Kuroko's Basketball

Kuroko's Basketball is Production I.G's high-energy basketball sports anime — a series that takes the sport to hyperbolic extremes, with players whose abilities border on the supernatural, and somehow makes every game feel genuinely tense and exciting despite the escalating implausibility. Tetsuya Kuroko, the shadowy sixth man of the legendary Generation of Miracles — five basketball prodigies who could each single-handedly dominate any team — partners with the physical powerhouse Taiga Kagami to defeat his former teammates one by one. Each of the Generation of Miracles represents a distinct supernatural ability: Midorima's perfect long-range shooting, Aomine's formless drive, Murasakibara's paint dominance. The Rakuzan final match remains one of the most satisfying sports anime conclusions ever produced. For basketball fans who want the sport pushed to anime extremes with genuine emotional stakes, Kuroko's Basketball is an essential watch.
