Meteor Jam had everyone LEGIT SHOOK. The angle and effect were so cool. Time for Akashi to bring out the bullshit lol.

Wow, this latest episode was a total tease, but I loved every second of it. I really felt the weight of the entire series in that episode, and the opening is really cool. Only negative for me would probably be that certain line, haha.

Which line are you talking about?
 
good god almighty this match is HYPE

gimme dat meteor jam gif fam, fuck that put it in webm so you include the music for that full effect.

Crunchyroll are two weeks behind. If you want to watch thr newest episodes you need to use daisuki

Thanks! Do you know the reason they're two weeks behind? I thought simulcasts shows are always uploaded to Crunchyroll at the same time or soon after they air in Japan?

most of the time they are, they must have got an awkward deal with this season. I remember last season being up to date the day after
 
Why is he in da zone so fast, lol. I wonder if Akaashi can get in it too. I cant even imagine how incredible he could become, maybe everyone on the court would just fall to their knees.
 
Watching now, will update later.


But so far kurokos story actually has pulled everyone together and stronger. Also lol at coach sneezing on captain right when he was about to ask her out.... so funny.


Edit: damn kagami going full boar in the beginning. Going into the zone and meteor jam.

Can't wait till next week!!!
 
Is anyone else playing the new Kuroko 3DS Ties to the Future game?

I've completed everything except: 1 event missing from the adventure gallery, and still haven't unlocked the final option in the gallery itself. Otherwise have everything (all stories cleared on hard difficulty, all items obtained).

If you're playing, and you have the third event in the general category (the one right after the Kise/Aomine competition in the arcade), let me know how you got it. I have a suspicion it's related to taking Hanamiya somewhere so working on that, but who knows. Apparently there's also an "extra" event called No More Lucky Items, so any tips on that would be appreciated too.

Sorry for posting this here, fellow Kuroko fans are my only hope at this point, the JP wiki for the game is still missing the info.

Edit: gah. It required playing as either Aomine or Midorima, then getting the other one & Kagami to follow you, then going to Kagami's house twice. No other event in the game has such weird requirements.
 
Finally caught up to the latest episode. This show is fucking ridiculous. It helps I know nothing about basketball so I'm not trying to break down the games and instead just enjoying the shonen magic. A few notes:

- First things first, praises be to our lord and savior

"The only one who can beat me is me." My dude straight demolished Seirin in season one. Sent them boys home to be family men. Had them all looking like Sad Dandy. Shit even hurt my feelings. Then he shit on Kise's imposter ass. And his captain was like "Yo that wasn't even his final form." Then he destroys Kuroko's whole sense of self in the rematch like wtf. Had him sitting on the bench, wondering if it was too late to pick up baseball. And of course, him vs Kagami with them both IN DA ZONE was a highlight of the series. Praises be.

- I think of all the powers in the show, Kuroko and Kise/Haizaki's require the most suspension of disbelief from me. It's obvious why copying people is bullshit, and Kuroko's shit is just flat out magic. As evidenced by the fact he picked it up from a damn magician textbook. lol I burst into laughter when he first used Overflow and Isuki just disappeared from right in front of that dude.

- Seirin is a great cast of characters. Everyone obviously focuses on Kagami and Kuroko (cause they gawds), but Hyuga and Teppei are my dudes. Hyuga is a great captain, hype man, and them three's are clean boy. And I just love Teppei personality and Right of Postponement is pretty dope. "And I'm gonna go for a dunk....Psych!" Then you Isuki with that Byakugan, and Riko with them RPG eyes giving out full stats and shit. Hell even their bench is great.

- Fuck Murasakibara. Seriously, fuck him. Not only is he an asshole but Yosen was easily the most boring team to watch (exception: Tatsuya. He was hype). Call it plot armor if you want but I LOVED when Kuroko, fucking Kuroko, blocked his shot. Eat a dick, you tall bastard.

- Midorima has one of the more boring abilities but he's easily my favorite in the GoM next to Aomine. He's just a great guy.

- Akashi is an asshole, but those ankle breakers are fucking hilarious. lol

- The opening themes are fantastic. I think the one from the Teiko arc is the only one I wasn't really feeling. Granrodeo gave us back to back hits on this series. "Can Do" and "The Other Self" are my shit.

