Hajime no Ippo - The First Step - Ch. 1460 - The Devil's Range

He should just make out with Kumi anytime Mashiba's in danger.

The lesson weve learned throughout the series is that when the opponent starts collapsing, you back the hell off before they counter you.

The prime moment for a counter is when someone is completely sure of their victory.

So Rosario gets multiple clean hits on the head and is ok but Mashiba gets one and takes heavy damage? I don't mind the fights to be a bit exaggerated since it's a manga but then do it evenly on both sides.

Jabs and hooks aren't the same.

1) Counters in this series are always huge damage
2) Mashiba's flicker doesn't deal much damage, it's a zoning tool
3) Mashiba's always had a glass jaw. Early in the series 1 or 2 hits to the face usually dropped him
4) Rosario's an infighter and brawler, he's used to getting hit and way more used to it than Mashiba
5) Rosario's not ok. On page 7, right before he lands the counter, he's barely able to stay up. He recovered a bit while Mashiba was down.
6) A clean hook to the jaw has a way easier time knocking someone out cold than a straight.

So, Mashiba has been saved by his brocon instincts? Cause else he would have stayed down?

Come on...

Kind of? His instincts caused him to focus on Kumi and Ippo and that saved him since Ippo immediately started signaling him to get up. Mashiba was so out of it he only realized he was on the ground then.

I dunno. He said "keep your hands off her" when it was Kumi touching Ippo.

My fan theory is he cares more about Ippo than Kumi and rationalizes this by being delusional and projecting. /joke.

Ok, didn't think things through before writing my comment. I take my complains back.

Thanks for actually explaining stuff to me instead of hating like some other comments.

Yes there is one punch man spinoff.
