    I did get a very good chuckle about the look away technique when I saw it in the manga.

    Is there any truth to the Takamura retinal detachment concerns?

    The thing brought up during the Eagle fight? I don't think it's ever brought up again. If anything they can just ignore it ever happened. Like after Rocky 2.

    Later on he kind of stops it abit when he finds out that Miyata won't fight him so that he can fight RBJ cause "OH MY GOD HIS DAD BEAT MY DAD" but I imagine he'd still let Miyata pop his cherry

    They did really well with the anime adaptation of the "look away".

    I should have stopped reading just before the most recent match took place in the manga, now it seems I'll be waiting forever for it to continue.

    Between the back to back Ippo episodes and the amazing Space Bros episode, tonight has been fantastic for anime.

    Big LOL at the anti-anti-anti-Dempsey Roll, from Takamura

    In the intro, does the Kamogawa shadow seem out of place to anyone else (When Ippo is throwing the punch and Kamogawa shadow figure thing is next to him?)

    They skipped the young Kamogawa ark in the anime; wouldn't have even had any clue had I not read the manga.

    Probably not the best place to ask but any news on the manga? Cancelled, Hiatus, people just not translating?

    Just really slow translations. Mangastream will usually dump a few chapters at a time.

    And considering how dragged out the fight chapters tend to be, I'm okay with them doing scanlations in bunches.

    Edit: Coincidentally, here's the raw of the new chapter, which happens to be 6 pages long

    A bump for the latest chapter. It's a raw, but considering it's a match, it's pretty easy to follow.

    Here it is.

    I post it because (super spoiler)

    Spoiler: show
    Ippo got KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT!!!!

    Seems like the Hien to me honestly if I'm remembering the move correctly only he didn't pull back, just changing direction midpunch. This will probably be only be good for 1 down though, this fight seems to be all about Ippo using his experience to get stronger, and he's faced both the Flicker Jab + Hien in regards to deceiving lefts.

    It's hard to tell without knowing what's said in all the dialogue but from what I gathered, it just seemed like he got blindsided by a hit to the temple that he didn't see or expect at all. Could be a hien'esk move, or just a solid hook that connected perfectly because he baited Ippo with his right hand. This fight in particular has been all about solid realistic boxing technique so far. Absolutely fantastic compared to the Ippo fights in recent memory.

    I'm sure you're right though, I mean after so many years of this manga coming out week after week, I can't see Ippo losing at this point.
