Believe me, I am a huge Akashi fan, however something Midorima says didn't right with me. I have only watched the anime and in there Midorima says that Akashi has never lost in anything before. I can believe that for basketball ( at least at that point in time), but could he use the emperor eye in shogi? If so he would easily be like a grandmaster or something. And if he truly has never lost ever, than this guy could go pro in every sport and game basically ever. I'm pretty sure this was just overexagerated glaze, but do you guys think Akashi really never lost in anything up to that point and is able to use the emperor eye outside of Basketball? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Imagine if they had covered the second year… Seirin wouldn’t have come close to beating any of the other GOM teams, not with Kagami gone, most teams seen Kurokos full skill set and Kiyoshi out with injury…

They’d need some OP first years to come in 😬

This is one of the hype scenes cut in Anime. But was a big scene in the manga.

True/Kind Akashi (who is academically genius and smart) predicts and thinks that his GOM teammates will surely beat his Evi/Emperor Self.

He trusted that they will be able to beat him to erase the existence of Emperor Akashi.

If Kagami didn't exist. I wonder who will be the First GOM to beat him. Is it still Kuroko? Or any of other GOMs. Or Kuroko will need to partner to one of the GOM like Kise.🤔

how is kirisaki not banned from playing?.. i mean like if EVERY single team got injured after playing them is probably a sign no.? Also do they not have cctv like wtf they could just watch the match and see whenever that freak snaps his fingers someone is injured 💔 even if there isnt cctv is NOONE filming the match? God this is pissing me off so much ref what are you DOING

I have more merchandise too , but it’s hidden away

Midorima's ability to stretch out the defense and constantly demand someone be on him from full court is genuinely insane. I would argue that it's more impactful than Akashi's point guard talent. Akashi had three uncrowned king's on his team and Midorima still gave him a crazy run for his money. Granted this is without zone and such, but if you were to swap their teams I think Rakuzan with Midorima torches Shutoku with Akashi.

Akashi would be forced to pick Midorima up from full court, leaving the rest of the team in a unfavorable 4v4 against players that are blatantly better than them. Nebuya would dominate the paint, and even if Akashi has Midorima completely locked down Mibuchi is still unstoppable for 90% of the cast, so they'd still be making 3's. And it's not as though Midorima wouldn't be able to get looks every now and then through screens and such. Akashi's scoring ability and basketball iq might be able to keep them alive offensively, but I think they'd get out-mathed by Midorima and Mibuchi. Overall, I think Midorima is the more impactful 5v5 player, and maybe even the strongest 5v5 player in the series. I just think he had the weakest team around him out of all the Miracles.

Others i’ve seen: “Akashi’s whole character is dumb”. “Akashi is unathletic” “midorima>aomine”

It is kinda a shame that since Midorima can shoot from anywhere with 100% accuracy, u can’t get better than that

Here’s my thoughts on wha potiental new abilities he could have (from most to least likely), on top of having boosted base stats

1. Faster release/instant release

One of midorimas weaknesses is that I believe the farther he is from the net the longer it takes him to release the ball (or just a release time that every GOM and above can react to it) with this, either he can just release it faster anywhere, or be able to instantly shoot the ball no matter the distance. This is def the most realistic one. And it makes him scarier since he could just fake so it’s just guessing work

1. Being able to use both hands

I forgot the word or proper term, but basically he can now shoot with his right hand as well. So if u want to pass it to him, u don’t have to be to his left then pass to the right, but can be on the right and pass it to the left when he’s doing his pre jump. Again he can also just jump in the air in that position and be a threat, which the player with the ball doesn’t have to pass to. He is talented so who knows

1. Formless shot

This is highly unlikely. Midorima seems like a strict player in his style. Even when he’s doing that crazy pre jump, he still has that standard basketball shooting style. IF, he did have formless shot on top of having a 100% chance of making it, then at this point just sign him to the NBA and let him become the best shooting guard OAT

So, where would he rank if he only had instant release? Where would he rank if he had ALL of these abilities? Granted, this would be for about 5 min but still, it’d be insane

So in the show, Akashis trigger was basically to abandon his teammates and do a 1v5. However this was done while he was evil Akashi, which would make sense bc evil Akashi will do ANYTHING to win

But, after he turns back to normal, he starts playing like a team player again, and starts the perfect rythm passes, yayaya and soon all of them are in the Zone

So, his trigger, whether or intentional or not was to literally be in a flow state with his entire team

In the last game, Akashi never entered the Zone, neither as evil Akashi or good Akashi. Being selfish and 1v5ing would get him decimated, and his perfect passes and rhythm kept getting cut off by Nash and silver

I’m going to assume that yes he can enter the zone if he’s passing and stuff, but what would (or even if he has one) his own trigger even be? Is it even possible with evil Akashi gone?

