In a World… where boxing is the world's most popular sport, the fighters wear super-powered gloves that give them unique abilities in the ring. Aster hopes to begin her journey into this world, but she never meshed well with any pair of gloves brought before her. Until one night, when she happened upon a chance encounter with the gloves of a long-gone boxing legend, who was her personal idol to boot.They wind up being a perfect match for her, and so this kick-starts her foray into the Pro Boxing League. Armed now with Shooting Star, Aster proceeds to rise through the ranks while making new friends and facing down rivals, all while trying to solve the mystery of the ten-years-ago disappearance of her gloves' previous bearer.Star Impact is a webcomic written and drawn by American artist Jack McGee and published by Hiveworks, which he has described as "a love letter to shounen action and sports anime". and has been ongoing since October 9th, 2018. | |

| Star Impact (Webcomic) / int_116a941b | comment |
Applied Phlebotinum: Series creator Jack McGee has stated that "gloves are both called, and made from, a material called Real Leather." What goes into the glovemaking process, how Real Leather is made, and what else must be done for a new pair of gloves to take on their extraordinary powers, remains unknown. | |

Wall of Blather: Aster gets wordy when... Monologuing about a pair of gloves Buzz bought for her. Fangirling over Yellow when he visited her scrap with Urchin. Blowing her stack at Stryker berating her over her lack of skill and experience, yet thinking the latter would coach her anyway. | |

Guest Strip: Between certain chapters, McGee includes these contributions from guest artists. He has stated that all of them are strictly non-canon, and allow the artists to take their own directions with the characters. There were eleven of these slotted between Chapters 1 and 2. Another spate of these came between Chapters 3 and 4, this batch being much shorter than its predecessor at only four pages. | |

Collateral Angst: After Puck was brutalized by Urchin early in Chapter 1, the story came to focus on Aster, and her feeling horrible about not meshing with any pair of gloves with which she could've gotten back at Urchin for beating the stuffing out of her friend. | |

Then Let Me Be Evil: Urchin used to be an official boxer in the PBL, who, while rough around the edges, genuinely just wanted to box for fun and sport. Both the crowd and fellow boxers booed him and treated him like a villain for his attire, his strength, and his Leather, to the point where he decided to leave the PBL and embrace the role. | |

The Fighting Narcissist | |
| Star Impact (Webcomic) / int_3e29ac83 | comment |
The Fighting Narcissist: Lily, Aster's second professional opponent, is a boxer who moonlights as an idol, and thus to protect her image, she forfeits anytime it looks like her opponent is going to mess up her face. However, she's more than willing to throw this out the window if an opponent gets her fired up enough, as Aster does. | |

Temporary Bulk Change | |
| Star Impact (Webcomic) / int_49f4768e | comment |
Temporary Bulk Change: Lily's Leather, Heartbeat Hero, allows her to do this, selectively bulking up individual limbs; for instance, she can bulk up her legs for a boost of speed, or a single arm to turn a simple haymaker into one that'll leave the opponent kissing the canvas. It's convenient for Lily, since she can keep her dainty idol's physique while remaining able to go toe-to-toe with her foes in the ring. | |

Explaining Your Power to the Enemy: Averted à la Hajime no Ipponote Therein, a boxer's techniques are explained during fights, but never by the boxers using them., which is itself one of only a few fighting/sports manga to avert this trope. While almost all known Leathers and boxer attributes/strategies are explained at one point or another, it is never done by the people who're using them. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Star Impact (Webcomic) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: Shooting Star crash-landing into the Seaside Gym is referenced twice. First by Teddy when he puts Aster to work repairing the damage that the gloves caused, and then by Buzz, who, when Aster claims that It's a Long Story as to how the fabled gloves came to her, pipes up about their true origin. A fight poster early in Chapter 3 catches Aster's eye. When Phoebe asks her about it, she mentions that one of the poster's featured boxers was in the fight shown in the prologue, which she said was the first big-league match that she saw in person. On Chapter 5, Page 9, a sticker reading "DON'T BREAK THIS ONE" is seen on Aster's punching bag. This references Chapter 1, Page 29, where she obliterated her old one with a Star Punch. | |

World of Technicolor Hair | |
| Star Impact (Webcomic) / int_9dbf9610 | comment |
World of Technicolor Hair: Many of Star Impact's characters have bizarre hair colors not seen in the real world. Aster lives up to this trope most accurately, having purplish-blue hair and electric-blue eyebrows. Puck's hair is pink. Urchin sports a black-and-pink striped mohawk. Remy, one of Teddy's friends, has purple hair. Etna has a mess of two-toned red and lime hair, which one comic fan likened to a watermelon. Additionally, her second and cutwoman, Liz, has sea-green hair. Lily has teal hair so bright it almost looks luminescent. | |
