Final impressions of Kuroko's Basketball S3 from Productions I.G. It is streaming on Crunchyroll and Daisuki.

First impressions are great but what about our thoughts after we've watched an entire series week to week? We figured our listeners might want to hear our final impressions as well so we've created the Case Closed Review podcast. Just like the S.W.A.T. Reviews, these will be mini-podcasts and completely off the cuff.
