ʕु-̫͡-ʔु”-- CoolAnimeHustler's Anime VHS (One Pound Gospel)

ʕु-̫͡-ʔु”-- Hey, How's It Goin! Welcome To The CoolAnimeHustler Blogspot! I'm The CoolAnimeHustler And Today I Want To Talk About My Hobby And Love Of Watching And Collecting Anime VHS Tapes! Once Again, I'm Excited To Discuss, Showcase, Tell Jokes (Heh...), And Provide Stories About My Love And Collecting Of Anime Physical Media! The Anime Physical Media That I Will Be Discussing Today  Is On VHS (aka Video Home System) And That Title Is...

One Pound Gospel (OVA) (1988)

This VHS Tape Introduced Me Into More Of Rumiko Takahashi's Works! Takahashi's Comedic Storytelling Approach Towards Boxing, Faith And Love Is Truly A Underrated Classic

One Pound Gospel Is A Japanese Action/Comedy Series That Was Written And Illustrated By Rumiko Takahasi. The Story Revolves Around A Promising Professional Boxer Named Kosaku Hatanaka Who Has A Really Great KO Punch To Become A Champion Someday. The Only Problem Kosaku Has In The World Of Professional Boxing Is... Food! As A Professional Boxer, Kosaku's Low Willpower To Follow His Diet Plan And The Temptation With Ramen, Hamburgers, Pizza, And Other Tasteful Treats Has Led His Promising Boxing Career Into Journeyman Status! From Being Disqualified From Boxing Matches Because He Didn't Make The Qualifying Weight To Being Knocked Out By Boxers In Higher Weight Classes In The First Round Because Of His Poorly Managed Weight, The Losses Have Been Piling Up And It Seems That Reach Of Becoming A Boxing Champion Is Just A Dream Of The Imagination! Kosaku's Boxing Coach, Mukoda, Has Expressed His Frustration And Disappointment With Kosaku's Lack Of Willpower Of His Diet Plan And The Multiple Losses He Has Received. Coach Mudoka Stated That Kosaku's Latest Defeat, In Which He Was Knocked Out And Puked In The Ring, Has Been Blackballed From Competing In Anymore Boxing Matches Thus His Career May Finally Be Over! As Faith Would Have It... He Ends Up Bumping Into A Nun Named Sister Angela Who Sees That Kosaku Is Struggling With His Temptations And Will Power! Sister Angela, Who Is A Nun That Is Devoted To God, Decides To Help Kosaku By Giving Him Encouragement And Having Faith In The Lord To Help Him Through His Troubling Endeavors! After This Encounter, Kosaku Receives A Second Chance In The Boxing World From Situations And Micrales That Only God Himself Could Provide! The Helpful Sweet Kindness That Sister Angela Gave To Kosaku, Makes Him Fall In Love With Sister Angela. Although Sister Angela's Heart Is Only For The Lord, Kosaku's Love For Sister Angela Gives Him The Motivation To Become A Better Boxer, Fight His Unhealthy Temptation For Food, And Maybe Just Maybe... Win Sister Angela's Heart! Rumiko Takahasi's  Manga Series Was Serialized Irregularly In Weekly Shonen Sunday Magazine From July 1987 To March 2007 And Produced A Total Of 4 Manga Volumes By Shogakukan! Eventually, An Anime OVA Was Then Created For Takahashi's Manga And Was Produced By Studio Gallop In 1988! The One Pound Gospel Anime OVA First Aired In Japan On December 2nd, 1988 And Received Some Decent Reviews At The Time! Since Rumiko Takahashi Officially Finished Her Widely Popular Urusei Yatsura Manga Series In 1987 And Began Working On Her New Manga Called Ranma 1/2 In The Same Year, Takahashi Was Becoming A Household Name With Manga And Anime Fans! With This Momentum In Popularity, The American Company Known As Viz Media, Was Able To License The One Pound Gospel Anime Ova In 1995! Viz Media Would Later Get The First Three Volumes Of One Pound Gospel That Came Out A Year After Each Other From (1996-1998) Because The Manga Was Serialized Irregularly. Unfortunately, Due To Irregularly Of The Manga Not Producing More Chapters For The Manga, The Fourth Manga Never Came Out And There Was No Ending Of This Lovable Manga! The Manga Run For One Pound Gospel In The US Was Canceled From Viz Media To Make Room For More Popular Titles At The Time! But You Know What... God Works In Mysterious Ways Because In 2007, Rumiko Takahashi Went Back To Her One Pound Gospel Manga And Finally Finished The Fourth Volume Giving A True Ending To All Of Her Adoring Fans! With This Love That Takahashi Showed For Her 80's Manga, Viz Media Went Back And Re-Released All Four Volumes In 2008! I Actually Remember Back In 2008 That I Was Reading An Anime Magazine In A Hastings Video/Book Store Seeing That Viz Media Was Making A 2nd Edition To This Manga And I Was Able To Pre-Order All Four Mangas In 2008! I Was So Happy To Read Them And It Was One Of My Favorite Manga Titles That I Ever Read! Later On In The Mid 2010s I Was Able To Find The Eng Sub VHS Tape Because It Was Very Hard To Find! I Was Also Able To Find The Original Japanese VHS Tape As Well! The Internet Is A Beautiful Thing, Yo! One Pound Gospel Is A Story About Boxing, Comedy, Love, And Also Faith! An Underated Classic That Needs More Love, Youknowwhtaimsayin!?

