I find her disproportionate body to be more distracting than her eyes though.

Anyway, looks bad and they didn't even bother to blend in the CG bike properly. Therefore, expecting low production values as well.

As far as I'm concerned, a sports anime with female characters are always welcome, those are a rarity these days. Here's hoping it's actually good and has overflowing optimism like Yowamushi Pedal.

Hm, I'll at least see if I'm gonna watch it, however the art with the fricken-huge-even-by-moe-standards eyes is cancerous.

Dem eyes doe! It might be a nice/relaxing show though, depending on which route it'll take.

Will watch, people are so self absorbed these days thinking every anime needs to have great animation and story, disgusting this is why the anime industry is dying.

Well yeah, it's a slice-of-life, not a shounen..

Looks a bit bland, but kinda cute.
