Imai, Kyousuke
Summary
Kyousuke Imai stands as the longstanding rival of Itagaki Manabu, distinguished as the sole boxer capable of defeating Itagaki during their high school years. The two faced off three times in the amateur ring, with Imai securing victory in every match. Physically, Imai bears a striking resemblance to Itagaki's senpai, Makunouchi Ippo, sharing a similar build, knockout style, and even hairstyle. Typically cool and composed, he maintains a poker face even in the heat of battle. It appears that only Ippo, Itagaki, and Itagaki's sister Nanako can break through his perpetual calm, with Imai harboring deep romantic feelings for Nanako.
