| that was an amazing episode! I can't stop watching |
| wow the fight was so awesome and yeah its addicting |
 |
| that was the best fight so far! |
| Yeah, that was a great fight. I went to bed figuring I would just watch episode 12 before falling asleep. Before I knew it, I had to watch all the episodes through this one to see how this fight turned out. It didn't disappoint. |
| Good fight, it was definitely gritted out. |
| I have to admit Hajime no Ippo's is GREAT! I love every opponent, especially Jason was wonderful, I cheered for him although I guessed beforehand that he would lose. His voice was so cute/funny... Great match! |
 |
| Great fight, yes. And I like how it ended ^_^ |
| Jason was a nice guy but there could only be one winner. Good job Ippo! |
 |
| Go Ippo xD! Awesome match up that final flurry of punches was great =] |
| Great fight. :D |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| His face at the end cracked me up XD Great fight, but Ippo's plan to block every punch with his face probably shouldn't be used again for a while... I actually considered dropping this very early on-I'm so glad I didn't!! |
| "Ah yes, the demon drink...'Nature's Alzheimer's' they call it" |
| Ippo is so strong! :-O That last combo was insane! If you turn up the sound..you can really hear ribs shattering! haha the second punch looked like Jason already lost consciousness.. But the end was still good.. i hope Jason's career blossoms and acquires many fans.. he's such a good guy just like ippo :-) |
   |
| At some points I didn't know who to root for. Brilliantly done. Favourite episode so far. |
 |
| Great ep ^^ hope we see a rematch one time. |
| That was a great match, I really liked the direction of the episode. The audience reactions were placed perfectly to make it even more intense and a good cool-down period at the end with the guys from the gym laughing. I also liked that they were polite and civil with each other without the stare down contests and blustering which I find somewhat childish in real-life boxing. |
| Jason looks like a 30 year old heavyweight. |
| Incredibly episode and fight, the scene when the crowd greets ozuma made me cry a little :') |
 |
| Ippo = King |
GreatTeacherKen said: thisGreat fight with Ozuma. The show is seriously addicting. I hope I'm not speaking too soon, but if this show keeps it up, it might become one of my favorites. |
 .. |
| I wanted Jason to win :( |
| What an intense finish! Pretty satisfied with this episode. :D |
 |
| amazing fight |
 |
| Damn, this series is addicting. Great, intense episode. Can't wait to see the next fight. |
| Lemme smang it girl. |
| Round one clear.Well, I have to say I enjoyed the fight till the last second. Jason was a great opponent. |
 |
| What a amazing intense fight, jason was a great opponent who you wouldnt have mind if he had won the match, I was actually hoping it would end in a draw, I really hope jason is a returning character later on in the series. |
| I have a question. If amateur fights should end after second knock-down, why Ippo, who was knocked 2 times, still could fight against Jason? |

| Nice, he cleared the first round. *claps* |
 |
| That's what you call determination... I always love the way he just bow to the crowd, it just doesn't make it xD Recover from a fight like that risk to be hard. |

| Ippo's hardest fight yet but as it is with all fighting anime, more difficult challenges are sure to come. |
| When the crowd started applauding and cheering for Ozuma, I teared a little. Excellent episode!! I still have 60 episodes to go! Edit: Rewatching, and damn I love how the atmosphere/animation suddenly paused for a moment when Ippo dodged that hook! Epic! |

| Lolol that long interval where Ippo was thinking was only 1-2 seconds? lol... Ahh, only in anime world. Pity Jason didn't win, I was rooting for him but man that fight was violent.. I cringed when I heard his ribs cracking, this is why I can't watch rl boxing. |

Ahh, only in anime world. Anyways, fantastic fight and a great episode as always. Loving this series. |
| Good ending for the post match. Happy for the two characters as they both came out winners for delivering a crowd-pleasing match that will surely be remembered throughout the tournament. Jason was the most legitimate threat to Ippo's streak so far. Wonder how they'll top this. |
 I REMEMBER TOUCH. PICTURES CAME WITH TOUCH. A PAINTER IN MY MIND. |
| Really epic that Ippo won this match! Really impressive ending, I do wonder who's next though! Great episode. |
 |
| Ippo should ve lost. |
| The sad part about winning is that there will always be a loser :( Uber_Dewber said: eternaltorture said: I like to look at it as that's what's going on in their minds within that short period of time, so time isn't really going by as fast when it's the characters talking to themselves.Lolol that long interval where Ippo was thinking was only 1-2 seconds? lol...

This is just the beginning lol. |
 |
| I enjoyed seeing Jason's fans supporting him until the end. |
 |
| Fantastic episode, didn't think Ippo could win. |
 |
| Ozuma is so sweet. The fight was awsome and I loved the counter attack of Ippo in every hit he got from Ozu. I almost cried when Ippo was thanking his fans for cheering for him. |
| This fight was awesome. If the fights are already so entertaining, I can only imagine how epic the later fights (especially newer seasons) must be. Can't wait! |
| ~ The world is not beautiful, therefore it is. |
| It was a wonderful fight. Ozuma did his best. And lol at the ending segment XD |
 |
| Jfc, that was a damn good fight. Holy crap, I think I was holding my breath. I might just be crying little. Aggh. |
