Manga and Anime Differences
- The whole Shimabukuro visit to the Makunouchi Fishing Boat was cut. Consequently, Ippo's training during his visit was cut. As the training was cut, Ippo's "ultimate punch" wasn't shown.
- In the manga, it is Yagi who asks Ippo about his new fighting trunks, in the anime however, they added a completely new scene of the other Kamogawa fighters greeting Ippo before his fight and asking him about the new trunks.
- In the manga, Ippo's story arc was explained after the match with Sawamura from Ippo's mother to Kumi.
