Well, if he's going for a takamura role, he'll also have to conquor all the weightclasses, so that's a good thing I guess.

 

[boag]

I dont know If I can handle another 1200 chapters of Ippo imparting all the shit he learned in 1200 chapters.

 

[Mogima]

@boag i don't know if morikawa george will still be alive by then.statistically speaking.

 

[boag]

@Mogima
How old is he anyway?

 

[rock41t]

I wonder is saeki will job to him too.

@boag

52 as of this year, Plus another 20+ years, yeah... No effin' way he'd be able to draw that long, being a mangaka taxes on their health, specially Weekly serializations.

Also, I want to see just the start of the Trainer-Trainee relationship, apart from that... time skip and an end.

@boag
acording to google he is 52 years old

and Shinji Mizushima is 72 years old and he's still kicking

 

[Szero5]

Holy shit

What goes around, comes around. The context is different, but please, this is just the same all over again with different roles.

 

[Beastkun]

this is interesting and all but i still want ippo to fight again.. here's hoping by teaching the new guy it makes ippo wanna return

 

[Mogima]

@boag according to google, he was born on '66.

going by the math, 52 YO.

seeing as he started ippo in '89, that means it will take until 2037?
that's not including the time when he's still making 18+ pages/ chapter.

@criscky
@Mogima
Thanks

 

[tanteiii-kun]

i hope ippo will come back as a boxer, cause if he train the yankee dude to let him fight miyata or to make him into the new champion i would be really disappointed.

 

[killermyl]

@tanteiii-kun i'm expecting something similar, something like: train him and see him become rotten as a boxer and make a comeback to take him down. And then show all his training and the new demsey, right before tokugawa died.

I don't know what Morikawa wanted after writing Ippo retiring. Did he have a plan? Were the next 200 Chapters just based on feelings and vibes? Or did bad reader feedback make him change course?

We'll probably never know, but I can't stop wondering.
