Happy 100k views on this Ashita no Joe project! Thank you for everyone that spent their time with this long time passion project of mine! It's been a while but I assure you that I'm in the process of delivering more quality content for you guys so stay tuned for my next video coming soon!
As for some concerns I've seen from the comments, let me address them quickly here:
"Music is too loud"
I've taken note of this and will be more careful with the audio mixing for future videos moving forward. For now, I've hired a CC editor to encode english subtitles in this video for you guys so you could understand what I was saying in some parts of the video
"What is the music playing at X part"
I've told my CC editor to include as much of the titles of the OSTs used in the subs, but just to be safe, let me add the titles in this comment as well!
-AnJ OP 2
-Many Rivers to Cross by Jimmy Cliff
-Rikishi's Theme
-REMEMBER JOE
Other than that, thank you for so many kind comments and support in the comment section below! I will definitely choose a handful of comments that are my most favorites to the next video. Thank you so much and let's all strive for a better tomorrow!
ASHITA NO JOE JUST GOT LICENSED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will u be uploading again1??
Correction !
Vice chief editor of Shonen Magazine : Teruo MIYAHARA
The Americans have Balboa, the Japanese have Joe of Tomorrow. Strange how separated worlds can have similar heartfelt, timeless and yet never ceases to be inspiring stories.
One of the few iconic animanga that change people's lives by how inspiring, realistic and authentic it is. It almost has a life of it's own. Joe Yabuki lives within all of us, right?
Honestly, I wish I could go out like Joe did.
@@cyberpunkfalangist2899 me too man, me too... dying for something you love or doing what you love, one can only dream
@@forgetfulstrangerI don't u will have the guts to do that
U need a certain amount of selfishness to abandon everything
Joe yabuki in his fight abandoned his women yoko,
His foster father coach,
His best friend forgot his name
And the kids who looked upto joe as hero
Joe had that guts to abandon those things
Ironically we doesn't possess that much of a
Steel heart of a man
I know, right? A pure death, a warrior's death. I don't know if you fight, but there really is a certain kind of euphoria that you can only get in a good fight.@@forgetfulstranger
@@adityannair6823 yeah looking up to Joe as the pinnacle of masculinity is not the point but you do you
When people talk about the extreme behavior of online fans, I remember that back in the day a funeral was held for a fictional character. Shout outs to Ashita no Joe for being that incredible
Joe has to be one of fictions most influential characters ever.
He is the best anime sports mc of all time
I love how at the time people of japan found their role model to reflect their own
Yabuki Joe changed my life, ashita no joe will always remain the most important piece of media I've ever consumed, let's all burn out until nothing remains, nothing but pure white ash...
Well said, kimura
Just finished watching AnJ 2 months ago. No other piece of media has really impacted as much as this show alone. Joe as a character is far from perfect, he isn't a conventional "idol" nor a "hero". Joe in the beginning of the series is a rowdy delinquent. He's untrustworthy, conventionally stupid, and extremely violent on some occasions. But as the series goes on, as misfortune after misfortune strikes Joe, he grows. He develops a real sense of morale, you end up really respecting him. His actions end up motivating you. Seeing Joe start from nothing, go to hell, and having a satisfying ending for his own character is beautiful
I remember my dad giving me the entire series of Ashta no joe on my birthday. Amazing manga series.
I don't say this lightly, but of all the anime video essayists that pop up all the time, this video was very well structured and made. Thank you for actually having something to say and inform us on. I'm wishing you the best!
Over 50 years old and still as great as ever.
We will always remember you, Joe.
Thank you for covering Ashita no Joe in depth. I read the translated version of the manga in the 90s and would never thought that it was written in the 60s. That's how timeless the manga is.
If someone who hasn't yet watched the anime comes around, I urge you to do so. It's a work of art that incapsulate Japan from those years. It's not a boxing story but the story of a kid who ends up boxing, it's packed with lessons (life, death, dreams and their cost) and - something modern mangas lack - consequences. It also offers some of the most beautiful songs in the field, seriously. The first season can be an hard watch because it has all the tropes from the old style but season two is vintage, just peak animation. Just know that the story hits hard, harder than Joe's cross-counter move. Cheers.
