Tadatoshi Fujimaki’s creation, Kuroko’s Basketball, began in 2008 in Weekly Shonen Jump and it’s been quite a ride watching it get adapted into two full seasons with a third set for next year. And then all the drama in the real world with the threats at various events that lead to a lot of panic and fear for many. No word has come down from the weekly magazine that the 30th volume of the series, the 30th, will be the final volume of the series. The announcement was made in the magazine after the final chapter while noting that a “miracle” is set to occur in the December issue of Jump Next magazine, where Fujimaki’s next work is set to debut.
Crunchyroll has simulcast the first two seasons as they’ve aired (see our coverage here) but the show has not been picked up for a home video release.
Series premise: 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.
