Hajime No Ippo Dispite it Having some weak points.Its still a great Manga never the less.
Story:9
The story started out simple Ippo whats to know what it mean to be strong.While that is a pretty simple goal its self later on.Ippo goes into a deeper meaning.That the "strength" he wanted wasn't phsyical strength but something much deeper than that.
Art:9
The early chapters of Hajime the Art isn't bad but not good either.But Its Progression becomes aperent.Morikawa-san has one of the best art progression ive seen in a manga.The Climax of each fight Morikawa puts so much build up and anticipation then when the final shot comes in.Morikawa
...
puts so much detail into one big hit and in that one punch the illustration really shows the impact and the destruction of the punch.Now going from that part.The Art also conveys so much emotions through every punch
Characters:10
Personally I like to the of Hajime No Ippos Characters as the One Piece of Sports Manga.Such a Large cast with very strong motivations and dynamics to them that they get arcs dedecated to them.Not one character is there just to box they all have there personal reasons on why they do boxing.In Most cases you might find your self rooting against the MC himself.
Enjoyment:10
This Manga can really teach you so much about boxing.Morikawa even takes the time to show you the basics.Then walk you along with some more advanced techniques.And Often teach you about real life boxers manly from their style to their careers as a boxer.I enjoyed this manga So much that im a fan of Boxing now.
Overall:
Now this isn't the perfect manga out their but if anything it has very few flaws.Honestly one of the greatest Sports manga Ive had the plesure of reading.Now the length may be a huge turn off for yall and I can understand that.So if you wanna cut down on the number of chapters you wanna read the I advise you watch the anime(it covers 558 chapters).Either way your going to see some power and impactful moments.
