Honestly, out of all things to complain about you complain that the coach is a girl. Wtf? Don't give me that crap basketball is all about build and size. You must never played the sport because it takes talent and skill too. Thats like saying Yao Ming the greatest center because he was the tallest. LOL How can you call me sexist when my avatar and signature are females. LOL. The coach isnt even usefull. She just does numbers and thats it. You do know most coaches have some type of experience in the sport even if they didnt play. I said i wouldnt have mind if she was a woman. You just wont admit Japan got a highschool girl fetish. LOL I dont get what ecchi has to do with the show. Most sports anime have zero ecchi so im use to that. Either way the show is ok so far. |

THAT'S WHY it's in so many anime. Studios make anime that the audience wants. Highschool girls just happens to be one of those things. Like I said, coaches aren't that important compared to having the right players which is why it doesn't matter whether the coach is a girl or boy. Besides, I like having the coach as a girl. Not only does it change things from the norm, but it also adds a bit of irony and goes great with the theme of the anime; a team working hard to beat and become the best. Just look at Kuroneko. He's like the coach; someone you wouldn't expect being part of the team. It's one of those things you add in a plot to spice things up and create more possibilities. Aside from that, would you rather watch the players play basketball, or the coach drawing up players every 2 minutes? Last I checked, there was only one time out in the game which was the only time the coach could draw up any plays/strats which she did. Really.. this was the first real game in the anime so far. There's plenty of time to build not only the players, but also the coach. No reason to jump the gun when we're only on the third freaking ep. |

Again they didn't cover as much ground as I thought they would with this episode. They've got to step up the pace a little bit if they want to cover even half of the manga's content in 26 episodes. This is just the tip of the iceberg however. People complaining about the coach (Riko) being a girl etc don't know much about her or her past year probably. Did they forget she was the assistant to a professional sports coach who has dealt with lots of athletes in his time? She may have just taken up coaching basketball relatively recently but she'd of course have looked up the different strategies employed by basket ball teams. Next week's episode will also be awesome. 5/5 for this episode. |

Another awesome episode. Man, Kuroko no Basket keeps getting better and better. I sure hope it goes beyond the 24+ episode mark. Loving Sundays even more >=D. Kagami breaking the hoop was absolutely HILARIOUS lmao. That's just insane. xD Seirin were kicking ass at the start with Kuroko's awesome misdirections but he's got a weakness; the more he uses it, the more the opponents get used to it. Kise sure is an interesting character. He's basically Kagami x 2. Freaking loved that last scene where Kagami stated that Kise has a weakness being Kuroko and grabbing Kuroko by his hair LOL. Absolutely epic. 5/5. I seriously can't wait for the next episodes, shows how good this Anime is. :D |

Pretty stunning episode with the basketball action. Character interactions are pretty cool. Kise is great with Kagami making things hilarious with how he reacts to Kagami, Kuroko is funny with Kise since they treat each other so differently or rather like equals not to mention Kise is just funny on his own with his personality, and all three are just on a completely different level with everyone else even in understanding. Its hard to pick a favorite. That was litrally the most intense five minutes of basketball Ive ever seen, so fast paced. Dont understand why they had to waste part of the animation on just showing a hoop being lowered for setup. The music is also pretty interesting, oddly fits well. I really hope Kuroko doesnt lose his edge in just one game, or else then he would definitely have to be the weakest of the Generation of Miracles or whatever. <img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx1a8gz3tu1qbxqfpo1_500.png" /> |

Now a broken hoop is what you deserve after underestimating Seirin! Kagami is too awesome! So the invisible plays of Kuroko has a weakness... and it is opponents gets used to it. Since this is just a practice game... they might lose, and get revenge when the battles start. This is getting even better! Can't wait for more! |

bonifide said: How can you call me sexist when my avatar and signature are females. LOL. Huh? I fail to see a relationship between one being sexist and one having a female avatar? One does not exclude the other lol. Also most sexists don't actually realize it themselves. I am not referring to you by the way. I don't think people complaining about the coach means that they are sexist. bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |

Saying the players matter and the coach doesn't is the same as saying the army matters and the strategist/general isn't needed. You need leadership to play better, if a team has decent players but a great coach, the coach will influence the players to excel. The coach matters just as much as the players do and to ignore that and just jump the boat and call the guy sexist for saying she is a bad coach is just ignorant. So far she hasn't done anything to prove how good she is, therefore she sucks. If she gets better later then alright but so far she hasn't shown much promise. |
