Slam Dunk is a Japanese sports manga that ranks number one in sales. Slam Dunk takes first place as the best manga chosen by Japanese people The movie is so boring, you should read the manga
Bless you all 🙏🏽 I was looking for someone...anyone to react to this. The best basketball anime and choreography I have seen in a long time. I felt like I was watching a real game.
This is the last game in the manga cause the anime stops right before they go to nationals and Hanamichi is actually the main character of the series. The author thought it’d be interesting to give Ryota a backstory cause Ryota doesn’t really get as much shine as the others in the manga so he thought it’d be interesting to give the fans a new story completely.
Yeah but they put too many flashback during epic moment. They even didn't put hanamichi and haruko moment before hanamichi entering the courts again after injured
@@strreiss1308 Because that moment wouldn't make sense for a movie from Miyagi's pov as well as newcomers who don't understand the context of Hanamichi prior to the movie. I don't know why th people failed to comprehend this and just whining about it just for the sake of it
@@zeroskaterz92 yea thats why they just should stick to og story where hanamichi is the MC, the clap between rukawa and hanamichi didn't feel great cuz most people(new for slamdunk) didn't know their chemistry in og.
@@strreiss1308 OG story require the whole context of the story itself which wouldn't work for the duration of the movie. Wtf are you even on about? Your mindset is wrong to think that the movie is replacing the series when it's not. The movie intended as a companion piece to the manga, not replacing it. That's why it's called The First Slam Dunk movie. The author literally wrote and directed the movie himself. It's his decision to make some changes because he wants people to support the manga, not the anime.
Inoue Takehiko, the artist who made this is amazing, even nowadays we can hardly believe that people can draw sports comics like this level. He truly brought visual art to another realm.
The movie is essentially the final arc in the manga. The final scene is actually a reference to the Slam Dunk scholarship (started and funded by the creator of Slam Dunk) program in Japan which funds 18 year old japanese basketball players to American prep schools with the goal of getting them a college scholarship offer. There's actually a player currently playing for Gardner-Webb that's a product of this program.
The Chicago Bulls were the model for the slam dunk. The main character Sakuragi is Dennis Rodman, Michael Jordan is Ryukawa, and the coach is Phil Jackson, right? Slam Dunk was a manga that exploded in popularity in the 1990s and was made into an anime, but the National Championship version was never animated. It was revived after 30 years due to strong fan demand. I think you will enjoy watching the movie version after watching the Slam Dunk anime from the 90s.
@@primawandony4621 Inoue Takehiko, the original author of Slam Dunk, has announced that he has traced the Chicago Bulls during their golden era. If you apply it to the members at the time, that's what you get.
The long hair guy is Number 14 on Shohoku. He had an injury and that led to him going down the wrong path, hanging with delinquents, getting into fights etc. The long hair was his hairstyle from back then. He has a fight with the entire team, and after getting his ass beat by Hanamichi's friends and then getting the taste slapped out his mouth by Akagi, he rejoins the team for the Coach. The long haired guy is basically the three point god in Shohoku.
So glad you two enjoyed this movie man, this is my childhood remake, remastered. This manga series single handedly made basketball cool and popular in the late 90s-early 2000s. If you love the movie please go read the original manga, you will get a better understanding of each character's growth arc and it gives the motives of their actions in this final battle a deeper meaning. This is the best sports manga ever made, no real enemies, no super power shit, no lonesome hero saves all, just real human fighting towards their goals and break their limits. (Kuroko no basket COULD NEVER, here I said it.)
From start until before Sakuragi's flashback scene i went through mixed feelings, the nostalgia, i remembering when i started learning basket, practice like hell, playing with my team in college, playing with my college friends until sunset, the funs i had. Winning tournament, i remember the sweat. Losing tournament, i remember the tears. Exactly at Sakuragi's flashbacks scene i paused the movie, went to my wife behind me on bed, and cried on her shoulder. I told her "....i miss those moments, i miss my friends". To my college friends, i miss you all.
