The improvements made to the OP were nice but the animation was kinda off this episode. Hopefully the one-on-one between Kagami and Teppei next week makes up for the slight drop in quality, I can't wait to watch Teppei play! He's a very refreshing addition to the cast and it looks like he'll be pulling Kagami out of his slump soon.

And poor Kuroko, let down by Aomine first and now by Kagami. :( Tetsu no. 2 was so adorable this episode though... I really hope a second season is announced at the end of the series.

This. Poor Kuroko.

What's up with all the manga Teppei fangirls here?

Anyway, I think it's OK that they lost. As much as everyone loves the underdogs, you can't just start and be the champion. It was getting annoying already how they got "more amazing" with every game.

The part when aomine defending Kuroko was damn cool. I kinda like him after that part.
Kagami and kuroko in a deprssesed state is hard to see. Hope teppei would somehow lift up their problems and bring them together. XD

Best episode so far, I was surprised when Aomine defended Kuroko.
They're aiming for the winter cup now, but there's now way that'll fit in the remaining 7 episodes so I guess we'll get a second season.
And the best thing was a new character, he seems to be a happy guy who's... stupid.

This Teppei guy is hilarious xD.His jokes are so...not funny but funny lmao.Too bad he showed up 6-7 episodes before anime ends.
Kagami should finally understand that he cant do anything by himself, and i hope Teppei will prove he is wrong in next episode.

5/5 though quality of 2 last episodes is really bad.

Mm, OK episode. Teppei is certainly interesting ... not what I expected at all o_O I totally agree, he's weird XD
They lose and then lose their other games too. Kagami and Kuroko aren't up to par. Got excited about seeing more Kise ... but ... well, it didn't amount to anything after all D:
Teppei talks to Kuroko about not limiting himself ... think it's good he wants to practice his shooting though. It's always more of a threat if the "passer" is equally dangerous at scoring (of course, I only know this with my hockey knowledge lol).
Another thing ... I always thought the quarters were 10 minutes because they were in high school but apparently they are 10 minutes internationally. Guess my NBA knowledge isn't always right after all :P
Teppei vs. Kagami one on one should be interesting to watch next episode :O

My eyes hurt sometimes looking at the shift in charas eyes. More noticeable with Seiren's coach pair of eyes. Some angles seem distorted. This is like in Area no Kishi. It seems another illustrator(s) this time. This reminds me of Hanasakeru Seishounen with the shift in illustration. Hey, bring back the former illustrators.

That part when Aomine was angry with his teammate not surprised me at all, but Momoi remained silent and don't said nothing when that guy started to say a lot of shit about Kuroko really pissed me off, I mean wtf, she likes Kuroko and she just stayed there without saying anything, cowardly bitch! -.-'

I like her.

People were saying they didn't expect Teppei to sound like that, but for me that was actually what I was expecting him to sound like.
Since he acts kind of stupid sometimes, which he's not.
If that makes sense.

Maybe Momoi isn't very good at interacting with people (unless her close friends). In the flashback, before Kuroko shows up and gave her a winner stick, she's looking at a group of students while thinking that it must be nice to hang out with friends eating Popsicle together. Looks like she didn't have that many friends to hang out with, and isn't good at socializing although she's popular.

Or maybe she was thinking about Kuroko at that time. Either way, I think Momoi's not the type to interrupt people. It doesn't sync well with her calm, intelligent, well-mannered character.

By now I've also noticed some frames that's drawn by the same artist.
Kuroko's pose and face while blocking Sakurai in episode 16 (14:54) looks exactly like Mitobe when he's blocking opponents in earlier episodes. Most common mistake: the mouth looks like a sharp :(, nearer to the chin.
There's one artist who draws thicker eye-line than the others. He/she's the one who draws Momoi (example 4:04), Riko (example 19:04), and Kise in this episode, also Kise in 6:44 of episode 3. Most common mistake: the top eyelashes are way too thick.
The best artist uses a lot of line-shadowing, he's in charge of 'good scenes' like Kagami in episode 1, Aomine in episode 17 and some of Kiyoshi's faces in episode 19 (mainly the close-up ones). Basically there's two main artists in charge of Kiyoshi, the easiest way to distinguish them is to notice Kiyoshi's hair. The better one made it longer while the other made it shorter and parting it to 5:5.
The artist in charge of Kasamatsu at 7:06 failed to distinguish between Hyuuga's face features with Kasamatsu's. He's probably in charge of Hyuuga at episode 18. Most common mistake: pupils are too small while eye are too wide.
etc etc etc. The list goes on but it's probably pointless :D. It's just to point out some faces that will most likely to "appear" again in the next episodes.

people, stop worrying. do you know that the first volume of the anime has already sold nearly 20k?
and do you know that the manga sales DOUBLED after the anime? And the character songs did well? And that the novels are selling well?

We'll be getting a second season for sure.

I think Touou arc will be better off as an anime movie though, it's so damn long it could eat up half a season.

This ep was great! Aomine getting angry fir Kuroko shows that he respects and cares for him. I was upset with how he talked to Kuroko the other ep but it probably was because he cared.
I haven't read the manga and I can see now why people made so much fuss about Teppei. I was excited to get to know his character and still am but obviously he's something! And so funny!

LOL playing with indoor shoes
then that practice game with the first years, their opponents were funny ^^
also didn't expect the first years would win

Hyuga and Kuroko moment was LOL suddenly Kuroko appears, Hyuga: WAAH! brilliant moment

Kuroko and Kagami moment: it sounded like a confession to me >.<
well I hope Kuroko's new style will come soon, can't wait to see it

It's frustrating to watch Kagami acting like that, he's just becoming like Aomine although he can't stand that guy. I'm feeling sorry for Kuroko too... I hope Kagami gets back to his normal self soon so the team can be a real team again, with Teppei! I'm excited about Teppei, I want to see what he can do and how he'll be good for the team.
