| YESSSSS COME ON KISE |
 |
| Finally it begins (*_*) ... |
| There’s no hope on the battlefield. It has nothing but unspeakable despair. Just a crime we call victory, paid for by the pain of the defeated. Yet humanity has never recognized this truth. And the reason for that is, in every era, a dazzling hero has blinded people with their legends and prevented them from seeing the evil of bloodshed. The true nature of humanity has not advanced a step beyond the Stone Age! |
milkdrunk said: A little disappoiting. First half was basically a recap, not much happened. Yeeaaa.... really MEH.... what's up with that second half too... the heck... overdoing it again? |
Torrible said: Yeah I just facepalmed at that lol. |
| "There's no shame in falling down... true shame is to not stand up again!" "Aah? Of course I won't miss!" "My blood tastes like Iron." "Run through the tape in life! Never give up! Run through the tape!" |
| It's nice to see bits of their past games and really were stressed about the interview XD. Damn... that Haizaki bastard is strangling Alex and beating Tatsuya... I hope someone beats him as well... I can't wait to see Kise defeat Haizaki in the game... |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! KUROKO NO BASKET IS BACK! With the NBA season going strong now and the start of the new series, the hype meter for me is off the charts!!! Let's go Kise! Haizaki 'bout to get wrecked! Love the opening yet again by GRANRODEO! I'm fangasming so hard right now. The OSTs have definitely been upgraded though. Still some season 2 feel, but it's combined with some of season 1's style! The OST right before the game tips off totally screams season 1 style-wise with some season 2 mixed in. Simply brilliant build-up song! |

Torrible said: NoongaJuice said: 6. Quite a few spoilers in the OP smh :p |
 |
| Bishie bballers are back!! |
 |
| The half of this episode was spent in recaps, but I still enjoyed it! Can't wait for the next episode!! More Kise in the next episode yay! :D |

tingy said: Torrible said: The recap is just an excuse to show some of the better animation from last season Recap is obviously to refresh people's memories and to try to hook new people in. And why shouldn't they show off their awesome animation from season two when they can? :P It's beautiful. From broadcasting perspective, it's not really that bad. Though I guess I would feel differently if I had marathoned the last season and then watched this right after. It may seem I was complaining, but I'm actually perfectly ok with the recap. Besides, it just dawned on me that the Fukuda match would be better served if it were contained in one episode instead of being split up into 2. Yes, the recap makes sense, especially considering not everyone owns copies of the show. ibearclaw said: Torrible said: |

gghelis said: He's not violent in a way that Hanamiya&co is. He doesn't punch people around on the court either. It's... ah, you'll see next week anyway. No, he punches guys and chokes girls just outside stadium and right before his game. I said it's BS when those kicking guys were doing their stuff (is that Hanamiya&co?), and I am still calling bullcrap. He would get reported, and he would get banned. Yes, Kise asked them not to do anything this time, but I seriously doubt it was his first time. I love KnB, it's on my favorites list, but they really like pulling "violent-guys-good-at-basketball" cliche. And that's my biggest problem with KnB, except for generation of miracles teams, most other opponents were complete assholes. Why? A guy can be good at sports without being complete douche... |
| It's a pity that Aomine and Murasakibara are eliminated. These two seem to be better than Midorima and Kise. We'll see Akashi, though. He's probably going to be the best. So I'd rather see someone like Aomine compete against Akashi. Rather than a lackluster Midorima. Seriously, if Midorima didn't have green hair, and the tag of 'Generation of Miracles', I'd just consider him a better than average ordinary player, like Tatsuya. I mean he lost to Kuroko and a zoneless Kagami. And then he drew with them. Can only imagine a Gom like him or maybe Kise losing like that. This was probably done for plot purposes. For taking the two weakest Goms and Akashi. Monsters like Atsushi and Aomine would presumably apply a lot more pressure on Akashi. As for the upcoming match, I think that the Bully's team will march ahead of the psychologically weakened Kise. Then Kise will become calm, show some new move and defeat him. |

| nice but too much recap. 4/5. |
| Damn, missed this series a lot and glad its back. Missed the cast. Kise being badass lol. Already really hate that Haizaki guy, please lose to Kise. Can't wait for episode 2! |
| Oh, my... I am so happy that this is airing now! I was waiting for this :) 'tho I think I should rewatch first 2 seasons to enjoy the awesomeness once again and to remember everything GRANRODEO <3 I love new OP! |
 |
NoongaJuice said: LOL I was wondering what you were talking about. Yeah, now I know what spoilers you were referring to. |
| Missed Kuroko, so I'm glad the wait was worth it. Great episode overall, can't wait to see next week's ep. |
 |
| Waiting for this season for so long... because I started watching first season when season 2 was airing and waiting for each episode of season 2 back then even felt like a long time... Good to watch kuroko and his team... I just want to know...how many episodes will be in this season of kuroko no basuke? 25 like in its previous two seasons? I couldn't find it anywhere. |
| I just love this anime... My favorite anime :) |
| Whoa... this was a very good episode! Full of flashbacks from the second season and the past of Teiko too. :) The game of Kise will be very enjoyable! |
| Maloween 2017 Main Candies   |
| Nice first episode, certainly a lot better the first episode of the previous season. 4/5 |
 |
| basically skipped the recaps. Looks like the action starts next ep, looking forward to seeing more back story of miracle generation team |
| Missed the cast. Glad to have it back. Haizaki's "You never won against me" made it already obvious that Kise will win. It could've been a little later, though. Still, Fujimaki is a specialist creating characters who are hated by everyone. |
| the episode felt slow for some reason i feel like they could of show the start of the match but i feel like that match is going to last 1 episode i read the manga and i cant wait to see it animated ;DDD |
| Kuroko's back bitches. |
| Finally! Kuroko is back! I'm really looking forward to that season. |
| Why there are so many bad guys in this basketball anime |
| Kise is back and finally getting a match <3 He still has a leg injury?! that doesn't sound good :/ Dat zone Kagami vs Aomine scene always gets me hyped but I hope that they will out do them self in this season. |

| I can't believe I'm watching Season 3!! It seems a dream!! And the animation is better than before! Both OP and END are awesome as always^^ Akashi playing violin was great to see! The recap was a little bit long but it fits well though >_< Haizaki is really a ******* Poor Tatsuya T_T Gooooo Kise!!! Long week of waiting T^T |
| Man more butt faces. Well they're everywhere in sports |
zat-bust said: That is some good animation basketball Why did they even bother showing Aomine's or Murasakibara's team in the opening, they are totally eliminated. What they showed was Kise copying Aomine and Murakakibara. Look at the opening again, you'll see Kise jumping then transiotioning to those two.[/quote] Yes but you also see the Tōō and Yōsen teams as well. W/e it is the generation of miracles, gotta show them again no matter what. |
 |
| Dude looked weird as hell with those conrows. |
 |
| Welcome back, Kurobas! This episode was mostly recaps but hey, Izuki's puns made it worth it and seeing all my favourite boys. Looks like I'll get a dose of Kise for the next few Saturdays, yay~ I'm looking forward to seeing how he improved his Copy skills. Not a huge fan of the new OP/ED yet. But baby Kuroko is worth it. Gonna watch Diamond no Ace 64 because I didn't get enough sports anime yet. |
| -_- this guy feels like filler. |
    |
| YESSHHHHHH!!!! Great first episode!!!! Had quick recaps but wern't too dragged out, and we were already introduced to our new baddy~ Omg and that ending!!!! <3 |
