pnumoman posted:I love how Ippo doesn't have any lingering damage from the head shot, but he gets a raging fever from walking home in the rain. And the response from everyone is that the fever is much more concerning than the loving vicious head shot. I was kinda hoping that its not actually a fever like they think, but that he is Punch drunk and his career is now over...

Since Morikawa is now openly calling his own protagonist a waste of time, does this means Ippo won't be the focus anymore? That would be fantastic. A shift of narrative over to Sendo, Vorg, Takamura, or Sawamura feel overdue, and welcomed.

He already did a side story for him, so the back story is already well established!

New Chapter. Oh wow, foreshadowing at Ippo moving onto the world? Nope. This just implies like a dozen more matches before he properly levels up.

I swear to god, I better loving see lasers coming out of Ippo's eyes and missiles coming out of his fists when the "IsweartoGodthiswillmakeupforeverything" new Dempsey Roll comes out. Not even sure why I'm spoilering that.

The fact that Ippo needs to make the dempsey roll better isn't exactly a spoiler. He'll probably add a vertical element to it (motionless uppercuts). Dunno what he'd add to it while coming down since rabbit punches are illegal but whatever.

Probably some kind of retarded straight that dislocates his shoulder until Kamogawa plants more seed in him to build it up.

I can't help but question the coach's tactics of "plant seeds that won't sprout until he's 40."

*no, there isn't a new chapter. Sorry if you got excited about being disappointed again.* You know how we joked about the formula for sports manga a while back in this thread and someone actually came up with a golf manga? King Golf. Alright, which one of you is secretly a manga artist?

Yep, reading that. It's about as obscure as the moeblob curling manga.

Are any of them any good? For some reason I think they'd make oddly compelling reading. Lots of room for nerdery and minutiae, which is how I like my sporting mangas. I find the talking about technique and such absorbing, even though it's usually utter bullshit.

And now, just to change it up, a few over-the-shoulder head-tilts with the mouth gaping wide open. Isn't it wonderful how that can be used to convey every emotion in any scene in this manga?

No, the next arc will be Takamura facing felony assault charges.

The next arc will be character x training for their next match. It probably won't be Takamura, because he has forgotten how to box.

Nobody mentioned a fight sports manga that's better than Ippo since this last chapter, so here's some links. Ganbare Genki(boxing) Buyuden(boxing) Hanza Sky(karate) Bushidou Sixteen(kendo) Overbleed(streetfighting) There's also Holyland and Teppu, which have their own threads.
