The First Slam Dunk

In the wake of the heartbreaking loss of his older brother, Miyagi Ryota, a teenager from Okinawa, Japan, is left grappling with deep-seated questions of self-worth and life's purpose. Basketball, a sport that was once a shared passion between Ryota and his brother, becomes his refuge, helping him navigate through his grief. Ryota and his Shohoku High School teammates, often underestimated and overlooked, don't let their underdog status deter them. Instead, they display a remarkable courage, taking on the challenge of competing against a far more skilled team. Their quest isn't just about winning the game, it's about earning recognition and achieving a sense of glory that goes beyond the basketball court. As they celebrate their first triumphant slam dunk, a question looms large: What's next for them in this uphill journey? (Sugoi)
