Thank god the match is finally over, but I have to admit..This was the BEST episode of Knb 2. Poor Aomine though, he's my favorite character in knb and it's sad to see him lose ;__________;

Insane action when seeing both players in the Zone go head-to-head. Pure awesomeness.

Finally Aomine suffers the taste of defeat. Well, at least he returned Kuroko's fist bump.
Touou's third-years are retiring... maybe Kuroko's misdirection could work on the newer Touou players.
I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN

Awesome. Pure Electricity !! Kagami's character and play are growing a lot now with these games. The winter Cup has really started with a bang :D

And the animation of the Aomine v/s Kagami really has been top notch !! Looking forward to the next game already.

Btw, is there enough materials to make a third season late this year of early next year? If ever they're going to do it that fast. Just asking.

This was chapter ~139, manga currently has 248.
So yeah more than enough material for another season.

Honestly I can't stand with the anime pacing.. so after enduring my curiosity for some time, I decided to go with the manga instead while still keep on track with the anime..

even though I know the outcome before the battle even starts.. but WHOA!!! the anime sure gives me the chills either by the action movements (especially at the beggining of this ep.. Ahomine vs Bakagami) or the atmosphere..

Ahomine vs Bakagami


X'D I'm like dying! How come I've never thought of that?! "Ahomine"! I've never seen anyone else write it either! It's fucking perfect!!
The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being.

Well, that was intense and awesome.

That brofist though *feels* and that sleeping scene was cute.

Looks like Kagama has a chick in the house. At first, I thought it was Momoi (big boobs) but it's a blondie. ok.

Waiting every week for a new episode was so aggravating. But I'm so glad it's over. Kuroko and Aomine are back to being buds...sort of. That fist bump. <3

Next episode we finally see Alex-onee-chan!

Took 20 minutes (ok, 15) to end 2 minute game. Simply too long, especially since there was no way for them to lose this time against the same team they already lost to.

Honestly, I wasn't impressed, at all. Then again, I am hard to please and love moving fast in anime. Hopefully next games will last a bit shorter.

Holy shit!This was so damn fucking epic that after finishing the episode I was grinning like an idiot for,like,10 minutes or so.And I don't want to know how that looked xD
This was by far the best episode for the second season and one of the best KnB episodes in general.
The Aomine and Kuroko fist scene,I so cannot.At the end of the episode I was crying my eyes out of joy,that hit me right in the feels.I was waiting for this for two months and it was pure awesomeness.
Can't wait to see Alex in the next episode.Or should I correct myself,can't wait to see Alex in Kagami's house xD
Yaoi is love~

Feel like Aomine got cheated now way was that 5 seconds from the rebound to Kagamis finish. I mean Aomine cleared the ball that alone should have lasted 5 seconds. Let alone kuroko chasing it and passing it to kagami. Good episode bad ending.

I was pumped throughout the whole episode, it was just too damn epic. This was definitely the best episode of Kuroko no Basket (including both seasons), it was simply perfect.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

uh, for sure yes......at the rate they're going right now, they'll probably need a season 4.

It took them 2 seasons just to get to the end of the yosen match around chp 160. They're on 248 right now in the middle of the rakuzan final. So yeah, they're probably going to need 2 full seasons just to take it to the end of the winter cup.

A really epic episode...

Those zones are just amazing !
And that fist bump just made me like aokuro lots more.
Seriously.. so many aokuro, kagakuro moments there.
Kuroko believing in Kagami making that shot.
Aomine back to himself and fistbump kuroko.
Kagami carrying Kuroko when he's about to fell.

This anime taught me a great lesson.. it taught me not to give up on things no matter how hard it is.
Seeing how hard Seirin works to win the game make me realized that I should work hard in my life too. ><

It's great to see Aomine back to himself.
And Seirin deserves to win. Kagami put so much effort on him.. the whole team is counting on him to win! Can't believe he improved so much !!
They deserve a nap after the game. Kuroko sleeping beside Kagami is just cute :3

And next week we're going to peek in Kagami's house ! Alexander is waiting there... lols.
And Aomine get to talk more to Kuroko again. :)

What a beast of an episode.
Believe the next match will be Seirin Vs Yosen..

Seems correct according to other people who've posted here.

Both Aomine and Kagami are both bloody awesome.
Dat fist bump. Best moment.

LOL! That is exactly the first thing that pop out in my mind when I first saw it.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

This anime series is great, but far from the greatest sport anime. It's a sport anime huh, but this isn't really sport anymore, they are going like Super Saiyan mode there now, this anime is far from real basketball. And Aomine was defeated, I can't imagine what SSJ mode we will see in the next "battle".

Not hating on the series, but it's getting too crazy in my honest opinion. Slam Dunk was more for my taste, because it didn't have these absurd superpowers.


Ahahaha... you're cute. Try reading New Prince of Tennis then. Or, as some peeps like to call it... Tennis Ball Z. Things in KnB are nowhere near what's in NPoT. You can actually demolish a concrete wall w/ a tennis ball there. I wouldn't even be surprised if a ball was actually able to destroy a tank in a new chapter...

Although they're pretty exciting thanks to the ost, drawings and lines, the matches are kinda becoming Dragon Ball no Basket. I guess this'll be the last season I watch for this show.
