The Hajime no Ippo (HnI) thread - Gazelle Punch Her in the Gut!

ippo should just knock him the fuck out, then morikawa should take a break from boring ass ippo and focus on other subcharacters like sendo, vorg, mashiba, or whoever else.

Vorg plz. Sendo had his one shot manga (and I’d like to read more personally) But I want to see more of Vorg (Either him when he started, or currently training under Dankichi)

I just read it too. this is getting mad gay.

I can see Woli having a small slip and lose his balance after his gay jumping shit and then Ippo just goes to town on his face. Ripping that damn smirk off his face.

Then focus on the next matches for Mashiba/Sendo.

vorg-sendo rematch would be hot fiya

We could just have that Ippo vs Miyata match already. It’s not like Ricardo still isn’t world champ, HnI won’t end. DBZ of shounen boxing.

It’s been 20 years, actually…

The honest problem really is that 16 pages is nothing and if you were to read this entire fight straight through nobody would really complain much, but week by week, this stuff is just frustrating. Honestly, I find every manga like that. From Gantz to this, I can’t read weeklies. Not enough content.

Anyone know where I can get some high-quality Ippo art?

I’m about to get a custom done and I need some good images.

At this rate it won’t end for another 20 years either. :rofl:

nah. morikawa just dedicated one year for miyata’s fight. sendo got his little beat down tour and a gaiden. mashiba had his comeback fight and vorg as well as sawamura have been shown again since eternity.

i think it was needed to see ippo fight again. (it’s been 2 years)

*anybody checked out steve in tekken 6? he got a peek-a-boo stance now too :razzy:

Did you check the link I posted to you in your rep message? :wonder: I’m not sure if it counts or not, but it is in a big size and it’s in good quality.

I have no problem seeing an Ippo fight now. I just don’t want to see a guy who has been boxing for so long get his face bashed in by a jungle boy with only 3 matches under his belt. I have some faith that Morikawa will eventually have Ippo figure this twat’s shit out, and then turn this match into the Karasawa fight where he schools Woli on what boxing really is.

Yeah, I did. I’ve seen that wall before, but I’m not really feelin’ it.

I really like the image on the left side though. I’ve been trying to find the source.

I’m getting worried about the continuation of the anime. We heard last season was happening somewhere around September '08 and we still haven’t heard anything :confused: I wonder what the ratings were like in Japan for New Challenger?

I’ve been wondering about that too. I could have sworn they should have started the next season already, or at least gave us some sort of idea.

I remember reading that some of the VAs mentioned doing work for the new season already. i’m sure you’ll find it if you go through this thread.

Here’s the ANN stating another season is in the works: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-06-12/sequel-to-hajime-no-ippo/new-challenger-being-planned

I want to see both Sawamura fights.

:p: round 873 :p:

Sometimes this series can be so stupid. I hate how the trainers and the audience can’t see stuff like this going down. That is, until Takamura explains it.
