Those kids really bugged the hell outta me, stop being so damn greedy. Ippo deserved that win after the ass beating that he took.

I had the same thought. I mean wtf.. I thought there would be that classic "You will get him next time" and so on from the kids. And then some epic music would come and sendo would go back to training so he could defeat ippo in the future:P Takamura was awesome this episode btw=]

AHHH I HATE THOSE FACKING KIDS.

If I was Sendo, I would have told those little shits to piss off. I mean seriously, he just got his ass beat to try and get those little twats their game systems, and all they can do is take his money? Screw that noise.

OK you said it a lot better than I could've lol.
By the way, is anyone else wondering when that "unbearable pain" is going to arrive in his hand?

Yeah, I was pretty sure that hit to the forehead would have KO'ed him. A hit like that can even be mortal.

The crowd was a bit bitchy to almost not applaude Ippo. I mean come on, that was a good fight and because of them, Ippo got hurt a lot after the ringbell.

That last scene was so crazy, Takamura looking at porn under the table xD

Oh wow that was unexpected! Really mind blowing what happened there! Really impressive that he won against him as well as it really didn't look good for Ippo, but well this sure was one hell of an epic episode! So let's see what's next!

Me:


Don't mind me...I'm just crying over Sendo. Why is it that this show has better side characters than the actual MCs?

I guess I'm not the only one who hate those kids. Seriously, why the fuck would they take his money even after he lost? Rude.

Dam that was a brutal match. And yes, the feels were felt when Sendo was unconscious :( He fought real hard but that one hit to the temple cost him the match unfortunately.

Also, the ending was hilarious. Always love their celebration shenanigans xD

This anime is very unpredictable. I was not expecting him to be unconscious already. That’s crazy.

Sendo is such a great character. It’s a shame he was given such a stupid motivation. little kids and a video game?…cmon really? So stupid.

Well I certainly didn't expect this kind of an ending.
When I realized it might have een Ippo's blow to the temple, I became worried that there might be traumatic brain injury, or even death and how that would devastate Ippo on an emotional level. Thankfully it turned out okay. What a ride!

Sick fight. The kids were kind of annoying but I get that it was supposed to show that they were his biggest fans and motivation.