One Pound Gospel Is A Fun Underated OVA That Puts A Comedic Spin In The Sport Of Boxing, Faith, And Love! (o^.^)-b 

A-Yo! Lets Take A Trip And Slide Into The Anime Side Of The Game, Youknowwhatimsayin!? (Memes Included)

The 1990's In America Were Some Of The Best Years For Watching Anime On VHS Because Everybody Thought They Were Just Kid Shows. You Could Just Rent 'Akira" Right Next To A Garfield Cartoon And The Video Store Clerk Would Just Check It Out To You No Questions Asked! They Were Cool Bros, Yo! But Later Down The Line Tho, They Started To Put Those "Not For Kids" Stickers On Them After Some Backlash From News Outlets Claiming That They Were Ultra Violent! While It's True That Some Anime Titles Were Pretty Violent And Ultra Sexualized (I'm Looking At You "Urotsukidoji", Golgo 13, And "M.D. Geist" That's Next To The Carebear VHS Tapes With No "Not For Kids" Stickers! LOL!) Most Of The Anime Titles Were Really Catered Towards The Teen Audience And Some Of Them Were Mistakenly Labeled With The "Not For Kids" Stickers (Dragonball, Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, Final Fantasy: Legend Of The Crystals! Had To Have An ID For Those Because I Was Just A Kid! LOL!) Nonetheless, I Walked Into A Hollywood Video One Day Because Hollywood Video Had A Really Decent Section Of Anime At That Time! I Remember I Was Looking For Some VHS Tapes To Watch And Was Thinking Of Grabbing Another Ranma 1/2 Title To Watch! That's When I Spotted This Wonderful VHS Tape Called "One Pound Gospel" In The Kids Section. I Was Still In My Early Stages Of Watching Anime And I Only Watched A Select Few Of Titles Such As "Ranma 1/2, Gunsmith Cats, Dragonball, Dirty Pair And Goldenboy (I Got Lucky With That Goldenboy VHS Because... You Know... It Didn't Have The "Not For Kids" Sticker! It Took A Lot Of Courage Renting That One Out As A Kid! Have You Seen The Cover Art! LOL!) Anyway, When I Looked At The One Pound Gospel VHS Tape I Noticed That This Was Made By Rumiko Takahashi The Same Creator Who Made Ranma 1/2 And Got Interested Real Fast! Seeing That This Story Was Going To Revolve Around Boxing, I Was Really Excited Because I Love Watching Boxing On TV! Especially Mike Tyson Because Mike Tyson Is And Forever Will Be The Greatest Knock Out Artist Of Our Lifetime! I Was Able To Rent This Title With No Problems And Walked Home To Watch It! This Is Where I Would Be Amazed Of Rumiko Takahashi's Skill With Humor And I Love Watching Movies That Make Me Laugh!

