This was a quick read, I read a chapter a day so I finished in four days but honestly I could have easily finished faster. The most difficult aspect was the casual language. Lots of "ねー"s instead of "ない"s and such. Other than that, lots of short sentences, and new vocab is repeated frequently.

Boxing terms were often written in kanji with the furigana being a katakana loanword from English. That made it so it was easier to follow along even as someone who knows very little about boxing; if I knew what the kanji meant, and I knew what the katakana meant, I was able to put two and two together and really know what was going on without looking up too much. The manga also did a good job showing the different kinds of punches in this one training scene. So don't worry if you know little about boxing in your native language or in Japanese, because the protagonist is learning too! Speaking of which, I really liked 百合 (the protagonist), she reminds me a bit of myself at that age.

I liked this manga overall, it's very lighthearted and is fun to read, but it's either very slow-releasing or abandoned (idk which). So keep that in mind if you're looking forward to reading a yuri boxing manga.
