Continue readingHajime no Ippo
Look, at one point in my life Ippo was one of my favorite manga of all time. I would still advise people to check out the anime because if you haven’t heard punches accompanied by jet engines sound effects, you haven’t lived. However this manga has gone on for too long and it’s just tedious in so many ways now. Unfortunately the most recent events in this series make it clear that we’re still no where near the ending.
I pray George Morikawa will be able to finish what he started almost 29 years ago.
