Slam Dunk returns to Spain in a deluxe format. This edition, called kanzenban in Japan, compiles the entire story in larger volumes, with a large number of color pages and extra details never before seen in the traditional edition. The story is about Hanamichi Sakuragi, a gang member who becomes a great basketball player, just to try to flirt with a girl from his high school. A complex story with romantic, comedic and self-improvement ingredients, in which the protagonist will gradually discover that he feels a certain passion for this sport, beyond the reasons why he initially joined the team.
