animé sama j'irai te voir dans ma prochaine viettel
He is very unpopular with girls, having been rejected an astonishing fifty times. In his first year at Shohoku High School, Sakuragi meets Haruko Akagi, the girl of his dreams, and is overjoyed when she is not repulsed or scared of him like all the other girls he has asked out. Haruko, recognizing Sakuragi's athleticism, introduces him to the Shohoku basketball team. Sakuragi is reluctant to join the team at first, as he has no prior experience in sports and thinks that basketball is a game for losers because his latest rejection was in favor of a basketball player.
Despite his extreme immaturity and fiery temper, he proves to be a natural athlete and joins the team, mainly in the hopes of impressing and getting closer to Haruko. Later on, Sakuragi realizes that he has come to actually love the sport, despite having previously played primarily because of his crush on Haruko. Kaede Rukawa—Sakuragi's bitter rival (both in basketball and because Haruko has a massive, albeit one-sided, crush on Rukawa), the star rookie and a "girl magnet"—joins the team at the same time. Not long after, Hisashi Mitsui, a skilled three-point shooter and ex–junior high school MVP, and Ryota Miyagi, a short but fast point guard, both rejoin the team and together these four struggle to fulfill team captain Takenori Akagi's dream of winning the national championship. Collectively, these misfits gain publicity and the once little-known Shohoku basketball team becomes an all-star contender in Japan, which gains popularity after defeating one of the powerhouse high school teams at the national high school championship. Production[edit] Inoue became inspired to make Slam Dunk as he had liked basketball since his high school years. After Inoue started Slam Dunk, he was surprised when he began receiving letters from
readers that said they started playing the sport due to the manga.