I know that the news in Japan said that it caused a great stir in China, but what makes me even happier is that brothers was so pleased with it that he introduced it to the world!
As a Japanese , this series can be considered a legendary sports anime in Japan. It became popular in the 1990s, making it especially beloved by the parent generation, but it is also well-liked by younger generations.
it is huge in the philippines too.. almost every kid back then knows who is sakuragi.. we even gave one of our pro player the nickname "pinoy sakuragi"
Btw Red head is actually based off Dennis rodman. Appearance wise and play style wise. And slam dunk, is like the best basketball anime of all time, the character design, the story etc, All peak.
They have multiple nods to the original manga and anime series. The one i really love the most is the last one where no conversations are needed. In the manga, the chapter are drawn without any conversations and only when Hanamichi waiting for the pass from Rukawa “Left hand is just to hold the ball” and they captured it beautifully here imo
Slam dunk based on manga released in 1990 and the anime series in 1993. About hanimichi sakuragi, a high schooler with basketball player build and thug attitude who joined his school basketball club initially to impress a girl he liked. In fact this series has influenced basketball growth in Japan significantly. I heard that Slam Dunk also influenced Yuta Watanabe to play basketball. You may wanna start watch the series. It was very funny yet inspiring. although please bear with the anime quality because it was released 30 years ago.
Slam Dunk series happens before the movie. Watching this after the series is way more emotional. And the manga is considered a masterpiece not only between sportsmanga but manga overall.
Just for the context of the story, Sannoh is the favorite to win this tournament and Shohoku is a team to watch but not many expected them to beat this team since they are also the defending champions. They also didnt show the first couple of games that they played prior to this game(i think this is the 3rd round and Shohoku's 2nd opponent in the tournament is no push over) just like some people have said, in the manga and anime, Hanamichi is the main character and he only started playing ball when he entered 1st year in highschool to impress a girl(so during this tournament, he's been playing for way less than a year it probably around 6 months hence why keeps making the most basic of turnovers) but for this movie the creator decided to focus on Miyagi since out of the five starters, his back story wasn't explored much in the manga/anime like the others. I feel like you guys should react to the anime, its a little outdated when it comes to the rules since the manga was released in 1990 and the anime was released in 1993. The jokes could also be considered outdated or even inappropriate due to some characters calling other character Gorilla. But over all, the anime/story is great, which is why this anime/manga is still considered by many as the Godfather of sports manga/anime. And the only sports manga in the all-time best selling mangas of all time. And if you do watch the anime certain things that took place in this movie would make more sense to you. Like why Mitsui gets exhausted easily. This movie is pretty much a "love letter" from the author to the fans of the manga/anime. The author is really passionate about this story and the sport that it revolves around, so much so that when the animation studio tried to force him to change certain thing in the anime and deviate from the manga he told the studio to end the anime, the reason why the anime never reached the ending of the manga until this movie cam out. I Really hope you guys watch the anime and bring more attention to this classic
I grew up watching this anime along side with one piece and dragon ball i miss the good old days, the game winning jump shot sakuragi made he practice that for i forgot how many episodes
Fun fact: The anime ended prematurely because Toei wanted the ending to be changed but the author refused to do so, so he did not sign the contract for thw final arc of the manga. As you all know Shohoku did not win the nationals and even Akagi didn't even get the scholarship he was initially offered to. Toei did not like it as they deemed it to be a negative ending but Takehiko stood his ground because it would be more realistic for Shohoku to lose.
Truth, but Inoue also say that he couldn't made another match exciting as this one against Sano, that's why he ended the manga. Vagavount also is in a eternal hiatus for the same reason.
@@bilogskii2216Rukawa and Sakuragi were eligible for the international game aka FIBA. Inoue could have covered that as well when Sakuragi recovered the next year and Miyagi became captain.
