Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger

[Dark Dragon]

ANN tells 13 yet, but they don't even have all of the titles yet.
So it's hard to know.

My guess is that they may go for 26 and see from there.
I can't think of it finishing at 13 eps since Date arc needs 2 or 3 eps at max to be finished.

I don't know if it would be a good idea to stop it as early as 26. Ippo is quite popular and there is also a ton of material for them to work with if they decide to keep this series going for a longer period of time.

They should be making more anime of manga like this and 3x3 eyes where there are a ton of content to work with rather than series that barely has 50 chapters (soul eater) and then destroying the story once they catch up to the manga.

edit: damn it, i tried to edit my previous post and somehow got a double post, could someone please delete the one above?
