The story is about how and why a guy goes from a worker at a dead-end job to becoming a boxer.
10 Volumes (Complete)






man oh man, i thought this is a sport martial art manga, until i need to go through 30+ deppressing chapters until the MC start boxing.
i'm an introvert but i can say this MC is suckass.
i'll still reccomend this to read though because : (from 87 chaps)
still, about the main girl:
the girl is very logical, normally, any girl wants to has bf that's looks cool, rich, or/and strong.
the aftereffect is another story. i'll slap that bitch when knew she still love the aoyama after pregnant and dumped
I had this at 9, but just changed it to 10. Its getting more and more interesting. I like the balance between the moods in the story and cant wait to read more. The style is really original in my opinion.
lol
but kengo is really good. i like i am a hero more than this, but it's like comparing something i like, like donuts, to something i like a lot, like bacon. they're both good, and if you think about it, sometimes one is better than the other.
but this guy lets himself get into so many shitty situations it's really gut wrenching. it's a good story though, and kengo's drawing style is pretty endearing somehow. i like the way he draws mouths all big.
he's really talented with contour, and there's a lot of detail in his artwork. definitely not a waste of time but really makes your feelings wrench, and makes you kinda let out a crooked laugh at how terrible this guy is. especially if you're a dude. i'd be lying if it didn't flash me back to when i pulled all the wrong moves when i was super socially retarded too.
There is not enough chapters to rate this series yet. The two people below me know what they are talking about since they read the raws. Anyways, this manga has potential i guess and i hope some group picks this up.
It's pure misery porn, the only happy parts in the manga are a setup for the soul crushing event that will succeed it.
this is drivel. white knight fantasy, curb your incelthusiasm. like the popups you see on the sides of website that promise your life will be fixed by one fix. it's Conan or Elrich but now you're a modern loser worker. can't even get through the pity party without horrid fatphobic misogyny.
This is where the arguably interesting author started to show writing chops but the work is very uneven as the exceptionally pathetic cast becomes the opposite of believable over time. As if their only joy in life is to keep making each other miserable and the transition from the first to the second half feels forced. The series is undeniably a fetish piece on top and the last volume will decide if the read was worth it or not. His later I Am a Hero (7,5/10) is worth it though and so are some of the shorts in Tokkaten (7,5/10).
Update: The ending of the 2nd arc is complete trash, so the manga ultimately went nowhere.. twice. That´s why i just can´t recommend it in the end. The author thankfully got better later.
This is so bad, you can't stop reading it. By bad, I don't mean that story is bad, but the things that main character goes through is so bad. It actually makes me outraged at some points. In some sense, I can't even say he went through them. Most of the time, he was a part of the cause for his troubles thanks to his loser personality. Just when you think he will finally start redeeming himself, he gets himself into a worse hole. I can't imagine how this is going to end, but I don't think it can end well. I will give it points for making it a compelling read though.
I gotta say, this picture of a losers life is crushing me inside.
Can't say Im too sympathetic with the main character, but geez, what the crap. Im hoping this goes the 'nerdy guy buffs up' route, because this is seriously depressing... the guy doesn't even have a single friend!
I do have to say its keeping me coming back to see what happens next though.
This is my first time posting/talking about a manga on the internet, I read the first 31 chapters of this manga and skipped through the rest until chapter 53. Like many people who wrote about how she was a whore and how she treated Tanishi was bad, I was really upset for what happened to him and in rage with her (almost cried myself to sleep that night)
But the next day after some serious thinking I realised Tanishi was to blame for the events that occurred, all she wanted was some one to be with and stand by her side, yes she dated Ass hole Aoyoma and slept with him but if Tanishi had simply apologised to her for what happened with the whore Shiho that wouldn't have happened, and I believe she slept with the rest of ass-hole Aoyoma's ass hole co-workers was because she was still trying to find some one and get over Tanishi and ass hole Aoyoma which was a bad deceison for her.
When Tanishi found out she was pregnant and she had the abortion he shouldve been by her side trying to help her to get over ass hole Aoyoma and trying to get her to be his girlfriend instead of being a idiot and trying to fight.(he could've just punched him one day while he is out working and they run into each other)
I think she made the right decision to move back home cause she realised what was gong to become of her life if she stayed in the city and that was the last time Tanishi could've got her, I don't think she was that much of a whore she just wanted to have oral sex with him so he could stay with her, she had a devastated look on her face when he said no. In the end she was still looking for some one. (also out of everybody ass hole Aoyoma was probably the one that seemed like he would stay by her side that's why she probably asked about him)
Women are very complicated to understand, I don't know if what i said was relevant but I just wanted people to see her side of it may not have been correct but its just how I feel about it.
P.s. Does anyone know if she appears back in the manga if so could you tell me. again this is my first post
