Hajime no Ippo is a 2000 Japanese anime series based on the manga written by George Morikawa. The first 75-episode anime season, produced by Madhouse, Nippon Television and VAP and directed by Satoshi Nishimura, aired on Nippon TV between October 4, 2000, and March 27, 2002.[1] The episodes were collected into twenty-five DVDs released by VAP from March 16, 2001 to March 21, 2003.[2][3] The last DVD includes a special episode which did not air in Japan, numbered 76.[3] A television film titled Hajime no Ippo: Champion Road aired on April 18, 2003.[4] An original video animation (OVA) titled Hajime no Ippo Mashiba vs. Kimura was released on September 5, 2003.[5]

A second season titled Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger aired on Nippon TV from January 6 to June 30, 2009.[6][7]

In 2009, Rikiya Koyama, the voice actor of Mamoru Takamura, revealed in his blog that a sequel to the Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger season was being planned. At the end of his blog entry, he wrote, "Of course, a sequel is also being planned!!".[7] In July 2013, it was reported in that year's 34th issue of Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine that a third season of Hajime no Ippo would air in the fall 2013 season.[8][9] The third season, titled Hajime no Ippo: Rising, ran for 25 episodes from October 5, 2013 to March 29, 2014.[10][11] Hajime no Ippo: Rising was streamed on Crunchyroll.[12]
