The centerpiece is a brutal war involving Ryo Mashiba. His razor-sharp Flicker Jab, the "razor punch," slices opponents apart, cementing his terror. Beneath the near-madness of his fighting lies his tangled devotion to his sister Kumi, giving the villain real depth. Watching Mashiba fight, Ippo questions whether he can survive at this level. Kimura vows revenge, and the whole Kamogawa Gym stirs toward the next battle. A weighty volume where a victor's glory and a loser's anguish exist side by side.
