What can I say about Hajime No Ippo other then it’s a great story that gives otaku everywhere some self confidence to be strong.
The story consists of one Makanouchi Ippo, a social outcast who is picked on because he is passive, poor and smells bad because of his family fishing shop. One day Ippo is being bullied out in the open and a man jogging by scares off the kids. Ippo asks the man to teach him how to be strong and thus begins Ippo’s run of determination.
The theme of this manga is “What is it like to be strong?” and pure determination and hard
Hajime no Ippo was great until the series decided to repeat everything, no changes, barely any plot, and became worse over time. Story: 6/10 the story is fine, the typical shonen manga with the protagonist wanting to be “the strongest” Plot: 3/10 I know this series is supposed to be a sports manga, but for fuck’s sake, make some changes, literally almost nothing that happens, matters. The typical formula in the manga is like this: Ippo trains > we get to see the new opponent > Ippo nearly loses but wins in the last second > the cast doing “side quests” > rinse and repeat. It was like that for
work. It has very good character development showing every last spec of emotion that all the characters feel at every moment, as well as epic fights (although I do admit the fights wouldn’t be like that if they were real)
There is a good bulk of training in this series and it takes up a good chunk of the series but is more then made up for when the fights roll around. And you know what? I don’t mind all mind that much because that’s what boxers do. Train, fight, train, fight. Very good insight on what a boxers day to day life is like.
The comedy in this manga is great. Usually in manga when there is filler people dread, but Hajime no Ippo delivers the most hilarious filler I have ever seen in my days.
All in all Hajime no Ippo is a great long running story with a mangaka that has as much stamina as his protagonist when it comes to writing. (And I’m not sure about all of you but Hajime no Ippo has motivated me to start working out more and become more active)
Overall Rating 10/10
but itagaki just reeeeeallly annoys me those last couple of chapters in which he starred kinda pissed me off. I am now a full fledged un repentant otaku. I like all types of manga not just sports or even shounen but i admit without hesitation that hajime no ippo is the absolute best. I have read dozens of manga and i’m sure to name this one in the top five for sure!!!! P.S. this manga is older than i am!!!!!
