Slam Dunk: The First Slam Dunk (2022) — Review
As a long-time Slam Dunk fan, this movie is a total nostalgia trip—packed with energy, emotion, and love for the original series. The animation (even with CGI) is impressive, and the new official English dub brings fresh life to the characters. It’s awesome to see so many references to classic moments from the TV show and to finally get some real depth on Ryota Miyagi (#7).
Just a heads up: the film focuses on one intense tournament match, not the whole Inter-High journey, so you’ll probably finish wanting more. But that’s part of its charm—it leaves you fired up and rooting for Shohoku all over again.
Highly recommended for fans of sports anime and anyone who grew up watching Slam Dunk. Whether you’re new or returning, this is a must-watch that captures what made the series special—no spoilers, just pure basketball hype and nostalgia!💯👍😊
