THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.

Ooh, this was fun. Not bad for a return episode for the third season and I gotta admit, the coach was priceless during that camera shoot.

Good to see Aomine in action since he's my favorite. Hope we can get more of that from the season. Not too surprising to me that Kagami already gets into a fight lol. Oh and I think OST improved this season.

Continuing from previous season. The first half recaps 2nd season through interviewing. When red was about to make up his friendship, that delinquent-looking guy gets in the way. He was an ex-member before Kimura-san's character entered and became Miracle. He's strong... So Kumura-san's character vs. that new character next.

Wow, Kuroko Baby at ED is cute. Both OP and ED rocks.

3:13 next.

I really want to slap Haizaki right now.

Also the recap. I was expecting them to cover at least 1/2 of the Kaijo-Fukuda match.

I already can say that Kise will lose with Haizaki and Seirin will fight with Haizaki's team in next match.

Anyway... All these flashbacks reminded me how ridiculous KnB can be xD

Nice to have Morita-san in cast :D

Can't wait to see next episode!

Haizaki being a ex-member that Kise replaced as Haizaki was too violent.

Starting a fight against Alex and Tatsuya. Wow, strangling Alex and being uncontrollable. It does seem interesting to see that Kise didn't beat him before Kise replaced him. I do look forward to Kise beating his ass in basketball!

The opening, ending aren't very appealing as of now. It's a pity, that the first half was only a recap. Still very enjoyable, though. Really hyped for the next episode. Hope Kise wins.

Woo. Its back!!!

Haizaki voiced by Ichigo's VA. Looking awesome.

Although the ED sounds like an OP and it sounds more awesome than the opening... I'll probably like It after more listening to it.

I usually write something that actually has something to do with the episode, but excuse me while my inner fangirl take the keyboard:

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!!! IT'S ABOUT TIME!!

OP/ED are alright, was hoping for something a bit more hype.

Love Kagami's reaction to his mentor getting choked... "HEY!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!" and then nothing more, lol.

Wow they put a lot of effort in the animations as always. I especially liked the part where they show team Seirin's player cards.

I did not mind the recap actually. It's a nice transition to have from not watching the series for a long time *thumbs*

And I didn't expect to see baby Kuroko in the end!! HE'S SUPER ADORABLE!!! X3

The opening isn't even close as catchy as the earlier ones, it's still good though.
But then we get flashback for the first half of the ep and don't even get to see Kise in action :/

I don't mind the recap since it was a nice refresher (I'm glad they didn't give us a full recap episode). The animation was great, and the soundtrack was awesome. I already do not like Haizaki, hopefully Kise shows him who the real man is.

I have to say, I'm really disappointed that Crunchyroll is not airing Kuroko no Basket anymore! T^T It was this anime that made me buy the membership *crys*
But I'm sooo glad Kuroko no Basket is back~!! It's always nice to see an anime that will follow the manga to the end, especially sports xD Love the new opening and ending! Everyone is finally shown, especially lots of Akashi! <3
Can't wait for the match against Kise and Haizaki!

Why did they even bother showing Aomine's or Murasakibara's team in the opening, they are totally eliminated.

I doubt Kise will lose. Kaijo is playing Seirin in the opening.

What they showed was Kise copying Aomine and Murakakibara. Look at the opening again, you'll see Kise jumping then transiotioning to those two.

I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW. I was flailing for 25 minutes and more okay. I missed my babies. ;;;;;; Okay Haizaki being an ass, he's not my baby, but the way he said Ryoutaaaa~ was so waaaah! Also Kise making me think about who's my favorite again. Kuroko being mad. So cute. It was all over too fast. I can not wait for next week.

1. OP & ED aren't as uptempo as previous seasons, which I think suits an anime about an uptempo sport. Still passable though.

2. Half an episode recap is ok. Nothing to get worried about. They like leaving episodes on cliffhangers, and it was a much better transition into the new Season rather than continuing with the actual story.

For those who are going to complain about it, it had an important bit of foreshadowing, which I hope no one spoils because it is a pretty damn important thing -.-

3. The animation. Oh good Lord. I can't believe my eyes but it seems like the animation has gotten even better! Waiting every week is gonna be such a pain ;_;

4. Hyuga's "D'aho! Ikuzo!" and Izuki's puns omgosh the feels r back

5. Good adaptation of Haizaki's intro and ending on a cliffhanger as usual, which is good. Looking at the whole episode overall, I'm impressed :) and I can't wait for next Sunday (dammit lol)already!
