Fighting Spirit

AudienceAudience: 8.7

An ordinary high school student spends much of his time helping his mother with the family business and struggles with bullying. After a boxer intervenes, he finds a new sense of direction and begins training to pursue boxing, starting a demanding journey to improve his skills.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like underdog stories, sports training, and a protagonist working toward a clear goal; Not for you if you prefer lighter stories without bullying or hardship.
