Hajime no Ippo

Its been a while since i watched this anime. Napanood ko siya ulit sa channel 7, kung baga ni-run nila ulit ito after how many years na wala sa air time. Medyo sakto sa timing na malapit na ang laban ni Manny Pacquiao laban kay Marco Antonio Barrera. Mahilig din ako sa sport na ito, pero minsan sinubukan ko... masakit talaga pag tumama yung mga suntok ng kalaban mo. Back to the anime, i want to watch it in japanese words.... mas astig kasi pag japanese and sub title lang ang babasahin mo para makarelate. And there are some scenes na pinutol sa channel 7, para mapanood ko rin ung mga cut scenes. Grabe when i saw the cut scenes lakas ng tawa ko.... lalo na kay Ippo nung may ka-sparring siyang tv reporter na babae. About sa info ng anime, this is the summary.... Hajime no Ippo was about a young boy who's bullied in his school.... when Takamura saw it and save him from the bullies who later became his friends.

Makunouchi Ippo

At first, Takamura help Ippo to feel okay... so he told to punch the sand bag and to put weight on it. Thats the beginning of the superb story of the young champion. Thru his road to championship belt... his friends help him in his matches.

Takamura, Aoki and Kimura

In championship match, he fight against Takashi Sendo an in-fighter the same as Ippo. The battle was intense... leading the fans cheer to death. They exchange blows as if there is no more tomorrow... until the liver blows of Ippo affect Sendo and break Sendo's ribs. This resulted the combination move of Ippo of all he learned in boxing... all his finishing blows..... Liver Blow, Gazelle Punch and Dempsey Roll.

The Champion....

Thats the ending of the Anime series of Hajime no Ippo. Ippo became champion.... but there's a OVA which shows the fight between Kimura and Mashiba for the championship. And also there's another OVA shows the first title defense of Ippo.

Champion Road

Its not all..... after the series and OVA. The fight of Ippo continues on manga. There you will see the other title defenses of Ippo and their winning and losing. "What does it mean to be strong? How does it feel to be strong?", this is the quote of Ippo... He still searching for it. All i can say to this Anime is ASTIG!!!
