Slam Dunk

Slam Dunk main image

TV (101 eps) | 1993 - 1996 | Toei Animation

This is the fantastically popular sports anime that single-handedly restarted the genre! It follows tensai basketman Sakuragi Hanamichi as he takes up basketball to impress a cute girl, and never walks free again. He may not be as good as he thinks he is, but he might just be good enough to help Shohoku to the national level… but then again, the competition has talent of their own, and an equal need to win. Don’t expect Sakuragi, or indeed Shohoku, to win them all.
