I fantasize about the author getting a little inspiration from works such as the Dune novels. This late into the series, readers should be empathizing rather than feeling dissociated from characters. What follows but a panel of ippo standing there with an unreadable expression. Between chapter 12, characters question ippo's choices multiple times. It always feels like the winner was decided by freak chance. You often follow 10 or more chapters of blow exchanges, there is a flashback, and one of the really beat up guys win. In matches, you rarely get insight into the opponents' competetive edges in terms of psychology and conditioning. But after 1000 episodes, the lack of clue-ins into why things are happening the way they are makes me feel more and more distant from the series. I grew up with ippo, enjoyed his growth, the slapstick and surprises.
