| 12 points down and Kagami rage mode activated. Let's see how this'll turn out :) |
| Shutoku is just ridiculous, full court shots with the ability to block Kuroko's ability. GAHH! Still an awesome episode though. I'm just excited to see what Kagami has in store for us. |
| Yea Kagami goes to rage mode. |
 |
| Finally!The match is finally starting!!! Though, it sucks since there is a copycat of Kuroko! Heck, Midorima is just a badass. I have a feeling now that Kagami has some kind of mode which he will improve. Cannot wait to see him like that. And Kuroko beat that Takao guy already! |

| I like how they showed the Six Generation of Miracles. Calm down guys! Kagami will save the day! |
| Awesome episode!!! But Midorima, why u too OP...and that Takao really knows how to make a person frustrated. But no fear...Kagami will probably go beast mode next episode and start jumping high enough to stop the shots...but man that cliffhanger was too cruel, I can't wait a whole week for next episode T_T Oh..and lol at the captains Sengoku collection XD |
 |
| Full Court.....they should have just stuck to Half Court, making him be able to shoot that far is to OP; but that said it was still an awesome episode; Midorama's high arc shots are awesome. |
 |
| I cant help but think Takao is amazing. Midorama is the one that pisses me off with those full court shots. I want Devil mode Kagami...now that would be GDLK. |
| When Kagami went into psycho mode at the end all i could do is laugh. Cant wait for next ep |
Orientalfairy said: Hmm...the music at the end was nice... Haha, my thoughts also. Midorima's full court shoot...Takao intercepting Kuroko's passes...still a great episode! It looks like Kagami's going all-out in the next episode~ I just love all these end cards at each episode: |
 黒子のバスケ, こうすけ@ついった |
| Damn, that Midorima is monster. I smell a real struggle for Seirin here. |
 |
| Plain ridiculous. But still loved it. :D |

| Midorima is ridiculously OP with those full court shots. Lol @ the captain breaking his Sengoku collection. Kagami is about to go into beast mode in the next episode. |

| I haven't read the manga so i'm not sure who wins, but i have this feeling like Seirin is going to loose. The next episode's title "What is Victory?" seems like they're going to loose the game but feel like winners or something cheesy like that. |
| Seirin getting pawned with every move. Damn, loved that. Midorima is like a God on the court. I could watch him play all day long. And I wonder what Kagami will do next episode. Can't wait. This is one of those rare shows which has the power to be marathon-ed with. And that music at the end <3 I do hope Seirin does not win the game as it would be too 'Fairy-God-Mother-y'. Want a tie between them. |
 |
| Gosh I LOVEE all the flashbacks! >w< I know they are the enemy but, I would LOVE to see the Generation of Miracles play together one more time! >w< I HOPE SEIRIN FINDS A WEAK POINT IN THEM AND WINS!! >:OOO |
| Holy shit, Midorima's full-court shots are unstoppable. Takao's ability also stops Kurokom from doing any misdirections. With those two, even Kuroko and Kagami can't do much. 3 full court shots from Midorima, he can basically win the whole match by himself, sheesh! ClaudiusClotaire said: Kagami awakening his inner "Taiga". Omfg, that was so epic. Kagami's entering beast mode. That tune playing during that scene was so dope as well >=D This episode was so awesome. Man, I seriously cannot to see what happens next week. |
 |
 My thoughts exactly. |
 「何度も立ち向かい続けよう 大切なもの失いたくないから 信じたそのさきへと・・・」 |
| I can't help but be amazed and at the same time be frustrated with Midorima and Takao ....they are monsters especially Midorima. Kuroko! Hurry! Think of something.. and Kagami! Woah.. beast mode?!?!? But I love the Generation of Miracles flashback. And that ending song is so cool. Oh my.. i am really tempted to read the manga now...  |
| Man, it really pisses me how everyone from Seirin just freaking watches Midorima shoot without any of them actually going to try and block him or anything... |
| Too bad! Seirin is in trouble but i love this episode because it's full of action! and i hate that man that can block kuroko-kun's pass!!!!!!arghhhh!!! by the way, i can't wait for the next episode!!~~ |

When someone shoots like that do you honestly think you can do anything about it... Lol even Kagami tried to block him but failed. True. But it would look better if they put some effort in at least getting up there to block him. Ever seen a Basketball game irl? They block even if there's no chance of them stopping the shooter. But this is anime, so. xD Midorima, you crazy beast. I want more, please. Go Kagami! |
 |
| Crazy episode, that was awesome! I hate that Takao. |
ClaudiusClotaire said: The highlights of this awesome episode: Midorima's full-court shot (HOLY SHIT!!). Takao's foreshadowed ability finally shown. Kagami awakening his inner "Taiga". 5/5 Yes yes yes. Can't wait to see how this will turn out next week. Waiting for next sunday is agonizing. gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah |

When someone shoots like that do you honestly think you can do anything about it... Lol even Kagami tried to block him but failed. Yes, there's 3 things they could be doing right now. 1) Double mark Kagami with tall players and force him to move around and get tired. 2) Rush Kagami and jump/make noise to cause him to get flustered. He's the type of person that believes he wont miss and when he finally does he'll realize he's risking too much with long shots which will result in him not doing them so much. 3) Keep a tall player back by the net so when Kagami does shoot the full court shot the tall player can attempt to block as it's falling into the net or rebound it if it misses. |

mai_06 said: That full court shoot of Midorima breaks my heart. But still awesome episode. XD Kuroko-kun do something about Takao. (+_+) 10/10 He is still thinking... hehe. But I believe that Kuroko can come up with a counter attack or something to change this frustrating turn of events.. And it seems that Kagami is on it already.. :) |
| It's quite funny how the guy stopped Kuroko's backtip with moving screen, which count's as a foul. I do not know about the rules in Japan but if you denie someones movement in certain way, it's called "a screen" and moving as a "screen" will count as restraining and earns you a foul. Thats how I learned it on my basketball career and I can certainly say that the "screen" which denied kurokos movement as a defender, was a moving screen for sure. |
| Do you think this is a motherfucking game? |
| Wahh, Midorima is very ridiculous...... I want the next episode! |
 |
| Time for Kagami to hax. |
| "The stronger the Light, The bigger the Shadow" :] Kagami = Rage Mode = Kuruko Abilities will become stronger can't wait to see the next episode :D |

And suggestion 3 won't work because that would count as goal tending, therefore giving the other team the points regardless. |

That Kagami can snatch the ball away before it drops into the net. But you can do that with 2 pointers right? I think I've seen it before. So why not with 3 pointers?? |

Awesome episode. Midorima is a monster lol. However I would like to see him loose, because he's damn annoying. Looking forward to next episode. |
|
| Errr,suddenly I want Kagami to shoot fire shots. |

Seirin is half tired right now because they had a match earlier on, though that's a possibility if they try. 2. Possible but really hard as when Midorima gets into form, he never misses. Either they do the double team or simply try to block his shots once he shoots. 3. Only tall player is Kagami(he's their center). And that's goal tending and the basket will count if you do that. |

| Full court shots can't be shot like that. Good job keeping the series at least partially based in reality ugh. |
| Nice episode. I do not mind unbelievable moves or full court shots as long as they entertain me. This is shounen show in the first place. So far, the series is in good pacing. Showing how they played the game was what I really like in this show. Good animation and music hit the spot for me. The middle school flashback was a great welcome too. I look forward to Seirin's awesome moves next week on how they will counter or shut down Mirodima's 3-pt shots. |