AKAGI - Patrick Ewing SAKURAGI - obviously Dennis Rodman RUKAWA - younger MJ MITSUI - Jeff Hornacek/ Reggie Miller MIYAGI - Kevin Johnson Sawakita (from Sannoh) - 90s MJ This movie was the national tournament after the original series And the final scene was Miyagi and Sawakita playing College Basketball in the U.S.
You actually just watched the final game of Slam Dunk. The last arc is their team, Shohoku going to the nationals; after they beat Sannoh, the team burned out and lose their next game getting them kicked out of the tournament. Sakuragi went to therapy, Rukawa got picked for the national team, Akagi started studying for his college entry exams, Ryota becames the new captain after Akagi and Kogure left and Mitsui keeps getting his stamina back. This movie provided the whole backstory for Ryota since we knew almost nothing about him. Slam Dunk is the manga that made basketball popular in Japan because before, almost nobody played it or watched it. Both Slam Dunk and MJ's Bulls helped. Talking about 90's Bulls, the whole Shohoku team is inspired by them some more clearly than others: Hanamichi Sakuragi : Dennis Rodman/Charles Barkley Kaede Rukawa : Michael Jordan Takenori Akagi : Patrick Ewing/David Robinson Hisashi Mitsui : Reggie Miller/Mark Price Ryota Miyagi : Kevin Johnson Kiminobu Kogure : John Paxson/Toni Kukoc Coach Anzai : Phil Jackson
While slam dunk was heavily influenced by the chicago bull, The manga/anime series was very influencial to the 90s generation if upcoming basketball players in asia. Many people picked up basketball because of slamdunk. By today's standards, the pacing may seem a little slow, just a little.. but the series was a masterpiece in terms of storytelling, far better than kuroko no basuke. The movie waz a much much much awaited continuation of where the anime left off, and a new perspective of where the anime ended. A masterpiece irregardless. Magical if anythin
Hanamichi desing and playstile is inspired on Rodman. Akagi is on his last year and see a light at the end of the tunel with Hanamichi and Rukawa, Shohoku got a future. Hanamichi, Ryo and Mitsui where some kind of trouble kids, almost gang members (like Tokyo Tribe, Tokyo Revengers or Crows) Rukawa is the best on the team and got a beef with Hanamichi, cause Hanamichi lovesHaruko and she loves Rukawa (Rukawa dont give a fuck about Haruko)

RUKAWA - younger MJ
MITSUI - Jeff Hornacek/ Reggie Miller

You actually just watched the final game of Slam Dunk. The last arc is their team, Shohoku going to the nationals; after they beat Sannoh, the team burned out and lose their next game getting them kicked out of the tournament. Sakuragi went to therapy, Rukawa got picked for the national team, Akagi started studying for his college entry exams, Ryota becames the new captain after Akagi and Kogure left and Mitsui keeps getting his stamina back.
This movie provided the whole backstory for Ryota since we knew almost nothing about him.
Slam Dunk is the manga that made basketball popular in Japan because before, almost nobody played it or watched it. Both Slam Dunk and MJ's Bulls helped.
Talking about 90's Bulls, the whole Shohoku team is inspired by them some more clearly than others:
Hanamichi Sakuragi : Dennis Rodman/Charles Barkley
Kaede Rukawa : Michael Jordan
Takenori Akagi : Patrick Ewing/David Robinson
Hisashi Mitsui : Reggie Miller/Mark Price
Ryota Miyagi : Kevin Johnson
Kiminobu Kogure : John Paxson/Toni Kukoc
Coach Anzai : Phil Jackson
While slam dunk was heavily influenced by the chicago bull, The manga/anime series was very influencial to the 90s generation if upcoming basketball players in asia. Many people picked up basketball because of slamdunk. By today's standards, the pacing may seem a little slow, just a little.. but the series was a masterpiece in terms of storytelling, far better than kuroko no basuke.
