In the anime universe "Basketball Kuroko," all the characters in the central storyline have distinctive features. The plot is tied to the confrontation of Japanese high schools in a basketball tournament. Once there was a “generation of miracles" - a team of the five most powerful players that no one could resist. With the transition to high schools, the group dispersed and now consists of different teams. The story affects the relationship of the heroes on and off the court. You can read about the most important personalities of anime in this material.
Stealth as a weapon
In the series "Basketball Kuroko" the characters are unique, but it is one of the main characters of Tetsuya Kuroko that deserves special attention. The team of “generation of miracles” consisted of five strong players, but there were legends about the sixth member of the group. He was called a phantom basketball player, because opponents could never feel his presence nearby. That is what became Kuroko’s main weapon. On the court, he could not stand out with feints, equipment or excellent shots. Instead, the hero used stealth to intercept the ball and accurate passes to his allies. That is why Tetsuya has always been considered a phantom player. In life, he is a quiet and kind boy. His weakness lies in cute animals, Kuroko behaves respectfully with the girls, which surprised his friend Kagami. This does not even interfere with a strange understanding of humor. Kuroko is completely satisfied with the position of an assistant, because he loves the game.
Fury and power
In the 1st season of “Kuroko Basketball”, the second main character enters the arena of action. He assigned a significant place in the plot. His name is Kagami Taiga - a native of Japan moved to the United States, where he studied in high school. He is fond of basketball, and in his homeland he was attracted by the level of local athletes, including the “generation of miracles”. Kagami wanted to surpass these talented players. He was greatly surprised by the presence of Kuroko in that unique and invincible group. Taiga developed the ability to feel the strength of his opponents.
At the first meeting with Tetsuya, it seemed to him that the guy had completely no skills. However, he was taken to the team and Kagami as well. The guy was tall and knew how to do high jumps over long distances. This helped in attack and defense. Only the most skilled basketball players managed to throw the Taiga block. The purpose of his life is to fight for the first position among all the high school players in Japan. To do this, he needs to beat each of the legendary "generation of miracles." He and Tetsuya are incredibly different personalities. In life, they constantly tease each other, but on the site they differ in coordinated team actions. Kagami Taiga does not study well, even English tests are difficult for him to pass. The guy lives alone and cooks well. He had to learn cooking because of his brutal appetite.
Two craftsmen
Among all the characters in “Kuroko Basketball,” many fans like it precisely Aomine Dyke. In this “generation of miracles” this guy’s incredible skills for playing started to show up before anyone else. When the second game year began, no one could even compare closely with Dyke. He was fond of streetball since childhood, and moved movements from this game to a professional site. His style is unique, because Aomine elects movements during the confrontation. In his arsenal of hundreds of combinations, his movements are difficult to read, because of which the opponents simply give up during the game. Dyke's skills reached such heights that he alone could beat teams.
The morale was gone, and Aomine wanted to play her favorite basketball. Everything has changed since his first meeting on the site against the Kagami. One of the main antagonists in the anime "Kuroko Basketball" was Seijuro Akashi. This guy has the talent to lead people, which allows him to become a leader. He was the captain of the "generation of miracles" for three consecutive years. With the transition to high school, Akashi assembled a new team. At that time, he was so accustomed to victories that he considered receiving them a natural course of events. For him, winning became a natural thing. Those who challenged him, he severely punished his talent for deceiving his sight. Only the first defeat in life made Seijuro understand what he had been lacking for all these years.
Talented heroes
All the characters in Besketball Kuroko are associated with the sports game of the same name, but only members of the “generation of miracles” possessed innate talents. Others developed their skills through hard work. Shintaro Midorim did not need this. The vice-captain of the former legendary team has supernatural accuracy. This player could easily throw the ball into the basket from any distance, he just need to aim. He makes his “shots” with his left hand, and therefore always keeps it bandaged. He explains this by the need to be fully prepared.
Midorima hates fooling around, but gets into ridiculous situations regularly thanks to a friend of Takao. Shintaro believes in the predictions of the horoscope about himself, and for a mysterious reason they always come true. He does not like the company of people, but even hates to show simulated kindness when necessary.
With him in the Teiko team, nicknamed the “generation of miracles”, was Atsushi Murasakibara. This big fan of sweets held the position of center protector. Its huge growth and broad shoulders made it possible to easily block any attacks of opponents on the site. He managed to play basketball effortlessly, and other people's attempts to succeed through labor in the game annoyed Atsushi. He became famous for steel defense and complete seriousness on the site. Outside of her, Murasakibara behaves like a young child. This often unbalances his interlocutors.
Life on the site
In the anime "Kuroko Basketball", the final players in the "generation of miracles" is Reta Kise. This favorite of the public, especially female representatives, stands out for its appearance. Blond hair, a great sense of style, a bright smile - this helps him find fans. He is not shy to say that in that legendary team he was the weakest player. Kise began to engage in this sport only in the second grade of high school. He was inspired by Aomene's phenomenal abilities. The guy’s main weapon is an impeccable copying technique. It is enough for him once to see the enemy’s technique, as he already masters it, adding new elements or feints.
Reta cannot copy only unique skills. For example, he could not inherit other members of Teiko’s team. He is a kind and helpful person, always treated Kuroko well. So Kise behaves and the site, and its complete opposite is Hanamiya Makoto. This guy is among the "uncrowned generals." These are five powerful players who were a year older than the "generation of miracles." They differ in their own abilities. In Makoto, the trick is a dirty game. The guy presses on his opponent, makes mistakes, inflicts invisible physical damage, and the team helps him in this. Hanamia was nicknamed the "spider" because it catches opponents on its site in its networks.
