i feel like i am more connected to slam dunk then kuroko's basketball

I grew up reading Slam Dunk,I haven’t experienced another sports series like it until Haikyuu

Slam dunk is the best anime i have aver seen, like sakuragi and his team had only lost once up until kainan and their previous close victories had really make me believe they would win again but nope, it hit like a truck easily my favourite episode

Slam Dunk is in another level …. The GOAT of Sports Mangas

Who wins in a 7 game series

I hate Kuruko. That ghost trick won't work on real game.

As a ball player Kuroko is an exaggeration of players special traits or abilities (ball handling, shooting, speed, hops etc.) when players grow into their own n develop new skills on top of there mastered one ex. A windmill layup from the right to the left a simple “double clutch could b done but cuz it’s mastered u add some jelly to it” what I like bout kuroko is it shows that now shits definitely in an extreme way like midorima shootin full courts n aomine drawin a foul throwin it behind his back. But it’s the expression of the moveset showing how skilled players develop their skill to a point where it seems like they got “powers” or “abilities”

imo. slam dunk is a better show because it shows you that "mamba mentality" state you need to get to become good at what you're trying to achieve. in the other hand kuroko's basketball is made to make you love basketball at first. so i recommend watch koruko's basketball at first if ur a complete novice to this sport and then slam dunk.

Yall done making episodes?

10:20 don’t forget about Blue lock

Man I love slam dunk, and I’m sorry I couldn’t bare watching kuroko no basket, it just felt way too shonen for my liking, I understand why some people like it but for me nothing can beat slam dunk when it come to being realistic but fun at the same time, some anime’s try to be realistic but by doing that they take the fun away but slam dunk did it perfectly.

I personally thought this film was good. It was nice to see Indigenous Australians portayed as people deserving of dignity & respect. Yes, it was a film about an emotional journey moe than anything else but, it was quite well written & Simone Landers played her role as Thoomi very well.

Haikyu and Slam Dunk is the best example of realism.

The reason Egon had it out for Ulrich is because he saw his face in the "satinist kid murderer" from 1953. He associated it with some evil from birth look. Teen Ulrich being a rebel and listening to metal just helped confirm his bias

I both love this anime. their equally awesome to me. Maybe I just like how Kuroko na basuke's interpretation of the best player in each team. Enter the zone which specifically is just playing much harder than anyone else with extreme focus plus the undeniable talent. I like at the end part of the anime too when they show that the real zone is making your team mates join you in the zone which only means a 100% team chemistry just like how a number of championship teams are in sport.

Mas maganda ang slam dunk for me, though fan din ako mg kuroko no basuke. No one can top slam dunk when it comes to basketball anime and nostalgia. Nakakatawa talaga ang slam dunk genuinely at may sense of appeal.

Sakuragi entered the zone when he fought ryonan

I agree with most points you guys made. Also that old man side quest, totally stole the main plot, wasting time searching for an old record with not much interactions happening. While the side characters are barely used, they always at the same place.. The thing that really annoying me, was the jump cuts during important moments, you expect a emotional scene, but it cuts to the next scene or day, for example (during the phone exchange, and when the record broke.) And all the times things were happening through plot conveniences. It's uneven pacing and lack of a narrative depth, prevents it from reaching its full potential. I give this movie is 5, the animation is visually pretty to look at with its unique artstyle and the top notch voice acting does help bring the characters to live. A silent voice also flawed, was way better than this movie.

Mutiverse of madness

there is no way he could have told the same story outside of a flashback tho. the material we have is great. i also think this arc contrasts the next one perfectly

For me, I'll go with Kuroko's Basketball because it's entertaining, engaging, and exciting seeing Serin take on and beat the GoM's. Because of Kuroko, I got back into playing basketball again. I honestly don't care if this series is unrealistic because 1 we watch anime to be entertained. Anine tends to take something grounded in reality and pushes it to the extreme, and when done well, people will love it. 2, if you really care about realism in anime, you might as well watch an nba game because you can't get realer than that. That being said, Slamdunk is a great show and personally, I like its music better than Kuroko's.

AnJ is a great sports anime is because it isn't mainly about sports. It's about Joe and his life. It's about the personal drama he has with his opponents and the people closest to him. The fights in the Joe are fights that have a ton of context and backstory behind them. They're the culmination of the personal connections he's built with however he's about to fight. The only other media which I can make a 100% comparison to AnJ are the Rocky movies and Raging Bull

I’m pretty sure sagaraki is kagamis dad

It’s really hard for me to get past a few chapters of kuroko. The basketball moves don’t make any sense and I can hardly laugh at anything. Maybe I am just too old for it. Slam dunk on the other hand is way more realistic and I still love it after rereading it several times as an adult.

