[Kuroko's Basketball] The Undefiled Time

Some flowers shine so brilliantly when they bloom that their light outshines even the sun. Someone once recorded a flower opening: its pale petals gradually deepened in color, unfurling layer by layer in breathtaking beauty. Kuroko Tetsuya clicked the player and played the video in reverse. The radiant flower, fully open at its most brilliant, slowly folded its petals closed, its color fading almost back to the beginning. He couldn't stop the flower from blooming, nor could he selfishly make it halt its unfolding. - At least, where the flower has yet to bloom, he can still remember.
