Kuroko's Basketball

ENCN
8/ 10

Teiko Middle School's basketball team boasted over a hundred members, highlighted by five geniuses known as the 'Generation of Miracles,' along with a phantom sixth man, Tetsuya Kuroko, who had no official match records and went largely unnoticed. In high school, Kuroko teams up with Taiga Kagami, a powerhouse returnee from the US, vowing to become his shadow and defeat the Generation of Miracles to make Seirin the best in Japan.