Oh Snap! I've Never Seen A Complete Beatdown Of A Main Character As The Start Of An Anime Before! Don't Worry I'm Sure He'll Get That Anime Plot Armor In No Time! ^_^

Oooooh...

Get Off The Ropes! Get Your Guard Up! You Can Do It! Just Please Do Somethin- Oooooh!!!

Yeah... This Beatdown Was Pretty Hard To Watch. 80's Anime NPCs Were Built Different!

You Don't Understand Coach! I Was Touched By An Angel That Provided Food So Good... So Heavenly... So Divine... That I Had To Do I What I Had To Do! Plus... I Was Hun~Gry!

Flashback To The Encounter Of The Angel Who Provided The Good Heavenly Divine Moment! Such A Touching Scene! ^_^

 You Know... I Kind Of Miss That Old School Introduction With Words On The Screen! It Was So 80's But It Was So Cool!

And That's What Happened Coach... But I Can Still Win, Tho! But Hey Uh... Do You Have Some Nausea Relief On Ya Cause... I'm About To Blow Chunks, Youknowwhatimean!?

Alright!! Round 2!! I Feel The Anime Plot Armor In Me!! It's All Or Nothin- Ooooohhh!!

Yeah... I Don't Think That's Legal In Boxing But Still... 80's NPC Characters Were Built Different!

 Spoken Like A True Protagonist... Ouch~Roni!

The Look Says It All... The Anime Plot Armor Is Not Coming Is It?

N-Nani!? There's Still Hope!! Three Haymakers Ahoy!

 Oh! Ooooh... Ow! Looks Like We Are About To See What We Had For Lunch!

And... The Main Character Lost... The Anime Plot Armor Never Came! I Think This Was The First Time I Ever Saw A Main Anime Protagonist Lose In Record Time! But This Makes The Story More Intriguing And I Wanted To See What Happens Now With Our Young Hero!

Although Their Boxer Lost The Fight, They're Still Looking For Fresh Talent!


Coach Mudoka Explains To Sister Angela Of His Boxing History His Boxing Prospect And Sees The Raw Talent And Tremendous Potential That Kosaku Possess!

But When Your Boxer Has A Food Addiction That Affects His Weight, Goals And Ambitions Can Get Complicated In The Fight Game Real Quick! LOL!

 Oh Yeah We All Saw That Beatdown That Involved You Puking And Getting Knocked Out! That Boxer You Fought Got A Sponsor Deal And Made The Top 10 Knockouts Of All Time! Yikes!

Coach Mudoka Has Had Enough And Gives A Big Reality Check To His Boxer! Kosaku's Losing Streak Has Entered Him Into Journeyman Status In The Boxing World! If You Want To Learn What A Journeyman Boxer Goes Through In Professional Boxing, I'll Recommend Searching the Internet! Believe Me... It's Not For The Faint Of Heart!

This Is A Very Touching Scene. When Life Beats The Living Daylights Out Of You And You Feel Lost, Don't Give Up! Keep Pushing Forward And The Lord Will Provide! On The Real, Yo... I've Been There Myself! If You Going Through Some Hard Times As Well, CAH Will Be Praying For You As Well! Keep Pushing On! 

After The Talk With Sister Angela, Kosaku Gets Motivation And Pushes Forward With New Determination! Also It's Awesome To Watch An Anime And See That The Main Character Is A Mike Tyson Fan Too! So Cool!

Kosaku Is So Motivated That He's Throwing Vicious Straight Hands At Random! Hopefully No Random Stranger Will Walk Int- Oh Nooooes!
Have You Or A Love One Caught The Hands Of A Boxer Or Random Person On The Streets And Don't Know What To Do? If So Then You Need To Contact Punch Drunk Insurance! We'll Knock Out Those Hospital Bills In No Time!

I Guess This Random Stranger Didn't Have Punch Drunk Insurance... Also... I Don't Think He's A Mike Tyson Fan Either! Is This The Making Of The Story's Antagonist?

Yeah Kosaku! What Would You Do If You Had Another Chance To Become A Ranked Boxer In The Fight Game?
 
