    It's a well done sports anime, even better imo than diamond no ace which is currently ongoing atm. They may be different sports... but unless you plan to go into Basquash, there's only so much you can do to create an original story. It's not really cliche to me, but it actually makes me rewatch certain episodes multiple times. I do that for most anime, but only when I'm bored. Kuroko no Basket actually makes me want to rewatch it. Hard to find content like that nowadays, coming from a sports themed anime.

    Character development is pretty nice. I can't delve any deeper than this due to spoilers, but they don't start out op, and it's exciting to watch the individual characters grow as stand-alone players, and together as a team.

    It's an innovative basketball anime that uses a unique style of play to give it an original touch, and it works. Each respective character has something they excel at, and the other players compliment their faults rather well.

    All in all, it's a must as far as sports anime go. I'll prolly rewatch the first two seasons before the third comes out just to get in the mood.

    I never liked sports anime but I did like Kuroko no Basuke. It's like your typical shounen anime except with basketball instead of evil and fighting and that stuff. LOL.

    The only sport anime I could ever stomach was Slam Dunk.

    Slam Dunk - 10/10 Good old days
    Kuroku No Basket - 11/10 Must watch by anyone
    Haikyuu! - 11/10 Must watch by volleyball fans
    Eyeshield 21

    Those are my sports anime that I have watched and I can really recommend KNB and Haikyuu if you both love basketball and volleyball.

    I heard Haikyuu! was really good too, yeah. I'll probably end up watching that soon.

    I just finished watching Sakura Trick last night :^)

    Slam Dunk was good in both portraying emotions and comedy. Manly tears were shed when Shohoku lost to Kainan. Hopefully someone studio pick its up for continuation or a reboot.

    Kuruko no Basket is something that I watch for it's "coolness". I know it's ridiculous to think that someone can make a sure shot from an end of the court to another but that's just something you'd have to deal with considering it's a shounen anime.

    Hajime no Ippo is something that I watch for the qualities that both Slam Dunk and Kurko no Basket have. I'm not really a fan of boxing but do I find the show entertaining enough follow.

    One Outs, I'm definitely not a fan of baseball but you don't really watch this show mainly for what sport it is about but for the mindfuck the MC delivers every episode.

    As for the chart next season, besides Kuroko no Basket, I'm also looking forward to Durarara x2, A/Z 2 and Tokyo Ghoul 2. I'm probably gonna be checking a few more such as Death Parade because based Madhouse and Soukyuu no Fafner: Dead Aggressor Exodus because I have all the previous seasons and movies on my external hd for a long time now but haven't got to watch any of it yet tho I heard it has a lot of similarities with Gundam Seed besides the character design.

    Umineko no naku koro ni.... well I really loved it. The light novels and the game are just awesome! Bernkastel, Furudu Erika and Featherine Avgustus Avrora are the best!

    @K don't work because my forum account is bugged and it's probably because of the single letter as forum name, lol. Sadly it's not enough reason to ask for another name change so I'll have to suck it up and use a bugged forum account.

    Oh, Terra Formars "uncensored" episodes finally out. I actually stopped watching it around episode 5 cuz the amount of censored scenes are too damn high. Now, at last they provide the uncensored episodes from 4-7.

    Okaygaiz gtg, lets check the changes!