Japan's manga industry needs another Ashita no Joe. This was THE manga that kickstarted the economic boom of the 1980s. This manga released and echoed all the frustration and individuality inherent to a generation. It was THE manga that the youth of the time, who felt so disenfranchised get to their feet and give the middle finger to the old fogeys so that they could take the country and push it with or without them. Sadly, the generation raised by Ashita no Joe has fallen back on the culture that held THEM down and is keeping anything resembling Ashita no Joe for this generation and the last down with compliant, by-the-books stories like Konosuba and the horrible Isekai sub-sub-genre. There needs to be a story that rouses the youth, but instead subliminal pacifying messages in modern anime and manga exist to keep men down. Notice the facsimile of protagonists, the "literary reward matrix" in story progression. It's all there to keep them passive and adherent. It's borderline depressing. The color and individuality of Japan is now just a product without a soul, whose gears are turned by routine and the lie that your worth is tied to the society instead of what you decide for yourself.
Ironically, the generation that was raised by Joe has forgotten what Joe taught them.
I would say in terms of influential joe gave neck to neck competition to captain tsubasa
Well
Boomers, am I right 🤷🏾♂️.
why did you mention konosuba like they can be compared. ruined your whole message
@@skettlu2344Konosuba is the greatest thing on Earth.
@@arnowisp6244 My guy... I don't think that's what anyone meant
Most important piece of media I’ve ever read/watched, changed my life for the better.
So nostalgic. Tommorrow's Joe was one of the first anime I ever watched. It aired dubbed in Mexico in the 80s along with Mazinger Z. Thanks for the vid, it really took me back.
Toei’s Mazinger Z has a Mexican Spanish re-dub with a newly current cast which has dubbed the characters in Mazinger Z infinity.
It’s just loosely based on a much more ambitious manga, whose original Shueisha run has only been completed for both French and Italian markets a couple of years back.
You definitely did the series justice with this video. Joe is my favorite manga character of all time, and I'm happy to see a video talk about the series this long after. Thank you for making it!
To this day no character feels as alive as Joe. I revisit him every few months to remind myself what all of our personal fights are about.
The work that created Battle Shounen, with struggles, effort and triumph, proved to be deeper than many Seinen, which is an entire demographic not a genre but which is always played against the Shounen and the Battle Shounen genre, and Ashita no Joe is deeper and more realistic and cruel than many of these Seinens Yes, these stories have a lot of fighting, as if we didn't have Battle Seinen focused on beatings and as if fighting wasn't a deep element of character development, it's through fighting that these characters develop that Joe evolves and devolves, but always moves forward even if it costs his life, that to me is more mature than regular Seinens fans can realize.
Wow! I talked to my younger cousin Hana about Tomorrow’s Joe, but she cannot watch it until she becomes a teenager.
As a manga fan, I do want a spiritual successor to Tomorrow’s Joe as well. Because me and my fellow Gen Zeds aren’t happy about the overwhelming lack of powerfully good youth aimed shows this decade and before that.
@@SlapstickGenius23 It had to have a modern anime but retain the classic visual style and make people cry once again in time.
Probably the best video about Ashita no Joe I've ever watched, thank you so much!
well done mini doc. I felt like I was watching a great modern production like one could catch on broadcast TV. multiple times it gave me goosebumps
I enjoyed the video a lot. Lots of detailed knowledge that you present in a suspensful way. I have watched the anime but had no idea that it is this HUGE of a legacy.
i dont think i ever wouldve watched a video like this before but it was really well put together, great vid!
thank you for introducing me to this manga, i will definitely check it out
this was very well produced video, this channel is super underrated
I'm glad you enjoyed it and I'm happy that I got you interested in Ashita no Joe! I really appreciate your support!
Favourite anime of all time. Glad to see people talking about it!
this realy is a great video, i thought you were a massive channel because of the clean delivery and smooth editing but goddamn this is underrated, i truly hope you make more videos and ill try to share this with every friend that would enjoy this topic, much love from jordan
Amazing research, amazing presentstion, amazing video overall. Insta-subbed. Thanks for doing this, because this video is like a eulogy of AnJ for the older western fanbase and a 'why-you-should-watch' video for the newer gen. Kudos 👏
Love you usage of the csm soundtrack. It feels great in this video and i personally love it sm
Ashita no Joe really inspired me to take boxing training seriously and still to this day is one my all time favourite anime.
Great video about a legendary series. I’d love to see more!
Thank you for the awesome video! I didnt know Joe had this massive cultural impact. Made me love it even more!
I discovered your channel with this video and wow ! Your sense of timing and editing is great and it really enhances the story portrayed !!
