| Great episode. The action was almost non stop. Raising that arm high in the air proudly~ Miyata was pretty damn awesome and it was nice to see him fight for his family and pride. |
 |
| Epic episode!!! Miyata is just too OP!! Not a single hit XD And Damn!! That cross-counter gotta hurt >~< actually felt bad for the dude. The audience's reaction to Ippo being there and the cheering for them to face off gave me goosebumps :D SO AWESOME!! When will it happen I wonder -.- Nxt up the most epic fight!! Can't friggin wait!! |
 |
| Gosh i hate Mr. Sakaguchi, robbing the Dachboy's fight money whose fighting for his daughter, this does happen a lot in real boxing though. Crowd wants that Ippo vs Miyata fight but we know it aint gonna happen anytime soon, Takamura fights next ! Cant wait for that match to start!! Love his fights! and its going to be crazy once he moves weigh class |
 |
| what a fucking masterpiece |
| What an episode I had No idea Miyata was that damn fast also that. Lol at Ippo being misunderstood. The fight of all fights is coming up next. |
| After all these years, i must be a fool for not realizing that Sakaguchi was heavily inspired by Don King. |
| the chants at the end omg |
| Yup dem chants made me excited , make it happen :D |
 |
| Miyata vs Ippo next? ye make it happen! |
| make it happen ippo vs miyata. but miyata looked fuckin OP. |
| Cty Best mid |
| That hyping. Time for Takamura. |
Katagari said: I do believe they can fight now, if it's arranged. Going on to the world stage involves giving up their respective belts (Ippo's Japan title and Miyata's OPBF) and they may have less control over match-making then.Can't say I really care for Miyata so wasn't as hyped for this episode as I have been so far. Ready for next week's match! Can someone please explain to me why Ippo and Miyata can't fight now, or why Ippo wouldn't be able to fight Miyata if he went to world fights? Little confused there =/ |
| Great episode, but I really can't wait for the next one. |

| What the...the fight turned out be just a sparring practice for Ichiro! X-( Mr. Sakaguchi used the Thai as a cannon fodder to probe and analyze Miyata's technique, but then it's still unfinished as the episode title says, even though Mr.Sakaguchi is confident he saw the way to exploit it. Ippo's slip of the tongue got the crowd itching for the fight between him and Miyata. XD |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| The buildup for Takamura and ippo vs miyata fight was marvelous. Excellent anime. |
 |
| I don't get it, how much info did Sakaguchi expect to get from having the guy just stand there and take punches? It seems like he only gained something useful when he actually fought back. But whatever moving on~ |
 |
| Great fight. now finally it's time for takamura .. nice. |
| God, I fucking love Miyata's fights. |
 |
| I really liked this episode and I can't wait for the Ippo Miyata fight. I just wish Miyata had more of a challenge. We already don't get much of him so when we do get a Miyata fight I'm always hoping his challenger is worthy |
| Finally the main fight of the season next ep |
 |
| This ep just makes me want to watch Miyata vs Randy Boy Jr. already.. Ok, next. |
 **☾** |
| i felt for medgoen this ep ;_; poor guy >< an admirable fighter until the end! :-) cannot wait for takamura's fight now omg *_* i have a bad feeling tho like i feel that he's gonna be on the ropes right from the start or something :( |

Little confused there =/ Can they fight now? Absolutely....will they? That's the greater question. Manga readers know the final answer to this... And now its time for the hawk. Or the Bear...or the Ogre...however you want to say it. |

emeraldrosary said: You missed the part where he was only using him to 'sound out' Miyata's abilities, not beat him.Flawless victory. This wasn’t as interesting as I thought it would be for a Miyata episode but still good none the less. I still don’t understand why Sakaguchi used Medgoen Dachboy. How did he plan on beating Miyata? He told him to keep his guard up and use a turtle strategy but I don’t see how that would’ve helped him beat Miyata unless he had a secret trick up his sleeve. As another poster noted, it's ironic, as it's only because Medgoen struck out that he learned anything of value. |
| Oh Ippo you just had to say that out loud didn't you? |
| Awwwwwww yea, the main event is finally coming up :D |
 |
| Interesting ending! Quite liked the overall episode so let's see what's next! |
 |
| Not much of a challenge for Miyata.. Well compared to ippo who looks like trash after a fight. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| "Who's the bozo with the big mouth?" Then everyone turns around and sees Ippo xD I hope we see some kind of epilogue of that guy and his daughter. On another note, they drew the cornea of her eye way too big. Kinda creepy lol. I really hope we get Ippo vs Miyata at the end of this season, but I doubt it. Just not enough time with seven episodes to go :( I wonder what the chances of a S4 are. This Takamura match should be hype though. His last fight was the best in the series! |
| Damn, Miyata destroyed that guy. The Mr Sakaguchi sub plot I feel is gonna take off soon. I'm figuring he's gonna wind up getting some monster to fight Miyata in the future who counters him perfectly or something. Anyway, time for the Takamura fight. Not really that hyped for it, but hope it's atleast entertaining |
| Nice to see a Miyata fight again, too bad for the tragic backstory. |
 |
| They've been teasing the Ippo vs Miyata fight since season 1 and that came out 16 fuckin years ago! Just make them fight already for fucks sake! |
| Good to see Medgoen fighting for his family and pride. And idk why but I think I've lost my liking for Miyata now. He seemed more charming as a losing prince haha |
 |
| It was a good episode, but I wish the fight would have been longer. I still hate that ugly midget, he was completely unnecessary. If they elaborated a bit more on the enemy's backstory with his little daughter and made him a bit more capable and not just a sandbag, it would have been more exciting. On the other hand, the way it is now it goes to show you just how much Miyata has grown as a boxer! He's definitely better prepared for the world stage than Ippo... that cocktease though. I swear I'll ragequit if the Ippo vs. Miyata match sucks. Is that even in the manga yet? I guess I'll see when I get around to it. |
