The main character of this manga is Hanamichi Sakuragi who started out as an outcast who fights as a method to gain power and publicity, becoming the leader of a gang. Hanamichi, being very unpopular with girls, has been rejected by them fifty times. Yet, he finds out that Haruko Akagi is the girl of his dreams. Haruko, who recognizes Hanamichi's athleticism, introduces Hanamichi to the Shohoku basketball team. Hanamichi was reluctant to join the team at first because he had no previous background in any sports and thought that basketball was a game for losers (actually because the fiftieth girl rejected him for a basketball player). Sakuragi, despite his immaturity and hot temper, proves to be a natural athlete with potential and joins the team in order to impress Haruko to prove that he is worthy of her. Kaede Rukawa also Sakuragi's bitter rival (both on the basketball court and love), the star rookie and a "girl magnet", joins the team at the same time. Hisashi Mitsui an ex-junior high school MVP, and Ryota Miyagi, a short but fast player, both also rejoin the team and together these four struggle to complete team captain Takenori Akagi's , who is Haruko's brother) dream of making Shohoku the national champion. Together, these misfits gain publicity and the once little known Shohoku basketball team becomes an all-star contender in Japan.
Slam dunk is quite an old anime. I first watched it sometime in 2003, when it was aired on NTV7 (audio japanese, subtitle english) and i have fallen in love with it ever since. Anyway, it was a very entertaining anime to watch . Enough to say that it was one of the funniest anime on the planet.I really love Hanamichi Sakuragi andI fall in love with him because of his own character.He is so funny..I love you Hanamichi Sakuragi..hehe
