's basketball, and there it's soccer. It's all about a new kid on the team (for starters) and it develops towards some matches and (probably) some tournaments later on.
