I wouldn't hate Ippo in this scene if it wasn't obvious that Kumi liked him in the first place. Hell, I'll probably never confess to my crush either by the end of the school year, so I'm not judging Ippo for not being confident. -But, Kumi literally _asked_ him to say what was on his mind. She gave him hints that she knew what was coming, and wanted to hear it from his mouth directly. I know I'm socially inept Ippo, but c'mon man 😩😞
Umm if I was a fucking boxer that’s a damn champion with nearly a undefeated record and my crush had asked me to go out on dates multiple times and even invited me to her house and shit multiple times it’s obvious she would love me and anybody would confess in this situation because the chances of acceptance are higher.
I like ippo, and i’m not a charismatic guy at all, but damn these scenes piss me off. I wouldn’t blame ippo but he’s getting the most obvious hints in the world. It’s only a matter of time till Kumi gets fed up with it and lose interest
I think what all of you are missing is that ippo has an internalised belief that kumi doesn’t like him. He wouldn’t act on the hints he knows are there because of this
@@kevinc.cucumber3697 It's the typical storywriting trope where the writers feel like they have to keep the juice going, but honestly there NEEDS to be a payoff eventually! You can't just keep the viewers in suspense forever! At some point they gotta take the relationship to the next level. Cus eventually even the viewers are gonna get tired of it just like the girl.
Ippo was falling love with her in the snow, because he’s a championship boxer fighter until he tell her saying I loved her after really loved her to much! She’s upset with love!
Uncomparable. Rocky's social skills were way above Ippo's. Rocky talked in street language, but expressed his feelings freely and Adrian was the shy and awkward one.
*SPOILER ALERT* Just so you know, Hajime No Ippo is currently at Chapter 1374 in manga and yes Ippo still haven't confessed Kumi about his feelings even though they share the same feelings for each other. His junior Manabu Itagaki has eyes for Kumi too, but didn't push it as he knows Ippo would send him to another galaxy with one punch lol.
Honestly, at this pont in the manga it feels like a super slow burn for Miyata and ippo. Lit both of them have thoughts on how would eachothers's punches would feel and Miyata in a fight literally thought of how he was the only one that hasnt felt the punches of pro boxer ippo and how lost he feels at the thought of never getting to fight him Bro, literally a man saying i love you to another man is less gay than that, jesus
@@tommymoodie2157 he is a ruthless not an idiot yet he keeps calling Ippo an idiot for being his punching bag during boxing match. At least he knows how hard a punch is after his first world match.
@@hartantoanggoro well he's face Ippo's punches so he knows punching power. Problem is that he never realized how serious the world stage boxers were. THe way i see it. Sendo and Volg were the only ones who were prepared for the world stage when they got there.
@@TheRealRaiii ippo loses to a jobber thinking he's punch drunk so he retires and Kumi is happy about it. Everyone wants ippo to come back but he becomes a trainer and second for sendo. Kumi and Ippo sort of have a relationship but not really, so the same shit as 20 years ago.
@@Wellgee Kumi is such a fine girl, Ippo really is just a huge disappointment if all of this is true. I'm not asking him to turn into Rance. All the opportunities created by Takamura and the boys WASTED!
I guess but on the other hand it was his on him for being such a p*ssy in the end.😅 Kumi was probably thinking the same thing. Let me tell you--it's better to confess and be ready to get rejected. P*ssying out the last minute and your crush says goodbye leaves an even more bitter taste in your mouth than the first option.
Let me tell y'all--it's better to confess and be ready to get rejected. P*ssying out the last minute and your crush says goodbye leaves an even more bitter taste in your mouth than the first option.
Yeah that's what i think too you be full of regrets not doing it when you have a chance, doing it even if you get rejected is better you probably will still regret it but not as much as not doing anything
She wanted him to confess to her as well which is soo sad 🥺. (Well, it’s just not the right time for ippo yet, EVEN WHEN HE WAS ABLE TO SAY IT TO HER IN NEW CHALLENGER, but she was sleeping because of the amount of beer she drank😂)
The chapters in manga still they don't get together but Kumi act like a girlfriend. It was fine but everytime Ippo talks about boxing she make a sad face for Ippo to stop. Actually I'm kinda blaming her for preventing Ippo to bo go back again in the ring.
