Getting intense now. Poor Ippo, he's bleeding in his eyes...

I'm still cheering for Ippo to kick Sawamura's ass though. I think Sawamura is really starting to enjoy this fight as well. And yes! Dempsey Roll gogogogo

Is it a double episode? Crunchyroll shows that episode 12 is out in 1:01:20 and 13 in 1:31:20

Friggin EPIC episode!!! That was so intense!!

The Sawamura beat down at the start with Ippo's body blows were epic even though it was all Sawamura's plan.

Miki is just doing an absolutely stellar job with Sawamura. Dat VAing is too good. He just feels so evil. Which is PERFECT!! Loved the scenes he was talking about the meat tenderness.

Ippo getting hit by the second counter and still standing was awesomely animated. AND DAT OST was just too good >.<!!!

Then the third Dempsey roll!! GOOSE BUMPS!!! EPICNESS!! With Sawamura's reaction to him freezing like that. Sooo good!

Going to see nxt ep now then :D

This episode was just awesome, but couldn't have Ippo used the Dempsey Evolution on his 2nd Dempsey Roll ? Would have taken a lot less beating.
Damn that last punch! Shingeki no Kyojin tier goosebumps!
The insert song was also awesome. Does anyone know the name of it ?

The insert song is called ; Pay money To my Pain - Weight of my pride

It was also used in a few episodes back.

Yeah that's a legitimate question, why didn't he use the new Dempsey roll before trying the regular one a second time? Sure he's only allowed to use it twice I think it was but still.

this episode was intense, that's why I love Ippo, in the end it always delivers. though again I think Ippo kinda sucks for getting so much beating, he'll have brain damage in no time if he was in real life. anyway I'm very excited to move into the next one just came out :P

I also think Ippo should've used the movement earlier, even if he pushes it to 3 times, I thnk he'll push it anyway.

God dam Ippo shouldnt just went down for good at the second Demspy tbh. If he had done the new Demspy Roll instead I wouldve been content with it but being hit with a right this time and still standing makes no sense to me. I just want Ippo to lose.

Everyone talking about the second Dempsey roll:

Im pretty sure it shows Ippo trying to stop himself like he did on the 3rd one, but not quite getting it (thats why he didn't get as hurt as the 1st one). Either that, or he was still testing out the speed that Sawamura had in his right hand counter and trying to bait him into over-committing in that 3rd counter.

Thats what I'd do anyways

I agree. They showed us how he tried stopping his leg. But seems like he couldn't get it right the first time.

I love this anime. and I love ippo. But man he fking annoys me. He knew the challenger is going to counter his Dempsey roll, he knew all that and has been training to overcome that in the episodes before. and yet he just fking did it anyway just to see if he can? what kind of fking illogical idiot does that shit? and then in shock that his old Dempsey roll is countered!? wtf? if that's the case why bother showing us the episodes of sparring with white fang showing what sawamura is going to do? I just don't fking get the logic behind this show. Yet I will still love to watch it b/c I want to see sawamura's butt kicked

Damn. That was awesome. I think i pee myself a little from excitement. And that last scene with Ippo freezing and tightening his muscles for that punch was really as an epic episode end as you can get.

Ippo is a masochist. There problem solved.
Really though the first time i guess it was like he wasn't sure if Sawamura was really capable of counter it or not and maybe he thought if there wasn't a need to put extra pressure to his legs to do the stopping move then it will be better to just fight as usual but in the second attempt he did try to stop himself and do what he did with the third Dempsey. That's why he was still standing after the hit. Because he actually stopped himself a little so the hit mostly had the power coming from his opponent movement and not the added power of him moving directly into the punch. In other words the second counter wasn't very much a counter but mostly a right punch. If it was a full counter he wouldn't have been standing.

OMG! Almost the entire episode is hard to watch, I find myself swinging back and forth from loathing Sawamura, that elbow should have disqualified him already after all the foul behavior he's been exhibiting since the start of the match, to cringing in worry and anxiety for Ippo whose hanging on to his fighting spirit alone so that Sawamura will not make a mockery of the sport he loves. It's like being in the dark tunnel and Ippo's last punch at the end of the episode is like a light at the end of that tunnel. I fervently hope and pray that b@$+ard Sawamura felt that!
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

Registered just to say HOLY CRAP THAT ENDING FELT SO GOOD. First anime I have seen where I am just completely cheering "YES EAT IT YOU JERK"

To the people saying "why is he using dempsey roll", they explain it in the episode! He uses it to get inside to be able to throw punches. The anti-dempsey is a counter. If you haven't faced the counter before you can't adapt your timing. So first time he learns how he performs the counter, the second time he tries to dodge it and instead only dulls the blow. Then, well you saw the third one.

My got Sawamura is a psychopathic murderer, no other way to describe it.

And Ippo stopped the Dempsey Roll, I knew it was coming and yet my jaw still dropped when it hit. GO GET HIM IPPO!!!!!

That's what I was thinking but maybe they didn't make him do it then to add to the drama.

The animation for the fights are as awesome as ever. I was surprised Sawamura didn’t immediately attack Ippo considering he couldn’t wait to fight him last episode.
