There is no doubt that the animation " Slam Dunk " is of great significance to many post-80s and 90s in China. Thirty years have passed. Those young men who were guarding the TV day and night have become uncles who are dying, but they can never let go of the topic of youth. There is no national competition on the
TV version, and fortunately there are still comics to compensate, but the hasty ending of defeating the Queen of Mountain in Xiangbei has made many fans beat their chests and stamp their feet, which has also become a great regret in the hearts of many viewers. However, the time to fill this regret is coming. The movie version of "Slam Dunk" that Inoue Yuhiko personally admitted will be released at the end of 2022. Although the confidentiality of the plot has been done quite well, for the audience, the call for the national competition is undoubtedly the highest. Faced with such market response, I am afraid that no matter how stubborn the old monster Inoue is, as one of the screenwriters, he will not give up this opportunity to harvest his feelings.
Speaking of the national competition, after Xiangbei defeated Shan Wang, he was overdrawn because he fought too hard, and was defeated by Aihe Academy in the subsequent competition and stopped in the top 16. This is already a well-known result. But so many years have passed, and in the comic "Slam Dunk", there is another ultimate puzzle surrounding the hearts of fans that has not been revealed: which team won the national championship!
No matter whether the movie version can solve the mystery, we might as well analyze which teams are most likely to win the championship. The two core clues are this panoramic group battle picture in the original comic and the fact that Hainan is the runner-up in the national competition.
Since the national competition system is a single knockout match, even if you reach the semifinals, you will not play the round-robin match like the county qualifiers. Hainan is one of the seed teams in the first half. Since Hainan is the runner-up, there is no doubt that the championship will definitely be born in the teams in the second half.
According to the match chart, there are 2 seed teams in the lower half of the area, Mingpeng Industry and Hakata Shang University. Among them, Mingpeng Industry is not a traditional strong team, but defeated Aihe Academy in the county qualifiers and snatched the seed quota. In addition to these two teams, there are two strong teams, Darong Academy and Changcheng High School mentioned in the comics.
, and Changcheng High School was beaten by Mingpeng Industry in the second round of the national competition, so there are only three teams left with the most powerful teams to win the championship, Mingpeng Industry, Darong College, and Bodo Shang University. Let’s analyze the three teams’ chances of winning the championship based on the clues provided by the comics.
Mysterious Seed Team Hakata Shangda, the whole version of the comic has no face, and there is no match that can prove its strength. The only clue is being divided into an extremely comfortable half-zone and the fact that the traditional strong team successfully advanced to the second round. And that story of nothing: Inoue personally admitted that the team winning the championship is a team that has never been mentioned in the comics! The authenticity also needs to be verified, so this sentence cannot be established at all. It can only be based on its identity as a seed ball and has a 20% chance of winning the championship.
followed by Osaka Prefecture, which beats to in the plot year, and the core is Jun Toyota High School, which focuses on 4th position. Jun Toyu is very mobile and has outstanding shooting skills among inside players. He is an excellent leader. The overall team is a team that is good at defense. This can be proved by only allowing Toyota, who is good at bombing, to score 55 points in the prefecture qualifiers.
But Jun Shiya is only 190 cm tall in the comics. Apart from him, the team has almost no second scoring point, and they beat Toyota who lacks Nan Lie . In the second half of the semi-finals, I am afraid that there will be more misfortunes and the probability of winning the championship is 30%!
comics After Mingto Industry defeated Aihe Academy, the author wrote, "About a month later, Mori Shigekuro's name caused a sensation in Japan"! A month later, it will definitely be during the national competition, but be aware that the name of Mori Shigekuen himself is mentioned here, not the name of the team Natomoto Industrial.Therefore, Mingpeng is not 100% sure of winning the championship. It’s just that Mori Shigekuro, who uses the Big Shark as the template, is really too buggy. Combined with the author’s era, the young shark, who is in Magic Team, has reached the finals all the way, but is KOed by Dameng. All Mingpengs have a high chance of winning the championship, but it is only 50%!
"Slam Dunk" author Yuhiko Inoue once said: Youth is imperfect. Regardless of whether this movie version can make up for the regrets of our youth, as long as we think of the summer of that year, the sunshine, the court, the sweat of happiness, the girl we secretly love, can't help but smile, that is the time we deserve to remember. And the spirit expressed in this anime will accompany our lives until the end of the world!
