A little note on the magenta-haired player! He's called "Akashi", the "-chin" part is an even more "cute" and "childish" version of "-chan". It's not as common as "-chan", but as was shown in this episode, Murasakibara uses it for his friends (Kuro-chin, Aka-chin etc) ^^
The honorifics come up a lot in this show as it says a lot about the relationship between the people talking. Not just -san, -kun, etc but also if the person uses their first or last name when speaking, eg Kuroko vs Testsuya (or Tetsu).
So, to confirm what you understood, yes, whenever they say regular in this context it's to mean starting player. Regarding the episode, yes, Akashi is a very mysterious and omnious character and he is very interesting once the story starts going forward and showing us more about the Generation of Miracles, both as high schoolers and as middle schoolers. Murasakibara is another cool character, being huge and a very physical player. As for Aomine, the more we find out about him, especially his past and his skill level, the more interesting he gets. I think he is the most complex character in the show and one of my favorite characters. Now, I think the funniest scene in this episode is catching the purse snatcher. Like, how on earth did Midorima manage to throw a box of popsicles hard enough that it flew as high as it did and managed to catch up to a scooter?! And how was he so accurate to hit a fast moving target at that distance, especially since throwing that box is very different from throwing a basketball?! That's really another level of skill. He shouldn't be that good, but that's the goofy and unrealistic part about Kuroko no Basket that I love, it's so ridiculous it's hilarious.
Thanks for the good reaction. I thought that clarification of roles was the theme of this episode. I guess there was also a place for the difference between team sports and individual sports. I'll post my personal recommendations for different types of sports anime. Baseball: Ace of Diamonds Soccer: Giant Killing (main character is a coach), Blue Rock (main character is a striker), Aoshi (focus on modern tactics) Figure skating: Yuri on Ice Long distance running: run with the wind Tennis: Baby Steps Road Race: Yowa Mushi Pedal
Some context Akachin is Akashi and he's really relevant later on but he gets called Akachin cause honourifics and his haircut is similar to kuroko cause a draft of the series had them as siblings
Didn't know that second part. That would have been pretty interesting. I think in this OVA you could believe that, because even there personalities and lack of presence feel the same here. It is just Akashi is clearly well respected for his observational skills and strategy by others, where as Kuroko doesn't have an immediate quality to make himself stand out.
I love this ova so much, we just get to see how kise turns from doubting kuroko to become his absolute fanboy and having so much respect for him. He definitely likes kuroko the most, because all the time he wants to play basketball with kuroko and want him to join his team, he definitely the biggest kuroko fanboy ever.
Honorifics are the way to call people’s name respectfully. Japanese people tend to use it when u meet somebody first time or to an older people. For example, Aomine senpai, Aomine kun, Aomine san etc
if I remember correctly they will show up on season 2, but you will only see Murasakibara (purple hair) play on season 2, season 3 is where we see all the games where Akashi plays, it's going to be something special
The mangaka of kuroko no basket had First the Plan to dran kuroko and Akashi as siblings in the Manga. But he rejected the idea that you can Tell quite well from the haircut that Both have a pony at teiko times.
can't wait for season 2!!! it is definitely my favorite season and the budget goes way up. also my favorite character murasakibara (purple hair guy) so excited for him
An honorific is an addition to a name that is used to show respect in formal situations, like chan, kun, senpai, sensei, sama, each have their own meanings though, but going through them all would take quite a bit of time I hope this helps though!
These really are exaggerated proportions but when I was in high school a elementary schooler who was a basketball athlete joined our taekwondo club, I thought we were the same age because of his physique. He was already around 5’8” and his muscles were already defined that’s why he was sparring with us instead of kids his age😭
One thing about the names of miracles generation: Aomine => Ao is blue in japanese Midorima => Midori is green Akashi => Aka is red Kiise => kiiro is yelow Murasakibara => Murasaki is purple Kuroko => kuro is black. And kanjis Kuroko is absent person!
the next OVAs are for Season 2: Ep 16.5 Special for Season 3: Ep 22.5 I'm excited for the next seasons Also don't forget the Last Game Movie after you finished all seasons!!
