I think they’re probably referring to New Challenger itself; since it is the 2nd series in the franchise, after all. Guessing they’re showing the trailer there for the first time for the US audiences?
But interesting that there’s gonna be a new Ippo movie too. Kamogawa backstory, anyone?
^ I’ll take the Kamogawa backstory. I’d like to see how Kamogawa got started with Taka and Aokimura–a little more story then all of them being back alley punks and Kamogawa whipping out the cane obtaining instant obedience…
I think I am done hating on the last Miyata fight. And the fact that the New Challenger has been doing well further encourages me to get back onto the Ippo train.
Does anyone want to see Fighting Spirit get to the end? I don’t know, but this series is closing in on 20 years and I kinda want to see Ippo finally win a world title bout and fuck Kumi.
