This series has long needed it's own thread. Best long, finished series ever. Yep Paul, after watching episode nine of New Challenger I'm going to have to say it's better than Death Note. :P
Myself, Paul, Ryuzaki, future fans...
Favourite Character?
Favourite Fight?
Favourite Opening?
And oh my god theres a character in New Challenger called Hammer Nao. What a totally awesome name.
Ahhhhhh what to watch ;( i wanna finish NHK defo, then watch brotherhood upto the latest ep, then hajime no ippo, but if its so good, should iwait for FMA for a bit longer? ahhhhh.
Oh wow, I remember this show. I barely watch it still, though I love it.
I remember the scene in the showers...
scared me for a bit, lol.
My friend at school is a giant DBZ fanatic, he'd watch no other anime. I swear he's watched DBZ like 20 times now and I forced him to watch the first episode as I was continually nudging him on MSN and said if he didnt watch it I wouldnt stop. He watched it and now he's finished the whole series in less than 4 days. I started a week before him and now he's on New Challenger. It's such a great series, it's actually forced me to work-out a bit and now I've got a daily workout plan, even though Im really slim lol.
Favourite Character is Umegawa (I think that's his name, the manga artist)
Favourite Fight is ??? (The one with the Dempsey Roll, havent seen it yet but that scene looked so bad ass)
Favourite Opening is the 2nd one.
Someone give me a link to watch it :P got nothing to do might as well watch this :P
Not megavideo though :( Subscription ran out.
Favourite Character: Ippo really but i like the charcaters sendo does get a bit to smug tho
Favourite Fight: Ippo vs sendo for the title
Favourite Opening: 2nd and then 1st one. same band so its all good
Watched kimura vs mashiba lst night. You wouldnt think someone could get so awesome during an ova xD. he should of won.
starting new challenger tonight. :D took me a week and few days to get the 1st series done so im guessing ill have this done in a few days if its as good as the 1st. also got another monitor to set up so can watch and do my normal stuff at same time now.
Umm looked up the wii game only £10 so may buy it if i ever have a tenner to waste.

Awesome lol. gonna look into more of there songs
Wow... I forgot to fill out my own questions.
Favourite Character - Takamura
Favourite Fight - Ippo vs Sendo (second time) and Takamura vs the bear.
Favourite Opening - Second
Oh my god I actually forgot all about Umezawa! He isn't really in it much later on but I love his character. He's so well developed. I don't know what episode you're on so I won't say anything but he's definitely one of the best supporting characters out there.Quote:

to late now lol and everyone spoils stuff around here anyway.
well might pace myself 5 eps a day. im also thinking about reading the manga but i dno. i hate reading online prefer a book might get one of these digital books to use and store stuff dno but its all money >.<
Edit:
Site my friend helps with
http://www.animekuro.com/anime-series/hajime-no-ippo/
Ichecked the quality and its decent. has all the eps movie and ova
Episode 16 of New Challenger was so bloody epic. The best KO in the entire series so far.
Finished New Challenger. Manly tears in episode 23. It was easily on par with the first season, if not better. Considering moving Hajime no Ippo up to my second favourite series, maybe even first. :P
Can't wait for the third season! Theres so much good stuff to come. I want to read the manga but it just wouldn't be the same.
hmm gonna watch more eps tonight. been getting htrottled past few nights
Was just flicking through the manga and for anyone wondering the anime ends around chapter 398, so chapter 399 is a good point to pick the manga up after New Challenger.
might just carry on. bitty it wasn't brought over
I ended up reading the last two chapters of Takamura vs Hawk. The art is really good and each movement in the fight is actually very easy to follow. I might just have to start reading it. :P
jesus christ i realy do suck at typing now.. bitty? lol.
And hmm might download the manga so i can store it ^^ since ill never be able to buy it :(
I watched the first 4 episodes didnt like it :(
Im more into swords/magic
If you know what I mean?
95% Of the anime ive watched has something to do with spells or swords :)
Anyway, how have you beenreading the manga? Online or download? if download where you getting it fromQuote:

Why do you want to download it for? The quality is exactly the same and there are 868 chapters! I would understand if it was just a oneshot but... 868 chapters!
might be getting an ebook or w.e there called. mate uses one and says its good. so yea lol also means i can read it at work and stuff since nothing to do there anyway >.>
SPOILERS PLEASE.Quote:

What does that spoil? Please enlighten me! Unless you're asking for spoilers? I'll be happy to divulge. :D
So the person who didn't understand why Hajime no Ippo could be so good and stated that sports anime 'wasn't his thing' is enjoying the show. There is a God.
Just joking :( No spoilers plx.Quote:

And no there isnt 1!
I don't really like watching sports either, unless it's the Olympic Games or England make it to the world cup final. I do like the occasional boxing match though, I must say.
In a totally unrelated topic... By the power of greyskull buy a Wii again. I miss our late night Brawl matches!
Mmh i agree, i rarely watch the olympics though, but i do watch tyhe world cup final and depends whos boxing really.Quote:

Huh? I didn't call you He-Man! What are you on about?
You're the master of the universe, surely you can afford another Wii. My brother has an Xbox so I can just use his but in all honesty I'm just not really interested in the games. Halo is good but I find it gets boring fast, same goes for Call of Duty. They just don't have the same fun and excitement Brawl does in my opinion.
you implied it!Quote:

Well we can just play halo, it wont have the same fun but hell its better than nothin !
Ok, let's play now! I'll just burst into my brothers room while he's sleeping and play his games. He probably won't mind. Let's do this!
Some of us have school tomorrow!Quote:
