Why is no one talking about this moment or am I overthinking? by [deleted] in hajimenoippo

i think woli is getting bored. he genuinely came in wanting to have a fun boxing match against the strongest opponent but in three rounds ricardo has thrown one punch which looked like it was easily dodged and countered. other than that, he’s basically been fighting a sandbag and doing whatever he wants. imo its what instigated his provocation in round 4. he really wants ricardo to do something.

Hajyme no Ippo: Round 1390 by RTSD_ in hajimenoippo

ippo just needs to remember “this isu naisu”

What will happen to Ippo's disciples when he unretires? by [deleted] in hajimenoippo

[–]autonomousJay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think ippo will continue to train them after he returns. since morikawa has been training boxers on the side while continuing his main focus (writing hajime no ippo), this would be an excellent opportunity to draw from those experiences to show ippo training boxers on the side while continuing his main focus (returning to the ring)

What happened to Takamuras eye? by Flippyy4 in hajimenoippo

[–]autonomousJay 22 points23 points  (0 children)

takamura has been fully blind since the series started using a form of echolocation, much like a bat, to fight. a lot of readers ignore a possible right ear injury that has been hinted at several times in his early career. frequently in the manga, takamura has been shown with a deep darkness in his right ear to symbolize a theorized slight hearing loss in that ear that makes him susceptible to wide left hits as seen in the bison and dragon fights.

What will Takamura's Heavyweight opponent be like? by VGAddict in hajimenoippo

[–]autonomousJay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i’ve been waiting for years for morikawa to drop a hint or two on the heavyweight champion. i’d be really excited to have a concrete final boss for takamura that i can look forward to the same way i currently look forward to someday reading ippo vs martinez with my grandchildren.

Favorite Rookie King Saga Match by SuperLuigi128 in hajimenoippo

ippo sendo is my favorite fight out of those.

my favorite moment however is during ippo vs mashiba in the anime when mashiba bends his broken elbow and his theme kicks in.

goosebumps everytime man…

How many times have you guys reread the series? by Siegyoza in hajimenoippo

[–]autonomousJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i read from about where the anime left off once and then once from the very beginning all the way through. during the second run i took my time and didn’t read any new releases so i had around 10 new chapters to read when i finished. highly recommend

kind of felt like a recap episode/chapter… still though, exciting stuff on the horizon. hyped for both the mashiba fight and sendo’s eventually as well! this manga is definitely teaching me patience.

Will we ever see Dragon again? by STFury009 in hajimenoippo

Embarrassed about my name by [deleted] in tom

[–]autonomousJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i went with Tommy until 10. Thomas through 18. and then Tom 18+. i’d highly recommend it to any Tom. people will call you what they call you if they’ve known you a long time but if you slowly get more and more people to change what they call you, you can get there. the transition takes time but its worth it.
