Kuroko's basket ball

                                               Opening for Kuroko's basket ball (dub)


Kuroko's basket ball, (made in April 7 2012) is about basket ball. It's about this boy named Kuroko Tetsuya, a boy who gets forgotten easily and Kagami Taiga, a boy who lived in America until his 2nd year of middle school. Kagami enters the Seirin basket ball club as a first year and so doe s Kuroko, even though nobody remembers him applying.Then one day Kagami and Kuroko have a one on one game but Kagami learns that Kuroko is actually terrible at shooting and dribbling, but excellent at passing. Kuroko becomes Kagami's 'shadow' and promises that he will help Kagami beat the generation of miracles and become the best in Japan.

 Kuroko Tetsuya - The phantom sixth man of 'the generation of miracles' . His abilities include: Emperor eye, the 'vanishing drive', a few passing techniques and shooting.

 Kagami Taigi - The guy who lived in America until his second year of middle school, his abilities include: Jumping, a few shooting techniques and zone.

 Aomine Daiki - One of the members of the generation of miracles. His special abilities include: Speed and agility, street basketball, animal instinct and zone.

 Midorima shintaro - also one of the members of the generation of miracles. He is obsessed with horoscopes and is always carrying a lucky item. His ability is shooting with accuracy, meaning that he can shoot from the farthest end of the court and still make the net.

 Kise Ryouta - Another member of the generation of miracles, a part time model, and has a lot of fans. He has emperor eye, zone and perfect copy. Which means he can copy any opponents movements perfectly.

 Murasakibara Atsushi. Also a member of the generation of miracles, he is tall and very stupid. But when it comes to basketball he doesn't like to lose. His abilities are incredible defence, Thor's hammer and zone.

 Akashi Seijuro - former captain of the generation of miracles, his abilities are, intelligence, perfect Rhythmed play and ankle breaking

This sports anime, like most anime is 20 minutes long. There are the basic locations, becuase the episodes are only 20 minutes. The usual places are Seirin high school, the park and the competition court. Seirin's team consists of Kuroko, who is straight foward and barley ever talks, Kagami, impatient and has a temper but is still kind, Hyuga, the captain and puts people in their place, and their coach Aida Riko, who is a girl but her father was a personal trainer and a basketball player making her excellent at strategies and looking at peoples physical abilities by just looking at them. They eenter several games with a few tricks up their sleeves, especially in the winter cup where they learn how to add on new abilities with what they have. For example Kuroko's vanishing drive and phantom shoot.





I think that this anime is based around teenagers, mostly for boys. It is full of action and comedy making it a more suitable audience towards boys, even though lots of girls watch it. It is very funny because of the facial expressions and actions they make and the little jokes spread around the anime. Even though it isn't like Attack on Titan or, Tokyo Ghoul but it still brings you to the edge of your seat, as Seirin plays competitively against other schools that are stronger than they are, as their school basket ball was only made a year before Kuroko and Kagami became students of the high school. I personally got really frustrated when a member of the opposing team wasn't playing fairly and started to shout in frustration, but I still kept watching because I found it really interesting even though the whole anime is about basketball, which I know nothing about.
