| Description: | Otaku Sakamichi Onoda has just entered high school and plans to join the anime club. In middle school, Onoda didn’t have any friends with whom he could talk about anime, games, Akihabara and other otaku things, and he is hoping he can make such friends in the anime club, but he finds out it's been disbanded. In order to reestablish the club he tries to find 4 other people who would like to join. Since he was a little boy, Onoda has ridden his mamachari–a bulky bicycle with a step-through frame mainly used for short rides, such as for casual fun or to pick up groceries–to go to Akihabara every week to check out or buy otaku things. Fellow freshman Shunsuke Imaizumi and bicyclist, while training, notices a boy (Onoda) riding his mamachari up a steep road. Freshman and road racing cyclist, Shokichi Naruko visits Akihabara to get some Gundam plastic models for his younger brothers and meets Onoda who catches his attention because of the his cycling skill on the mamachari and later find out they go to the same school. Later on, both Naruko and Imaizumi try to convince him to join the bicycle racing club, but will he? |

An enitre volume on sprinting 1800m, what the fuck. Also if you're gonna be in a team atleast try to work together instead of throwing in this ''willpower'' bullshit.
Mountains.... :Q______
I can't wait :Q________
andy left chest frank right chest? LOL
These sprinters are so intense
Nice, another volume so quickly. That's the way to show the other groups who only picked this up because of the anime what a true fan looks like. Thanks for the release and don't overwork yourselves, I'm sure we have a long climb ahead.
woot, thanks for the update
Wow, I just caught up with this manga out of the blue a few days ago, and it's already gotten updates after being stagnant for so long!
All hail me
Just kidding, thanks for the great work Sukikatte!
Abs... abs... ABS!!! I think he meant... fabulous... fabulous... I'M FABULOUS~!!!!
I think that's the point. I'm betting this guy was always called creepy growing up and now he uses it to describe other people who are "weaker" than him. I'm sure we'll feel sorry for him by the end of all this. Or not and we'll cheer that he got his ass handed to him. Either way it should be a good time.
The irony on this page had me laughing for minutes
Also thinking that this was put there to introduce the reader to these parts as they came into play
I watched the first episode of this anime, thought it was pretty intresting since I like bikes, I couldn't wait for the next episode so i turned to the manga and of course became an instant fan
As a fellow Road Racer, Im glad I found this. Only at chapter 18 and this is getting really good.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!! They always make the volume end at the worst moments!!!!! T_T
The change from a granny-bike to a road bike is astounding: the rolling resistance goes away almost entirely, and the road bike weighs so much less.
However, by using clips and real cycling shoes, you get almost the same amount of benefit. On top of the ability to pull up on the pedals, cycling shoes have really, really stiff soles (unlike walking or running shoes) which help you efficiently transmit power to the pedals.
From this point on, there's really no easy hardware upgrades like this left, though.
Nice, a whole volume to celebrate the first episode of the anime. Thanks guys.
This is good! Followed! And thanks to sukikatte for the wonderful translations!
Welcome to Shounen manga, mon ami.
OMG! For a split second I thought the coach pulled Onoda's jersey outta his pants!
"Here! I was keeping it warm for ya!" OHHHH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDD NASTY!
Btw... ONODA ALWAYS GETS A RANDOM UPGRADE!!! Wtf?! "Hey Onoda how can you be losing? Here try this (insert upgrade here) out..."
Fuuuuu. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I was hoping this had more than 100 chapters when I read this 2 hrs ago ._.
There's something charming about this art. It's not the best, but it's cute.
so finally someone's giving him them shoes...are they even giving him a chance to secure a place for interhigh?
Sometimes it seems that the characters are overdramatic... Oh well! (Continues reading)
The captain removed his sunglasses!!!
Well while it might be one chapter less than the normal weekly manga volumes, The actual page count is about right for a weekly series. I'd say it's not that the volumes are short, but that this series focus' more on action over dialogue in many cases. It reminds me of Initial D, where you can have 3 or 4 pages with only SFX and little if any text.
