Seirin managed to defeat
team Shutoku but their winning
streak ended after they lost badly to Touhou Academy, whose basketball team included the Ace of the "Generation of Miracles" - Daiki Aomine. After this game, they lost their remaining two matches against Senshinkan and Meisei and were eliminated from the Interhigh. However, a new player arrives to join Seirin - Kiyoshi Teppei, the man who formed the Seirin Basketball team. They spent the entire summer training for the Winter Cup, even coincidentally meeting Shutoku while training. In the preliminaries, they met team Shutoku again. This match ended into a tie, so Seirin needed to defeat team Kirisaki Daichi in order to advance.
The other main issue I have with the show is the art and animation. The character designs are extremely generic, they’re basically the 2017-2023 anime design starter packs. From what I’ve seen of the LN art they really don’t do these characters any justice. There’s a few moments that are supposed to be somewhat serious that just don’t hit for me because of the lack of expressiveness from the character models. I’m not saying it has to be ufotable, but damn, I should at least be able to sense some sort of emotion coming from the characters.
Despite my
criticisms of the series, I did enjoy stretches of it. It starts slow but really picks up once a few side characters are introduced and there’s some really enjoyable moments in this anime. If you can look past the shoddy animation and inconsistent pacing at the start, you’ll find a decent watch with a decently written main character. By the end of the show I was pretty excited for its release on Mondays, so yea, it’s a tricky one. I’d say
give it a shot and see how you like it. It has some interesting ideas and I think it has the bones of a decent story.
