Naoya Ogawa's MAJOR COMEBACK! He will be Ippo's final opponent! Chapter 1516+
While Ippo made quick work of Naoya, Naoya may be secretly making a comeback ever since he lost to Ippo...He has learned every technique ever used in the series. He has made his own Dempsey Roll: Look Away version where he looks away after throwing a hook in the figure-8 motion. He is faster than Miyata, smarter than Ricardo, clinches better than Kobashi, has a mother and father, and fought and won against ten bears...After Ippo vs Miyata and Ricardo, Ippo's real challenge will begin...
You heard it here first.
Hajime no Ippo: Revolution Fami2Comic Part 1 (August 2007)
Hajime no Ippo: Revolution is a short manga series written and illustrated by Jun Iwamoto (いわもと じゅん) and printed in the Fami2Comic by Famitsu in the August 2007 issue. It is a two-part story based around the manga series' chapters 1-13. It exists as an advertisement for the Nintendo Wii video game of the same name. (Just using the description I wrote for the wiki https://ippo.fandom.com/wiki/Hajime\_no\_Ippo:\_Revolution\_Fami2Comic)
I posted this in the discord chat, but I think the subreddit might like it. Note: Only one scan exists on the internet, and it's in bad quality, I tried by best to make it black and white.
This part 1, part 2 (Final part) will posted when I finish translating/editing.
Theory: We will miss the ending of the match because Ippo had to rush to the bathroom because he had to take a leak
Ippo has been drinking a lot of water, which makes you urinate. Sendo and Ricardo will look like they are throwing the final punch at the same time, but then we see Ippo be like "oh no, I got to pee". We will then see him rush to the bathroom and piss. When he gets back, the match is already over.
We won't see what actually happens until Ippo goes back home and watches the recording.

Ippo, 80, comments on the time he obtained the world title
Look, having a world title — my father was a great father and fisherman, Kazuo Makunouchi at MFB; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Tokyo School of Fishing, very good, very smart — you know, if you're an orthodox In-Fighter, if I were an unorthodox, if, like, OK, if I fought as an unorthdox Out-Boxer, they would say I'm one of the fastest people anywhere in the world — it's true! — but when you're an orthodox In-Fighter they try — oh, do they do a number — that's why I always start off: Went to the Kamogawa gym, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, became national champion — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we're a little disadvantaged — but you look at the world title, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it's not as important as Miyata is — the world champion is so powerful; my coach explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what's going on with the four retired boxers — now it used to be three, now it's four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the fighting spirit; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven't figured that the amateurs are smarter right now than the pros, so, you know, it's gonna take them about another 150 years — but the WBA is a great organization, the WBC is a great organization, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible.
(The em dashes are in the original quote I'm parodying, it's not AI)
The gacha mobile game "Hajime no Ippo: Fighting Souls" has many images of original depictions of the characters as well as colored scenes from the manga that haven't been adapted in the anime yet nor other Ippo games.
In case you are wondering...Is the game good? Not really in my opinion, I like the art though. Is it in English? No, it is a Japanese only game, I'm not aware of any English patches. Is there a wiki page? Yes, but it is outdated, I'll update it eventually... Is Marcus Rosario colored yet? No, they probably are as confused as us how it would look in color.
