* While ''[[Ro-Kyu-Bu!]]'' almost certainly did not influence the rise of Japanese basketball the way ''[[Slam Dunk]]'' did in the 1990s or the way ''[[Kuroko no Basuke]]'' did in the 2010s (with Japan making it to the FIBA World Cup and Rui Hachimura becoming the first Japanese player to be selected in the first round of the NBA Draft in the same decade), it may not be a mere coincidence that the Japanese women's national basketball team managed to win the Asian championship '''''four times in a row''''' since the anime series aired in 2011. Their last two consecutive championships in 2017 and 2019 were thanks to their new generation of players and American coach Tom Hovasse as their own Subaru.
