Episode 1
Tono and his friends are very poor. They make a living by playing against other basketball players. Tono’s friends praise him, so he shows off some dribbling moves. As he was about to shoot, he sees a girl in a window watching him. He hits his head on the ring, falls, then angrily searches for the girl. A red-head girl with red eyes.
There’s also an appearance of another basketball player who resembles Tachibana Kippei (PoT). It’s the hair. >_>How many members does one basketball team make? (I’m obviously ignorant when it comes to basketball. Would you believe I became the captain ball back in hs w/o knowing anything? *rofl*) I’m worried there would be a lot of characters like in PoT. @__@ I like the opening song’s intro. The song itself is also likeable. Ska-ish. Ska-ish because there are horns playing, but it’s not really ska. Know what I mean? Gyuma’s interesting. He looks like Michael Jordan with horns. You would think they were making fun of Chicago Bulls. ^^v
Episode 2
Tono lost to a female coach. Just like most male kids, their pride gets easily hurt. So he decides not to go with her and play and learn serious basketball. After a few days, he found out from his friends that Gyuma used to be like them. But Gyuma is now a famous and very good basketball player in the Intergalatic League. He finally makes a decision and goes to visit the coach with the owner of the earth’s basketball team.
They should explain how they got to find out about the “Hideyoshi-sama.” He does have a good reputation on basketball, but that’s just around their neighborhood. The red-head girl, Cha-Che, wasn’t very much impressed with his skills. This episode is still so-so. I hope it will get enjoyable soon. If this turns out to be like Dear Boys with only the aliens, then I won’t continue watching. Dear Boys bored me.
Glad to have stumbled upon this page!!!XD Ili-link kita ha.
I think Takehiko Inoue was a big fan of Jordan and the Chicago Bulls.. kaya lagi na lang may reference sa kanila ang kanyang basketball anime.^^
