Nice episode again. The shouting on the rooftop is reasonable for having a focus or goal. A great motivating factor when everybody hears what they aim for. Hahaha, but not good for the school.

They repeated frames in the burger joint, huh.

Though it appears that Kuroko respects the 5, it seems he hated them. I hope it's not so deep. I understand that he said that he did not like that they were not playing as a team in his middle school's basketball. Maybe some flashback would be good how each of 5 acted in the past.

Other than concerning Kuroko's thoughts, this episode paced nicely.

Another good episode :)
The rooftop scene was good and a valid reason for motivation.

Burger Joint scene redux xD.

Kise's appearance was good, the generation of miracles is no joke, Kagami was beaten in every aspect.

Kuroko respects their talent but not their motivation to play basketball so i'm guessing the next episode will be more focus on teamwork vs talent.

It has been so long since I read the manga yet I still very clearly remember everything that happened in this episode. Amazing.
Well I'm loving this so far, no complaints here~

I also pictured Miyano Mamoru as Kise, but he still has an awesome voice :3

I hope they announce positions soon. It'll make it easier to understand how well they play.

Good episode. I'm enjoying this series.

Ahh all I want to see is cute interactions between Kuroko and the 5. I hope that he was actually close with at least one of them.

Nice ep~~~


In the manga he wasn't really particularly close with any of them, so I expect that to be the same here. And as a heads-up, if you're looking for light shonen-ai elements, there really aren't any.

This is just my speculation, but from what I read of the manga so far, he seems to have a closer bond with Kagami than he did with any of the generation of miracles.

it's an OK episode, but i still can't get over the fact that this is getting a late-night slot, it's soooooo shounen-ish!!!! All those out-of-shape japanese otaku won't like this anime!!! Why can't this shown on saturday or sunday morning, or in the evening like other sport anime??
i just hope it won't fail.... because it's quite a nice series...

Everyone is entitles to their own opinion, but weren't you expecting this? This show is so shounen-ish that it's ridiculous. But still, that is no reason to insult a younger audience just because they have a different view and opinion then yours.

This was an OK episode, nothing more. I am not really expecting much from this show, I feel that it will lose it's comedy aspect quite easily if they keep repeating the ''ghost'' part of our main protagonist.

That was a pretty good episode, although I hope something will actually happen next episode. Ghost joke isn't that funny anymore now imo.
Will watch next week.

Just watched first two episodes and I really enjoyed. That scene the coach was skipping, it was really funny. I think it'll be a good series if it goes on like this.

Wow, this episode did not disappoint!

I really wanted to hear what Kuroko was going to scream over the assembly, but I guess he pretty much told the team in his own individual way.

Introduction to Ryouta was very entertaining. The twist that he can imitate any move was a complete surprise (to me at least.) Also dem eyelashes <3

I don't know if I liked it or not. It's a bit weird in a funny way... Generation of Miracles sounds fun too. I don't know, I really enjoyed Ookiku Furikabutte, so maybe it's weird for me because Kuroko is more "One Outs" style than "Oofuri". Hm... Let's watch it and see where this is going.

Aww, I know how it is for Kuroko. I wasn't a basketball player or anything, but I know how it feels to be unnoticed. Seriously. In middle school, I was very quiet and didn't make much noise as I walked. My friends even told me they didn't know I was there. I'm not that humorous either. -w- I find certain things funny but I don't really do jokes.. not my thing.

Anyways.. the 2nd ep. Well, well, well. Rooftop scene was funny. One of the generation peeps makes an appearance, and he's also a model! WOO.

The coach is the best ^^. I really like how she does things and looks cute while doing them.

Kise Ryouta enters the scene with a great impact. He seems like a likable character.

Kagami finally gets a taste of the low end Gen-5 too. I'm glad he didn't sit on the floor and panic like a typical overwhelmed moment. Instead, he gets up smiles and accepts the challenge. He is all fired up and finally has a reason to seriously improve his game.

The 'shouting your goal' thing was pretty hilarious esp when the bald guy was rambling on and on and the coach smacked his head-so funny! And Kuroko using a megaphone haha! Epic humor!

That's the best thing about this series, it just keeps your attention throughout the whole episode. I've been feeling like every episode is only like 3 minutes long.

Haha the roof thing was hilarious XD Love how Kuroko just wrote his instead of saying it since he got interrupted :P Also lol at that guy telling his life story and the girlfriend guy XD
KISE IS REALLY HOT ♥ Just gonna get that out there now LOL ;P Ahhh he's so cool :P His personality was a bit different than what I expected though ... sorry but Kuroko already has plans ... :P Reminds me of Saki, especially with Kuroko's "shadow mode" and Kagami playing just for the love of basketball and playing stronger people XD (Lol Kuroko ... no sense of humour. You've got that right :P)
Looks like the match against Kise's team is next! :3 Looks like Kuroko doesn't just want to have a collection of individual stars (like the NBA Heat I think, with all those big names) and wants to be a "team" ... hrm :3

This reminds me a lot of Dear Boys, since Aikawa and Kuroko have a similar backstory.

I hope they drop the "Where did you come from?" thing/gag, it's boring, we got that he's "invisible". Hopefully something happens in the next episode since this episode was really slow as nothing happened.

I actually laughed at the one guy who gave the really long speech on the roof. When he started talking, I was thinking "Is he going to have some long speech?" and I quickly got my answer.
