The title is ‘Fighting Spirit’. If you’re thinking of watching this anime you should definitely start with this one. The whole season consists of a total of 75 episodes and it will help you in a better understanding of the entire plot.

This will give you a great understanding of the characters as well. Ippo is a high school student who is bullied by the other students at his institution; however, when a professional boxer presents Ippo to the realm of boxing, his life changes.

After watching the first season, you should definitely watch the special of the franchise which is ‘Hajime No Ippo: Boxer No Kobushi’. In the franchise, there is a special episode. It describes the tale of Takamura’s beginnings in boxing. Well, watching this special will benefit you in understanding the rest of the upcoming story. I’m not going to offer you any spoilers, so just watch it and enjoy it

Here’s to Hajime No Ippo: Champion Road, another franchise special. On April 18, 2003, the television movie Hajime no Ippo: Champion Road premiered. This special is more of a fitting end to such a lengthy anime. You should probably watch this after watching the first special and then proceed with the rest of the franchise.

Though the Champion Road was a fitting ending it’s also the beginning of a different narrative. It’s more of a fitting end to such a lengthy anime. ‘Hajime No Ippo: Mashiba Vs. Kimura’ is a one-hour OVA that is absolutely worth watching and a must-see. So, because it’s an OVA, don’t think twice and go right in. You shouldn’t miss this one.

Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger is the second season of the franchise, and you’ve already watched the first. And indeed the anime isn’t completed yet, so there’s probably more to follow. There are 26 episodes in the second season.

Many people advocate watching this season after watching the first, but you will have a better experience if you watch all of the specials and OVA.

This is the third season of the entire franchise. There will be no specials or OVAs between the second and third seasons, so you can hop right into this one. There are no more seasons or specials afterward. This is the anime’s final chapter, and you will thoroughly appreciate it.
