I knew there was no way Ippo was going to see Kumi first but it still made me laugh.

She's too old for him and will scoop up Takamura without Takamura realizing it until he's suddenly like a respectable human.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

Going to go ahead and assume you meant his big tiddy bone doctor instead.

Was kind of annoyed by that as well, since we already saw the gag at the end of the last chapter. The only way it isn't a waste of space is if it somehow helps Kumi realize what about boxing appeals to Ippo and why he keeps going back despite getting his poo poo rocked all the time.

Like I guess its a "waste" but the only difference without it is the chapter woulda been 11 pages instead of 13. Its not like its taking time from anything it's just a gag thats not really that interesting.

Also felt like it could be a setup for helping Kumi realize this but then in classic Morikawa fashion it amounts to nothing, noone learned gently caress all, and the status quo is safe and sound.

i think it's pretty meaningful for the story that the other three "could be" love interests seem to love ippo because he's a boxer while kumi is the exact opposite

It would be kind of funny to resolve this arc by the coach saying "Brat! Yer unretired! You've got a fight next month!" and Ippo being all "Y-yes sir!"

Yeah I'll keep up to date but Morikawa's version of relationship building outside of the tangential goo oozed from the goal-orientated training for fights has never managed to hold me.

Tons of content like this throughout the lifecycle of the manga, it gives it charm and can be pretty funny.

As long as there are no more filler title match fights for Takamura we’re fine