@@AnimeLover-ln7ji even you will prevent someone you love if there is potential of them getting hurt badly, author took a realistic approach here . Kumi's character is written beautifully it's so realistic that fans hate because they want ippo back in ring but there is possibility of being brain dead in boxing and kumi is nurse and she doesn't want ippo to get hurt or something worse
Yeah, kumi is a NURSE not a girlfriend.. she interfered in Ippo's decision when she's not even confessing.. tsk! And even talking about boxing she forbid it ? The heck !
What can be said, the VA reference with Kumi's original would indeed work better with later chapters. That certain diclonius queen came off as pretty possessive.
It's kind of like whether or not season 4 will happen, some people said it's confirmed but there are some what I searched up saying it was uncertain... Which is it? Just like whether or not Ippo and Kumi will finally bang (with the risk of Ryo killing Ippo).
There has been confirmed continuation, but it is highly likely at some point due to the popularity of Hajime No Ippo. Spoiler free, but don’t expect too much romantic development when/if the next season comes…
I assume most people are reading the manga, but I'll still space this out for spoilers regardless. Kumi is absolutely terrible for Ippo. After his retirement, all she wants is to make him forget about boxing and live a life spending time with her. Sure, it's understandable, her brother is an active boxer, and she's terrified of something bad happening to not one, but two important people in her life, but on the other hand, she can't control her brother. No one can. But she *can* control the meek and trusting Ippo instead. The way she acted to Shinoda, the way she got Taihei and his friend to spy on Ippo, the way she takes offense at anything that would disrupt the false utopia she's trying to fabricate reeks of an extremely toxic relationship, and has all the markings of an abuser. There are other women interested in Ippo, and I really hope that if any of them grab the bull by the horns, it's Mari Iimura. She respects Ippo, has a contrasting personality that could help him bring out his more mature mindsets more consistently, instead of holding him back with passiveness and indecision like Kumi does, and wants the best for him relative to his own personal choices, whether it's to return to the ring, or to stay absent. tl;dr: Kumi is abusive, and as long as she stays in the picture, Ippo won't ever grow. Mari is best girl.
I agree , Mari is best girl since she's more mature and supportive of Ippo , Nanako ( Itagaki's sister) is also a decent choice although she is younger than him but has the same level of support. I think that the mangaka will have Kumi change her ways and realize that she can't hold Ippo back , or give up and let Mari or Nanako have a shot at it. Though the man himself needs to realize these things , otherwise he'll end up like a sad puppy , not noticing that there are better alternatives.
I don't think it's morikawa's intent to have Kumi act like this, but I agree. She needs to support Ippo and his dream, and not supporting when it's so obvious that Ippo should be boxing and is meant to do it is selfish.
This scene is painful, but Kumi really is an awful girlfriend. All she wants to do is control him. Both Mari and Nanako would be better for him. They would actually cheer him on and help him have more confidence in their own unique ways. Kumi is just, nothing.
@@johnremizeztomilloso158 I'm pretty sure the girl's sibling is the big brother, the one that asked if there was any dinner. He is just joking, probably of how slow Ippo is with her, he might as well just date the big brother.
Spoiler alert ⚠️ After the anime ended I read all the way to the newest chapter, and they aren't even couples. For those of you who are curious, did they end up together certainly not. That's the only spoiler I would imply, the rest u should check it out by yourself. Cuz if I wrote the answers right here, u will end up hating the anime.
Nobody is going to agree with me, but this whole Kumi thing with Ippo is probably my only complaint about the show. It’s just way too dragged out and feels so out of place in a boxing show. I wouldn’t have a problem with it tho overall if Ippo actually confessed.
It's too bad she doesn't really have any friends who will outright tell her that her man's a doof and that she's gonna hafta be the one to take the leap first. She ain't exactly much better than him in this case. They are almost too alike in that regard.
