Fighting in that state, it's inhuman...

That counter was just perfect. But for a sec, I though that he raised up and that Miyata corner throwed the towel xD

It would be funny that he return and Ippo now own his belt :P

That counter reminded me of how he countered Ippo's uppercut during their 2nd sparring match.




Btw you can see how much the quality's improved compared to the first episodes :o

Beautiful how Miyata perfected the move his father could not.
Dude showed some heart.
I hope he does catch up to Ippo, them obstacles.

i really liked this side story, i was kinda getting bored with Ippo's story.

This wasn't the flashiest or longest fight, but honestly it's one of my favorites so far. Miyata really deserved that win, I was genuinely happy for him.

Tbh I really thought Jimmy was gonna get back up, so I was damn relieved when I saw the red towel! Didn't want the man shattering his eardrums just to get pummelled and lose.

Also, that music they played when Miyata realized he won was insane. Love it.

that made me so happy i could cry. he finally smiled! it was getting torturous seeing Ippo win all the time while Miyata was falling into despair and losing all matches. this should give him a boost he needed!

yay he's finally going back to Japan! but i still have a bad feeling about the whole weight issue. it must be taking a toll on his body to have to constantly keep up with featherweight requirements

One of the best Episodes so far!

It was great too see Miyata make a comeback after his defeat to Mashiba in the Semi-Finals!

Hope him and Ippo have another fight soon!

Respect to Payao for risking valuable income on Miyata's success. That takes balls to do that, especially since they're the poorest of the poor in such a country.

I really liked the match, it was kinda brutal. There was some great visual storytelling going on in this episode, with the "white noise" and whatnot, one could really feel the weight and gravity.

And Miyata smiled! That was great.

Payao wiping his car was simply adorable xD

I also really liked Chana :D sweet, sweet kiddo <3

Miyata is lucky to have his dad understand him
And Ippo is lucky that the chief does the same

Both are blessed to have great mentors who worry but believe in them even against all odds :')

I wonder how many odds did they get from Miyata's win, considering no one bet for Miyata

Awww, now that's the face of a winner!

Alright! So this has to be one of the darkest episode in this anime so far! I can't even explain how stressed i was to see this episode! Compared to miyata, ippo's having such good trainees like takamura and all! Really looking forward to the next episode, and ippo vs miyata!! God knows when that'll happen

YAY!! I'm so happy for Ichiro!! I was worried about his eardrums but it seems like he healed enough to be able to fly back to Japan!
His farewell words to Chana were so great and I hope it inspires Chana to try boxing too! That'd be cool!!
I hope Ichiro and his father had a nice family moment after the match. You could tell his dad was so proud of him. I wish they showed that in the anime.
I want to see Ippo and Ichiro interact again uwu i need a reunion

He ruptured his eardrum and got beaten to a pulp but he won the fight by using his injuries as a front to fool Sisfar into reaching in for the kill! It was very difficult to see him suffer in the ring but the payoff is definitely apparent once he got his unexpected victory.

Nearly everyone in that stadium lost their monthly salaries but Payao got a new ride out of it lmao

Holy shit Miyata actually takes a W for once. Still I'm sure nothing will come from the injured ear as it seems the show never actually makes any of its cast face the consequences of their actions à la Ippo's broken to shit fist.

  • Miyata rupturing his eardrum and falling in and out of consciousness was crazy, especially right before his big counter.

  • Damn, Miyata really punched the hell out of Jimmy. First time that man has ever been knocked down. 👍🏻 Miyata

    For a second there I thought Jimmy was gonna get up o.o
    Yeah with all that talk, I thought he was gonna get up back up as well 😂

  • Glad everyone decided to show love for Miyata at the end :) we even got a smile from him!

I f*cking love Miyata. Probs my fav character along with Takamura.

Unlike Ippo’s fights, I really feel nervous when Miyata fights because there’s so much uncertainty. Which makes it more fulfilling when he wins!!

Easily one of the best episodes of the series so far. It demonstrates that the best thrills don't come from the largest stage or huge fights against ranked fighters, but from the characters and their evolution.

Miyata's Thailand arc was short but great, and it was a great way to mix-up Ippo's constant wins that are starting to feel a little formulaic to me. This episode was tense throughout but had huge payoff and I was overjoyed to see Ichiro finally win. Great ep.

everything was fine and all but Mashiba's match being an example to expose Miyata's weakness was strange
he didnt get to that dire state in that match because of flaws in his style

I wonder if the final slip up Miyata had was intentional to lure in his opp

anyways last 2 fights felt very rushed hope things get better in coming episodes