Maaaaan... Here Me Out! You See These Six Bowls Of Ramen I Ordered! I finally Found A Way To get Back Into Boxing! I Decided That I'm Going To Take My Talents To The Heavyweight Division! Then I Will Never Ever Fail Weigh-Ins Again! I Will Be Known As The Great Heavy Hitting Big Buffet Eating Fast Whipped Cream Scooping Ice Cream Chugging Pizza Craving Sonofa-Gun Champion That This World Has Ever Seen! And It's Going To Be Hard Holding All These Fascinating Foods Down But... I Believe!!!

(.....)

Oh Yeah... And Uh... When I Hit Celebrity Status I'll Be A Judge On Those Cooking Battle Shows! Yeah...

It's A Miracle!! Somebody Decided To Challenge Kosaku! Kosaku Got His Second Chance At Boxing! The Lord Works In Mysterious Ways! Hmm... I Wonder Who Decided To Challenge Him?

Hmmm... This Guy Looks Very Familiar. Nah... I'm Imagining Things. Guy Looks Pretty Tough Tho!

Okay... This Guy Is Named Amakusa. And He Won... An Olympic Medal!? Whoa! This Guy Really IsTough And He's Looking For His First Fight In The Pros But... Why Kosaku?

Oh Snap! It's The Guy With No Punch Drunk Insurance! This Guy Doesn't Look To Happy With The New Look On His Face! Did He Really Just Say He Fell Down? (Pfft) LOL!

Spoken Like A True Antagonist... Kosaku Better Watch His Back Because This Boxer Means Business And He's Out For Revenge!

Alright! Looks Like Our Main Man Kosaku Is On The Right Path With His Training! At This Rate He'll Probably Make The Required Weight For His Next Boxing Match! Yay! ^_^
 
What's This? What Does Kosaku Wanna Talk About With His Friend Tabuchi. Let's Hope It's About Boxing!
 
It's Dark...  And It's In A Parking Lot That Goes One Way Out... I Have A Bad Feeling About This!

 
Hmmm... I Don't Know... That Sounds Like Some... Jive To Me Man... Also I Think 500 Yen Nowadays In 2024 Is Close To Like $3.25 US Dollars. Times Are Rough Right Now. I Guess 500 Yen Went A Long Way Back In The 80s!
You Know You Have A True Friend When They Tell You Straight Up Why They Won't Lend You Money And Know Your Prior Screw Overs! We Need More Friends Like These In The World!
Wait... What?
(.....) 
Well... He Does Have A Point There. But Still... What A True Friend! LOL!
You Also Know You Have A True Friend When They Tell You Straight Up They Will Give You 110% Of Everything They Got Comes The Next Sparring Session! We Need More Friends Like These In The World! LOL!
And With The Power Of Friendship... Kosaku Obtained 500 Yen!


Does Anybody Else Say This To Themselves When They Forgot The Shopping List But Still Go To The Store? I Do It All The Time! LOL!

This... This My Friends Is The Question That Get Us All In Trouble When You Know Your On A Budget! Been There, Yo!

That's Strange... There Seems To Be A Lot Of Food Around Here Then Underwear... Uhhh Ohhh...

Hey... Uhhh... I Uh... I Messed Up...
I Have A Confession To Make Sister... And Here We Go.

Okay... How You Doin... (Deep Breath) IT WAS FIVE CHICKEN KABOBS FOR 500 YEN!!! Ohhh... And I'm Still Wearing Yesterday's Underwear... (O_O)

Amen. Awww... LOL.

Whew! Those Five Chicken Kabobs Was A Close One! But Now Kosaku Is Back On The Right Path With His Training! There's Nothing That Can Mess This Up! Right?
Uhhh Ohhh...
Three Cup Of Ramen Noodles... Ohhh Noooo!

Okay!! Back To Training!!

Processed Foods... Ohhh Noooo!!
Okay! Back To Training!
A Whole Supreme Pizza And Your Eating With A Fork! Oh Noooo!! And Why!?!?!?

Okay... Yeah... Back To Training... (Sigh) LOL! Also Throughout This Whole Training And Eating Montage The Awesome Music That Was Playing Is Called "My Luck" By Mari Hamada! It's A Banger!
But On One Fateful Night... Something Shocking Is Revealed...
Coach Mudoka Is A Gamer! LOL!
In All Seriousness Tho, Coach Mudoka Right Hand Man, Ishida, Reveals To Coach Mudoka That Kosaku Is Gaining The Weight Back! Devastating!
Then Where Is He Getting The Money From... Wait... You Don't Mean...

