Ending (From My Perspective) - They didn't shown any proper relationship between Kuroko and Momoi, although she told everyone that she is his girlfriend but she spends her most of the time with Aomine. I would have changed that and shown some relationship between Kuroko and Momoi. And lastly I would have shown that Kagami has a girlfriend in America. That could have been interesting.

Overall My Review - It's a great sports anime to watch. This is one of the best basketball anime. I loved that how they have shown their abilities as a power. All the matches were super interesting and engaging. Kuroko's believe in team play and team spirit was great, I loved it. If you love sports anime or basically say basketball anime then it is for you.
