Ippo can't recall the basics of boxing worth poo poo but he sure can tell you in intricate detail what it's like to be punched

Tell me what his punches are like Ippo!

They hurt, they hurt really really bad! I can't remember what happened after that, or even before

It's kinda weird to ask Ippo to recount a fight that he lost because he was literally blanking out from brain damage

That was not the fight he lost from blanking out to due to damage. That was the next one. Gonzales was the one who broke him.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

I wish I trusted Morikawa to be this good with foreshadowing for the statue to be anything more than a 4-koma sight gag.

TBF, the fight you GET brain damage in is probably going to be fuzzy as well.

It really feels that blatant doesn't it. If not death, then severe career ending injury.

The arm falling off and being easily reattached symbolizes Ippo's willingness to take damage in fights and continuously shrug it off as not being a big deal. The head coming off foreshadows the real permanent damage that waits in his future, being enabled by well-meaning but incompetent friends and coaching.

In actual manga chat, isn't Sendo like the 3rd character to 'go on ahead'? I feel like I've seen that particular phrase before from Takamura or Miyata.

Mashiba got over Ippo almost immediately after they fought

Well, if by "got over" you interpret to mean "is not professionally fixated on" and not "is fine with the idea of his sister being in a relationship with"

Vorg's one was so good, it ran through chapter 1,000. Just start a little before that to see what's up.

loving Miyata not knowing Math. Also Mashiba is a good person, treating the black cat.

edit: Yeah Vorg was the first one and man I remember all of us were like god he's gonna lose and were so drat happy he actually won.

drat this chapter confirms that I am actually a dumbass since I have completely forgotten how to do factorials, though it's been like 17 years since I did math problems like that.


Miyata's face was my face when I was looking at those equations.

But this chapter centered around Miyata, the one character less interesting than him.

Mashiba is great and I hope all the answers he gave were correct.

I think Mashiba and maybe Kimura are probably the only actual intelligent people in the manga right?
