[Review] Slam Dunk: The New Edition

Do you like... basketball? Yes, I do. And this time, I'm not lying. It's the basketball masterpiece, Slam Dunk. There are so many famous lines like "My left hand is just for show," "Sensei, I want to play basketball," and "Do you like basketball?" The character names are also incredibly well-localized, showing just how good a translator can be. How can you not love Kang Baek-ho and Seo Tae-woong? The story follows Kang Baek-ho, who had no interest in basketball, as he joins the Buksan High School basketball team as a rookie and grows, after receiving a confession attack from Chae So-yeon asking, "Do you like basketball?" In 2022, a new anime called "The First Slam Dunk" was released, which covers the long-awaited showdown with the final boss, Sannoh Kogyo, that many fans of the original series regretted not seeing. For reference, the protagonist of "The First Slam Dunk" is Song Tae-seop. It also delves into the backstories of the other four members of the Buksan High team, so fans of Chae Chi-su, Jung Dae-man, Song Tae-seop, Kang Baek-ho, and Seo Tae-woong can fully enjoy it. Personally, I really love Jung Dae-man.
