Fighting Spirit - S01

はじめの一歩 Rising , Fighting Spirit: Rising, Hajime no Ippo 3
Japanese Featherweight Champion Makunouchi Ippo has defended his title belt once more with the help of his devastating signature move: the Dempsey Roll. But new challengers keep coming, all claiming to have an answer for the move that has crushed so many of his opponents. Will Ippo be able to rise to the challenge, or will his pride crush him before he finds out what it really means to be strong? Meanwhile, his Kamogawa Gym teammate Aoki Masaru is just a hop, skip, and a Frog Punch away from claiming his own belt, ready to face the Japanese Lightweight Champion. Hajime no Ippo: Rising continues Ippo's quest to become stronger, with the same cast of lovable dimwits from Kamogawa Gym putting their bodies and hearts on the line to make it in the harsh world of professional boxing. With a will of iron, Ippo steps into the ring once again.
