Hajime no Ippo - DerMensch24 - Apr 21, 2016

Quote:Makunouchi Ippo has been bullied his entire life. Constantly running errands and being beaten up by his classmates, Ippo has always dreamed of changing himself, but never has the passion to act upon it. One day, in the midst of yet another bullying, Ippo is saved by Takamura Mamoru, who happens to be a boxer. Ippo faints from his injuries and is brought to the Kamogawa boxing gym to recover. As he regains consciousness, he is awed and amazed at his new surroundings in the gym, though lacks confidence to attempt anything. Takamura places a photo of Ippo's classmate on a punching bag and forces him to punch it. It is only then that Ippo feels something stir inside him and eventually asks Takamura to train him in boxing. Thinking that Ippo does not have what it takes, Takamura gives him a task deemed impossible and gives him a one week time limit. With a sudden desire to get stronger, for himself and his hard working mother, Ippo trains relentlessly to accomplish the task within the time limit. Thus Ippo's journey to the top of the boxing world begins.

Glad I can finally post these threads now :)

While I am not personally a sports anime fan, this is one of my all-time favorite anime. Combining an amazing artistic style, wonderful character development, action-packed and a strong, often comedic at times, story, it truly is a remarkable anime. This is definitely an anime that once you get hooked into you'll want to watch it all the way through.

The anime itself gets very detailed and in depth about the life of a boxer through the eyes of its main characters. The first season is a lot longer than the other two seasons, however its still a great anime overall but I will let you guys decide that for yourselves ;)

Did Ippo and Miyata ever had a fight?

I believe the third season set them up to have one in the (hopefully soon) fourth season, otherwise all I can recall are the two sparring matches they had in the first season.

One of the best sports anime out there, it's wat got me into sports anime.

For people that watch haikyuu, I recommend hajime no ippo it's on the same level entertainment wise. Yes the animation feels "outdated" compared to haikyuu but you're missing out if you don't watch this.

I loved all the seasons of hajime no ippo it's really good in every aspect. Although i hear it's one of those shows drastically behind the manga; and maybe one day they'll adapt more into the anime as they have so much into the manga atm(ongoing). Third season got pretty cool IIRC as it showed Spoiler (Click to View)

Its a sports anime about boxing, but it does have some comedy and other subtle things hidden within it.

A friend recommended this anime because of great fighting scenes, and I started watching it. I didn't watch that many episodes because I was busy and ended up forgetting about it, but it is an interesting anime. I'll most likely start watching it again very soon.

I have watched a shit ton of Anime but Hajime No Ippo stands at top in my opinion.
