So far, to me this is one of the biggest flaws of the series. I kind of wish the author had a different approach with his shooting. His 100% Accuracy was okay and that high arc is cool, reminds me of Dirk Nowitzki in a way. But that full-court bullshit is just a huge mistake. Not to mention the way he shoots the ball is just physically impossible.

The realism pales in comparison to Slam Dunk.

I thought it was uber legit how he could do that...

It wouldn't be 100% accuracy without it.

I would accept 100% from the 3PT line, but anything beyond that is just stupid. You do know the best NBA shooters just shoot over 50% from the three point line. You can imagine the lack of Basketball knowledge the creator had when coming up with Midorima's skills.

Alright, I'll elaborate on it then. The way Midorima shoots the ball from full-court is just ridiculous, he is in perfect arch form like he is standing 10 feet away from the basket, he looks like he is not putting any strength in it at all. It's like the ball just leaves his hands and finds it's way to the basket. Search some full-court shots and then tell me if Midorima is legit.

1. This isn't Slam Dunk.
2. The shit Aomine pulls off is about 30 times more unrealistic than anything Midorima has ever done.
3. It's not real life. Almost nothing in sports shounen is realistic. Hell, just Kagami's jumps are horribly unrealistic, especially at his age - let alone his fucking professional NFL Lineman strength when he's a basketball playing Japanese teen. Kuroko being 'invisible' to the eye at times is also bullshit, let alone his fucking hilarious ball passing involving PUNCHING the damn thing and it going perfectly where he wants it to. It's all DBZ tier bullshit they pull off.

I'm not sure why you're picking out Midorima when he is far from the most unrealistic, nor the only unrealistic one. All he can do is shoot well; which compared to someone who can copy every move of yours and even make his body somehow work on a level it's not capable of, someone who can pretty much break the laws of physics, someone who can jump 30 fucking feet, someone who can READ PEOPLES STATS IN RICEBALLS, SCREAMING FROGS, AND UMBRELLAS, and so on - is not that bad.

Um, Kagami's jumps are common. I wouldn't say for the average Japanese male. But having crazy hops at 16 isn't anything impossible. Aomine's streetball does push it at times, but Midorima bothers me the most. Kuroko being invisible is just something you're going have to accept if you plan on watching or reading the show. At least he isn't shooting 90 footers like a walk in the park.

The whole series is a mess when it comes to realism, I'm just solely picking on Midorima right now.

The video looked fake? I don't see any wires coming out of the top of the ball, dragging it into the hoop. Lebron legitimately did a full-court shot and it was a 90 footer, accept it ignoramus. Also, there are other full-court shots online, DURING games. About what you said about Kuroko's invisibility, you're being a total hypocrite by saying you're accepting that unrealistic idea yet you don't support Midorima's. Also, when Midorima DID perform the full court, it was slowed down to make it seem like it was effortless. It's an anime, not an actual basketball game. If you're looking for realism, go back to watching NBA.

It's an anime about Basketball, so I expect it to stick to the fundamentals. I'm more lenient on Kuroko's abilities because I feel that it isn't the most unrealistic compared to the other fucking Power Rangers. If the writer doesn't know how to make an interesting basketball show other than adding on impossible abilities, then he clearly should've studied Basketball a little bit more than rely on his appalling B-Ball IQ.

No I said it was over exaggerated. Not impossible. The deal with that is it is possible to do "misdirection" but in basket ball when people are actually looking for you on defense your not going to literally not register in their view points.

And it's basically like you said. It's a anime not real so unrealistic things are to be expected.

A thread about a basketball anime/manga anywhere would not be the right place to discuss 'real' basketball. This is a show and manga based heavily on shounen principles, not realism. You were saying the author doesn't know how to make an interesting basketball story "without" those things - but so what? Kuroko no Basuke has one of the LARGEST fan bases in modern anime history;

They took over the entirety of Pixiv in a few weeks - having the top amount of art uploaded EVER compared to anything else.

They took over Comiket having over twice as many booths as any other series and many of the others even COMBINED.