If you don't mind to some suggestions coach. I would like to check the other sports manga arguably the best sport manga. It is called Slam Dunk. It is more grounded more realistic storytelling. The relationship among the players and the coach is the gem of this manga. It is worth your time, especially if you love great character development story in sport. Then I believe this other manga will relate to your experience. This manga called Rookies. So basically the plotline is quite similar to Ted Lasso (even though it was published before Ted Lasso). Kawato a new teacher who were assigned to become a coach of problematic baseball team consists by delinquent, yet Kawato knows nothing about baseball. But the only thing he know is to push his student to fulfill their optimum potential. I really hope you check them out because the story are great and represent the tough and intense lifestyle in Japanese high school sports competition.
I'm not going too spoilt too much about Akashi, but his design being similar to Kuroko is because during the conception, they were originally created to be twins but the author decided against it in the end. His special abilities (tiny spoiler, but he has two), isn't seeing someone's true potential- that's rather Akashi being a strategic genius. The board game he was playing is Shogi, a Japanese variation of chess. The author revealed, Akashi would have wanted to become a profesional Shogi player if it weren't for basketball.
Honorifics are the epithets used to denote respect when addressing or referring to another person; “-Kun” “-San” and “-Sama” are some examples of such. My understanding is that Japanese is a very formal language, so generally speaking you would only drop the honorific of someone if you are *very* close to them. Hence why Kise was surprised Aomine dropped the honorific when referring to him after only the second time they met.
Your comment is correct. I'd like to add that, more than being a fromal language, Japan has a very fromal culture and very clear hierarchies which relate to the use of honorifics. Not only that, but the language itself has very clearly defined levels of formality that are supposed to be used according to the social hierarchies. When talking with people in Japan, you will usually ecnounter two levels of formality that are more common, Teinei-go, which is the polite form, and is used when talking with strangers and people that are slightly above you in the hierarchy. This form will use the verbs in the -masu form and will involve using the standard honorifics for the person (usually -san for most people, but -sensei is also common to use for people like teachers, doctors, or other figures of authority). The other common form is Futsu-go, which is the casual form (literally it's the normal form). This form uses verbs in their informal conjugation (usually the dictionary form for present and future and the -ta form for past) and may be used with or without honorifics (usually just the -san, as people requiring other honorifics like -sensei or -sama will not be talked to in Futsu-go, but you can also use it with -chan or -kun, usually when talking with children). This form is used with friends, family and other people that are close to you nad in the same social level or lower. As to how close someone needs to be for you to drop the honorifics, it depends on the person. Usually for family you can drop honorifics in day-to-day conversations (maybe for some "noble" families there may be different rules) and for friends, they will usually tell you you don't need to use honorifics when they feel it's fine. An example is that, when I joined a college volleyball club in Japan, most of my teammates, who were boys slightly younger than me (I was 22/23 and they were around 19/20) told me almost straightaway that I didn't need to use honorifics, which probably is related with them being young, sports clubs being more informal settings and me being a foreigner (which usually leads Japanese people to be more flexible with social norms). They also told me to be less formal in general, like how I didn't need to bow as much as I did initially (they even laughed a bit at me for that). Most of my conversations with my teammates, especially during club practice, were very informal. Also, the setting matters. When talking with them outside of practice I did use slightly more formal language.
Regarding OVAs there is one after the series finish that it's the only must watch. Then there are a few that are short parody sketches of the story, the manga had short scenes of 1-3 panels and some were adapted. The rest can be ignored as they are recaps for inbetween seasons but watching the whole show without stop they are unnecesary.All said from memory, hope i'm not foreting anything. Then after all of this there is a movie that basicaly is 1 hour fanservice playing against an american team.
Bro just watch the anime lol, i like ur reactions but stop pausing to point out weird random details, it stops the continuity of the story and the moment ur watching

Midorima really said: “My shooting range is the entire -court- city”
it makes sense though since a box of snacks is much lighter than a basketball
@@zakichan_draws So friction doesn't exist in this world ?

None of the generations are bad guys.
You’ll meet some real villains in s2 and s3

Yes finally seeing what Aomine used to be like and how their interactions changed
So, to confirm what you understood, yes, whenever they say regular in this context it's to mean starting player.

purple hair guy while in middle school is was roughly 6'6 i think and now in the current series hes around 7'2 i think
