The last basketball-related manga I've read and liked was Slam Dunk, the other ones just didn't interest me enough, but this one has a really intriguing concept that makes me want to read more.

fairly interesting, and nice take on the main character's ability being his obtrusiveness, but i was somewhat turned off by the notion that the 'miracle generation' was awesome because it was made up of a bunch of individually talented players. If anyone recalls the tragedy of America's 2004 Olympic basketball journey, where a collection of individually incredibly talented players could only win 3rd place due to a lack of working together and practice as a team, you would know that basketball is definitely a team sport.

And in chapters 7-8, when the main character's team was able to whittle down the point differential somewhat from the cooperation of the main character & the guy who went to USA for middle school, the one giant question in my mind was this: if the other team was supposed to be so strong and a regular contender at the nationals, why aren't they able to pass out of a simple double team? If the 2 strongest players are covering one guy, it should be easy to pass to another member of the team (recall that the female manager states that the stats of all the opposing team members are great) and score points. It's basic basketball strategy and made me question somewhat the plausibility of this manga, or the mangaka's understanding of basketball.

i stopped after that, but i may give it a go again after a bit.

first of all, I don't even like basketball that much (let alone sports).
I only started reading this manga after I saw a picture of Kuroko (haha) but i've come to really like and enjoy this series. I hope it has a long run.

This basketball manga is interesting and entertaining, it is different from other mangas. This manga truly shows that everyone has their own unique talents and that the weak can also be strong. This manga is very unpredictable since you get used to the idea that the strong will always climb higher and that the weak does nothing. Also the chapters are short that makes you really want to read the next chapter and it doesn't drags or repeat like other sport mangas.

Wow! This manga is very good! The start it's very intresting, and the following chapter are good too. Finally something new... lately every sport manga i've seen have been identical to the previous one.
