Damn! Ippo is really owning ass in the first round until the last part where the uppercut failed. I wonder how he is even going to move in the next round. >_>
I'm back.

They have both improved a lot since the last time they had a match =] although Ippo seems to be in trouble.

That was an intense fight! Gave some goose bumps while watching it! But in the first part.. i felt sorry for ippo's mother.. looks like she handles the business on her own now.. also the scene with the girl riding on the bike showed a hint of romance in this anime.. that was one ultra cute chick hehe

Introduction of a possibly new character, the riding bike girl. I guess he'll meet her sometime. And oh God, Ippo strength as no limit! That counter was brutal as hell... I wonder if it will end by a deuce.

Sick fight, I have a feeling that Ippo is going to become fairly well known because of the guy from the magazine. Wonder how it will end.

This is so awesome... I never thought boxing could be this interesting. It's amazing to see how much Ippo has improved compared to their first time sparring.

Gaaah I want to marathon right away but too bad it's time to go home.

Man that last uppercut counter punch from Miyata could've killed someone for sure, this anime is really addicting.
Also a hint for possible romance?

as much as i'm enjoying this anime, i still wish the sport wasn't boxing. it's just so hard to watch people beat up each other (and probably cause brain damage), especially with a handsome face like Miyata. protect your face damn it

If this sparring between rookies can be that freaking exciting, then I can't even imagine how exciting future fights will be! The fight choreography was awesome, and so was the animation and the sounds. I love the pacing so far and I can't wait to see more!

5/5 for this episode.

5 minutes in and RIP Balls xD

When the fish face didn't work, there's always a tako (octopus) face xD

What is this even
I don't think this is a rookie boxing match
Too many exciting moves
Too amajingu

Looks like Ippo is going to lose, well that's normal I guess

That tako-face tho lolololol xDDD

I don't expect Ippo to win yet, but I do expect him to be a formidable foe-- which he's doing AMAZING so far!!!!!! LEGGO, KIDDO >:D

PS- the girl wasn't even THAT cute, Ippo ;P I prefer long haired anime girls haha. But maybe she'll be the one for him later on. I just hope her personality won't be shitty ^^' our boi deserves da bes :]

Damn defending against a counter by stepping in, I bet that takes some courage as you can expect a good hit against your face.
Also that counter of Miyata against Ippo's uppercut must have hurt a lot.

It's the first round of a long-awaited rematch and it's a very exciting match so far. Seeing how Ippo could've finished it all in the first round, I was impressed at how they're pretty much on even ground now.

Time for Round 2!

Hajime no Ippo E06 mini Ribsview

+ First glimpse of the lady!
+ The spar match is so frigging exciting, top notch combat!
+ Round one cliffhanger makes you anxious for the next Ep.

This is how you do it! Go Ippo!

10/10
