this was released in 2008 with the series in 2012. you can already get that it was a different time which is why I consider this story a standard to sports anime. the tropes, cliches and the plot itself may be awful for most but that's just cause we now live in a time where there's better anime out there. but back in the day knb was THE anime i waited every lunch time to watch on tv despite being nudged on the head by my uncle who wanted to watch "real basketball" in a different channel. new readers don't get the hype when the op song starts or when kuroko passes the ball to kagami or when a player goes into the zone. it's phenomenal honestly.
