Hajime no Ippo

[Neversoft]

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.

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.

[Southe,]

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 . he should of won.

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.

Watched kimura vs mashiba lst night. You wouldnt think someone could get so awesome during an ova . he should of won.

I felt the same way. I think I actually liked Kimura vs Mashiba better than the movie. The ending was so emotional and I love how it focused on Kimura of all people. You should use spoiler tags for that last line though.

Oh and I'm watching New Challenger right now, but it's taking me ages because I've been so damn busy lately. On episode 12 though, hoping to finish it this weekend.

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.

[Neversoft]

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.

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.
