Hi, for joe yabuki shrine. How was the shrine in your joe blog related to Joe? How people are able to relate where Joe gym used to be? was it mentioned in the manga?
The link between Joe and Tamahime Inari Jinja? Joe lived in that area (I refer to it as Joe’s heartland in my original post), and he met Danpei Tange for the first time in the park next to the shrine.
The gym is mentioned in the manga, but it never existed in real life. Fans nonetheless love trying to guess where it might have been. Here's one example; here's another one.
You can Google terms like 泪橋 ボクシングジム (Namidabashi boxing gym) and 泪橋 あしたのジョー (Namidabashi Ashita no Joe) with, if necessary, the help of Google Translate or DeepL.

Undead Unluck ch.143 thoughts
[Ashita no Fuuko]
It’s the third year anniversary! Only one more year until my prophecy comes to pass, and at the pace we’re going, I can absolutely see Undead Unluck either making it right to the finish line or even going over by a number of chapters! I don’t necessarily see it hitting five years, but at the same time I’m not exactly opposed to the idea
Man...there’s something melancholy knowing that we might well be in the final year of the story, much like how One Piece is rapidly approaching its finale in the next two years or so. I’m very excited, but I’m honestly worried about what’s going to fill the void. I’m loving Cipher Academy, but for completely different reasons, and I’m definitely not as attached to Cipher Academy as I am to Undead Unluck
But enough moping! This is a celebratory time, and we open with a stunning color page! This is our first time seeing Void in color, and seeing how he contrasts Fuuko in his color scheme and build really makes him feel impressive. However, Fuuko herself is definitely the highlight here. Not only is she brimming with a confidence that the girl from the beginning of the series wouldn’t have even dreamed of having, her hair is actually highlighted with the pink and blue of the series’ iconic paint splotch imagery, and the effect is gorgeous
On a lesser note, this is also the first time we see Nico’s color scheme in his younger years, and the strained lilac hair we’re used to is now a deeper purple. I don’t know if there was a way that Tozuka could have carried that effect over in black and white, but man, this really makes it clear how much younger Nico is here than in the previous Loop
Fuuko approaches the ring with her teammates playing the role of her coach and backup, with Nico specifically wearing an eyepatch as a reference to Danpei Tange, the coach from Ashita no Joe. Once again following translator David Evelyn pays off!
Nico notes that the best strategy for fighting Void is to evade until he runs out of stamina, which, coupled with his “peek-a-boo” fighting style, is a clear reference to Mike Tyson whom Void’s major inspiration of Street Fighter’s Balrog is based on
The announcer very explicitly refers to Fuuko as a man, which at first might seem jarring, but it’s actually because of Nico’s memory control device; because intergender matches are prohibited in professional boxing, the world at large, and most notably the sponsors need to believe that Fuuko is a man. Naturally, Void can see Fuuko for who she is, but he’s already agreed to the match anyway, so it doesn’t really matter to him
Fuuko hits Void with a one-inch punch, which due to its origins in Chinese martial arts, Void identifies it as a kenpo technique, indicating that he’s likely familiar with a variety of fighting styles and not just necessarily American boxing. Kenpo itself is derived from the Chinese quanfa, which I believe is a pretty generic term, but basically it means that Fuuko is using a Chinese or Chinese-inspired technique rather than say a Japanese karate or jujutsu technique, most likely learned from fighting Feng
Likely because she had used the same technique on Void in their first encounter, Void seems unaffected this time, despite Fuuko knowing from practicing on Nico that it’s effective at targeting an opponent’s organs. Poor Nico, suffering traumatic intestinal damage just as a guinea pig
The group gears up for Void to get hit with a wave of Unluck, only to be disappointed when nothing happens. Even when facing down a barrage, Fuuko insists on dodging so as not to accidentally activate Unluck
The first round ends and Void takes notice that Fuuko is hiding her ace, which her team chastises her for while also taking care of her. Ichico gives Fuuko some water and Nico rubs a copious amount of Vaseline on her face, which is funny cus I don’t even think she got hit in the face, so it’s not like she needs to stop any bleeding yet
Fuuko explains that she won’t use Unluck until Void becomes a Negator because that would potentially cut the final match of his career short, and she would much rather he go out on a high note. I imagine that this would not only help him to leave boxing behind without any regrets, but it would also be helpful in building a rapport between them, which I believe I mentioned a few chapters ago was an important aspect of Fuuko’s leadership style. She wants Void to respect her, so a humiliating defeat would only serve to prove she’s stronger than him and potentially build resentment. Letting him fight to his heart’s content and have a great time, on the other hand, would make him much more loyal to Fuuko and the Union’s goals. The way I’m wording it kind of makes it sound manipulative, but what I’m trying to convey is that she’s trying to be his friend, not his boss, and her ability to understand what’s important to other people strongly facilitates that approach
