Greedusк манге

Cons:
— Of the first years, only Kuroko and Kagame play, the rest are purely cheerleading. I don’t count one training game from the 20th series, because we weren’t shown anything in essence;
— All opponents behave like scourges in order to arouse more positive emotions and approval in the viewer after their defeat. An old time-tested trick (and a cliche as well). Another trick is the unusual hair/eye color that tells us that the character is at least a minor character. All third-rate Persians and extras have at most one distinguishing feature in the form of, for example, glasses or hairstyles. It's also kind of a cliché. But the main problem is that the viewer absolutely does not give a damn about everyone except the colored guys, because the rest of us are practically not disclosed in any way. This leads to a certain monotony of what is happening as a result, because the focus is always "colored", and the rest serve as storytellers;
— Aomine is shown to us literally as the god of basketball. What kind of imbs are waiting for us further in order to block this - it's scary to imagine;
— Over time, it starts to become boring, because there is no deep idea, truly unique / written characters, or a complex (that is, interesting) universe - the guys just go to the dream without any other "additives", sometimes meeting failures along the way. It is difficult to make something complex and serious out of an anime about sports, if at all possible. Luckily, the last 5 episodes are bringing back interest;
— The outcome of the matches can be determined in the first minutes of the series. I foresee that the players of the Generation of Miracles will once again unite and assemble their own team, this time along with Kagami. They will go to the world level and fight against the same USA, from where Kagami returned. And judging by the strength of Aomine, each player will awaken the Sharingan;


Minor cons:
— It's subjective, but I don't like introducing something or someone without a single hint of their existence earlier for the sake of a sudden "power boost". This Teppei came out of nowhere, but is personified as a player stronger than Kagami;
— Maybe I misunderstood something, but in the anime, it was said that the Seirin team only existed for a year by the first episode. However, the coach said that they had fought the "kings" already as many as 10 times. The tournament is held twice a year - in summer and winter. Some kind of inconsistency, it turns out;
— Still, sometimes some Persians seem to just disappear. For example, here are two in the center of the field - they are bypassed and then they calmly score the ball without resistance. The other three players are not even shown.


In the end, this is a simple anime about two "heroes" who must defeat each "boss" in the gym. Don't give up, don't be afraid to rely on others, but above all improve yourself, and if something doesn't work out, just find a different approach. All this is seasoned with quite epic "battles", although not without its drawbacks. It is these "battles" that will have to be watched for 70% of the anime season, which is why they start to become boring, because the hands are tied by the "sports" category.
After the series, the 10th interest in anime declines and almost reaches zero by the 20th series, which serves as a breath of fresh air, diluting the atmosphere and returning interest in what is happening. In the end, we are given the best "fight" of the entire season and are given intrigue to continue.

Cons&Questions:
— Another bastard opponent, over which there will be the most pleasant victory. Cheap.
— Predicting match results is just as easy. Actually, I don't even know, is it a con, because "plot armor" is characteristic of the main characters of most shonens. Although I also predicted matches without Seirin. Meh.
— HEY, JUDGE, ARE YOU TOTALLY BLIND? Okay, in the beginning they did do dirty tricks more or less imperceptibly, but now it doesn’t fit anywhere. On the other hand, here the guy with invisibility, so idk is it fair to count is as con... And a small double laugh with a bloody wound on the forehead from an elbow strike on the bridge of the nose.
— First-graders still remain in the form of support. Well, okay, anyway, it's too late to do anything, because it will not be interesting to watch them.
— Still, the problem with the Persians disappearing and appearing out of nowhere remained. Now no one stops the chela, does not even try, then, on the contrary, the ball is taken away from where it was impossible to suddenly appear.
— Aomine’s divinity has been shown to us again. Akashi, I assume, will be God above all Gods, like some kind of Zeus? I’ll add after watching the entire season: I don’t row at all what the battle of the sages of the six paths will be after what I saw ... In fact, everyone had sharingans.
— If a second player is needed to perform an invisible pass, how then did Kuroko train him and perform one on one with Momoi and Kagami? The explanation of going diagonally will not work here.
— I'm sure Kuroko didn't lose any future against Tōō academy by using reverse invisibility." It just can't work like that. Here, drama was clearly caught up just to be.
— "The accuracy of shots in basketball is on average 50-60%", yeah, and in the anime about 90%. Although it is worth noting that in the end the percentage of misses increased slightly.
— Somehow too many "pianos in the bushes." Something is going wrong - it's time to use "that very tactic", "that very technique" or "awaken that very ability" that, most often, has not been mentioned before.
— Just a question: if Murasakibara didn't enter the stream, what then?" Just for epicness, they drew the same lines from the eyes? And by the way, the anime tried to raise the viewer's opinion of him, showing that he didn't give up in the end and played to the end, and even cried when he lost, but no, I won't forget his behavior towards other players until now.
— Here, too, I didn’t understand a little: Aomine said that Kagami would not cope with Murasakibara in the stream (apparently due to the fact that Mura is more talented), but Kagami coped with Aomine, and he is, after all, an ace of the generation of miracles, that is, he has talent also do not take.
— I knew that Seirin would win, of course, but why the heck call the episode “Victory!”? Who loves to spoil in the studio?


Basically, the main idea of ​​the title has not changed. The animation has become better, although there were repetitions of entire segments. The soundtrack also seemed better, though not by much. I began to become attached to the main chars, but I still do not care about Teppei and on the rest of the second years, because far from everyone can understand Teppei's problem (his trauma is a shame, of course, but in general, idc about him), and the rest of the team were essentially forgotten towards the end. Opponents are still the same bastards until they are defeated, which, in my opinion, is a small minus (apparently the creator thought that otherwise it would not be interesting to watch). A certain monotony also remained, but, as I assume, this is inherent in all sports anime to one degree or another.

Animation - 8/10;
Sound - 7/10;
World/Story - N/A;
Characters - 7/10;
Pleasure - 8.5/10

The final score is 8/10.
As an anime about sports, it’s not very bad, but it seems to me that it draws more on hype / epic moments than on well-developed complex Persians, situations, and even more so the world with a plot (the fate of not all, but most works about sports), so It's hard to objectively

1-3 — 2/10;
4-6 — 3/10;
7-11 — 7/10;
12-16 — 8/10;
17-22 — 6/10;
23-26 — 8.5/10.

I liked the visuals and the fact that the plot is not so predictable.
The first season gave us only bits and pieces of information about the world after the great disaster. More attention, it seemed to me, was given to the development of several characters. Anime combines both elements of dark mystery and humor.
So far, the only thing I didn’t like was that a certain character became an as**ole and the reason wasn't shown to us.
