TIL the author of Hajime no Ippo opened up an actual boxing gym based off Kamogawa Boxing gym from the manga.

Even has Takamura’s statue on top. It’s also not just a tourist trap. It’s a real gym with a real training staff and real professionally trained boxers.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT NO WAY

One of the best anime ever gets an actual official US re-release?!

After the failed dvd releases back in the early 2000’s because Geneon didn’t do this anime PR justice and also completely renamed it Fighting Spirit.

News - Kodansha has added the first 10 volumes (chapters 1-87) of George Morikawa's classic boxing manga Hajime no Ippo to their K-Manga English manga service! This is the first time the manga has been available legally in English, and Kodansha will also be adding new chapters weekly. Currently, it doesn't look like they have any plans to release the series physically, so if you're looking to read it yourself, it's exclusively available through through their online catalog here.

A question everyone, are there any martial arts sports manga you all recommend? It's a type of story I hear next to nothing about and I was curious if there were any out there.

The only two I heard of is Hajime no Ippo, which I constantly hear good things about, and Teppuu which I actually read and am a huge fan of.
