| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Looks like this episode explores more of the school life at Kamakura Nagasaki. The infirmary does not look like a fun place to be lol Glad to see they got a little bit out outdoor exploring too. |
 |
| So they made up their minds about making a club and they already got a club room but since it was mentioned earlier that making a new club is hard they might run into some issues. they also have to recruit some members by the look sof it. |
| Classic club formation episode. Watching the girls look around the different clubs was pretty fun, was Hiromi drowning in a pool were she could actually stand? xD Was nice hearing the Principal's nostalgic story. And so the Minami Kamakura Koukou Joshi Jitensha bu is formed. :3 |
 |
| The club is formed. I like the princess character the most of out all members so far. |
| And thus the bicycle club was reborn! Pretty sweet episode all around. Fuyune's granny was quite the looker in her youth! XD |
| Okay. Good ep'. Surprised Hiromi knows nothing about Okinawa (she's from Nagasaki, almost as far South as you can go on the 4 main islands that make up Japan)? Was going to write off Fuyune as The Spoiled Little Rich Girl, but we're given some backstory on her (her older sister, bedridden). Okay. Fuyune's alright with me. The girls are all looking at the pictures, I'm looking at THAT OLD TOURING FRAME on the wall! Front and rear racks still attached, front derailleur's there ... GRUPPO wa doko desu ka? (laughing). The detail on the bikes is like manna from Heaven for me. If they'd gotten it wrong, I'd be disappointed. In this case: the cantilever brakes on the old touring frames of the 1974-era club. Yup. Period-correct. Good Job, J.C.Staff. |

The headmaster is her grandmother I don't think it will be a problem. |
| It's really fun anime really sad that it is rated that low :/. Grandma was dead right " we lose somethings by going fast " |

| Well at least they tried a whole bunch of different clubs. The cosplay club would have been my choice. |

Like I can never skip either of them, the OP just really gets me in a good mood and the ED is unbelievably good. |
 "If I don't have to do it, I won't. If I have to do it, I'll make it quick."- Oreki Houtarou |
| Hmm...The synopsis is quite different from the actual scenes here. The synopsis says the club was already formed, in here, they're still forming one. Anyway, It feels a a bit nostalgic knowing that the club existed back in the 70's and the grandmother/principal was a member was nice. And the clubhouse was cool. With the principal as a former club member and the new homeroom teacher as club adviser, it'll be easy to make resurrect the bicycle club. They need one more member which is the foreigner. The OP and ED are okay. But I feel the ED suited more on Yowamushi Pedal than an all-girls bicycle club. |
| She looked like she was dead. |
 |
| so they are forming the club the already have a room so that's a plus but it's not going to be that easy is it |
 |
| The arrival of the canonical moment when you create the club, it was inevitable. Not proved boring episode, because in the end, there was the more or less marked characterization, there was a small section on the last decades of the history behind the modern Japan, and has also explored a while the area around the school, giving us the opportunity to appreciate the fine work done by JC Saff in the backgrounds. Maybe it's in a bit less fun, but more concrete with regard to the story. I'm surprised he took the initiative to found the club of the girls on bicycles, he has been Kamikura Fuyune and not Maiharu Hiromi. Drawings and animations, are of good quality, the backgrounds are the best part of the soul, very beautiful and well made. Perhaps by this time, the story will begin to take a very different path from that view in Long Riders. |
 |
| They got a pretty dang nice school, especially the pool section, but dang, they suck at sports. And as I said before, it's nice how there is more than one of them inexperienced with biking instead of just one to do all the whining. The Cycling Club was formed, and they have a nice little hang out with some backstory. Good episode. |
A Wild and Small Otaku has Appeared! |
| I have to concur with a couple of other comments that Fuyune is the best character. She came off as arrogant in episode 2, but we get a nice glance at her backstory in this ep. I guess she was trying to photograph birds and scenery for her sis? The founding of the club is a trope as old as the hills, but grandma's reminiscing about her adventures in the 70's and the onrush of modernization simultaneously making life more convenient and wrecking everything was a nice touch this episode. I'm with ya grandma, I've seen it myself. |
| This was nice. I like grandma. |
| This shows starting to pick up! The 70's-80 were defiantly the bike bike boom, when people headed out everywhere to see the world on bikes. |
| I would like to add that the direction of the story seems to have departed from the Long Riders trajectory. I like Long Riders also, but it's good that this show is heading off in its own direction. |
| Fuyume Oujo best girl :) Trying out clubs and fuyume grandma principal makes them decide on bike club.  |
 |
| jitensha bu us formed. That backstory with hrr grand mother |
| That Hiromi lol The way she was walking on the pool was priceless. Real relaxfull episode. The backstory to the club was real good and I agree, back then riding bikes was fun. Nowadays you hardly see kids on bikes because they are so into technology. I found it a bit surprising that Fuyune gave the club key to Hiromi instead of Fuyune since she was the one that came up with the idea to revive the club. Looking forward to the adventures the group will have. |
 |
I think she is more retarded than Hane |
 |
| I had to facepalm myself when she said that. I don't find it hard to believe that there are truly people like this in the world. I'm finding I like Fuyune also. She's not coming as the spoiled, rich girl that's portrayed in most animes. She has a bit of humbleness around her because of what we've seen with her sister. She and Tomoe are turning into the best girls of this series. YogaCycleQC said: You might be lucky to find the cosplay versions of these jerseys. I found the both the cosplay version and actual Yowamushi Pedal bike kits on Amazon. The Sohoku high school shorts are a bit shear. I did a long ride in it last spring with no issues.Question is will my 9 year old bike crazy daughter want a Long Riders team jersey or a Minami Kamakura jersey for her b-day? lol |

| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| Very amusing episode. Finally they decided to found a club. I guess the following episode will include more bicycle riding. 4/5 |
| The cycling is slowly forming-up with 4 pioneer original members! 3/5. |

gophercg said: "... pedal cages, supposedly predecessors to clipless pedals ...." Thank you, gophercg, that made me laugh. Quill pedals, toe clips and toe straps, that's how we did it in Ye Olden Days. I probably still have a set of "rat-trap" pedals in the basement. Cheers! |

i agree totally with you Lelouch ;) This episode was a very classic, of book!!! Regards partner!!! ;) Third episode, and this series don´t has nothing special :( |
| As usual, the Ojou turns out to be best girl. I especially like that she isn't like your typical Ojou character with the "ohohoho" laugh (not that I hate them), but is a bit of a tomboy. Kind of reminds me of Rin Tousaka, especially with that hair and voice (which is just as hot). |
| That nostalgic bit from the principal was nice And so the club is formed! It was strange how it took them having to listen to a compelling story instead of seeing that they all had something in common and such a club wasn't already in place to begin with |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| So they're going to run that old bike club? that's a pretty good idea yeah |
 |
| The bicycle club was reborn. Good job, Fuyune! Grandma's backstory was really interesting. "40 years? Bicycles have been around that long?" <-- Hiromi is so stupid. xD |

| That rare case when the ojou-sama character is actually likeable... |
| This is starting to remind me more of Tamayura, especially with the cozy little hideout. I couldn't help but get a bit teary eyed when the grandmother was reminiscing on her cycling club. She seems really soothing & I felt like I was listening to my own grandma's tales. "There are certainly things gained through speed. But I think we also lose some things by going fast." A very fitting sentiment for this show's more laid back atmosphere. I was surprised to see Fuyune be the one to suggest starting a cycling club. Between her reason for wanting to travel & how cute her oujo-san routine is, Fuyune is already my favorite. This is really shaping up into a gem of a series. |
