Just read the manga, this is the second best Basketball Manga after Slam Dunk in my opinion (without superpower of course), the story starts by the Main Character Sora Kurumatani who went to highschool with no official basketball club. He gathered all the member by himself (some of them are gangster, who can't play & just start to learn, but some others are ex player which is experienced, reliable & cool )
Fyi: The main character height is only 149cm, (Sora The Wingless Duck) . but still play basketball and became heart & soul of the team.
The character is what shine here.
The Story is about how

Ahiru no Sora might come off to some as a similar series to the likes of Haikyuu, with a very short player competing in a tall man’s sport, but that’s about where the comparisons end. Ahiru no Sora is definitely a different kind of story to Haikyuu, and I think you’ll be disappointed if you jump into this expecting them to to scratch the same itch.
------- The thing that draws me in most about this story is its approach to passion and commitment. It’s the rare case of a manga acknowledging that not everyone can have that extreme passion that drives characters like our main protagonist ...

I read it more than 30 times, purchased 40 volumes, and the whole online edition. From the perspective of a fan who has read thousands of Japanese mangas, Hinata Takeshi is one of the best Japanese manga artists, and AHIRU NO SORA is undoubtedly the best basketball manga after SLAM DUNK.
I don't know how AHIRU NO SORA performed in other languages, but the Chinese version gave me a very good reading experience. The content of the 35-38 volume single-line book is comparable to the most exciting part of SLAM DUNK. I love all the characters in AHIRU NO SORA. Takeshi Sensei's description of emotions is ...

I'm French.
In life, sometimes that is a disadvantage. In the case of Ahiru No Sora, which isn't fully translated in english but is in French, it's a blessing. I think a quote from the manga that summarize and explain its thematics the most is made by the author himself and Toby :"The future doesn't exist". This applies both to the perception of the world, the story and the characters. Many times, the manga will do Flash-forwards, showing us the futur of these characters after the end of the manga's story. This shows us that, clearly, the result isn't the important part of the manga. It's the ...

This review section is infested with 9s and 10s making you actually want to pick this up. I recommend not doing that because this is more than just a little dreadful.
Story: (3/10) The story gets good from time to time. Especially when our main character has some growth. But that isn't nearly enough to make up for the bs it pulls. This manga like many others wants to focus on 'realism' rather than entertainment. You can see how I put realism in quotations there. It's because the only time the author decides to pursue realism is when he should be hyping stuff up. Every interaction at the ... |
