by Mitsuru Adachi
Satoyama Katsuki and his best friend Kawakami Kyouta, both age 15, enrolls in Mizutani Boxing Gym to get close to their tomboyish crush, Mizutani Katsuki, whose father owns it. However, Satoyama soon finds out that she is distant from her father. Worse, it turns out that she hates boxing. In a sparring match, everyone including Mizutani soon discovers Satoyama's hidden yet unpolished skill in boxing. Satoyama soon learns that Mizutani is really in love with boxing, but disdains it because its a man's sport of which she cannot join. Mizutani then takes it upon herself to be Satoyama's trainer/manager to reach the championship belt. Satoyama complies to be closer to his crush. As the story progresses, we soon find out that Satoyama has a hidden past and lineage, one that would give him the necessary skill and talent to be a legendary oriental pro-boxing champion.

Read the full take
Satoyama Katsuki and his best friend Kawakami Kyouta, both aged fifteen, enrol in Mizutani Boxing Gym to get close to their tomboyish crush, Mizutani Katsuki, whose father owns the gym. The premise is a comic sports romance in which two boys train hard, mostly to impress a girl who is far tougher than they expected.The strength is the energy. The boxing matches are bright and lively, and the friendship between the two boys is funny and warm. Mizutani's toughness adds a fresh twist.The weaknesses are about the long run. The matches can repeat, and the romance is a comic thread that stays mostly in the background. Readers wanting a serious boxing drama may find it light.Recommended for readers who enjoy lively sports comedies with a romantic streak. Expect a bright, energetic read that is best enjoyed in steady doses.
