Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Die for Our Ship: not so much for the English fandom (as there isn't much of a fandom), but very much so in the Japanese fandom.
Kagami for the avid Aomine/Kuroko shippers ; Kuroko for the Kagami/ Himuro shippers
Not to mention Momoi and Aida who are often pushed to the side in the fandom by their tragic nature of not being guys.
Ho Yay: It's only natural to find mass amounts of fangirlish squealing in a series that's rampant with teenage guys running covered in sweat while passing balls to one another in a contact sport. Not to mention the overall lack of female presence and each character's obsession with basketball.
Kagami/Kuroko is the obvious one, as the metaphor between 'Light' and 'Shadow' (and Kuroko declaring that he exists to bring Kagami into the light and writing in huge letters on the school courtyard that he'll make Kagami the best basketball player in Japan) and their gradual trust and closeness that culminates in them re-exchanging vows to bring the Generation of Miracles to the ground after their huge defeat by Touou.
Remarked on by even the other players, as seen here:
Aww, so cute! Wait, they're not a couple...!
Aomine/Kuroko as well, continuing the Super Special ahem, Suspicious Relationship between a Light and a Shadow. Kuroko is shown, later on, to genuinely want Aomine to love playing basketball again and Aomine is seen often seeing Kuroko's face in other opponents.
Kuroko is the only teammate Aomine have First-Name Basis with, and continue doing so even after their separation.
Aomine specifically went to visit Kagami just to spat about his dim light and remark how sad it was for Tetsu, one would think he come all the way there just to say Kagami is not worthy of Kuroko.
Practically all of the Generation of Miracles seem to be sheer Ho Yaymagnets:
Kise was pretty determined to get Kuroko to play basketball on the same team as him, treating the whole thing as something akin to asking a girl out (!?). Of course, Kuroko refused on the grounds of having made a promise with Kagami to defeat the Generation of miracles. If that's not devotion, what is? Furthermore, Kise treated Kuroko's response as if he was turned down, or dumped by a girl.
Midorima is repeatedly referred to asTsundere by both current team members and the Generation of Miracles (i.e. Kise).
Not to mention the Teikou/New-School pairings (examples include: Kise/Kasamatsu, Midorima/Takao, Aomine/Sakurai, Murasakibara/Himuro) of which Kuroko/Kagami is an example.
Launcher of a Thousand Ships: Kuroko is paired in a frenzied manner with all the members of the Generation of Miracles — not to mention Kagami, Aida, and Tetsuya #2it's his namesake dog