The team of protagonists
In Season 1 of Kuroko's Basketball, it is revealed that the main story centers around the Sairin team. This is a team with its own interesting story. It has a place for players with different characters. This list includes Rinnosuke Mitobe. This guy never talks, he prefers to be silent and not to show his emotions. It is possible to understand his thoughts only in some unknown way by Kogany.
Mitobe was born into a large family. As an older brother, he is trying to keep track of all relatives and help them. The guy has a predisposition to cooking, all his dishes have an exquisite taste. The hero has established himself as an incredible hard worker. Not possessing a talent for the game, he seeks to improve his skills, constantly trains and wants to win with his team. He perfectly presses opponents with more powerful physical data and makes “hook” throws.
Teppei Kiyoshi has great authority on the Sairin team. It was he who founded the basketball team here, but did not appear in the anime right away. He was absent due to an injured knee. The guy can play perfectly in the position of center and point guard. For some time he combined positions, which no one had succeeded before. His main skill is perfect planning. Cunning and insight help in this matter. All the time, he reads the actions of opponents on the site, and his layout often gives a positive result. Teppei loves the role of a misunderstood fool, but he is respected in basketball circles, even by members of the "generation of miracles."
Harmonious work
All the characters of “Kuroko Basketball” that appeared on the screens at one time or another, do not attach spectators to themselves. The focus is on the central characters. These include Junpei Hyuga. This player takes the position of an attacker and is distinguished by his three-point shots. He achieved astounding results exactly exactly on his own. His hobby is collecting figurines of ancient Japanese warriors. If a slip occurs during training, Hyuuga destroys one of the valuable exhibits in the collection. This helped develop powerful throwing skills, even under severe pressure.
The guy is kind by nature, it is pleasant to have a conversation with him, but sometimes pride and arrogance are not alien to him. The Hyuuga is the player who leads the Sairin team forward. He is able to set the right pace for the game, although at one time he almost threw basketball due to failures in high school. Teppei managed to regain his desire to fight with his persistence in creating the club.
Another member of the Sairin team is Shinji Koganei. This guy is universal in the game, because of which he cannot achieve true success in one position. The club coach always says that he does not show himself well in any business. Shinji is notable for good throws from any distance, although his accuracy is slightly lower than that of the Hyuuga. Outside the basketball court, he often finds himself in stupid situations, although he is one of the best students in the class.
Remaining Sairin Team Members
The last player in the lineup founded by the Teppei club is Xiong Izuki. On the court, this guy is always sober-minded and has a great strategy. He insures Teppei and sees with his "eagle eye" the movement of any opponent. Xiong always uses his keen mind for the good of the team. Off the court, the guy is constantly joking using a pun with the same or the same meaning. Because of this, it often remains incomprehensible, and sometimes gets reprimanded for it. No other shortcomings were noticed behind him; in communication, Izuki showed himself to be a good conversationalist.
A lot of screen time in the anime was received by the head coach of the Sairin team named Rico Aida. The girl is only at first glance an ordinary student. She just needs a look at the guy to appreciate the potential. If he is stripped to the waist, then the result will be as accurate as possible. From early childhood, the girl helped her father, who also worked as a sports coach. So she developed the aforementioned ability. To its wards, it is extremely strict, requires maximum return, and it itself draws up training regimes. If a player drives Rico into a rage, she uses force on him. Nature did not deprive her of beauty, but rested on forms, which led to a certain complex. Rico is an excellent coach, but in terms of cooking - she is a leader from the end of the list. The dishes prepared by her cannot even be tasted.
Worthy of Mention
In the anime "Kuroko Basketball" a huge number of players appear on the screen. The main attention is concentrated on some, others play the role of secondary characters, and still others act as the backdrop for the main events. Yukio Kasamatsu belongs to the second category, because the captain of the Kaidze school team is very committed to the game. The guy is used to expressing emotions in an aggressive manner, he never restrains himself. Yukio shows excellent abilities as a point guard. The player is training hard, and is too fanatical for matches. His dissatisfaction is often expressed by assault in relation to other allies.
Nevertheless, Kasamatsu is trying exclusively for his associates, because he sees the potential in them and wants to lead to victory. Another strong player is Iwamura Tsutomu - captain of the Seiyo club. He is distinguished by a large physique, in which he performs graceful movements. Fighting him under the ring is almost impossible. He perfectly shows himself in selective blocks and interceptions. With these skills, Iwamura became famous throughout Japan as one of the best centers. On the site and in life, he prefers to remain calm, and also to think soberly.
Important personalities
Not all characters in Kuroko’s Basketball go directly to the court, but they are more or less connected with the game. This applies to Satsuki Momoi, who was previously the manager of the team of “generation of miracles”. She has impressive abilities, even Rico is forced to admit it. The girl phenomenally determines the level of player power through the collection of information. Satsuki is enough to observe the character to find out all the important data about him. Thanks to this, she was given the position of manager at Too High School.
Momoi was once very interested in Kuroko, because she could not determine his true strength. The girl has sincere feelings for the main character, constantly seems to be his chosen one. She went to Too school only because of Aomine, with whom she had been friends since childhood. There was a place in the plot for sophomore Tatsuya Himuro. He also lived in America, where he met the Kagami. It was Tatsuya who showed him the basketball, which he subsequently began to live. Their friendship cracked when Taiga surpassed Himuro in level, but decided to give in. This greatly offended the mentor Kagami, although in the anime their relationship improved again.
