IT WAS EPIC, especially the end.

Nice seeing the Generations of Miracles, well kinda. Looks like Kenichi Suzumura is the voice of Murasakibara, sounds very much like Sougo from Gintama haha. A team that isn't apart of the Generation of Miracles is looking very promising.

Kagami > Buzzcut Guy

5/5

I was really looking forward to their battle against Midorima's school.
Heh, so they have applied old martial arts for defending?
The pace this time was slowed down.

But, I cannot wait for Seirin to destroy that team!
Go, Kagami!!

Buzzcut guy is really annoying so that dunk at the end was awesome; but seriously thinking about it if a guy smiled like that while playing i might just throw the basketball in his face O_O

Another great episode! I love the pacing in this series so far! The fact that Seiho is a team that doesn't have one of the Generation of Miracles and is still one of the top teams in the nation is awesome. Like they say "defense wins championships".

and lol @ Kagami's "hoo-wah" and the poor coach. Nobody wants a kiss from her haha. Can't wait for next week's episode!

Great episode, as always! I really liked how well-paced the anime is and the animation's back to looking crisp~ We didn't see the rest of the Generation of Miracles, but at least we heard their voices, woot! The seiyuus are a decent match with the characters.

Lol'ed at poor Riko, no one took her seriously. LOVED the ending picture! ♥

I like the fact there are special players outside of the generation of miracles. Im expecting the other team to adjust but of course Seirin is gonna win.

Lmao at Riko offering a kiss as a reward.

Kind of a slow episode. Or I guess with so much intense action in the past, I guess they needed to slow things down a bit to let us recover from the onslaught of it all. Next episode may be fun, go Seirin!

Im glad Kise continues to stick around.

Lmao at Kise hearing the horoscopes for Midorima and Kuroko. I'm happy he's still around!
Also poor Riko, I wouldn't take her seriously either...

I hope the next episode isn't as slow as this one :c, it was really good though.

"You idiots! Pretend to be happy if you have to!"

Coach killers, super effective. Good to see a shutdown opponent in Tsugawa instead of some beast scorer, Kagami looks like he has a plan though. Hopefully this game gets a bit more time than the Papa qualifying game, Seiho is one of the three kings after all. So pumped for the next episode.

Freaking loved how Riko did that 'I'll give you a kiss if you win the next game' and no-one was interested LOL. Then she did that creepy laugh and started shouting and the epic music came up, SO GOD DAMN PUMPED!

I loved how they showed the past a bit. Generation of Miracles members in the same team and looked like Kise didn't change that much. xD

When the Seiho members appeared, things were so intense. That scene where Kuroko was telling Kagami how he hated basketball with the eerie music was so good. Seiho were already beating the crap outta Seirin with their old martial arts. I lmao'd when Kagami did his impersonation of a 'old martial arts technique' and Riko raged. xD

Tsugawa seems like an awesome character, his defense is so damn good. Kuroko couldn't do any of his awesome passes. Hoping to see them next episode, and I'm sure it's going to be so awesome. Damn, the music sure fit well. >=D

Also, I freaking loved the last scene with Kagami going full out and slam dunking with that intense up-beat tune. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

OMG..Aomine, Murasakibara and Akashi!!!

Even though their faces haven't shown hearing their voice made my day!

Aomine's voice so sexy.
Murasakibara's voice so cute.
Akashi voice so bossy but perfect!. LOL

Awesome episode even it's very slow.

Damn, the GoM has great seiyuus voicing them. Suwabe Junichi, Suzumura Kenichi and Kamiya Hiroshi. Sad that it may only be Aomine we'll see this season.
And this namba thing reminded of that basketball manga by Seo Kouji, Cross Over, who did this as well. Too bad that was cancelled.
Well, let's see how they defeat this team.

Oh man, that end card.

he is..during the flashback when Kise got scolded by the other GoM members he was the first one to speak.

The one who says "Your holding the ball for so long, idiot"

That was his line. (^_^)

I don't think he meant pain as in being a sadist. Probably just a figure of speech of him about play harder defense.

Now I understand how those schools reached the top, and its teams are called "The three kings." Kise getting block is not for anyone! Perhaps even Midorima have problems with that defense! See the face "sad?" Kurko and thoughtful about something he loves to hate was so cute! XD

I'm happy to see them introducing other challenges than Generation of Miracles. The next episode should be great, with Kagami breaching their defense. Aida was also as great as ever. I was also thrilled by hearing Akashi voiced by Kamiya Hiroshi.
And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be...

Ah, I want to see more middle school Kuroko and GOM team playing lol :S Kise's so cute ♥ So glad we get to see him again :D
Er ... martial arts to move? O_O Nanba walking?! LOL wtf ... how do they come up with these crazy things XD I like Seiho's defensive thinking though, it's a nice change from all the offense everywhere. It's even got Kuroko off his game because he can't pass. Well, I'm sure they'll somehow win just by will alone (certainly, that's what Kagami does), seeing as they have to face Shuutoku/M guy (I always forget his name! X_X). He's even got good luck and Kuroko's got bad luck, so it'll really be something to watch them win. Although TBH I would prefer to see them losing too. Only winning is no fun and is one of my biggest pet peeves in shonen series
DAT END CARD WAS REALLY CUTE LOL XD
EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention that they've (finally?) seem to be having fouls (even though there could have been others before this lol). I wonder if they'll have to bench Kagami to prevent him from fouling out? Hrm ... (they didn't show the free throws either. Odd)

"You're staring down the wrong guy" - That was awesome and funny lol.

Baldy needs to get slapped. This defensive team is getting on all our nerves.

Oh yeah, Aida was cute in that scene ^^.

I'm really glad Kise is around too, he creates a better atmosphere. I hope he gets steady screen-time like this until the very end.

This is just the beginning, let's go Kagami. For yourself, for your Senpai, for Kuroko, for Aida and for basketball.
