Synopsis:
Teikou Middle School is a school very well know for its basketball club. Yet, within that basketball club of over a hundred members, there was a certain generation that came to be known as the "Generation of Miracles" for their extraordinary skills. However, despite not having any game records and being a mere rumor, there was another player that the five players of the Generation of Miracles acknowledged and respected, known as the Phantom Sixth Man. Now, the five players of the Generation of Miracles graduate, all going into separate high schools. Seirin's basketball team was excited to learn that a former Teikou student, possibly a member of the Generation of Miracles, was joining their basketball team, but are troubled to see that this Phantom Sixth Man--Kuroko Tetsuya--is short, weak, and practically almost invisible with his incredible lack of presence. What made him so strong as to be called the "Phantom Sixth Man"?
My Review:
Well, this anime/manga was really good, I'll say. Though, if you don't like exaggerated and unrealistic sports anime/manga, then you'd better not come here. But really, it was enjoyable to read/watch this. It wasn't only focused on the sports--It also looked at how the characters felt toward it and how they overcame problems and all... Well, it's kind of hard to describe and I think many sports anime/manga do that too... Look, I'm sleepy now, but seriously, it was nice. Go ahead and try it.
Other Information:
Hmmm I said that the anime was ongoing because a season 3 is coming soon. However, the manga is finished, but you see, a sequel was announced for December this year, and so, yeah... "ongoing"... Well, it's not clear up there, but hey, that's why I created this 'Other Information" section anyway. A place to clear up any unclear stuff.
My Favorite Quotes:
"Damn it... Damn it! Why? Why am I this weak?! We have to win! I don't want... to lose anymore. I don't want... it to end like this. I don't want... to see my comrades cry anymore! If I don't do it now, when will I do it?!" (Kagami Taiga, to himself)
"Ah, I see... A team isn't just something to protect... A team also protects you. We don't support each other because we're a team... We're a team because we support each other." (Kiyoshi Teppei, to himself)
