I always knew it was going to end that way. :colbert:

Also I had completely forgotten about Takamura's match. Who's he fighting?


Takamura is fighting Ronald Duck next!

New chapter #861 I was so excited for Vorg but for him to be used to show how good Mowgli is. :smith:

It's more frustration than hate. Ippo needs to move the gently caress on, kiss kumi, relinquish the japanese title, and fight for world rank.

i think i would have kizzed if the fight ended that way in one round and takamura ran to the ring yelling about how ippo stole his style or something




:negative: oh god this manga is so bad

Wow going back and starting Ippo all over again I can't get over how good this series was. I still get the same feeling I did when I first read Ippo go train harder than ever before you son of a bitch. Early Ippo really helps my training haha.

Please die Mori. I'm going to pretend this managa ended after Takamura beat Hawk.

gently caress you, Morikawa.

I don't know why the gently caress I started reading this piece of poo poo manga again. I'm a loving sucker.

I wanted to throw up when I read this chapter. Mori you're trash.

Wish that someone would pick up Boys on the Run so I could have some form of boxing manga that wasn't terrible :(

Man why did you do this to me. It got me all pumping and ready to go like Ippo used to and there was only one boxing scene!

Literally any other boxing manga more engaging at this point. 10,000% more interested in what would happen next in RRR than Ippo. Man, I can not even remember the last meaningful thing that happened in this manga. Must have been *years* ago.

Is RRR father than chapter 7 anywhere? Because that and Boys on the Run seem really good. It's sad I'm ready to drop Ippo for either of those if they get on any sort of reliable release schedule.

Nah, 7 was just released the 23rd. They've been pretty solid putting them out every 6/7 days since they started doing it though. So....30th for the next one.

Ah I didn't look at the dates they were released even. Good to have something to look forward to besides One Piece.

Man, I think I made the mistake of getting into Ippo way too late in the game. I started reading from the beginning when Morikawa was writing the Woli fight, so I had around 900 chapters of boxing goodness to read. I didn't really notice the absurd buildups, since I didn't have to wait for the next chapter. As much as I still love the series, I can't really imagine reading this thing for 20 years, waiting patiently for each new chapter, only to have the Japanese champ and main character get nervous because some nobody is acting tough. It's still one of my favorites, but drat is it frustrating.

Well if you were reading in English I don't think we were caught up to current release up until 2007 or 2006? So you had a comfortable buffer generally because the groups doing it would release a few chapters at a time.

Hey Ippo rear end in a top hat you've been boxing for a billion years you do know that you can throw a punch while still defending with your other arm right? gently caress you. gently caress Mori too.

Not true. I want to break Mori's fingers nurse him back to health and re-break them. I have no love for him.

Honestly though the first volume up to the spar with Miyata still gets me incredibly pumped for boxing.

I think our husband just brought home some flowers and chocolates. He'll be different from now on right? It'll be like this always forever and ever?

He even made a joke about how long and drawn out the fight was. Like he's not going to do it again or something.

Hey, you know the latest chapter of Ippo that some people are claiming is legitimately good? Still a piece of poo poo compared to RRR- http://www.mangafox.com/manga/rrr/v02/c011/1.html. Saying a chapter is good for HnI is damning it with faint praise.


RRR is so loving good. Is it currently running in Japan? Or is it done already?

So RRR's next chapter should be really cool guys.

I think the last time they referenced real boxers was when they introduced Mashiba with the flicker jab. I may be forgetting some other point.

Anyone remember the one with a girl teaching an upper class smart kid how to box. I never finished that one.