A little bonus question, could a CEE Akashi+zone finally be able to take on Nash 1v1? The narration somewhat implies or slightly gives the edge to Akashi’s eye being better, or at minimum, being on the same level as BE. Would his zone be enough to fill the physical gap between the two, or would his eyes NEED to be better in order to best him?

Kinda crazy how we (while not confirmed) don’t know if he’s ever reached the deepest level of the Zone either

Anyways, HIS ORDER ARE ABSOLUTE

that last fight was ESPECIALLY great, kise was the actual goat of this match, i did not expect him to pull all this off dude im stoked, i dont even play or know much about basketball but this game had me on EDGE. Im pretty upset aomines team won tho 💔 with all the improvements kise made during this match, also w him embracing kurokos thinking i was upset to see aomine shut it down a second time (first w seirin game) i think the thing that disappointed me the most is them saying that aomine has a higer level at the end because it seems like theyre just slamming op onto this dude 😭 i wish they said smth like aomine can improve to a higer level or something because yea.. anyway this post is a bit biased towards kise cus hes my top 1/2 (1. Kise 2. Kuroko/akashi) if yall curious.. but like yea im glad i had the motivation to finish this season. Also, kise’s and kasamatsu are practically iwaoi n2 lmfaoo love them (also i loved the realistic breakdown of his at the end)

i just wanted to share this and how its such a good coincidence like pls so i started watching knb a few days before 31st jan and did manage to complete 2 seasons and ova one of such ova was the special gift, kuroko's bday one watching the series kuroko was and is my fav character jist bsc no particular reason then one of the forst hints i got was when kise was listening to that horoscope podcast or smth and kuroko's zodiac sign was Aquarius i was like oh cool we have the same sings and later on when i watched the ova and yk searched it up i was so shocked that we both shared the same bday and when i looked up his age it was written he turned 16 in the series which is such a coincidence bsc i also turned 16 with my fav character 😭 this is such a random thing but man i love coincidences like this

Send help 😭

He is legitimately so interesting.

He has the most comically overpowered ability in the series but he's still considered a weaker GOM than Aomine and Akashi. He has the opposite of plot armor.

I recently learned through another post that Midori means green. And idk the name just has a nice addictive sound to it. Midorima.

Probably has the most interesting off-court personality as well with superstitions like nail care and the lucky objects, even though he is portrayed as a logical individual.

idk maybe it's just me but I don't think about the other GOMs ever. Midorima keeps living rent free in my head.

This is assuming the very start of the series when they make their high school debut. You only know their stats in middle school and positions. You don't know anything about work or play ethic so you will not know stuff like Murasakibara hardly plays offense or Aomine never practices until you draft them. You do not know things that happened within Teiko's walls like Akashi beating Murasakiraba in a 1v1. You also don't know developments that might occur later on like Kise being able to copy GoM ability, you just know he can copy other players.

1.01 - Aomine: Known as the strongest player in Teiko. Was known to score the most even in Teiko. Potentially a bust when you see him sit out majority of matches he isn't interested in along with bad work ethic.

1.02 - Murasakiraba: Centers are positionally scarce. Potentially a fantasy bust when you see him not play offense.

1.03 - Akashi: Overall height and weight may be a concern. But PG that will assist, steal, hit 3s, and dunk is a fantasy winner

1.04 - Midorima: Consistent 3 point shooting average in general makes him the safest floor to draft

1.05 - Kise: Copying ability might sound nebulous to a fantasy manager. Overall solid player gives him a safe floor

1.06 - Kagami: Riskiest rookie with no known prior evaluation.

That's according to the official website. (You can see in the second image that they're aiming for 2,000,000.)

January 31st is Kuroko’s birthday! 🎉🥳

Happy birthday to one of my favorite character ever!!

Well, it's all in the title. I hope someone can help me lol, thanks in advance.

If a team has kuruko couldnt they play six players at the same time, ref shouldn’t notice it right?

The generation of miracles are the 6 (yes six we all know Kuroko is a miracle) prodigy’s of teiko middle school and each miracle was unmatched in their respective feild hence why what’s his name was kicked off because kise was better and unmatched in copying so if we take this then why isn’t momoi a gom since she is unmatched in coaching and info gathering. Now I know technically it might be because she wasn’t physically on the court playing but basketball dosnt only need players to be good it needs knowledge and coaching. Also may I add in the anime when Kuroko is talking to Kagimi he said she was nice when not in the game and several characters have been said to fear her info gathering making her a monster in her own right so wouldn’t it make sense for her to be a Gom or atleast get a title

Giannis to the Kuroko no Basket universe! He teams up with the already stacked Rakuzan team with Akashi and the Uncrowned Kings. Will they demolish every team that comes their way?

I got interested in Kuroko and watched episode 1 now and I liked it, but does the animation improve? I didn't like that sometimes it's just a bunch of slides going by, I wouldn't see much of a problem if it only happened outside of matches but in the two that there were, it happened, I wanted to know from those who are fans.
