None of us will deny that we all got jealous when we saw Kuroko meet Momoi. We are sure most of us feel like what are we even doing with our lives. Kuroko is an introvert, yet he got the girl without even trying hard. And most of us otakus are also introverts, yet here we are, getting jealous of a fictional character. One of the first questions that must have come to our minds, just like Kuroko’s teammates, is, “How did Kuroko manage to do that?”. What must have been the story behind it, that Momoi is head over heels for Kuroko? How did Kuroko meet Momoi? Kuroko is living our dreams out there, and he does not even realize that we exist. Wait, Kuroko is not even real, yet he’s living our dreams. What could be sadder than this? Yet, we are happy for you, Kuroko.
But, still, we can’t get over it without knowing how did Kuroko meet Momoi. More importantly, when did Kuroko meet Momoi? There are a whole lot of questions that we need answers to. So, without any further delay, let’s find out when and how did Kuroko meet Momoi.
Who Is Tetsuya Kuroko?
The Phantom Sixth Player of the Generation of Miracles and the main protagonist of Kuroko no Basuke/Kuroko’s Basketball is Tetsuya Kuroko. Well, the name of the anime already gave away a hint, didn’t it? Generation of Miracles was the basketball team of Teiko Junior High, where Kuroko was the sixth player. He was not like the regular players. Every player aims to score, whereas Kuroko aimed to help them score. His specialty in basketball was misdirection and passes. When he was in Teiko Junior High, he played as the Aomine Daiki’s Shadow. But, soon, he realized that team was filled with players who played for themselves instead of for the team. Even though Kuroko is not good at talking, he believed in team play, which was not in Generation of Miracles.

Even though Generation of Miracles always won, the wins never felt like winning to Kuroko. He found what was lacking in Teiko Junior High in Seirin High. And now, he plays as Taiga Kagami’s shadow. People think their presence is what matters. But, during games, no one can sense Kuroko’s presence. And that’s what helps the team to win.
Who Is Satsuki Momoi?
Satsuki Momoi used to be the basketball team manager of the Generation of Miracles at Teiko Junior High. And, now she is the manager of Touou Academy. But, we look at her as Kuroko’s girlfriend first. Her nature is the complete opposite of Kuroko’s, yet she vibes the most with him. Even though it’s a sports anime, and they didn’t get more screen time together, it feels like they are made for each other. Kuroko silently listens when Momoi talks. And Momoi talks to fill Kuroko’s silence.

Momoi may be a very frank person, but you’ll see her sly and observing nature when it comes to her job as the basketball manager. She’s good at gathering information for her team. She is like a player who does not play on the court. She plays from outside the court by getting all the information her team needs.
How Did Kuroko Meet Momoi And Make Her Fall For Him?
During the time of Teiko Junior High, when Kuroko was the Phantom Sixth Player of the Generation of Miracles and Momoi was the manager of the same team, they met. Kuroko and Momoi didn’t know each other from the beginning. Momoi was the childhood friend of Aomine Daiki, and recently Kuroko became friends with Aomine as they were on the same team. But, one evening, when Momoi felt like having an ice cream after watching some students eating it, Kuroko came to her and handed her the ice cream stick of the ice cream he had just finished. At first, Momoi was infuriated as she just got trash handed to her. But, when she turned the stick around, it was written “Winner”. And she instantly fell in love with Kuroko. She found that trash was more important than any treasure in the world.
Ever since that day, Momoi has considered herself Kuroko’s girlfriend. And that’s how Kuroko met Momoi.

Naruto Shippuden, one of the big three, one of the best anime ever, has given us some epic moments. Created by Masashi Kishimoto, the story follows a young knuckleheaded ninja named Naruto. Naruto has been an orphan since birth and harbors the Nine-Tails Fox inside him. Overall Naruto has 720 episodes. Part one of the series, simply named Naruto, has 220 episodes. Part two, often known as Naruto Shippuden, has 500 episodes. 720 episodes might seem a stretch to watch to some. Although the show is extremely popular, it also has several filler episodes. While some of these fillers can be boring, others are worth watching, as here we shall look into a filler, Tsunade’s Dream.
Some filler episodes give the backstory of a character, as seen in Kakashi’s chronicles. Kakashi’s Chronicles gave us an insight into the earlier days of Kakashi. Another filler arc gives us the story of fan-favorite Itachi Uchiha. One of the show’s primary villains, Madara Uchiha, succeeds in casting the Infinite Tsukuyomi. The Infinite Tsukuyomi, according to Madara, will unveil world peace. During the Tsukuyomi, we saw the dreams of every major character. One such interesting dream was of the then Hokage, Tsunade.
How Many Episodes Did Tsunade’s Dream Cover?
The Infinite Tsukuyomi started in Episode 426 and went on till the end of the war. In Episode 474, the infinite Tsukuyomi is ended after Naruto and Sasuke are able to seal Kaguya away. Meanwhile, Tsunade’s Tsukuyomi dream spans from episodes 432 to 450.
What Happens In Tsunade’s Dream?
Team Kakashi, Team Kurenai, Team Guy, and Team Asuma are sent on a mission. They have to look into recent abductions of academy graduates. Akatsuki is revealed to be behind this. After rescuing the students, almost everyone disperses and goes their way. Jiraiya goes to one of Orochimaru’s hideouts. Neji leaves Naruto and follows a masked man with byakugan. Neji leaves his friends with the masked man. On the other side, Sasuke and Sakura are attacked by Sasori. Naruto comes to the aid of Sasuke and Sakura, which causes Sasori to retreat. Later on, the masked man is revealed to be a reincarnated Hizashi Hyuga, Neji’s father.

