Nanako Itagaki

Driven by an intense admiration for the legendary Makunouchi Ippo, this spirited sixteen-year-old high schooler spends much of her time competing with her rival, Mashiba Kumi. Much like her handsome brother Manabu, she possesses a striking appearance paired with a quirky, pun-loving personality. While she famously attempted to kiss a sleeping Ippo, she remains uninterested in Kyousuke Imai’s romantic advances, choosing to ignore his feelings to avoid any complications with her brother’s boxing rival.
