Atsushi Murasakibara

Atsushi Murasakibara is the center of the Generation of Miracles in Kuroko's Basketball. After middle school, he plays for Yosen High and relies on overwhelming size, reach, and defensive instinct.

Murasakibara as Yosen's defensive center

Lazy, childish, and dismissive of effort, Murasakibara claims that talent decides basketball outcomes. His anger appears when others challenge that belief, revealing how seriously he actually takes competition.

Natural talent, effort, and hidden passion

He dominates the paint with blocks, rebounds, and powerful dunks, and can enter the Zone under extreme pressure. His relationship with Tatsuya Himuro and matches against Taiga Kagami force him to admit that he enjoys basketball and is affected by losing.
