Original subtitles

The Teiko Middle School basketball club.

An incredibly strong team with over 100 members

and three consecutive championship wins.

Within their brilliant record,

the generation of five prodigies was known

as the "Generation of Miracles."

However, there was a strange rumor concerning the Generation of Miracles.

Despite being relatively unknown and lacking a game record,

there was one more member recognized by the five prodigies.

A phantom sixth man.

Give it your all, everyone.

This'll be just like the first quarter from here on out.

A back-and-forth run and gun game!

I won't lose. Not to anyone.

Not even Kurokocchi.

Kagami...

If we can get the ball,

there's one more thing we can do that Kise can't copy.

It's a simple strategy that will only work once, though.

Don't let them through!

Kuroko!

He shot the ball?

No...

It's an alley-oop!

This ends now!

EPISODE 5 YOUR BASKETBALL

SEIRIN - KAIJO

All right!

I can't believe we won.

I lost?

For the first time in my life, I...

Huh? What?

Is Kise crying?

I know he must be frustrated, but...

It's just a practice game.

You idiot!

Stop crying.

And you've got some balls to say you've never lost before.

I'll hit you!

You'd better add the word "revenge" to that empty dictionary of yours!

Line up.

With a score of 100 to 98, Seirin High wins.

Thank you very much.

Because we're in different districts, if we play again, it'll be at Inter-High.

We'll be there.

I don't want to confess my love butt-naked.

Let's go!

Yes, sir!

Hey, where's Kise?

Gemini's horoscope predicted terrible luck for you today,

but I didn't think you'd actually lose.

You came to watch, Midorimacchi?

Either way, it was an unfortunate game.

Even a monkey could have managed those dunks.

It's no wonder fate didn't choose your side.

I haven't seen you since middle school. It's good to see you again.

I see you haven't stopped taping your fingers.

Anyway, who cares if I dunk as long as it goes in?

That's why you're no good.

Getting the ball in from up close is easy.

Getting it in from far away has true value.

Didn't anyone teach you to

"do the likeliest, and God will do the best"?

Optimal effort makes you worthy of fate's grace.

I always do my best,

and I always keep the Oha Asa horoscope's lucky item on me.

By the way, today's item is a toy frog.

That is why my shots never miss.

I've never understood that last part.

This is the Generation of Miracles' number one shooter.

Shouldn't you be talking to Kurokocchi instead of me?

There's no need.

B blood types like myself

and A blood types like him never get along.

I not only acknowledge his style, but respect it.

But I cannot accept his decision to attend an obscure school like Seirin.

I simply came because we'll play them in the division preliminaries.

But honestly, they're not good enough.

Midorima, you bastard!

You left me alone in the middle of traffic!

Do you know how embarrassing that is?

I just came to watch the game today.

But allow me to apologize.

There is no way we will lose to Seirin.

I regret to tell you that you should give up on your revenge.

SASAKI GENERAL HOSPITAL

Everything's okay.

That's great.

Sorry for making you worry.

I didn't know what would happen when you fell over.

I'm just glad you're all right.

All right! We won!

Let's get something to eat on the way home.

What do you want?

Something cheap. I'm broke.

-Me too. -So am I.

Hold on.

How much does everyone have after transportation costs?

Let's go home.

Yeah.

FREE STEAK

It's okay. What do you say we go for steak?

SUPER VOLUME 4 KG STEAK EAT IT IN 30 MINUTES OR LESS AND IT'S FREE

THOSE WHO FAIL MUST PAY 10,000 YEN

What's wrong? Don't hold back.

This is too much!

What are we going to do if we can't eat all of this?

What?

Why do you think I make you run every day?

For basketball?

I should know by now that this is how she is.

This steak is steakalicious.

Sorry, but that shit is really annoying right now.

Excuse me.

Do you need some water?

I give up.

Kuroko!

I'm dead.

This is delicious!

Maybe I'll get some more.

If you're not gonna eat that, can I have it?

He's stuffing his cheeks like a squirrel.

Save me the hassle and bring them all over here.

STEAK BOMBER

Kagami, thank you!

RECOMMENDED DISHES

Kise?

Do you have a minute to talk?

Thanks for the food!

Yeah, don't come back!

I think I ate too much.

You really are a monster.

But you saved us.

Okay, let's go home. Is everyone here?

Where's Kuroko?

I'm sure he's near the back, just like he always...

He's not there.

It's been a while since we last talked like this.

How's your injury?

I'm fine.

I saw Midorimacchi.

Honestly, I don't get along with him very well.