(.....) Oh Boy... Not Tabuchi! 0_0;
My Goodness! I See Close To 17 IOUs (I OWE YOUs)! Kosaku Has Been Borrowing Money Everyday That Goes From 500 Yen To 1500 Yen!? There's No Denying It Now... He's A Food Addict!!
The Next Day...
(.....)
So Kosaku... Lets See If Your Training Paid Off...
You Blew It Kosaku!! You Had A Second Chance And You Blew It!! Sad Moment.

You Know The Situation Is Bad When You Make Your Coach Cry And Want To Convert To Daytime Drinking! Sad Moment Indeed.
You Also Know The Situation Is Really Bad When You Have A Nun Specifically And Disappointingly Waiting Just For You! Uhhh Ohhh...
(.....) 
What Is Your Response...?
A) You Don't Know Me, Sis!
B) Yes! I Have Sinned Many Times! My Temptation For Food Has Consumed Me!
C) I Love You!
D) (.....)
Your Response Is... C) I Love You!
Sister Angela Will Remember This!
(GASP) 0_0
Wow... I've Watched Lots Of Anime Love Stories... But I Never Would Have Imagine Witnessing The Main Character Confess Their Love And Kiss A Nun! Of Course... It Doesn't Go As Well As Planned...
Worst Day Ever... (T_T)
 Meanwhile Our Antagonist, Amakusa, Has A Press Conference On Him Turning Pro After Winning Gold In The Olympics! The Press Has Some Questions To Ask This Young Promising Upstart! Good Or Bad...
After The Disappointing Events That Have Occurred... Coach Mudoka Comes To The Realization That The Boxing Dream For His Young Boxer Maybe Over. The Coach Really Cares For Kosaku And Wants To Give Kosaku A Chance For A New Life After Boxing!
 
Coach Mudoka Pays An Unexpected Visit To His Boxer...
Oh Snap, Yo! It's BBQ Night! I Want My Baby Back Baby Back Baby Back, I Want My Baby Back Baby Back... Taihoraku Baby Back Ribs!!
Hmmmm~HM! So Tender And Tasty!

To Retire Or Not To Retire! That Is The Question...
Hey, Whatayouknow! Sister Angela And Her Friends Are Having A Girls Night Out! Oh Sister Angela Don't You Weep... No More Good Ol' Dry Liquor For You Tonight!

Meanwhile... Two Passionate Boxing Fans Come In For Some BBQ And Their Opinions About An Awfully Specific Fight Coming Up! They're So Passionate About Boxing That Their Words Have Reached The Ears Of Certain People Around Them! Coach Mudoka Is Even Thinking About Joining The Conversation...


WITH HIS FIST!!! (o^.^)-D

Suddenly, Some Good Happy Juice Is Wasted! Who Would Do Such A-

(.....) Hey... Sister Angela... Are You Doing Okay?

Whoa!! Sister Angela Don't Play With That Happy Juice In Her System! She Was Ready For The Smoke! I Kinda Wonder What Her Back Story Was Before She Became A Nun! You Know What... I Bet She Was The Undisputed Bar Fight Champion!

Kosaku Makes Sure To Bring Sister Angela Home Safely. After Witnessing Sister Angela Defend His Honor By Broken Bottle, He Decides To Change His Habits And Not Retire From Boxing.

 One Week Left Before The Fight... But Kosaku Hasn't Given Up On His Second Chance! Can He Really Lose The Weight He Gained Before The Weigh-In?
Keep It Up! Your In The Zone! You Can Do It, Kosaku!!


What's This!? Even Kosaku's Opponent, Amakusa, Overhears The Conversation And Is Happy For Him... Because Of Revenge!
Kosaku And Amakusa Are So Focused And Motivated With Their Training, It Seems That Fate Randomly Brings Them Together Like A One Two Punch Combinati-Oh Nooooes!
Poor Amakusa! He Was Caught By A Right Straight Hand Yet Again! Got To Hand It To Him Tho... He Sure Can Take A Punch! He Really Needs To Get Some Punch Drunk Insurance Tho...
Amakusa's Quest For Revenge Has Multiplied 10x Fold! Watch Your Back, Kosaku!

