Hmm either Morikawa had his boxer a match or he's sick and now just able to work on the series again

I get that drawing manga is backbreaking work, but 15 pages being used to throw two punches and edge readers with "one more punch" sucks. There could've been a conclusion this chapter without extra pages or a lack of drama. It's like he hasn't decided himself who's going to win yet. The standing count or double down or final punches next month are gonna be a slog.

What do you mean it's judgment time? What is the referee doing? "He's got a pulse! Keep fighting!"

The ref is almost saying, fuck it, unless someone have permanent brain damage no one is getting out

Was re-reading chapter 1451, and just realized now that Miyata is going to fight Rosario if Mashiba loses. Sendo noticed it, and Takamura saw that. Rosario also said He would like to come back to Japan.

It's almost like a mirror to Ippo vs Gonzalez...

Morikawa gives us a lot of breaks because he loves us and wants us to receive his best effort on chapters. Imagine releasing a chapter every week as a senior like Morikawa. He can't keep up with the new talent. Morikawa wants the best for us and his neglect is a blessing❤️

Ah, MD reminding me of how pissy and whiny folks can be about a decades old manga release schedule. 🤣

Dumbass readers expecting consistency right, Tezuka-sama?

Would be funny as fuck if "take care of my belt for me" was a death flag and bro dies in the ring
