----------------------------------------
Onoda's priceless face is fun to watch LOL. Shunsuke is one lucky popular dude though. Too many fangirls for him~

The match was kinda intense I guess. I liked Onoda's determination. A lot of people definitely underestimated him.

Good motive lol Surprising was his speed-up at the end. Hope he will win.

Miki is likable.

This.
Miki being likable is crucial. 2 episodes in I must say, this show is surprisingly entertaining. There is hardly a dull moment and it just works for me.

It'll be very annoying to me if the little fangirls on the sidelines keep tagging along.


I liked this episode but not as much as the first one.

Loving it so much so far :D

Imaizumi is still awesome! Damn going faster than 50 kph. Pretty damn fast.

Sakamichi was pretty amazing too. For a mommy bike with that saddle position and he was able to do that much.

I doubt he'll win since they're all joining the cycling club but he'll definitely prove himself as a BA and start liking cycling with this ^^

I wonder how good he'll be with a sport bike.

Loving Kanzaki too. She's a really nice girl :)

This series is really entertaining so far, Onada is pretty impressive going at that speed on a mommy bike, and with the saddle position, he's going even faster, it's scary to wonder how he'll do with an actual sports bike. It's also scary knowing that he's been riding to Akiba and back since 4th grade.

I'm not 100% sure on what the outcome of this race will be, but I'm pretty sure that Onada will catch up to Imaizumi. Also, Miki is a pretty awesome heroine!

absolutely loved this episode!! this is probably one of my favorite series at the moment. I really can't wait to see what happens next week but I have a good feeling Onoda will be able to win this by an inch. He is certainly impressive which how much distance he can cover in such a short time. i can only imagine what greatness will come with some good training and a better bike. It's also really cool how Miki knows her stuff! It just really sucks she brought the fangirls along lol i would have been pressured as well. Still, I'm happy Onoda used that as motivation instead of flaking out on the race.

Not bad for a second episode! Didn't have enough of the awesomeness as the first, but still enjoyable overall. LOL @ last part. They're so similar but so different in many ways.

Cliffhanger. Looking forward to next Monday!

Looks like he'll be able to go to and from Akihabara faster now. I just love their reaction from the mention of it being done on a mommy bike, and weekly for over 4 years at that.

7/10 for this ep.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

I didn't expect to enjoy bicycling anime at all.Surprisingly though, this is very good!.I really like the humour and characters seem interesting.I'll keep watching.
Also, is Hime Hime~ a ''real song'', or is it made for this anime?.I-it's not like i like it, b-baka.

I'm really enjoying this anime as well. The music is just top notch and adds so much to the excitement. Seeing those developements like the realization that he could go as fast as a scooter and at the end by changing the seat height...was amazing choices for music.

Plus. I dunno why but I just love Onoda and Miki's raw passion for anime and bike racing. That glitter in their eyes, that dorkiness- so infectious and innocent. xD I can't wait for the next episode. By far my most favorite sport anime of this season. Nothing else comes close.

Ahh, no, I need to know who'll win! When is it next week? The next episode title sounds like it might give some unexpected emotion though, judging by the "I don't have any friends" title. I hope it merely means that Sakamichi and Shunsuke will become each other's first friends, since the preview was about the things they have in common.

Decent episode , decent anime. 10/10
Totally , one of my Top 3 of this season.
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes!
Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!"

I liked the comparison b/w Sakamichi and the other guy after the ending. It's nice to have their personalities in action more than just their sport styles.

This turned out to be really enjoyable so far and to think I almost skipped it. Having his seat adjusted is fine and all but I'm not sure what he's going to be able to do with the other guy in front. Anyway man was afraid the race wouldn't end this episode so yeah, will just have to wait until next week.

I don't normally watch sports anime but I have to say I'm enjoying this so far.
Guessing the match will be a draw or a loss for Onoda. Guess we'll see, in fact I'm impatient so I'll probably just check out the manga lol...
