Hajime no Ippo

Each series follows a story where the main character is struggling to be the best. Ippo and Hikaru both go through rough times in their conquest to get better. With great character development and comedy thrown in at just the right spots, you don't want to miss this!
Watching Hajime no Ippo immediately reminded me of Hikaru no Go. Both anime are about a person getting stronger to face a specific opponent. And there are also many similarities between the characters of both. so be sure to check one of these great anime out!
First off, both are competition-based anime about persistent and good-hearted protagonists trying to rise through the ranks of their particular sport.
On top of that the rivalry between Hikaru and Akira is incredibly similar to the rivalry between Ippo and MIyata in Hajime no Ippo.
Hajime no Ippo does not have the supernatural element of Hikaru no Go however, and has lots more physical action.