I love both of them

Watched both but I prefer SD 🏀♥️ It was very inspiring ✨ watching how Sakuragi leveled up from picking fights with delinquents and facing a potential bad future to an aspiring basketball player who gets to compete and hang out with the coolest and most ambitious athletes like Maki and Sendoh It just shows to young kids especially how making a right choice can completely change the outcome of your life...

Funny thing is i think the first season is the best. The rest of the seasons its like every episode is will they or wont they and Chuck breaks up with gfs all of a sudden and then more of the same. Y dont u trust me bs that might happen literally every single episode.

Bball in Philippines made me quit the sport. Settling in US and 90's NBA made me picked up the ball. SD made me appreciate the sport. Today's NBA sucks. But KnB made me realize why i do not want to let go of my passion for sport. When my Dad passed away and didn't have final words with him, i realized basketball was one of the few things we really bonded. So i play it as many times as i can like no tomorrow.

As someone who's an actual fan of basketball. I just can't take kuroko no basket seriously.

“My shooting range is the whole court” This tops any sports anime 😂

What’s the actual song from this scene???

Slam Dunk is for Legends Kuroko is for kids

When talking about Street Fight Hanamichi Sakuragi can solo all the Generation of Miracles😆

blasphemy , don't compare legendary masterpiece to a cringe superpower shit show

I though kuroko was the main protagonist

Slam Dunk, Ashita No Joe, Hajime No Ippo, Ping Pong (Taiyo Matsumoto) are the best spokon mangas ever. Then comes the rest.

I know this video is old but. I would like to say the jumping throwing dunk is realistic because blake griffin did it all the time. Got many of highlights doing it. I always felt his character was based on blake griffin who is a red haired mixed kid who plays forward with an insane jumping ability.

Joe made all the goats we have today😔

A classic. Had to come back to hear this one today

Ashita no Joe was not a "fighting" manga with mindless serial publication in mind. It was explicitly published as an outlet against the pressure of the old generation upon the new, who were essentially treating them like monoliths and second class citizens on the basis of age and experience. The early chapters of Ashita no Joe became a sobering grounding point for many of the Japanese youth showing how dehumanized and boxed-in they were, and how conformity by force affected their mentality going forward. The manga was the politest "fuck you" to the parents and grandparents of 50s and 60s Japanese babies and the Japanese working class, who basically used the manga to declare that their future was their own and not of the previous generation's. Irony of ironies that that generation has forgotten what Joe taught them all those years ago in the present day.

Finished the entire series. Man... Kinda wish I didn't. I CAN ONLY WATCH IT FOR THE FIRST TIME ONCE...

You wouldn't happen to know where i can watch it because I can't find it anywhere besides three episodes of season 2 which looks amazing.

I think Joshu was meant to be hated lmao

daredevil is classic hollywod driven racism where generic white guy gets magical ability to be better at martial arts than trained asian men, making asian men faceless evil NPCs to an evil but cool asian female - just another media piece to instill hatred and apathy towards the asian populace and empower white men simultaneously

Tried watching Kuroko but I just can't get around the absurdity of their powers. They all seem alien and using it to play sports just seems cheating really. As a basketball player and fan, the journey is far more important than the outcome. You see NBA teams win championship, but the process to get there is what really inspires. Slam Dunk is all that. They are not a powerhouse team, Sakuragi doesn't even know how to play, but the journey they took as a team is what separates them from others. And as a viewer, you see their growth and really a part of it. Slam Dunk literally made popular the sports anime genre all around the world. Until now, even with a short run as an anime. Slam Dunk still remembered and celebrated.

Slam Dunk is always the best!

Slam Dunk is made by someone who truly love the sport of basketball. KNB is a sports themed story which just happens to choose basketball as a theme.

I am not from the generation that saw this manga in real time, but it is the only manga I have read more than 30 times.

Tensaaaii is the best

I can't watch Kuroko No Basket. I tried on 3 seperate occasions cause of suggestions. Each time, I couldn't go through the first 3 episodes without getting mad about the special powers. I figured it out: Kuroko NB is an anime about basketball, and follows all the conventions found in anime. Slam Dunk is a love letter to basketball choosing anime/manga as its medium. I am a basketball fan before I am an anime fan. If you've watched every anime and are interested in basketball enough to catch the NBA Finals every year, Kuroko NB is for you. If you're an anime fan but follow up-and-coming highschool basketball phenoms, regularly watch vintage games/read up on vintage basketball storylines, or spent time in a highschool team yourself - Slam Dunk is for you. It's for me for all those reasons.
