Kuroko no Basket

Hey Guys,

welcome to my not so popular opinion about Kuroko no Basket. Every where I looked people say that this is an amazing series and the best sport anime ever… Yeah… definitely not. I was really disappointed and thought about stop watching all the time. So for the information I watched all three seasons and so obviously it is not so bad.

Sport or Fantasy

The first reason I am not a fan of Kuroko no Basket are all the special powers the 6 miracles have. Let’s start at the beginning. The middle school Teiko had a legendary Basketball club. They won all games and get to be known as the generation of miracles because they are so much better than any other talented player. This was the first were I thought okay maybe I should watch something different…
The story is about the sixth man of the generation of miracles the phantom player Kuroko. Apparently he has so the little presences that people just over look him and forget him in no time. The people on the court are asking them if the player actually was on the court. Which makes him amazingly good in passes…
So like this it goes on. So every member of the generation of miracles has one ability like that. For me it is too much. Yes let them be better than anyone… but they are so overdramatic and for my liking to much in the direction of fantasy.
All of these sixth members chose different high school and are now all enemies. All the other miracles chose schools with good basketball clubs and Kuroko is the only one chosing a little school nobody really knows about.

Kuroko the only exception

All the miracles believe that they are so good that they don’t need another player to win. Kuroko is the exception. He believes that basketball is a team sport and want to prove this by defeating the other miracles. Here cames the reason I stayed with the series. He chooses a light. Kagami is a really talented basketball player who wants to defeat the miracles just because they seem strong. The relationship that developes between Kagami and Kuroko is really amazing. I love their friendship how the help each other and save each other from theirselves. These two and their team – with filled with great and sympatric characters – starting their fight against the miracles. This team is so sweet that you wish them that they win.

Wrong image

But here is also a point I dislike. This playing with injuries. Choosing basketball over getting healed… I hate that this series tells you it is okay to play with bad injuries. It is not okay and when you are injured you should stop playing. Animes should tell other that this is okay. This is destroying your body and we shouldn’t teach that to our children.

The other miracles

There were a second reason to watch the show ’till the end and that was ‘Kikasa’ – Kise Ryouta and Kasamatsu Yukio. Kise is one of the miracles and one of the best characters when he actually start accepting his team and the reason behind it is his captain Kasamatsu. Yes I totally watched the last season only for scenes with them. I love these two.
