Hajime no Ippo Chapter 1431 Discussion

Between meeting Mizutani, getting into boxing and the loss to Ippo, there were also positive life changing events in Mashiba's life. Loved the backstory.





His progression from the beginning of the story to now is among the deeply moving ones in all animanga

Mashiba's flashback continues with him being released from prison to see his probation officer. He's taken to the location that he and Kumi will now live in, and he's introduced to boxing.



We see the time when he fought Miyata, and that his murderous impulses were taken down when Ippo defeated him. We also see that his probation officer passed away from health issues.



Mashiba thought himself alone, but now he has a crowd of people cheering him on. It's time to try being the champion, but it's also looking to be 50/50.

Yes, there is a boxer with those characteristics, IPPO!!!

Great chapter. I’d say it’s one of the best in a while.

Gotta love how in a single chapter we get a flashback and we come to the present yet none feels rushed at all. Also.. there's one boxer that comes in mind.. ;D

WE GOT SOME ACTION FINALLY
