I can only hope it'll be a fitting tribute to Nagai and Utsumi. It's great that Nishimura returned to direct

1 typo in the last paragraph. You spelled Ippo with 3 p's.

Is this Hiroyuki Yoshino's first voice-acting role? I checked the ANN encyclopedia entry for him quickly and didn't see anything at first glance.

A picture that I took of him:

Hiroyuki Yoshino the voice actor is a different person from Hiroyuki Yoshino the screenwriter.

This pleases me.

The only question I have is does this mean that the last 4 episodes of the planned 25 will be the flashback, or will there be an additional 4 after the 25?

This is what I'm wondering too. If this was pre-planned to end Rising with these last 4 episodes, then that means that Miyata and Takamura's upcoming matches won't be as drawn out as I imagined it would. It would be great if these episodes added on as an extra bonus Smile

Wishful thinking though..

Ah, thanks for the clarification!

PS, there are two links to Hiroyuki Yoshino in the article, the first links to the screenwriter, the second links to the voice actor:

Code:

<div>Miyano, <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=36992">Hiroyuki Yoshino</a></cite> replace late <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=548">Kenji Utsumi</a></cite> &amp; <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=1529">Ichirô Nagai</a></cite> in story set in Kamogawa's past</div>
  <hr>
<div>
<p>
<img src="//cdn02.animenewsnetwork.com/images/cms/news/71154/news_large_ippo_sengo.jpg" hspace="3" vspace="3" border="1" align="right">The <cite class="e anime"><a href="/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=15542">Hajime no Ippo Rising</a></cite> television anime <a href="/news/2013-07-19/3rd-season-of-hajime-no-ippo-anime-green-lit">series</a> will <a href="http://www.ntv.co.jp/ippo/news/04.html" target="_blank">end</a> with a four-episode "Sengo-hen" (After the War Arc) spinoff in March, and for this spinoff, <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=10397">Mamoru Miyano</a></cite> will play Genji Kamogawa during his younger years.
</p>

These episodes will follow Kamogawa, the head of protagonist Ippo Makunouchi's boxing gym, in his past. Kamogawa's original <cite class="e lexicon"><a href="/encyclopedia/lexicon.php?id=75">voice actor</a></cite> <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=548">Kenji Utsumi</a></cite> <a href="/news/2013-06-13/fist-of-the-north-star-raoh-voice-actor-kenji-utsumi-passes-away">passed away</a> last June before <cite class="e anime">Hajime no Ippo Rising</cite> premiered, so <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=1259">Shozo Iizuka</a></cite> has been playing the character in the series. <cite class="e person"><a href="/encyclopedia/people.php?id=507">Hiroyuki Yoshino</a>

^ Anyway to get that typo in the original article linking to the screenwriter changed to the voice actor?

[Finally fixed, thanks to whoever did it, but doesn't show in the change log].
