>>281855310nothin' quite like shooting hoopz
>>281855076Oda's mentor
>>281855076Slam Dunk? Nah
The 90s weren't that bad
>>281855076The big three it will always be One Piece, Naruto and Dragon Ball, fuck Bleach
>>281857547Considering how much it sold and how hard jump's sales fell when it ended, yes.
>>281857547Slam Dunk is huge in Japan. It had monster sales, outgrossed every dragon ball and OP flick and is ranked as the most acclaimed WSJ series or close it on lists
Slam Duck
>>281859028>JapanYou have to be a whole lot more popular across the world to qualify as the "Big 3". Japan doesn't matter that much.
