    Akashi is one of the best "final boss" characters i've ever seen in anime. His ability works really well with his personality and not only is he a godtier player and captain, he had a crucial part in the gom team imploding as well. Not to mention how cool scenes and lines he gets

  • @FullMetalAZNAMAN
    @FullMetalAZNAMAN 5 місяців тому +5

    This match is actually my favorite match in the entire series. So many good moments!! Like I believe its also the first time you hear Midorima actually yell/scream anything. He breaks his cool and calm demeanor when he screams "Akashi!!". Midorima's quote of " There is no shame in falling. The only shame is not getting back up!" is definitely apart my gym motivation! lol Also Akashi's quote of "You exceeded my expectations of you but not what I could imagine of you." is such another cool way to show much of a strategist Akashi is. He may be the most arrogant person you can be but he won't underestimate someone in a competitive setting. He is just like Aomine in that they both have never lost but how they have achieved that and how they are strong are different in many ways.

  • @REVAMPEDROSES

    Akashi is one of the best villains in anime. I love how he remains a mystery until the third season, we're introduced to all these amazing generation of miracles players and you cant help wondering "what about the captain, how could he possibly be better than Kise, Aomine, etc...".
    And then, when you finally meet him, he makes Midorima look like a helpless child who cant even stay on his feet against him.
    Akashi is an emporer, a ruler, and his will and orders are absolute.

    • @4RedJohn
      @4RedJohn 5 місяців тому +13

      I often heard an opinion that Aomine should've been the main antagonist, as he's the closest with Kuroko and it would've been more emotional. But I disagree with this completely. Their relationship is tragic on their own way, but Kuroko's main goal is to prove his ideal of basketball to be the superior one. That's the title of the anime and the entire point of it. He wants to defeat his former colleagues and help them understand. Akashi is his worst opponent in this war, simply because he's the most intelligent one who convinced the other four to accept his ideal of selfish basketball. Even during the Touou arc Aomine mentions "Akashi was right. Your basketball cannot win" long time before we actually meet Akashi.
      To prove his point, Kuroko has to defeat Akashi. And the way it was built upon truly makes Akashi a great villain.

    Idk if anyone has told you what emperor eye is but it’s not like a superpower. It is if it was in real life but it’s defined by the fact that Akashi just sees the small movements and details in how your body moves including things like small muscle interactions that allow him to predict what you’re going to do next.
    So when they say, he just sees it, they really mean it

    24:30 So something that might not translate super well, let's call it a fun fact?, is that this character, Reo Mibuchi , is pretty much an "okama" stereotype; that is a feminine, flamboyant gay man/trans person, or a drag queen. It's visible in the way he speaks and in the way he moves. Hayame even calls him "Reo-nee" like "onee-san", that is "big sister" so basically "Sis Reo"

    I loved watching your reaction to Midorima and Takao's plan.
    As for Akashi, I love him. He's the perfect ultimate villain for Kuroko no Basket and his realism mixed with his backstory which will be told eventually makes him such an appealing character. I like most of the characters, but Akashi, Kise, Midorima and Aomine the most.

Like his whole thing is muscles and strength but that isn't a very unique attribute especially since Kiyoshi can easily hold is own and muradakibara would probably absolutely dump him.
