    One of Aoki’s quotes in Hajime no ippo “if having no talent makes it okay to give up, then what was the point in ever trying,” is such a chilling line especially coming from a character always portrayed as an underdog.

    • @islandboy9381
      @islandboy9381 Před 6 měsíci +38

      Not just an underdog but one who doesn't really have that potential like your usual shonen MC as a older veteran, that makes his arcs pretty interesting and mature if you ignore all his dumb gags.

    I remember getting into Ippo when I first started training. I would read one chapter, then do push-ups, then another chapter, and do rows, etc... Easily best sports manga of all time, in contention with Eyeshield 21 and Slam Dunk, all sadly overshadowed by series with better animation and more hype. I hope we get to see the rest of the series animated one day.

    Masked after so many years watching you, you never miss to hit me in the feelings man. I sometimes write comments on your vids when i feel like it, but this time i feel like i need to express myself.
    Ever since 2015 as i was 13yo i always wanted to become manga artist, but due to many f*ck ups that i did or spend the time on other meaningless things i lost my path to my goals in life. It was very good the first years but ever since 2020 everything went downhill. This year 2023 was my worst year of productivity, I worked a job that was wayyy more time consuming that they described it to be bc we were shortstaffed etc. To the point that i only had free time to eat & sleep. Now that i am unemployed & have free time i am just scared to start over once again. I want to but i am scared that it will all fail & repeat itself like the previous times. I can't even pick myself a pen name that to be proud using bc i don't have any faoth in me anymore. I am still living, but part of me this year died & i don't know how to move forward despite losing my passion & joy in drawing/Writing. The fear had taken it all away from me. And here i am Writing this vent comments that probably no one will ever see it, but hey. At least i was leaving my Digital print here. Thanks you for your entertaining & deep Videos about manga Masked!

    The title is unbelievably true and im so happy that others feel the same way. Hajime No Ippo sowed the seeds of my training journey. I was an introverted shut-in as a kid, and watching this got me outside more often to run around my neighborhood and do calisthenics. It got me back into sports like soccer and even spurred my interest in combat sports. Today, now 21, I still train and listen to the OP theme of season 1 and 2 while I train. It taught me about discipline and striving to better yourself.

    what i also really love about ippo is that, its grounded in reality. like yeah, there'll be *some* stuff exaggerated, but there's no insane, over-the-top strength or abilities or anything. its just training, pushing yourself to your limits and seeing how far you can go. you can never tell who's truly stronger if it'll be a close battle. And with the backstories of everyone shown, even the opponents and all, i find myself rooting for some of them, like take, and with the Sendo v Volg fight, it was hard to choose who i wanted to win. The amount of effort that goes into every character alone is crazy.

I found this show at the right time, at my lowest, where I had no direction I was in college failing all my classes and seeing how hard Ippo worked, for every fight motivated me to try harder at school, to me every test was an opponent every assignment was just training at the gym.

    hajime no ippo actually taught me boxing lol, of course it's overdramatic with it's techniques but it genuinely helped me with some tips as a beginner and inspired me to learn boxing as l watched multiple CZcams boxing channels talking about footwork, feints and more. Then l actually joined a club and sparred against people, and lo behold l wasn't shit Hahaha. Take in mind l have done two years of muay thai in school since it was a sport you could participate in once a week but l never learned it properly since the teacher had to deal with like over 40 kids who all wanted to learn, though l still did have some fundamentals. I can hold my own against some amateurs and plan on competing in 2024! Thank you hajime no ippo

    It's truly one of the best sports manga out there. the main strength of the series is the well-developed characters from ippo undergoing significant growth, transforming from a timid boy into a determined and skilled boxer to the supporting cast from coach Kamogawa, best friend/rival Miyata, mentor Takamura, and a wide array of opponents, are all intricately written, each with their own motivations and backgrounds. overall, it is a compelling manga that appeals to sports enthusiasts and those interested in character-driven stories. Its blend of intense action, character development, and emotional depth make it a standout series in the sports genre.

    I remember that after reading Hajime no Ippo, I became insterested in boxing even though I didn't like it before. Because of that I wanted to start going to boxing classes, but I didn't want to go alone, so I began thinking how to convince my friend to start going with me. So I came up with an idea "I'll make him read Hajime no Ippo and maybe it'll work the same way it worked for me." So I convinced him to give it a read and about a month later he said "Hey, wanna start doing boxing together?"

    Ippo is my 3rd favorite manga, and I have been caught up to a weekly read for over a year at this point. It is in incredible exploration of a single person's life, and all the relationships that help to form Ippo into the person that he is. And Morikawa is able to do this while keeping Ippo from being the protagonist of the world, which has to be an absolutely difficult way of writing the story.
    I binged the anime, then picked up the manga where the anime left off, then have been reading weekly since being caught up. I have to say, the binge of the manga is the best way I enjoyed my time with this series. Individual chapters can feel a bit slow when contrasted to a binge. But I don't want to fall behind, I want Ippo to be a consistent part of my week.

    A favorite match for me was Date vs. Martinez. I was so invested I actually believed he was killed and so relieved he wasn't. But it displayed just how high the bar is in the world title scene compared to rookie of the year. You can just feel the overwhelming pressure. It actually felt like 'damn, I'd never survive at this level. These guys are a special breed'.

    Last year, my friend got me into Hajime no Ippo. I was sceptical because it's a sports anime, and that's not really my thing. I'm grateful to him because it's my favourite anime/manga to this day now. Probably one of the most underrated animes out there.