- Touho vs Skutoku and Touho vs Rakuzan needed to happen on screen before the series ended.


Kagami coming for souls right out the gate.

The Yosen match was a big letdown after the match against Tohou. They should have saved Aomine for later, he deserved more than being defeated in the first round. Would have preferred to have him in the final or semifinal.
 
When cat teeth pulls out the 5 finger dribble it better cause an actual earthquake in the arena.

I'm ready for this series to go full retard and not give a fuck about explaining why shit works, it should end with a chaos dunk.

Only proper way to end the Rakuzan match is if Kagami pulls this shit

The "Zone"..

Aka I ain't gotta explain shit!


And I got the Chaos Dunk reference... LMAO!
 
Then he destroys Kuroko's whole sense of self in the rematch like wtf. Had him sitting on the bench, wondering if it was too late to pick up baseball.

Aomine came close, but Akashi will succeed on that front.

But no seriously, I'm glad
that they addressed how unlikely it was for Kuroko to keep his lack of presence with all these flashy moves.
 
Damn Kagami and Kuroko got dat work from Rakuzan! Made irrelevant within one quarter! Emeperor aka "Balanced" eye too OP for them!

And to top it off Rakuzan got a SUPERIOR KURUKO on their side! I said GOD DAMN! Seiren lucky that Kagami was able to sneak in a few points in the opening and preserve da Zone for later. And by later I mean probably the last two minutes where they need some clutch plays out of the ass.
 
What a bummer episode. On top of Kuroko and Kagamis' problems, the other team also has a basketball ninja that is statistically superior in every way!


It's looking bad, man.
 
Damn, Kuroko got it bad.

Out of curiosity, I decided to take a look at the manga to see how much was covered. I don't know what happens, I just went by chapter titles.

This episode was from chapter 233-238. That's just crazy. o_o
 
Goddamn this nigga Akashi. 😂😂😂 Crushed Kagami at his best, gave a speech that crushed Kuroko's hopes and dreams, even made a upgrade of him (totally saw that coming the moment I saw that dude, but I'm sure everyone else did too).

Like Jesus I've never seen a boy go from god to you ain't even good enough to cheer that quick. We all know the guy will bounce back, I can't wait for the BS that's coming for Seirin to win this, god it'll be good.
 
Mitobe da gawd.

Akashi gunning for Kuroko really bad this episode. Seiren better hope Akashi doesn't go into the Zone, because he was able to keep up with Zone Kagami without too much trouble. Still it was pretty cool to see Kagami manage to break out of Emperor Eye, even if he messed up his Jam.

Also Kotaro is a pretty cool character when he gets serious. Will be interesting to see more of Mayuzumi's skills next week too.
 
Kagami with da posterization right off the bat

Crazy how Akashi putting up a fight against ZONE Kagami tho. Also, Kuroko nullified HARD in that match. Akashi straight up going to his face and say "All according to keikaku"

Mitobe putting work too, loved the block and the support on Kagami

Can't wait for next week
 
Can someone explain why Emperor Eye trips people?

Akashi crosses (dribbles by) the defender as soon as he sees the defender shifting the point of gravity to defend. Literally an ankle breaker.

So for example: As soon as he sees the defender stepping on the right foot and going to the right, he crosses to the left and on reaction, the defender falls.

See this GIF, and multiply by 10 because anime lol

Got damn the ether in this episode. Akashi sonned Kuroko so hard. Was like "Bruh, you're washed. You were good at one thing and you fucked that up. Tryna style and you ain't even built like that. I should know; I made you. Hell I made a better you."

I was hurting for my boy. All his moves stopped, then had to watch some new guy style on his team with his old shit. And let's not even talk about Kagami getting clowned even while IN DA ZONE. Akashi da dark gawd.

LMAO ain't that the truth...

Akashi is the best heel.


Amazing gif, too bad da zone lasted for such a short time... Akashi put the stop on that real quick!
 
Loving this show. Caught up in less than a week. But they really need to think of an alternative ending to Seirin matches. They've all ended in buzzer beaters.

You might as well change this the name of this show to BUZZER BEATERS. Except that there's already a manga by that name.
 
Just started up this show. I'm liking it a lot so far. Doesn't surprise me though, as I liked Haikyuu a whole lot too and that's from the same studio.