That’s honestly really cool that they have those statues set up. Makes me want to go to Japan just to see them now! I haven’t watched the anime, but this is a great video of giving you the background to the anime. Thank you for making this.
patiently waiting for your next video
👏👏 wonderfully made vídeo about the iconic Ashita no Joe. It’s amazing to learn how this story came to life. I read the manga many years ago and it touched me so much that changed me. Now I work hard today to become tomorrow’s Joe
This video is great. I love your editing and music selection. I've only heard more about the anime and how revolutionary it was for the medium so hearing about the creation of the manga and how the story influenced Japan as a whole is amazing. It just makes me more mad that there isn't a high quality rerelease of the original anime series, only the second part and a recap movie. But after watching this, I'll try even harder to find it in high quality somewhere and start from the beginning of Joe's journey!!!
You know you can watch the 70s anime online right? I really recommend it I havent watched the 80s one yet but 70s is my favorite anime of all time all ready and I honestly
Can't imagine 80s being better but everyone says it is
@@awanada5555 actually, Discotek distributes both Tomorrow’s Joe recap movies in North America.
I found it online in perfect hd quality
Great video, I love how you took your time with the pacing!
I'm glad someone did a video about how ashita no joe impacted Japan during it's time great video!
I still find it so insane that communists hijacked a plane because of ashita no joe 😭
Cant wait for more of your stuff💯💯
I've heard so much about this manga. Especially once I started reading hajime no ippo. The only thing about this mangas legacy that saddens me is that it is slowly being forgotten
amazing, thank you for this great video
Hey Man, whatever doubts you have if any they'll still be there
but just know that you put the video out and you began the journey into YT.
This is a great introspective video and I really learned something new here. Keep it up.
Amazing video. You have a lot of potential for sure can’t wait to see what you make tomorrow
Whoever you are Smear, continue making videos as you immerse the the watcher with such well made mini-doc.
Thanks for this great video, I love Ashita no Joe
Masterpiece of a video.
This video was amazing!! Man I even cried watching this! I've never heard or seen this manga and I cant wait to get started on it. Dropping a sub too!
Amazing video.The ending really hit hard for me.
Great video!
this video was great! hope to see more
Great video man, i can really sense the love and soul it went on this video.
Damn this was a good video! Thanks for making this masterpiece!
You sir have a new subscriber. Great storytelling
This video saved my life
Thank you
Thank you
Awesome video! I'll be picking up the manga now :D
Very well made video, good job dude 👌
This was really awesome!
I adore Ashita no Joe. It's my favorite anime of all time. I discovered it after watching Megalobox, another fantastic anime series that was a spinoff of Ashita no Joe. It's amazing in its own right and it's definitely worth watching if you like this series.
Joe Yabuki is my favorite anime protagonist of all time. He feels like a real, living, breathing, feeling person, not just a character. ALL the characters feel like real people. When Rikiishi died I felt like a part of myself died. I was so invested in these characters and their lives. I wanted to see them succeed more than anything. But the worst gut punch to my heart was the fate of Carlos. Death almost seemed like a mercy in comparison to what Carlos went through. And the ending for Joe was just as tragic yet oddly satisfying. Joe went out on his own terms and it was beautifully bittersweet. This anime made me cry more than One Piece did, and that's saying a lot! I remember Joe ❤
Also, 6:44 Osomatsu Kun!! I love that show too lol
Please make more joe videos ! Deff subbed and your video is well put together ! I hope to see you grown!

I really like the way you tell this story.
I absolutely love this video, i have a playlist with my most favorite video essays. this is the 12th
Really shows how lonely combat sports can be
I have never read this manga, or do i know this manga, but the way you narrate just how influental and amazing Ashita no Joe is, i was convinced that i have to read it, even though it's really hard for me to have access to it, i have to someday read it as i was really inspired to somehow...recreate it, and after all of that i can't say enough word of how moved i am and how i shed a bit of tear watching the narration, keep it coming man, i would love to hear some more! Godspeed~!
Try mangasee if you're still having trouble.
Read from left to right in volume 1, right to left in other volumes since volume 1 is flipped. In short, read in a sequence that makes sense.
@@kimitohanahala8674 thanks a lot for the suggestion man! I'll try it right awayy
@@samasora9398You can read it off mangadex as well; the site has a really neat UI.

For me this manga just shows us when we were a kid that we are always wanting to be. And often be kinda sad if we were shouted
Ashita No Joe - Interesting title worth checking out considering its influence on Manga in general.
