Top 5 Kuroko No Basuke Spin Off/Sequel Ideas

(In no particular order)

1. Focus On Rakuzan / Akashi No Basuke

HONESTLY Rakuzan was probably the most fleshed out team character-wise besides Seirin and technically Teiko. We got to know all 5 starters of Rakuzan relatively through basically 1 season in the anime and they all have strong characterization. They’re all really strong personalities with entertaining character dynamics just as engaging as the Seirin Starters (imo). 

With the “Real Akashi” taking over at the end of the original series, following the team in their second year with this “new” Akashi could be explored. Not only that there could be exploration into the effect of them losing the finals and how it impacts the team. 

Lastly since Mayuzumi and Higuchi both graduated, this allows the introduction of a new character to fill the fifth starter role or even introduce the audience to the rest of the team. Akashi won the last damn character poll so this would undoubtedly be well received. 

2.  Japanese National Team

Picking up from the PURE POTENTIAL of Vorpal Swords and incorporating a Time Skip, this Sequel would focus on the Generation of Miracles + Kagami YEARS later all becoming members of Japan’s National Basketball Team much in the same vein of all the coaches from the original series. 

Without a doubt those 7 were some of the most liked characters from the show and to have them reunite on a team for more than a rushed as fuck streeball game could explore such INTERESTING team dynamics, especially YEARS after they all competed in high school tourneys. 

Like in the series/movie have the “substitutes” either be Takao, Wakamatsu and Hyuuga again or switch it up with other characters (personally i think Takao NEEDS to be around regardless of the lineup) so its not a GoM OD lovefest. This also allows WORLDWIDE traveling for the group to have them compete against other teams from other countries across the WORLDDDDDD - IMAGINE THE DIVERSITYYYY. And of course America’s team has to be the villain because they always are. 

3. Seirin High Round 2 

I would suggest skipping ahead to Kuroko and Kagami’s third year with those two in more leadership roles on the team. It’d be sad to see the second years have graduated but likely they would cameo and Riko could probably still be the coach. 

To switch it up further I think the introduction of first and second year players as the main characters filling Kuroko and Kagami’s original roles could bring a fresh perspective to the legacy of the team down the line. Kind of an obvious and bland choice if it just picked up after the end of the series or even after Extra Game so a sizeable time skip would do the narrative well. There were even a couple of characters introduced at the end of the manga who could easily be the new main characters. Plus a seasoned version of all the different teams is a fresh take on a formula that already worked. Im thinking this would be the same vibe as Season 3 of Digimon Fusions - all the main characters are around, theyre just not the focus. 

4. Team Strky

Im unsure of the potential popularity of this project because outside Imayoshi and Kasamatsu-SENPAIIIIII and maybe Miyaji? the rest of the team wasnt in depth explored in the original series (Okamura was a gag character and Higuchi doesnt even really exist honestly). The focus COULD be streetball focused tho since that was their purpose for forming. Straying away from the organized side of things would put the whole series in a new view with familiar characters tackling a new-ish venture. 

It could take place after their defeat by Jabberwock and could be a learning experience tournament of redemption for them. They clearly arent very streetball savvy and this could be their arc to LEVEL UP - JUST THINK OF THE HAIKYUU LEVELS OF RELATABILITY!!!!

5. Ogiwara & Nijimura

OKAY THIS ONE IS REALLY OUT THERE BUT HEAR ME OUT. Setting: the year after the end of the original series aka “Second Year” for the former first years. Ogiwara now wants to get back into basketball so he joins his school’s team as a first year. THEN you have Nishijima returning to Japan (because his dad is better n shit or whuteva) and the basketball scene where he CONVENIENTLY attends the SAME school at Ogiwara. 

Nijimura could be not into playing basketball that much anymore despite his notoriety as a former Teiko starter. Ogiwara will hear of him, try SO HARD to convince him to join even playing him 1 on 1 until BOOM Nijimura’s in. Not only are these two strong willed characters, that set up of Uke-wara x Seme-mura IS FUJOSHI BAIT MADE IN HEAVEN. 

Then their P.O.S.-team-youve-conveniently-never-heard-of goes for REDEMPTION against every damn team in the nation. ORRRRR to make shit even more interesting and add EVEN MORE FUJOSHI BAIT put them on Fukuda Sogo - THAT’S RIGHT HAIZAKI’S TEAM and task the narrative with the REDEMPTION OF HAIZAKI. Three compelling main characters, a similar but vastly different dynamic from the first series and RULE 34 FANFIC INSPIRATION FOR YEARS TO COME.
