Just because of new popularity Kuroko will win, but I would still say Kuroko is better.

I prefer Slam Dunk, but this isn't even Inoue's best basket ball manga to be honest.

Kuroko is good though.

I watched them both but I dropped the Kuroko at ep 12 or something cuz its super unrealistic, im a real basketball fan so I can't stand it. Kuroko is the coolest character of the both his touch pass is fun to watch.But still overall imo Slam Dunk is much better anime.

The lamest episode that I remember when the red hair guy have only 2 jumps left lmfao. Seriously you can count how many jumps you've left?

Judging by few eps and other vids, KnB feels like x-man basketball

Both are different portrayals of basketball. KuroBas takes a battle shounen approach to it where as Slam Dunk is authentic for the most part (Sakuragi's hundred body wall isn't realistic nor is his light speed dribbling exercise). I think both are great but I prefer KuroBas for its more adrenaline pumping, outlandish take to the sport. Not to mention Slam Dunk's recycled jokes can get a bit old 100 episodes later.

Slam Dunk is more realistic, but it's also slower and less intense. It feels more natural, but the average episode is less exciting. Idk what is better.
I probably regret this post by now.

Haven't watched Slam Dunk, but the manga is by the guy that did Vagabond.

So it auto-wins.

I enjoyed Kuroko (even season 2) and it was loads of fun. But in my opinion, Slam Dunk is better than Kuroko no Basket. I haven't seen the anime for Slam Dunk because I heard it didn't adapt the nationals (which is my favorite part) but the manga was amazing.

Why 'even season 2'? Is it a thing to hate on season 2 or did you not mean anything with it? Would be news to me, second season might have been even better than the first, imo.

It is a thing to hate on season 2. There's even a little bit on the previous page and a thread made on KnB 2's board.

B-But KnB second season was worse and disappointing. Changed me from a fan of the series to a non-fan.

I suppose the majority disagree with that. It can't just have that high ranking because of the sequel effect only.

I live in Japan. And I have seen first hand that fans of Kuroko no Basuke are girls.

But I love Slam Dunk because I love it's voice cast in the anime (Midorikawa Hikaru as Rukawa and Kusano Takashi as Sakuragi are PERFECT FITS!!!!) and I love it's soundtrack. To me, if you don't list Kimi Ga Suki Da To Sakebitai in a top anime song list, you are not a true anime fan.

The second season of KnB was even more ridiculous than season 1. Kirisaki Dai ichi game, Misdirection Overflow, the Zone... And sometimes, it's as if they weren't playing basketball anymore. Also, the OST wasn't as good, and the gay undertone were higher, as if they became conscious of all the fujoshis.

But I think that season 2 was more exciting than season 1.

Yeah. I'm betting at the time of the chapters, the author became more aware of his female fanbase.

There is barely any of those undertones in the first season, or at least I didn't notice them.

Absolutely slam dunk, simply can not match the magnificence of the great Hanamichi Sakuragi kuroko has its good things, but "fantastic" not sit well with sports manga, Besides That The Protagonists in Kuroko are bitches.. Still kuroko's author knows how to give geniality, suspense and good end to the matches

maybe akashi but everyone else is pretty chill

Wait, wasn't that, like, just a metaphor for Kagami finally reaching their level or smth ?

I meant those who play in Seirin.... chill?, when played against Aomine, Kagami and Kuroko came out crying when they realized the difference in skill.. against Yosen, Teppei sat to mourn alone by mere words of Murasakibara, with "captain" Hyuga esta pasando lo mismo now in the game against Rakuzan... Also, that they always win by 1 point in the last second, as it is not tedious?

dw i'm chill, but the characters are fine. i just don't think you get what the word "bitch" means

I thought being a bitch was having a rude attitude, not crying or anything LOL

Easy Slam Dunk... THe original is always better.
It's like comparing Captain Tsubasa X Inazuma Eleven ¬¬

I watched both animes, Kuroko has some great effects and a good history, but Slam Dunk is really better(i don't wanna to put a wall-text here, so it's simple as that).

I only watched that One Outs... There's the Ace of Diamonds, people claim to be good.
So i can't say exactly. But i liked very much One Outs , because of the psychological thriller, its well-made.

In conclusion i agree with you, one outs best baseball anime =)

Btw, Kagami ITZ >>> Any miracle generation guy.
The last matches, are the same "skill" being used to prove a point.

This is what made "Kuroke" no Basuket suck more and more... I believe that Kagami ITZ gonna win against Akashi.