And that's because NOBODY WATCHES IT EXPECTING FUCKING REALISM. This is very good ENTERTAINMENT, which is all anime and manga are supposed to be. This isn't a study of basketball and the physics and skill behind it. Hell, the majority of fans don't even like basketball - I'm one of those. The real sport is fucking terribly boring.

You mentioned in the post I just quoted this is not the place to discuss "real" basketball - why the hell would a very obviously not-based-in-reality shounen manga about a sport be the place to discuss the REAL sport? Go to the NBA thread if you want that. The characters literally fucking glow and disappear, warp across the court, slow down time, float in the air for 30 fucking seconds at a time, change the TRAJECTORY OF THEIR BODY MID-JUMP WHICH IS FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE FOR ANY HUMAN BEING, no shit this isn't the place to talk about real basketball.

You people know jack shit about basketball. No one and I mean no one does a full court shot with the same form that you would use from the three point line. It is impossible to generate enough power and to hit 100% from there is not possible. Full court shots are hit like this

And they hardly ever go in hence the reaction of the crowd and commentators.

I understand where Lethargy is coming from but we just have to accept that this is a manga and it will occasionally break the laws of physics.

Okay this is a fictional basket ball story. IF I wanted to watch real basketball I'd watch the NBA.
Midorima LIMITS himself because he choses to only take three's therefore to compensate for that, the author makes him able to shoot from anywhere. BUT, there's a drawback. It's limited, drains stamina and takes longer the further he is. He's not even hard to stop. You wanna talk about bullshit abilitys'? Perfect Copy and the Kagami Tier Zone come to mind.
Just relax and enjoy the story peoples.

All he can do is shoot well; which compared to someone who can copy every move of yours and even make his body somehow work on a level it's not capable of, someone who can pretty much break the laws of physics, someone who can jump 30 fucking feet, someone who can READ PEOPLES STATS IN RICEBALLS, SCREAMING FROGS, AND UMBRELLAS - is not that bad.


Um, Kagami's jumps are common. I wouldn't say for the average Japanese male. But having crazy hops at 16 isn't anything impossible. Aomine's streetball does push it at times, but Midorima bothers me the most. Kuroko being invisible is just something you're going have to accept if you plan on watching or reading the show. At least he isn't shooting 90 footers like a walk in the park.

The whole series is a mess when it comes to realism, I'm just solely picking on Midorima right now.

Kagami's jumps are common? Dunking from free throw line with ease, my gosh and..

It seems that this forum is clearly not the place to discuss real basketball lol.

LOL, MidnightPride why did you change your name man? Your replies weren't that idiotic.

Whut? U MAD?

Kagami's head could freakin reach the hoop, and that's what you called common? Kise pretty much did everything other people could do, in an unbelievable way, well that's not all that unrealistic by what you said, was it? Aomine pretty much pulled out stunts that aren't possible even for street basketball players at NBA level. Well Murasakibara is pretty much the most realistic one, and Akashi.. well he is quite realistic to some extent, I guess? Midorima focused solely on shooting, no dribble and everything else, and he might've trained his fingers' muscle.. People who are used to scoring 3 pointers will have the "feels" of it. Let's see if you shoot 2k shots half court a day, you might be able to do a 99% half court shots after years of training o.O

2. The shit Aomine pulls off is about 30 times more unrealistic than anything Midorima has ever done.
3. It's not real life. Almost nothing in sports shounen is realistic. Hell, just Kagami's jumps are horribly unrealistic, especially at his age - let alone his fucking professional NFL Lineman strength when he's a basketball playing Japanese teen. Kuroko being 'invisible' to the eye at times is also bullshit, let alone his fucking hilarious ball passing involving PUNCHING the damn thing and it going perfectly where he wants it to. It's all DBZ tier bullshit they pull off.

Let's be real. Aomine isn't that unrealistic, not when you compare him to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vglS7j0c4To this guy, who looks more anime than Aomine ever does, save from lightning eyes.
