| Epic stuff...Aomine is pretty cool even though he's a complete dick. Its hard to find characters like that. It was nice seeing a happy and fun side to him with the flashbacks and all. The opening act sure seems tough and I expected nothing less from the glasses wearing captain but Sakurai was very unexpected with that 3 pointer. |

| Screw what I said in any previous episode discussions, Aomine/Grimmjow/Archer is pretty much my favourite Kuroko No Basket character now, along with Kagami. This game/arc will decide it for me, between the 2. The build up was nice and the backstory on Teiko was very insightful. Aomine's internal conflict was comprehensible. Kise's growth was also really fun to watch and Midorima seems to have never changed lol. Once again, they always put Momoi in there at the worst possible time! My attention got snatched in one fell swoop again lol. Then they switch your mood so fast with the teams preparing, DAMN IT! The ending of the episode once again leaves you craving more. next week can't come any sooner. |
 |
| Once again another great episode. Aomine is way too good, he really is the best player. Maybe Kagami will wake him up. I'm really looking forward to how this game will go. Momoi fan service ftw! |

mijuku-nii said: The amount of emotions in this anime is too damn high. It gives me goosebumps. Lol at Riko calling her dad a pervert. It pretty much felt like the relationship I have with my father. Also, cute ending illustation. As always. Exactly, I had no idea that basketball was so dramatic =.= |

| Wow! They certainly build this Aomine dude to a godly level. Also if he felt like his too good for Japan then why didn't he try going outside. Then he would have eaten a nice humble pie. Btw i love the white school uniform on Riko.  kittybell said: Is it just me or did the animation seem different somehow from previous ones? Kind of more sudden movements and and... I can't even explain it but it was a little weird and didn't seem in the 'spirit' of what was done till now. Maybe it's just due to lack of sleep on my part and things moving too quickly. =P I'm certain that guy running at the end was moving very funny. rebelakuma said: That weak-looking and always apologizing guy was the most unexpected of all! Tsk tsk.. opening act huh? Haha. Only if you never seen anime before. Otherwise it was expected as fuck. They where showing him so much apologizing and playing weak that it was like raising a big flag screaming "We are trying to make you notice how much of a weakling this guy seems to be so we can show him strong later". |

| Very good episode, and I loved Aomine's past... I know what is going to happen and I can't wait to see it :3 Also I am glad the changes the OP in some scenes, and I am starting to like it more now!!! |
| I was loosing my interest in this show, but this episode was really exiting. I'm looking forward to the next episode. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| That was extreme episode. I laughed the most when all members were preparing to match (Riko's dad, you pervert!). Yep, Aomine is a true monster. SEIRIN FAITOOOO! |
| ☆ |
| Wow lol Aomine's kind of a jerk XD Not just kind of actually ... he's just a jerk :P Plus OK wow Kagami you sound like such a jealous lover omg O_O Love middle school flashbacks XD Aomine's past is very interesting; although I can understand his mindset, I'm not particularly sympathetic towards him. Or empathetic. Whatever. Although bringing up Tiger Woods and Shaq was certainly interesting, considering where they are now. AOMINE PLAYING WITH KISE WAS SO FREAKING ADORABLE ♥ Plus Kuroko's fistbumps with Aomine and then LEFT HANGING and then Kagami ohohohoho ICWATUDIDTHAR ;O Lol so Aomine doesn't even show up for the first half? I actually LOVE their team though. GLASSES CAPTAIN IS AMAZING XD Plus apologetic guy (Sakurai I think) ahahahaha XD Oh and Midorima doesn't want to watch :P If they truly are the "opening act" then Aomine will be a monster ... but ... knowing them they'll probably win again? |

