Anime Review #1: Kuroko no Basket

It is also sometimes called Kuroko no baske. The name translates to Kuroko's Basketball 

The Generation of Miracles are a group of 5 basketball prodigies. They beat team after team in middle school, but when they all graduate to high school it all changes.

In the story, Kagami Taiga has just enrolled to Seirin High School where he meets Kuroko Tetsuya. Kuroko happens to be the "shadow" sixth member of the legendary Generation of Miracles basketball team in middle school, meaning no one knows he exist besides his teammates. Together, Kagami and Kuroko aim to take their team to the inter-high school championship -- against Kuroko's former teamates! There is a season 2 called Kuroko no Basket 2. So original right? 

Review: 

This is a very interesting anime. If you know me, you now how I'm not a sporty person... at all. It obviously is about basketball and I learned a lot about basketball through this anime, even though they pronounce them weird. It really is action packed, but not very adventure like. It's also funny because of Kuroko and Kagami's fights. Each character has their own personalities, but there are a lot of characters to remember, for example, Midorima Shintarō is obsessed with his Horoscope and luck because his 'power' is long shooting and he can shoot anywhere in the court, meaning he can shoot three-pointers anywhere in the court. Even I understand that is extremely difficult.
