“The first Slam Dunk“It premiered last December in Japan, and since then it’s become the anime premiere I most want to see confirmed for Spain. But there’s nothing at all, just a sepulchral silence that becomes more and more harmful, especially when in the USA they are already pressing the accelerator to organize everything regarding the premiere. following a series of confirmations for the release in the United States and Canada that now, finally, there is an official synopsis of the film.
Did you have any doubts about The First Slam Dunk and its plot? Well, that’s what the movie is about.
So I’ll leave you with the exact description of the movie provided by GKIDS, the company that will distribute the film in the USA and Canada during the summer of 2023 (via ANN):
- The sprinter and the leader Shohoku, Ryota Miyagihe always plays using his brains and lightning speed, circling his opponents while pretending not to lose his temper. Born in Okinawa, Ryota had a brother who was 3 years older than him.. He quickly followed in the footsteps of his brother, who was a famous local player from an early age, becoming a a basketball addict.
In his second year of high school, Ryota plays Shokoku, alongside Sakuragi, Rukawa, Akagi, and Mitsui as they face the challenge of the national championship. Now, they are not far from facing the current champions: the Sannoh.
- This description goes in the direction of everything that has gradually leaked from Japan, speaking above all of a feature film very centered on the figure of Ryota.
- On the other hand, mention is also made of the Sannoh. However, it is difficult to distinguish from this description if the game will be played in its entirety or if, on the contrary, we will see it interrupted for lack of another hypothetical film. What is clear is that the events we see are completely canonical, something that in fact was already known but has just been consolidated with this.
I’m glad that in the United States and Canada they already have confirmation of the premiere of “The First Slam Dunk” and at the same time they don’t have it, because it makes me want to. Anyway, the only thing to do is to continue to be patient, and that’s With a little luck, the first steps of the arrival of the film on the American continent will eventually be followed by those of Europe..