| Lol @ that Azumanga Daioh refrence XD |
 |
| LMAO at the Tiger Woods and Shaq reference But yeah Aomine is a dick. They need to break that il- I mean crush his arrogance |
 |
| Nice episode , can't wait for the next match =] |
 |
| I don't like his backstory. He's too arrogant and I can't wait for Kagami to show him his place. They'll probably lose this one though. Coach needs to get laid already. Man she's the most annoying character I saw this year. The animation quality dropped at the end of the episode. Hope the match is better animated in the next episodes. Their movements were funny in this episode. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| aomine definitely seems like the deepest miracle member in the series so far. amazing job showing his change of thinking when everyone just gives up and there's no competition for him anymore and loses his love for the game. very realistic. another great episode. series just keeps getting better |
| how strong aomine is... |
     |
| Seirin's already having problems with Touou without Aomine. Dundundundunnn. |
| I love the "sorry" guy. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Poor Aomine. Somehow, I pity him. "What's the fun about basketball anymore?" Nice episode as usual :) The Kuroko #2 is so freaking cute! ^^ Lol at Kagami esp. the part where the dog barked and he immediately went to the door XD The coach is so funny in this episode.. poor her XD |
| Couldn't they make it more obvious that Seirin is going to be crushed during this game? (Mind you, this is not a spoiler, just my personal guess) |
| ~SEE YOU SPACE COWBOY |
| Awh, Ao-kun used to be sooo adorbs when he was happy back then with Kurokochin D; |
| i know aoimine's an asshole but like i love him too much anyways his past/logic was interesting and all the angst about not finding his equal almost sparkled a red sign posing kagami as his eternal rival/equal/narusasufrenemy thing |
| Seirin's first game is against Touou Acamedy. Aomine started to skip practice cause he was too good of a player so he didn't enjoy playing basketball anymore.And it didn't help that his opponents started to quit in the middle of games cause they knew they'd lose anyways. Aomine be overly confident isn't going to show up till the 2nd quarter ends. Seirin thinks this means they'll widen the gap between the point in the first 2 quarter but wrong,Touou Acamedy has other tough players. lindsayzzz said: Funny how Mitobe's family are all talkative while he never says a word.Next episode preview was funny too,with Riko's lack of growth XD. |
| I call bs if the last hidden generation of miracles player is better than Aomine. I honestly don't see how they can win. Maybe this will be their first loss. I havent seen them improve. |
 |
| Lmao at Kagami walking on his hands. And his expression when Kuroko called him stupid. I can't stand how lighthearted Aomine used to look. ;A; I wonder what could have been done to prevent Aomine from changing? Something when he was first realizing how strong he was becoming. Kuroko did say something to rekindle the fire but it didn't last long because he realized how much his opponent's spirits were crushed by him. :/ So he just became even more bitter and jaded. I really want Kagami and Kuroko to show Aomine that spirit Aomine's looking for, and that strength. Maybe it'll take a while but they'll get there. Fist bumps. <3 It was cute and funny seeing glimpses of Seirin's families. XD Ahh such a cute end card! |
| 眠れないのは君のせい |
| 5/5 That was really a nice episode! I'm really loving Aomine's character. So he used to be Kuroko's light in middle school. Its really sad to see how Aomine ignored Kuroko's brofist. |
 |
| Aomine is beast. One of the few characters in anime I can't hate despite being arrogant as f*ck. Though you see where he's coming from, it'll change once he's found some real challenge again |
| Hmmm, this is kokoro-breaking, why did Aomine grow up to be such an arrogant prick? I'm sure he's trying to be nice though. . . Not training more. He's already OP huh. . . |
| Aw, Tetsu 2 has a uniform! When Aomine gets there, they're screwed. |
| Aomine can be late for the game, but the rest of his team can play without him.... |

| Kagami's legs are obviously not yet fully healed, let's see how he goes. |
| If this is just the opening act *___* I'm so hypeed!! !!! !! ! Aomine, that guy. I like him for some reason. Being #1 without rivals is so sad. Oh and the coach looks so cute with glasses! Aaaaand. I forgot to mention how cute that puppy is, just like Kuroko ^_____^ |
 |
| Aomine is such a dick to his teammates. Not only that, but he's also considered to be playing at Shaquille O'Neil and Tiger Woods level. I guess his backstory tells us why and how he's such a dick. He really needs a rival otherwise basketball isn't fun for him. But lol, Aomine and Momoi aren't part of Senshinkan. Lol Kagami used his hands to walk. Dat fist bump. Awesome how they showed the morning routines of Seirin. Aww, Tetsuya Number 2 is so cute in his jersey. Seirin vs Touou begins! Woah, Aomine's only coming during the second half, but the opening act seem like pretty tough opponents already. Dat Sakurai. Let's see what Seirin can do. |
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. |
| Ohhh this looks like it's gonna be a tough match between Seiren vs. the opening acts LOL When Aomine gets there it looks like it'll be deadly, can't wait to see how he plays! I wonder if Seiren will actually be able to win this one...D: Aomine's definitely an arrogant little shit...I love him. :3 |
| Aomine epitomizes "douchey." |
| Kagami couldn't play, awww. Aomine doesn't practice because already no one is good enough to beat him and he doesn't want to get better lol. Makes sense I guess. He overslept too and won't be there until the second half. So he used to be Kuroko's light. Cool. For the opening act they are pretty good! |
 |
| Sakurai saying sorry and then shooting a three-pointer afterwards, lol. I enjoyed every bit of this episode, as usual. Reim_Seranth said: I did.Btw, did anyone noticed how similar looking Akashi is with Sasori from Naruto? |
 “Even if the attention isn’t forever, I’ll keep singing.” |
| This game won't be easy for Seirin. Even without Aomine, Touou is very strong. I don't like the guy who always says sorry though. That is just over-the-top annoying. I'm also wondering if Kagami is actually well enough to jump? He said he didn't feel any pain in his legs but Riko said he won't be able to play. |
 |
| Aomine is so full of himself........... ....I love it! lol |
 . . . . . ✘ . . . . .DO NOT touch my rice. . . . . . I'm Asian. . . . . . |
| Number 2 is too cute! Hard game ahead, even without Aomine. |
| lmao what's with that guy playing with his eyes closed |
