[ Releído en 2023. ]
Continúa el partido y considerando que la especialidad de Haizaki es robar jugadas de otros, Kaijo gana el juego, sin embargo, la lesión de Kise en el pie empeora.
Mientras tanto, los chicos de Seirin se preparan para la siguiente contienda. Aomine le regala sus tenis a Kagami pues los suyos no aguantaron el uso rudo. Así mismo, el as de Touou aprovecha para hacerle ver que todavía ha alcanzado su límite y que le falta mucho por aprender.
Ya más tarde empieza el partido entre Shutoku y Rakuzan, lo que quiere decir que Midorima y Akashi se enfrentarán para decidir quién será el finalista de la Winter Cup.
Con el paso de los capítulos hemos visto cómo Midorima ha crecido muchísimo y pasa de ser un mocoso arrogante a alguien que puede confiar en sus compañeros de equipo. Si bien es uno de los chicos prodigio de la Generación de los Milagros, existen otros 5 crowned kings que están a la altura de ellos, y tres de ellos pertenecen a Rakuzan: Reo, Kotarou y Nebuya, por lo que las apuestas están reñidas.
Akashi usa su Emperor eye, un dribbleo tan rápido que actúa como ankle breaker y desequilibra al jugador frente suyo. Rakuzan adelanta un montón de puntos, pero Shutoku está lejos de rendirse. ¡¿Cómo terminará este partido?!
Este volumen contiene los capítulos 172 – 180.
Read if for the #MiniMangaReadathon.

This volume is incredible. Since I constantly forget all the stuff that happens, I decided to "liveblog" it to some extent.
Kise's match with doucheface was amazing, but even more.. A) Tetsuya cheered for him even though he never raises his voice, B) Aomine defended and protected him, and Tetsuya, Kagami and Kise's match.
The Perfect Copy does worry me, though. I suppose his injury will lighten the pressure SOMEWHAT, but.. Yeah. Duuude.
Seeing Midorima and Akashi's teams is kind of overwhelming. I'm bad with faces, but in this case it's so much lacking backstory. The pace still feels right, but I think it proves that Fujimaki has treated us like frogs he wanted to cook. He started slowly and then, bam, suddenly we were frogsoup: There's just more and more power, more tension, etc. People who would have gotten entire chapters singularely before are now thrown together in a three page "special".
I liked the encounters Seirin had with them, which almost makes me believe they will have to battle Rakuzan in the end, but at this point, I just can't tell anymore. (The blonde agile dude who jumped around Kagami was cute, though. o_o Shotaaa! Where's Alex!?)
The thing is, those are the possible outcomes:
Aka vs Midori: Midori
Kii vs Kuro: Kii
--> Mirori vs Kii
Aka vs Midori: Aka
Kii vs Kuro: Kii
--> Aka vs Kii
Aka vs Midori: Midori
Kii vs Kuro: Kuro
--> Midori vs Kuro
Aka vs Midori: Aka
Kii vs Kuro: Kuro
--> Aka vs Kuro
Right now I think Akashi's team will be in the finale, and either Kise's team or Seirin will face them, in which case Kise would most likely lose because of his injury which would have been worsened by the previous match, and Seirin might, too, because Teppei is out, but it's just.. Anything is possible. IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE. O_O
Ooh, Hayama is cute and skilled and everything I ever wanted. *Sansa face*
No, but so far I love how.. well, there is tension, but the game is calm. It's not that it's cold, but it works differently then many/most/all of the other matches in the series. It has an entirely different vibe. Also Midorima has gotten better and better, as has his team. This is getting exciting!
What the fuck, Akashi's power is super crazy. Daamn. Now I want a series of chapters just about him. But then, no, I don't. His personality might destroy it..
No, Takao. Don't ever stop, I beg of you.
OH MY GOD THAT SHOT WITH TAKAO PASSING AND MIDORIMA JFC WHAT DID JUST HAPPEN O___________________________________________O
"To make this kind of shot, he must really trust his teammates."
I'm so done with this fucking series, I'm not even trying to make these comments seem coherent or anything, fuck everything.
Takao and Midorima.. Shadow and Light-like.. Akashi acknowledging.. yasdjkadfjk
I don't even know what to say about this fucking tankobon, it was .. no.

Semakin dibaca, semakin sadar bahwa banyak banget karakter yang loveable di series Kurobas (terutama Kise dan Aomine, what the hell makin keren!!). Tapi aku tetap kepincutnya dengan Murasakibara (yh).
Jujur semakin mendekati volume akhir setiap pertandingannya makin bikin tegang. Untung selalu ada jeda yang lucu (QnA dengan komikus dan NG scene) yang bikin ketawa biar gak stres-stres amat membaca pertandingan basket SMA ini.

AKASHI MY SUNSHINE ❤️❤️
October 23, 2017
Ohh my oh my. If Aomine didn't stop Hizaki for Kise's sake. It's love everybody and that adding of Kuroko to the phrase was totally unrelated. I mean come on!! what does Kuroko has to do with Hizaki?The whole volume was nice as it ended with my second OTP Midorima and Takao, they really showed how deep and strong their relationship is.

guess who just found her new favorite manga?
honestly, i did not expect to like kuroko's basketball as much as i did because all this hyped-up shit always disappoint me but for the first time in a long time i actually LOVED something that was hyped up like you guys don't understand how much i love this. this is like the new aftg for me. i would read this everyday if i could.
kuroko, aomine and akashi are my favs, they're my people.

