Shohoku's “speedster” and point guard, Ryota Miyagi, always plays with brains and lightning speed, running circles around his opponents while feigning composure. In his second year of high school, Ryota plays with the Shohoku High School basketball team along with Sakuragi, Rukawa, Akagi, and Mitsui as they take the stage at the Inter-High School National Championship. And now, they are on the brink of challenging the reigning champions, Sannoh Kogyo High School.

Animated cinema with a serious conversation — about loss, choice, growing up. Animation here isn't simplification, it's a way to speak of difficult things more gently.
Not the studio's best work, but still above genre average. Characters are memorable, the world is developed. Several genuinely strong scenes.
Works for both children and adults — but adults will take more from it. Family viewing is the ideal format.
Director: Takehiko Inoue
