[39] Vagabond won the Grand Prize for manga at the fourth Japan Media Arts Festival in 2000. The following is an excerpt from the speech congratulating Takehiko Inoue: "From Toyotomi to Tokugawa. Musashi Miyamoto grew up amidst the turn of two great eras. Mr. Inoue has taken the powerful Musashi who was sometimes called a 'beast' and drawn him as a vagabond. The artist brags about boldly challenging the national literary work of Eiji Yoshikawa, even so, the sense of speed that he creates is impressive.
The next day, Ippo arrived to the Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium for his match. In the waiting room, due to Ippo being unable to clinch his fist hard enough to punch, Yamaguchi, who arrived to Osaka, gave Ippo a shot containing pain killers to smother the pain. In the ring, Kamogawa asked Ippo about the shot, which Ippo answered that he had no idea as he could not feel his fist. Ippo lands his first right on Sendō. When the match began, Ippo's guard was immediately knocked back by two of Sendō's jabs. Ippo backed away to the ropes from the pressure Sendō emitted. Knowing that being defensive would not cut it, tried to strike with a left, but was hit back immediately, causing Ippo to go defensive again. Ippo got closer to Sendō and stopped at close range as he decided that he had to use his right to defeat Sendō. Ippo tried to aim his right by
throwing a left jab, however he got hit by a right. Ippo was then instructed to stop his movements with a body blow only for Ippo to be hit by one. After getting hit by
another body blow, Ippo noticed Sendō stopped his movements, he then landed a right, discovering that he felt no pain after throwing his right.