Kosaku Is Training Like His Life Depends On It! He's Almost At The Target Weight To Qualify For Fight Night But... He Only Has Five Days! He's Cutting It Close!

Kosaku Is Even Following His Diet Plan To The "T".
There Will Be Times When Hunger Calls And Old Habits Start To Come Back!

But Coach Always Looks After His Boxers With A Tight Leash! LOL!

The Road To Becoming A Boxing Champion Is A Harsh One But As Long As You Keep Pushing Forward You May Achieve Your Dream!

Kosaku Was Even Nice Enough To Give Sister Angela And Her Friends Free Tickets For The Boxing Match! He Hasn't Shown Up Lately Tho...Because Training!

 Oh Wait! There He Is! Kosaku's Training Is Really Paying Off And It Shows!
The Funny Thing About Rumiko Takahashi's Works Is That She Always Find A Way For Main Characters Trying To Deny Their Love For The Person They Really Love! You See It In Urusei Yatsura, Ranma 1/2, And Inuyasha! LOL!
This Is 100% True If You Are In The Sport Of Boxing!

Shout Out To All You Upcoming Boxers Out There! (o^.^)-b
Sister Angela Really Cares For Kosaku And Wants To Give Him Encouragement Before The Big Day! Awwww...
But Suddenly... Kosaku Is Escaped The Boxing Gym In Secret... His Food Addiction Has Taken Over Him And The Weigh-In Is Tomorrow! Uhhhh Ohhhh...
 Coach Mudoka Knows That If Kosaku Screws This Second Chance Up It's Officially Over! But They All Still Believe That Kosaku Can Fight His Addictions! All We Can Do Is Pray...
Pray That We Can Find Him In Time!
Found Him!! But Is It Too Late? Wow He's Fast!
I Tried To Kick... But That Food Just be Callin' Me Man, It Be Callin' Me Man... I Just Got To Go To It!
Lord! Forgive Me For What I'm About To Do! 10/10 Body Blow! What A Blessing!
 A Very Touching Scene! Fighting Through And Living Life With Bad Addictions Can Make Life Very Difficult But Having Somebody To Talk To Can Make A Difference!
The Next Day... Kosaku Hatanaka Was Able To Pass The Weigh-In Of 126 Pounds At The Featherweight Division! You Did It! You Got Your Second Chance!
It's Now Official Kosaku Hatanaka Vs Jiro Amakusa! The Two Fighters Exchange Words... Well That Went Well. LOL!
After Passing The Weigh-In, The Whole Gang Grabs Little Lunch Hours Before The Fight! It's Always Important To Pray And Bless Your Food. ^_^
But It Seems Kosaku Feels Sad... Is It Because Of The Words Said By His Opponent?
(....) Wait... What?
I Don't Know... I Feel Uneasy Of Where This Is Going...
Whoa!! Are We Really Doing This With Only A Couple Hours Till Fight Night!? A Super Jumbo Double Decker Chesseburger With All The Fixings And Medium Sized Fries With A French Fry Dipping Sauce!? Ain't Going Lie... That Looks Really Good Right Now! LOL!!
Hmmmm~HM! So Tender And Tasty!!
 
 What Could Possibly Go Wrong!? Everything!! LOL!!
 Here We Go Boxing Fans! Fight Night! 8 Rounds In The Featherweight Division! Let's Get It On!!

Kosaku's Training Has Really Paid Off! Great Movement And A Nice Right Hand Counter! Kosaku Gets The First Strike!
Ooohhh!! Spicy Mix-Up And A Really Great Knockdown By Kosaku!
Amakusa Doesn't Need The Standing Eight Count... He's Out For Revenge!
My Goodness! It's Another Mix-Up! That Body Blow Tho... Ouch!
End Of Round 1
Amakusa Can't Believe Kosaku Is A Journeyman Boxer With A Record Of 2 Wins, 5 Losses, All By Knockout! He Gives Him His Props, Yo!
 Kosaku Took The Body Blow Full Force And Didn't Toss His Cookies! His Corner Is Happy That Their Fighter Is Up On The Scorecards! The Body Blow That He Took Is Starting To Take It's Toll Tho...