Part Two Of Tsunade’s Dream
After returning to the village, Sasuke starts his training with Kakashi in order to learn Chidori. Meanwhile, Naruto goes to Minato and Jiraiya to better his Rasengan. Then we see Sasuke asking for a transfer from team 7 to Konoha military police (because of his jealousy due to Naruto getting stronger). Naruto leaves with Jiraiya to train, and Sakura starts training under Tsunade. After the time skip, Sasuke has become as powerful as Shisui and Itachi. Fugaku appoints Sasuke as a lieutenant in the police force. Naruto soon comes back to the village and fights with Sasuke, ending abruptly.
Naruto and Sasuke fighting
Sasuke becomes angry with Naruto and threatens Kushina. This results in Fugaku permanently expelling Sasuke from the police force. Sasuke leaves the village for Orochimaru. Upon hearing this, Minato orders a search mission for Sasuke. Naruto and Shikamaru leave the village secretly and are later joined by Team Guy. Sasuke comes afront with Orochimaru and demands more power. Orochimaru gives the cursed seal to Sasuke. Naruto and Sasuke enrage in an epic battle. Itachi appears and supposedly dies after taking one of Sasuke’s attacks. The battle ends with Naruto on the losing side. Remembering Itachi, Sasuke awakens the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Pain Assault And The War
Pain arrives in Konoha seeking revenge for Yahiko’s death, which according to him, was caused by Minato ordering the destruction of a village. He captures the whole village in his Chibaku Tensei. Naruto arrives, and the battle between him and Pain begins. The battle is almost similar to the one we see in Pain’s assault arc. Kushina arrives and helps Naruto when he is cornered down by Pain. Naruto goes to Nagato’s hideout and, using his talk no Jutsu saves the village. On the other hand, Sasuke kills Orochimaru and is confronted by Sasori, who says Akatsuki will help him exact revenge on Konoha.
Naruto and all his comrades reach the Akatsuki hideout. Sasuke, realizing Sasori’s ill intentions decide to aid Naruto and Sakura to stop him. Team 7 uses their summoning Jutsu. Jiraiya arrives with Nagato and Konan to help Naruto. Meanwhile, Itachi also arrives and saves Sasuke. At this time, we all saw something we always wanted. Itachi and Sasuke together use their Susanoo to fight the puppets.
The Ending Of Tsunade’s Tsukuyomi Dream
Just as in the original ending, Naruto and Sasuke duke it out in an epic battle. They both trade serious blows at each other. After using an arsenal of attacks and getting exhausted, the fight comes to an end. Sasuke admits defeat and comes back to the village.
Tsunade wakes up and sees Dan wearing the Hokage hat. They are going to the Five Kage summit. Going down the hall Tsunade also sees Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Nawaki. But, later, it is revealed that Tsunade is still asleep under the Tsukuyomi and was dreaming.

Conclusion
All in all, Lady Tsunade’s dream was probably the best Tsukuyomi dream we have seen. Filler episodes are usually not worth watching, but if you have missed this filler arc, then you are truly missing out on something really, really great. It shows a life for Naruto that all of us fans wanted all along. Growing up with both his father and mother and his sensei Jiraiya. This is not something only we wanted, but even Naruto wanted for himself. But on the other hand, fans would be glad to see this as a dream and not a reality because Naruto would not have been what we see it as today.
Tell us your thoughts regarding this dream and any other which you liked.
Naruto centers on Naruto Uzumaki, an orphaned boy shunned by his village because of the Nine-Tailed Fox sealed inside him. Unaware of why he’s rejected, he yearns for acceptance and sets his sights on becoming Hokage, the village’s strongest ninja, in hopes of earning recognition and respect.
