I think Crunchyroll would have a good shot at being able to get the new season(and the previous seasons since those would both fall under NTV's umbrella assuming NTV is the distributor).

I have a question, since Kenji Utsumi has died, the voice of Kamogawa, how are the producers of the anime going to fill that role? It'll be interesting to see how they do this.

In any event, surprising news that it came this late, I would have thought they'd have gotten it done 2 years ago at the latest. Still, more Ippo is good.

The same as usual, they take another voice actor, at best someone who sounds like Kenji Utsumi.
It's not really a problem since they sometimes change the voice actors of characters in new seasons etc.

latest example, Saki Kasukabe from Genshiken is voiced by Rina Satou in Season 3 instead of Satsuki Yukino.

The Utsumi Kenji thing is pretty much the first thing I thought of as well. I hope they find a fitting cast, but it will be incredibly sad to watch more HnI without the definitive Kamogawa. Sad

Still looking forward to seeing this, though!

Best news of the day easily. And maybe...just maybe Crunchyroll will consider picking this up too, which would just be fantastic!

I took a break from the ANN forums, but returned just to say:

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

Now I can stop sacrificing small children to my golden Takamura statue.

Are they picking this up from where New Challenger left off with the end of the Hawk fight vs Takamura? I remember Ippo having all sorts of trouble with one fighter because he knew the "weakness" to the Dempsey Roll and what not.

A Sequel to New Challenger had been planned since 2009, nice to see it finally happening

I was seriously considering looking into a starting a kickstarter to get more Ippo animated. One way or another I was going to make it happen Laughing