Fuuko gets more serious and breaks out one of Feng’s Shin Hakkyoku moves, the Lashing Step Cannon, only to be countered with a barrage, pushing her to the ropes. As Fuuko slumps against the ropes, Void dejectedly asks the referee to start the count, sad that the match seems to have ended, only for Fuuko to declare that she wants the best match possible and launch herself at him using the tension of the ropes
Void sees how haggard Fuuko is and can tell that she doesn’t really have the stamina to keep going, and instead is being kept in the game by sheer grit. Because of this, he declares that she’s the “best at being a boxer” out of all of his opponents, and lunges
In this moment, Void gains Unavoidable and Fuuko is forced to freeze. Void panics, worried that the match he was just having such a blast with is going to end with what should be an easily avoidable punch, and lands his strike right on Fuuko’s cheek. Considering that this is the punch that killed Ed in the previous Loops and that Fuuko is not trained to take a punch like this, I think that Void may have slightly altered the path of his punch in his panic, cus if that had hit her in the temple it definitely would have killed her. Her ponytail and her mouth guard get punched out and Fuuko is even sent flying, I have to figure it felt like she was getting hit by a car
Now that Void has become a Negator, Fuuko asks Gina to catch her with Unchange, allowing her to throw herself back into the action and landing a body blow on Void. Through a bloody crazed smile, Fuuko declares that this is now Negator Boxing, meaning that now she’s willing to start using Unluck
Also, props to Tozuka for drawing a woman getting so utterly brutalized. I think a lot of artists would shy away from that type of thing, but Fuuko’s bleeding from the mouth, her eye is almost swollen shut, there’s a huge bruise covering half her face...and she’s still got a huge smile on her face. Fuuko’s no stranger to this kind of thing, with her bloody nose in chapter 1, but this elevates it so much higher. I’m almost worried about how she’s going to look during the final battle
It’s interesting that Nico had said that Fuuko needed Unluck to even the odds, but the reality is that Unluck itself so massively outclasses simple boxing in terms of damage output that refusing to use it was actually a handicap for Void’s benefit, not the other way around. It’s only when Void is in possession of Unavoidable that the fight truly becomes even, as now it’s a battle between Unluck + Shin Hakkyoku and Unavoidable + boxing
How this match will evolve from here is anyone’s guess, so here’s mine; Fuuko’s Unluck will manifest with the ropes flinging Void directly into Fuuko’s fist, flinging Fuuko into one of Void’s openings, the ropes breaking when Void hits them, a light(s) falling on Void from the scaffolding, THE SCAFFOLDING falling on Void, and ultimately the bell going off at the least opportune moment for Void in one round, possibly the final round
I’m sure someone who’s more familiar with boxing could see more possibilities for how this goes, but those are my predictions. I think those all may be a little too straightforward for Tozuka, but boxing is pretty restrictive in its setting, so I can’t really see any other way for it to go aside from meteors, which I don’t think Tozuka would want to use here. Honestly, shockingly mundane things like those would actually be really exciting developments in a boxing match, I think, and I’m sure it’s more about the execution than the idea anyway
The fight is really heating up, and I’m glad that since I accidentally waited a few days to post this that it’ll only be a couple more until we get to see where it goes. I wonder if it’ll be resolved in this coming chapter or if it’ll spill over one more...

Top 5 favorite Ashita no Joe characters (best anime ever)
This list is also kinda hard to make because there only like 6 or 7 important AnJ characters so I feel bad leaving some out but this is my list
5. Jose Mendoza
Even though Jose is the final battle in AnJ he just is not as good as some of Joe’s other opponents (does not mean I don’t like him though) and also his fight is the second best fight in the whole series
4. Danpei
At first I hated Danpei because how he treated Joe but as the series went on I started to like him more and more.
3. Carlos Rivera
Carlos is such a good character that my only problem with him is that you don’t see him that much and also because when he comes back it made me extremely sad
2. Joe Yabuki
I have heard alot of people drop this series because of how mean Joe is at the beginning which is fair but the further you get into the show the better he becomes because he slowly changes in the show that you don’t notice it which I have never seen from any other main character.
1. Rikiishi Toru
Rikiishi is both the perfect character and the perfect rival, in no other show have I seen a rival character handled as good as Rikiishi is and especially with his final fight with Joe and all that was leading up to it and what happened after helped make him the best character
#ashita no joe#joe yabuki#rikiishi#carlos rivera#jose mendoza#danpei tange#thanks for the ask!!!#also if you have not watched ashita no joe you should
