Kumi has a new swimsuit and wants to show it off at the beach with Ippo, and he's very much down for it.
Also, we're 1429 chapters in, and we're finally seeing Mashiba's backstory, with a little bit of Kumi's. A little late, but I'll take it.
It was also nice to see that Mashiba is evolving as a fighter. He's coming up with his own counters for the title match.
