I am of the opinion that the three episode rule is bullshit, and that a show should hit the ground running with a strong first episode instead of spreading things out.

With that in mind, post some S-tier first episodes, irregardless of what the rest of the series is like. I'll start with a meme one so nobody else has to worry about taking the heat for it.

Has this show had a lasting impact on any of you? Did it make you want to become the best at something? Be it boxing, programming, running, sports, hell even competitive gaming? Share your stories.

As an anime with no supernatural or magic references the show does a fantastic job of reeling the audience in with superb character development and story telling, not to mention the fights are spot on.

I actually really wanted to get into boxing when I was younger. I never had the courage to actually sign up though. I always thought I was too small and I'd just be a punching bag for a bunch of guys that wouldn't give a shit about me. After a friend exposed me to this anime I suddenly had a bout of courage and actually joined a boxing gym. Now of course I wasn't anything like Ippo but I tried my god damn best to keep that fighting spirit up. Over and over again I failed but not once did I give up. Fast forward a few years and I'm still not the best but now I can actually win fights and the people at the gym are now my friends, hell, family almost. I'm thankful this anime exists just because it gave me that little push to peruse something I thought was completely ridiculous for someone with my body shape at the time.
