Honestly a bit shocked by how much I enjoyed this one - I'm working through the 2024 Manga Genre/Demographic Challenge here and didn't think I was going to be very interested in sports manga so I kind of picked this one just because the library had it but it's so funny and the art style is immensely enjoyable!

Didn't connect with the humour or characters, and hardly any basketball in the first quarter.

My friend recommended this to me because I'm a huge fan of Eyeshield 21 and so I finally got my hands on to this first volume of Slam Dunk. And I fell in love. The story and characters are funny and interesting. I just hope that there will be some character development.