Now that you mention it, you're right.

That left hand of his is no joke.

Especially on good days for Cancers.

Yes.

Seems like he just came to watch today's game.

Anyway...

First you turned me down, and then I lost today's game.

Everything's going wrong with my life right now.

I didn't expect you to say yes,

but I was serious.

You'll fall over.

Sorry.

I'm kidding.

Anyway, I wanted to ask you for your reason.

Why did you disappear...

right after the middle school championship game?

I can't believe no one noticed him leave.

I know he's got no presence, but this is ridiculous.

Doesn't Kuroko have a phone?

I can't believe he just disappeared like that.

What is he, a puppy?

Let's just hurry up and find him.

Maybe I'll put him in a Boston crab hold when we do.

Sheesh.

Hey, over here!

Pass me the ball!

Street ball.

It's been a while since I've seen that in Japan.

I'm not sure.

What?

It's true I began to question Teiko's policies

because of the championship game.

I felt we lacked something.

Sports are all about winning.

What could be more important?

Over here!

I thought the same thing until recently.

So, I still don't know exactly what's wrong with it, but...

all I know...

is that at that time I hated basketball.

The feel of the ball.

The squeak of basketball shoes.

The swish of the net.

I started playing because I loved the game.

That's why I was so impressed when I met Kagami.

He loves basketball from the bottom of his heart.

He seems to have been through rough times...

but he still takes basketball more seriously than anyone else.

I don't get it.

I can say one thing, though.

If you think so highly of Kagami

because of his attitude towards basketball...

some day the two of you...

will part ways.

The biggest difference between me

and the other four isn't our physical abilities.

They all have a special ability not even I can imitate.

I realized during today's game that he's still learning.

Just like the Generation of Miracles,

he has a unique ability.

For now, he's still an immature challenger.

He's enjoying the thrill of recklessly playing strong opponents.

However,

someday he will achieve the level of the Generation of Miracles

and grow apart from his team.

When he does, do you really believe Kagami won't be a different person?

You bastard, why'd you disappear like that?

Hey.

Were you listening?

I sure as hell was.

What the hell are you kidnapping Kuroko for?

What? Who cares if I talk with him a little bit?

We can't go home.

The coach won't shut up about responsibility or something.

We've been looking for him.

Damn! Looks like there's some trash over here.

Come on, you've had enough. Give someone else a turn.

We just got here. Wait your turn.

-Our turn? -Now, now.

Why don't we settle this with some basketball?

Who are those thugs?

All right!

Wow, not bad. We might lose.

-This is it! -And block!

Huh? Hey, what was that?

-It's three-on-three! -What?

I said we'd play basketball.

I didn't say anything about three-on-three.

What are you saying? That's not fair!

Huh? What'd you say? Sorry, I didn't hear you.

There's nothing fair about this.

Who the hell are you? Where'd you come from?

This isn't basketball.

Besides, violence is bad.

What the hell is he doing?

Kurokocchi?

What do you think you're doing?

There are still guys like this these days.

Fine, then.

Let's settle this with basketball.

Mind if we play, too?

Why'd you get involved, bastard?

He-- He's huge! What the hell?

Five-on-three's fine. Bring it on.

What'd you say?

They destroyed them.

Amazing!

What were you thinking?

Did you think you could win if it turned into a fight?

No, they would have beaten me up.

You bastard!

Look at these guns.

You don't have any!

Kurokocchi, you can be amazing sometimes.

I thought those guys were terrible.

I just wanted to tell them.

You should've considered the consequences first!

I forgot to.

Don't give me that crap!

I'm sorry.

You said yourself they could beat you up!

Sorry.

I should get going.

I finally got to play with you, Kurokocchi.

And don't think I've forgotten about my revenge, Kagamicchi!

"Kagamicchi"!

Kise adds "cchi" to the names of those he acknowledges.

-That's great for you. -I don't want that!

Don't lose in the preliminaries!

Kagami, I'd like to ask you something.

Did you hear my conversation with Kise?

About us parting ways?

We don't even get along in the first place.

You're the one who said I couldn't do it alone.

If you're right, there's nothing to worry about.

Besides...

You'll always stand by the light.

That's your basketball.

Kagami, you say some deep things sometimes.

Shut up!

There you are! Sheesh!

Let's go home.

Kagami.

Save-- Save me...

Mitobe, what's got you down?

What? You're worried about the first-years?

It'll be fine. We're just buying some bread.

Right, Tsucchi?

Um, yeah. How was that a conversation?
