What are some games where the main character gradually degrades and gets everyone's hopes up only to not be able to meet them and make himself look like a pathetic piece of shit?

This is so sad, I want to see Ippo win but his brain can't handle any more hits, he's already broken. He's showed every sign of major brain trauma, lost memory, poor motor skills, uncharacteristic anger, inability to hear.
It's too real for me

Just go outside.

Is Ippo going the way of Joe?

where can i continue reading? I must go to him.

Pretty much.

Mangastream just uploaded the latest chapters

are you fucking blind, son?
i fucking hope not
me and your mother dont like the idea of continuing to support the life of an invalid

Kissmanga.

>Start hyping up the new move for weeks/months
>Ippo "supposedly" healed and can continue his training for the new Dempsey Roll
>Fast forward to match
>Match started and he BTFO his opponent
>Opponent still stands
>Now Ippo will lose cause "lol brain injury" and the hack of an author will either go through a rushed unsatisfying ending or will shit out a million chapters as usual
This is the same series where Takamura fought a fucking bear and won. Come the fuck on man.

my father died in a car accident

It's not just "Opponent still stands", he nailed some good punches on his head.

Just fucking kill Ippo and make Takamura the protagonist already.

That's my life you're describing, OP.

>Implying Takamura isn't going blind

I don't read manga (including this one) but I stumbled on this by accident. Don't know why I found it so funny, but I did.

>read another episode of clearly endless money milking manga
>complain that there's never any progress

own fault for being a complete retard

I REMEMBER

It's not that Ippo's losing, it's how exactly he's losing.

ippo you piece of shit

was that fucking healing period all for nothing you brain damaged punch drunk moron?

fuck off

this manga is done

i just wanted an old school protagonist that always wins and comes back stronger. if i want tragedy ill read something else you fucking yellow nigger mangaka

now i just have to wait for berserk to end since the bastards will end this one with ippo retiring after this fight

Post your fucking face when you've realized that we're all on Mr. Morikawa's Wild Ride?
All this time he pretended it was just a sport shounen and instead he's slowly killing Ippo right before our eyes. Kids think it will have a happy ending but instead we'll see Ippo degrade until he's insane and then die in the ring, never having beaten Ricardo.

kill yourself

...

Ippo's going to die and Itagaki will replace him. Miyata already foreshadowed this.

JOOOOOOOOOEEEE

In Fire Emblem 5 right after the main character promotes to prince he fucks up the next chapter so badly he loses a leadership star

Fresh from Sup Forums

...

>got recomended this series
>never watched past ep 4 due to backlog for fucking 7 years
>this entire arc from what I've heard
Should I just pick up Ashita no Joe? Manga or anime?

At this point the author just want to one-up Ashita no Joe with 'tragic' ending. But unlike Joe, Ippo is absolute trash.

Does he actually lose in this chapter? I love that everyone came out to watch this and are anticipating the new Dempsey. I want to see all of them crushed in disappointment.

Manga for consistent quality. Anime for visual flare and direction. I personally like the anime more.

Ippo episodes 1 to 76 are legitimately good. Just don't pay attention to anything after he becomes the Japan champion

Thanks, goodluck on the eternal ride.

>people think you can do professionnal boxing without any consequence
A fighter life is like a criminal life you can't just have your fun and get a cool retirement

What you're saying is bullshit because Ippo's punch drunk shit didn't start to really show itself until Gonzales when George decided that it now matters. It had no real build up aside from Ippo getting his fucking face punched in every fight.
