Heh another calm episode. I guess I can deal with this. Fishing this time too XD

Lmao I can't believe what they caught ...it suddenly isn't fish. More training and bro talk. I'm ready for more matches though.

Takamura's fight is coming up I cant wait. He's going duke it out out with the American middle weight champ next this is going to be awesome!! And Miyata's punches are fast as hell he actually landed a blow on Takamura I was mad shocked.

Miyata and Takamura are two of my favourite characters in the show, so obviously I'd enjoy an episode about them...
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Once again, the episode skips more material. This time, this episode skips Ippo and Imai's second spar and how Miyata was actually watching and how it distracts Ippo and it finally establishes a relationship between Itagaki and Miyata being similar boxers and how Itagaki compares the former rivalry between Itagaki and Imai to him and Ippo's. But I am glad they are keeping Aokimura's fights on the undercard along with Miyata's fight. But it is funny to learn that Yagi was the equivalent to Martinez at fishing.

Its not that he was taught wrong, its just a bad habit hes built, something that some people could miss without really examining him. Boxing is a game of inches and fine details, its not so black and white.

Also, probably one of my favorite episodes simply because it was funny. I really don't like watching the fights all the time, it gets too monotonous. I miss all the hardcore training episodes from the first season, the strategy of preparing for a new opponent, and the detailed work of creating/mastering new techniques.

As for Miyata's father teaching him, it will explain much later on how Miyata Ichiro actually learned to box which somewhat explains his bad habits along that he mostly trains by himself.

Takamura has to be the most epic character ever. I like how Ichiro and Ippo are huge rivals and Takamura sees both of them as his bitch.

I loved this episode because we got it was hilarious and we got more Miyata. Takamura makes every episode he's in special. I love how interesting developments happen in every episode of Ippo, even funny ones like this one, to keep things interesting.

Btw, I'm really looking forward to all of these new fights!

I know, it's so frustrating sometimes but at least some people are watching and give the show the credit it deserves. I really appreciate how the creators spent their entire budget making the show as great as possible. There aren't any episode previews and there wasn't a trailer as far as I know. The show really feels polished and I really appreciate that. Conversely, it also means that less people hear about it so we need to raise the hype for the show creators!

Well, I hope they don't skip over Aokimura's fights too much and the significance of Miyata's next opponent. I will be pissed off if they cut off Miyata's opponent's back story and how he is indirectly connected to his time in Thailand. The anime already cut off the most important parts of Sawamura's connections to Sendo and Kawabe.

The evil side of Yagi-san! LOL Man those four were rubbing it in all the way on the boat with their smirks, much to Takamura and the coach's chagrin.

Oh yeah, it's about time Miyata level up too! XD

Uhh Miyata just sucks ass at boxing if he didn't even know that part about how you have to move your body and back while punching, that's the 2nd thing I learned when I started boxing ages ago lol. Actually the dude who was teaching me and my friend back then said that it's not even real punching at all if I don't do that..

The fishing part at the beginning didn't really interest me. Still, it was fun to see Takamura training Miyata how to box.

Another thing I liked about the episode is that Takamura has another world title match coming. That makes me psyched for the next few episodes.