Round 2!!
Fighters Are Feeling Each Other Out...
Amakusa Gets The First Strike This Time! Nice Jab Combination!

Oooohhh!! That's Gotta Hurt With The Right And Left Hook Crossover! The Rope Launch Was A Smart Move For Speed!

 Oh Snap!! Amakusa Put His Whole Weight behind That Left Body Shot!! Uhhhh Ohhhh... Are We Going To See The Aftermath Of The Super Jumbo Double Decker With Fries In The Ring!? I Really Hope Not...

 Amakusa Found Kosaku's Weakness! He's Out For Blood Now! His Revenge Is Starting To Be Realized! Ohhhh Noooes!!
End Of Round 2!! Saved By The Bell!
There Goes That Burger... Ewwww... (-_-)
Uhhh Ohhh... The Ref Has Walked Over To Our Corner... Is This The End For Kosaku's Boxing Career!?
Even Sister Angela Is Worried About The Safety Of Kosaku And Suggest To Throw In The Towel... BUT...
Kosaku Has Faith In The Lord And Will Never Ever Throw In the Towel! He Will Continue The Match And See This To The End! Win Or Lose!
Round 3!!
It Is Very Clear That Kosaku's Legs Are Gone And His Stamina Has Been Greatly Reduced! With Amakusa Coming In With Fresh Legs... This Will Not Last To 8 Rounds!
Amakusa Wastes No Time! He Knows The End Is Near! He's Going To Finish This By Knockout! If Only Kosaku Had That Anime Plot Armor...
It... It Was A Good Run, Kosaku... You Did Your Best...
N-NANI!?!? A God Given Opportunity! (O_O)
One Of The Most Cleanest Haymaker Uppercuts I've Ever Seen In Anime! Mike Tyson Would Be So Proud!
You Better Believe It, Amakusa! Anime Plot Armor Is A Real Thing! It's An Knockout Folks!!
 
Kosaku Hatanaka Def. Jiro Amakusa In 3 Rounds! Improves Record To 3 Wins, 5 Losses, With 3 KOs.
Amen! Awww... ^_^
 
Looking Back At It, One Pound Gospel Is One Of Rumiko Takahashi's Hidden Sports Gems That Is Rarely Talked About In The Anime Space! One Pound Gospel Was A One Shot Anime That Never Developed Into A Full Blown Anime Series That Really Could've Really Made Some Waves! This OVA Was Based On The First Arc In The Manga in Which Kosaku Fights To Get Ranked And Battle On His Road To Become A Boxing Champion! The One Pound Gospel Manga Has A Lot More Unique Characters With Many More Challenging Boxers That Kosaku Must Face! I Won't Spoil The Manga For All Of You Awesome Anime Fans Out There But It Gets Really Exciting Throughout The Story! One Pound Gospel Actually Did Get A Live Action Series Made Back In 2008 In Japan But I Have Not Watched It Yet! Recently, We Have Seen Rumiko Takahashi's Most Popular Series Get A Reboot Such As Urusei Yatsura That Came Out In 2022 And Also Ranma 1/2 Which Is Getting A Reboot In October of 2024! Maybe Someday... One Pound Gospel Will Get A Most Needed Reboot In The Future! After Watching One Pound Gospel As A Kid, It Made Me Really Think About God And Fighting Through Addictions! This Anime Made Me Want To Read The Bible and Understand God's Love For All People! We All Have At Least 1 Addiction In This Day And Age Of The Internet, But Having Faith In God Can Give You That Boost To Fight Your Addictions Head On! Having Faith Can Really Give You An Edge In Fighting Through Adversity And Man... Your Boi CAH Has Been Through A Lot Of It In My Lifetime, Yo! One Pound Gospel Holds A Special Place In My Heart And I Highly Recommend The Anime And Manga To Anyone Looking For A Sports Love Comedy! I Give One Pound Gospel a 10/10! I Hope You Enjoyed My Second Post Of CAH's Anime VHS! Stay Tuned For More! *Peace* (¯)