I'm glad we basically skipped right over mister violent guy. Felt kind of pointless but whatever maybe an editor or reader surveys convinced Fujimaki to drop that garbage. Now we get to see Akashi look at things really hard!

Amo a Akashi es mi personaje favorito 💕
July 21, 2018
I think Aomine became a good guy. It means his behavior back to when he was Kuroko’s partner.
July 3, 2021
Don't know why but didn't expect that from Kise!!
It is getting more interesting.

What?! This Haizaki could steal moves?! O_o i want Kise-kun's team to win. Haizaki is a jerk! He's honestly getting on my nerves. So annoying. So direspectful. Tsk.
That part when Kuroko shouted that he believes in Kise ♡ awwww hahaha! Woah! Kise used Midorima's shot! O_O go Kaijou! Wooh! They won. Kise is amazing!
Omg! Aomine punched Haizaki! Yeah! He should've hit him some more. Lol eh? Both Kuroko and Kagami's shoes are destroyed? Awww Aomine lend his shoes to Kagami. Haha Whut? Razukan has the other remaining 3 members of "Crownless Generals"?! O_o well, shit.
It's time. "Shuutoku" VS "Rakuzan" i have a feeling it will be Rakuzan though. Maybe. Haha. But Midorima got the 1st point. He shot a 3-pointer right away. Wooh! Go "Shuutoku" XD hahaha
Shiiit. Akashi is scary! O_O he can read peoples' movements beforehand. He can even do that "Ankle break" which disrupts your opponents' balance by dribbling super fast. Damn. They couldn't even keep standing up. Scarily amazing! Woah! That roaring pass of Takao. Sugoii! Haha! Midorima was already in shooting position when the ball was passed to him. Hahaha! Everyone's faces were like: "What the? Why is he doing that? He doesnt even have the ball yet" lmao XD

this vol is awesam! i love the match between Rakuzen and Shuutoko, it is brilliantly drawn- the moves are very smoove! the whole Takao-Shintarou combo was v epic, i wish to see more of it. i am kinda disappointed that Midorima lost AGAIN though. i tell you, the guy hasnt won a single match in his life. this only means that hence-to-forth Pai-Kagami will beat Akashi in his stead which cheeses me off, i really wish it was Midorima which taught him a lesson, but nooo~, every epic win against a powerful opponent must be done by Kagami and Kagami alone.
anyhoo, we now have the Kaijo vs Seirin match to look forward to. i suspect Kise may enter the zone and things will get bad-ass. i can already predict that Seirin will win (no surprise, and another loss for Kise. i tell you, Kise and Midorima need to up their game and win an important match) so i wont be on edge in the slightest i dare admit, but lets just hope the skills displayed will make up for that.

The thing about sports manga - or shonen manga in general I guess - is that they're really predictable. Which doesn't bother me as such - it's part of the genre - but in the case of this game -Rakuzan vs. Shuutoku -"it just really hurts. Same goes for the Kaijou - Seirin game - the winner is determined before the game even starts and it just breaks my heart. We never get to see either team win an important match, and while I know this is just how it is I don't have to like it. Shinchan especially has grown so much it's just really not fair. At least he has Takao.
When I read this the first time, I read the scans (something I haven't done in over two years) until past the Teikou flashback, but I never logged them. I wonder whether the next match and the flashback won't seem quite as tedious when I can read them in one go - I am not the kind of person who enjoys reading sports manga chapter by chapter.

Akashi VS Midorima.
Akashi's specialty... wow. He's like... Sasuke. Cool! He's only a first year but he already is the Captain of Rakuzen Gakuen's Basketball team! And Midorima! He improved! Wonder who will win?
Love that the Generation of Miracles are all shown. Well, I think there's still one that is not. Hmmm... Anyway, conclusion would be on next volume! Then it's Kise VS Kagami again for the Winter cup!

Amazing!!!!! I never thought I could came to like Midorima this much!!! And his playing with Takao makes me so happy!
We finally get to see more about Akashi and, darn son, he's scary! (Those 'Emperor Eyes' are frightening!).
I'd be really happy if Shutoku wins because Midorima has grown so much as a character but I think the final will be Rakuzan vs. Seirin :/
However this was my last book of the year! (And I'm glad because is one from the KnB series that I love) Happy New Year guys!

Puedo darle 10 estrellas . Akashi sí que es un personaje. Madre mía! Shintarou creo puede dar más pero no sé porqué lo dean ahi. Shutoku vs Rakuzan es un partidazo de debería darnos el detalle de todos los puntos, no me cansaría , de verdad.
Kise es tan lindo con Kagami y Kuroko TT_TT ayy.

Sempre appassionate e spettacolare. L'unico difetto è che più progredisce la storia più si perde il contatto con la realtà (a differenza di quel capolavoro di spokon manga che è Slam Dunk). E Akashi è la massima espressione di questa parte.

I really enjoy reading this basketball manga. Great match storylines. A lot of strong opponents with good background.
