archerzee said: MetalxSoldier said: lmao you actually expect kuroko to lose? Well he should, unless they either injure Kise, which I think will happen given the hints I've read on this thread by apparent manga readers, or if Kuroko or Kagami get some power-up. Basically they've turned this to a typical shounen series, the emperor's eye is exactly like Kakashi's sharigan from the Wave country arc in Naruto. I have read the manga, but I'm speaking hypothetically, from the viewpoint of someone who hasn't. The main difference between this Kaijou team and the one that lost to Seirin in season 1 is Kise being able to use Perfect Copy for 5 mins (and being able to jump higher). Conversely, think about how far Seirin has improved both as a team and as individuals since then. Their physical abilities have all improved. Hyuga has Barrier Jumper. Kuroko has ignite pass kai, vanishing drive, misdirection overflow, and phantom shot. They have a new Uncrowned General center Kiyoshi who contributes defensively and offensively in the post (they were weak in the post before he joined). His vice claw allows him to grab rebounds even against the titans of Yosen. His passing sense and Right of Postponement ability contribute to the speed and unpredictability of their attacks. Kagami has gone from being completely outmatched by Aomine to being able to compete evenly with him. He has since discovered the zone and the Meteor Jam is a rather unstoppable dunk. The match lasts 40 mins. Kise can dominate in those 5 mins, but what about the remaining 35? How are Kaijou going to stop the Phantom Shot in the remaining 35 mins? If Kagami goes in the zone, who can match him? Who can stop the Meteor Jam? Kise might go into the zone too, but every bit of time spent in the zone will mean less time spent in PC -- his stamina is limited after all. Why wouldn't Seirin beat Kaijou even if Kise plays every minute of the match? |
| fucking Kise even perfectly copied the ankle breaker of Akashi |
| 1. Seirin now has Kiyoshi 2. Seirin has improved all-around 3. Kise is coming off an injury from just copying Aomine and now trying to copy the moves of 3 other players that are much more skilled than him 4. Kagami has experience in the zone. No matter how much I love how 'the zone' is represented it sounds so stupid to actually call it a thing, if that makes sense. |

| Well a good match between friends I guess, without not much hatred, it's been so long since there was something like this in KnB lol. |
 |
| goodbye ovaries so much kise screentime killed me |
gghelis said: 1. Kise didn't play part of that first game 2. Kaijo didn't expect Kuroko and/or Kagami, so they weren't prepepared to counter them 3. You bet the rest of Kaijo's players did improve from back then 4. Seirin barely won that previous match by one point 5. No matter how many new moves Seirin has, because it means that Kise has them as well, except for maybe Kuroko's different misdirection stuff So... 1. Seirin scored one basket in his absence. 3. They don't seem to offer anything new since the Touou match. The guy who's good at rebounding is still only good at that. Same goes for the center and the guy who has a weird shot. |
myjackie said: Anyone mind telling me why they found the next game disappointing? I have not read the manga, but I see a few people disappointed in the last two games. You can send me a message with spoilers, I do not mind. i read the whole manga and believe me this match is gonna be awesome. maybe much more cooler trhan any other matches that you have ever watched so far. dont believe what haters say ;) |
| Hahahaha who didn't see that coming ? |
| Kise is even more OP than Akashi, but I get the feeling he'll be out of steam soon probably after the second quarter |
| I really don't like Kise, copycat bullshit and all. He's such a stooge, bro... |
| Man Akashi is super-annoying. These crazy types are always popular for some reason. Didn't expect Kuroko to hate Kise, he is his rival. That's awesome! Kise is way too OP, it makes me laugh. AND KUROKO SAID THE EXACT SAME THING AT THE END. Wow I thought the same thing as him. |
 |
| "Please wait a minute. Let him calm down." LMAO. Furihata was awesome there. "with a flash of anger, a nice cut!" LOL, Izuki is awesome too. Kagami's intense face makes his eyebrows look just as intense. Aomine is surprisingly romanticist. This match is far better than the previous one. I am enjoying it a lot. |
| |
| OUu yeaah, Kisse was so op ^-^ Even the Emperor's Eye, wow!<3 |
 |
| Finally get to see Seirin in action after so long. I figured Kise would be a beast ever since he matched Aomine in season 1, but I didn't think he'd be able to copy Akashi as well. The way he copies and combines the different GoM abilities is ridiculous, it's almost like they're having a match with a one man Teiko. |
 |
