The home video release for Kuroko’s Basketball just got a lot more interesting as it’s been revealed that the sixth volume of the series, which contains episodes 40 and 41, will contain an original episode when it lands on June 20th, 2014. The episode is designed around a specific chapter in the manga by Tadatoshi Fujimaki by working on chapter 124. This chapter was originally published in the fourteenth volume of the manga, which came out in October 2011 and is entitled “You’ll Catch a Chill”. It’s being listed as episode 41.5 as it delves into how Kuroko and Aomine first met as a part of the Generation of Miracles.
Series concept: An up-and-coming power player, Taiga Kagami, is just back from America. When he comes to Seirin High School, he meets the super-ordinary boy, Tetsuya Kuroko. Kagami is shocked to find that Kuroko isn’t good at basketball, in fact, he’s bad! And he’s so plain that he’s impossible to see. But Kuroko’s plainness lets him pass the ball around without the other team noticing him, and he’s none other than the sixth member of the Miracle Generation.
