Hajime no Ippo

[Hatake Kakashi]

Anime stopped around Volume 29 or 30 someone said. That is only episode 75 (76 wasn't in the manga I don't think)

I hear the movie and OAV leave out a lot of stuff, so I am just going to start finding raws from Volume 29 and going from there.

[Munsu]

if anyone is interested in reading the manga from where the anime left off let me know now and post it in this thread so i can upload it to yousendit.com

the manga is great too bad they had to end the anime, but there is a possibility of a second season

[Munsu]

from what ive heard the companies involved want to make a sequel or at least animate some more, so hopefully there will be... the next portion of the series has some of the greatest fight, so i really want to see it animated

reviving an old thread here...

i spent the last two days watching this series (plus the 2 movies) and it was awesome! i didn't think i'd be THAT into it, since i'm not so passionate about beating up other people as most guys are. but then again, as a girl who's into watching shounen anime, i guess watching a series about boxing wasn't that much of a stretch [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Then go to irc or boxtorrents and download the manga cause the scans are 30+ vols beyond where the anime ends

[Honoko]

oohh, i can't find the hajime no ippo manga on boxtorrents =( and i'm irc illiterate...... any suggestions on where i can find it websurfing? budweineken, help me out? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

[Munsu]

dont have high-speed internet, so sorry...


for irc...

all you have to do is connect to the server /server irc.irchighway.net

then go to the channel... /join #lurk

then /msg Neverwhere xdcc send #x

where "x" is the pack number that corresponds to the Ippo manga as depicted in this site (the numers to the far left of the file you want): http://www.thelurker.net/index.php?id=1

Other than that, I can't help you... google for an irc guide

There is a torrent link it is quite big thogh almost 16gigs. i got this a year or two ago and man ippo is one of the best animes ever. The gba game kicks so much ass also. I is alot like superpunch out on snes. multiplayer is the stuff i always use date eji and one of my brothers uses shigeta and the other uses ippo. The charcters are made very well in the game and are like there selfs on the anime.

i was looking for hte manga.... but thanks guys for ur input-- i'm gonna keep on looking before succumbing to irc =P

Hajime is an interesting phenomenon, it keeps getting praise from all sorts of people most of which don't even like sports.

My question is: is this show actually good if you aren't into boxing and etc? I need a new "complete" series to watch, and I'm curious about giving this one a shot.
Just let me clarify once more that I really detest sports anime in general. So what do you guys think?

[Munsu]

It has great characters... it has a lot of awesome comedic scenes... and the fights are awesome... especially towards the end of the series...

One thing you'll need to get used to is that at times sports anime tend to have slow portions... but if you can handle the slow portions of Naruto and such, then you'll have no problems with HnI...

Terra:

I love sports but i'm not a fan of boxning. What i like most in this anime and manga is the characthers i have never fealed so much for characthers in a manga or a anime as i do for Takamura,Ippo,Aoki,Kimura. The best cast of charachters i have seen. The comdey is worldclass,so is the drama,the fights everything.

[Honoko]

takamura's hilarious.... i crack up every time he starts making fun of everyone else b/c they can't get back at him whatsoever [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

[DeluxSkillz]

yes Terra go download it now! it not only has some of the funniest characters it has some of the best fight scenes any anime would wish to have, like Bud said some pieces might feel slow but stick trough them, this is one anime i would recommend anybody who watches any anime at all unless you really really really hate boxing, but if you just dislike sports anime because your used to stuff like Prince of Tennis well your in for a treat HnI is everything a sports anime is supposed to be and more, i can say with almost 100% certainty i've seen HnI over 10 times all the way trough and I still enjoy rewatching it, HnI has a special place up in my top anime list rivaling anime's like Bleach, One Piece and Naruto.......plus your favorite gundam seed/destiny characters voice actor does the voice for one of the characters in HnI

[Hakeem_21]

Which one i wanna know!!

[DeluxSkillz]

okay okay Miyata's voice actor is the same as Yzak's voice actor they're both non-main characters but they are both cool and full of attitude

[Hakeem_21]

Oh okay then the voice actor must be very good since they dont sound similar at all. Yzak isnt my kind of character Miyata isnt iether but he is a good character.

[Terracosmo]

Jesus Christ you people were right, this is so damn addictive. I've seen 17 eps in no time, man, what an awesome show.

[DeluxSkillz]

good we have created another HnI fan! now go watch the rest it keeps getting better and better and when you're done download the manga from snoopycool it goes way further then the anime, the anime is like 30 volumes and there are already 73 volumes in japanese 52 have been translated
