Boxing manga with a really depressive main character.

The second arc of Boys on the Run feels quite similar to Kick no Oneesan. the difference is that in KnO the MC doesn't end up boxing but still frequently goes to the boxing gym to meet with the love interest. KnO is like if Boys on the Run was written in a more conventional and more feel-good way. If you like the romance and boxing aspect of Boys on the Run you might like it.

It's another by Kengo Hanazawa and it's very good. Not similar in story, but similar in how good he is with real character building and making a story both real and very enjoyable.

It's a long shot, but I get the same feeling from both - perhaps the seinen quality. Different stories. Different focus. Same strange hearty humor, somewhat obscenely hilarious in BotR, somewhat childishly charming for Solanin.

In both of these serialisations, the male protagonist finds boxing as a means of "progressing" in life.

In both manga the main characters are kind of pathetic and still struggle to "find themselves" and have a sort of unrequited or suffering from heartbreak. Both also utilizes a lot of dark humour and tragedy.

Although different in asthetic and tone, both series involve protagonists who were bullied but find boxing as a means of moving forward.
