『Do everything in your power and leave the rest to fate』
The Seirin High School Basketball Club, an emerging team led by the "Phantom Sixth Man" Tetsuya Kuroko and the returnee prodigy Taiga Kagami. Their opponents—their former teammates from the "Generation of Miracles": the absolute emperor Akashi, the scoring machine Aomine, the all-around copycat Kise, the sharpshooter Midorima, and the shield of the paint Murasakibara—now each play for their own respective teams. From the bonds and rifts of the Teiko era to the fated showdowns of the Winter Cup, these youths use basketball to define the full meaning of light and shadow, talent and sweat, victory and growth.
"Although I am a shadow, the stronger the light, the darker the shadow becomes."
