Gotta give em this, I never thought that they'd actually go through with the consequences of having your entire boxing strategy being getting hammered in the head thousands of times for every one hit you give, but I guess we'll see if it really sticks

I still don't understand why Morikawa didn't end the manga here. You could even keep the rest of the volume as an epilogue.

It's not like the manga ever moves on. The story finds new things to focus on, but it teases Ippo's return every other chapter .