| Dat simple greeting. Also, what a great reply. It's Kaijo vs Seirin! Damn, I like Vanishing Drive's new animation. Phantom Shot also used by Kuroko already. Perfect Copy Kise already? Midorima and Aomine for offense, while Murasakibara and Akashi for defense. Kise with Emperor Eye and all other skills is freakin' OP. Glad there's a time limit. But how will Kuroko and Kagami fight against this without the Zone? |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
ibear said: No matter how much I love how 'the zone' is represented it sounds so stupid to actually call it a thing, if that makes sense. Ehh... the zone exists though. I've experienced it several times. Not necessarily for sports always though. Google it? |
| "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!" |
| I really want Kaijo to win. I guess Seirin will win by Kagami entering the zone and Kise running out of energy :/ |
| This game is starting up fast. I wonder how long Serin will take this beating =P That Vanishing Drive!  |
| Kise is just :o |
| Awesome episode. Dem feels when Takao and Midorima started to cry.. that was so SADDDD So, 2 more games to go, and Seirin vs Kise's team has started already. Kise is super op. I hope he reaches his limit soon, otherwise Seirin will have a bad time. And he is injuried right? That should start to come up soon... Oh, and this moment was epic:  By far, the best moment of the episode |
| Why does Kise continue to get praise for simply being a copy cat? I thought being a copy cat was a bad thing. |
 |
| THIS is how a basketball match should be. No one spouting bullshit like "My order is absolute" (though I admit that was badass as fuck). Both teams are playing with all their heart, the fight was intense and the most important thing of all is that they're friendly with each other and they're having fun. After all this is just a game. But will all that said Seirin will beat Kaijo. |
 |
| Awww, Midorima and Takao cried! they cried manly tears of manliness lol! Kise can copy Akashi too and combine the generations movies! doesn't that really make him by far the most powerful? I would think so. |
 |
| Kise so far is dominating, I wonder how long that'll last though. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Well damn. That's like playing against the whole Generation of Miracles team D: I hope Kise can't copy Kuroko or Kagami's moves. That would suck balls. As much as I love my handsome Kise, I want him to lose when it's against Seirin hahaha xP |
| It's still the start of the game and Kise is already singlehandedly carrying the match. I can't believe it's all a call back to that one training match at the beginning of season 1. |
| something that were missing for me in the last match returned in this one, probably the present of kuroko and kagami. i actually thought kise couldn't copied akashi's eye, but now that he can (though probably not entirely) he's really kinda invincible. and riko expecting only kagami zone to beat is actually pretty quick, it's like she's giving up from the start, i actually believe they would be able to beat kise pretty easily, and i have kind of idea how. |
| Well, due of the stipulations of the story Seirin are fated to win the game, but I'm happy that at least Kaijo will look as good as they can regardless. I Kise too OP. I think Kise should be able to beat Aomine now? Didn't expect he even copy Akashi. It's possible, considering that Aomine hasn't practiced for a long time now. As for this game, my take is that Kagami and Kuroko's teamwork will advance to a next level, instead of Kagami beating him in a simple 1-on-1 (that would be simply lame).Yep.  |
  |
| That loss hurt. Emotional ending to Shutoku. Midorima has grown so much. Same goes for Kise, the boy is going wild right off the bat. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| O m g when Takao’s voice broke & he said he was sorry, he couldn’t cheer Midorima up......their tears!!!!!! (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`) I love Takao, Suzuki Tatsuhisa is amazing♡ 不僥不屈 Shūtoku!!!!!! Kise is so FUCKING hot................................. Flashback!Aomine is everything. His smile is so precious!!!! I actually got the chills when Seirin caught the jump ball. The hype was unreal, after Seirin was out of the spotlight for what felt like forever. |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Forcing yourself to keep your head high after a heartbreaking loss not the greatest of feelings. Sad for Shutoku but that's a given in the game. Seirin's semifinal underway, and they already clueless in front of Kise. Invincible perfect copy shooting canons from the get go. |
 |
| Shin-chan and Takao, there, there, there, there. Well-played! Kise please don't act being cute, nah don't act being serious, no, just don't do anything, not safe for me. The vibes from this match, K V S, Man. Seirin cannot fulfilled their promise at Inter-high~ And they promised this semi-final, so it's time!~~~ |
