| Long Minami Kamakura Koukou Joshi Jitensha-bu Riders -Episode 1 I liked it. The colors are very bright in this show. The eyes seems a little "old school," a tiny bit like "Candy Candy" or similar from long ago. I confess to wondering if Hiromi belonged in a special school since she seems to have forgotten that bicycles have pedals, but then that end scene with her mom! Ha ha ha. Birds of prey are some of my favorite things so seeing the black kites steal Hiromi's sandwich was cool. If I lived there I would feed them everyday. |
| the art style brought me back to 2005. i have nothing can say JC staff is working with four animes this season. not sure if they can handle this anime properly in quality at least. |
| That ended way too fast. I want more. I don't even know why I like this cute girls hobbyist niche as much as I do. It's just... so enjoyable for some reason. |

K-on was amazing and will forever be better than this anime that will be lucky to stay with a 6 score over here. K-on made slice of life anime like these fun, something shows like this lacked in 2005 as you say. K-on is love, K-on is live. You suck, your username sucks and your animelist sucks. What a great way to show you haven't hit puberty yet. What's your secret sir/madam? |
| This first episode was a little disappointing....5/10. The last season was Long Riders, and this season this anime, both about ciclysm, female, although this one in the high school and the other in tue university.... anyway i have to watch how evolve, if take the way of the "riding" or take the way of the "competition", although this first episode was a little childhish!!!! |
| An unbelievable first episode. Almost felt like I was watching a movie. Very serene and clam, but also lighthearted and slice of life-ish. Seeing harumi learning to ride was quite nostalgic for me. Definitely going to be one of my favorites this season. P.S carbon frame master race FTW! |
| damn, the forums these days... |
| I can't compare this to Long Riders because I didn't see that anime. But this first episode seemed pretty smooth and nice to watch. I love the backgrounds & the atmosphere. But I don't really like the story, its kinda boring. I think I will give this a few more episodes to decide whether I watch it or not. 3/5 |
| It's alright, designs a bit bland but nothing serious. Riding bikes and sensei is a future milf :)  |
 |
| Super amazing scenery, best in a while. The girls are cute too |
Dashingfella said: The only thing you get is embarrassment. The more you talk the more embarrassing it will become. Trust me, I'm more experienced than you.:)K-on is popular and you're jealous. I get it. |
Dashingfella said: I wonder how long will it take until you realise how stupid the whole situation is and what a retard you had been the whole time. Given your latest reply, I would say 'quite some time'. |
| Pretty cute so far :) |

| New girl, new city, new school, new friends. Hiromi is going to start riing her bike to school which has a lot of hills. OMG. THE THEME SONG. Homegirl can't ride a bike. HAHAHA. Makes me think of me when I first rode one. We meet black-haired beauty and Hiromi goes tumbling in front of her. She gets pulled into helping Hiromi with her biking at a station. HAHAHA. When they should be going to school. AWWW. This is adorable. OOOH. That attention to detail. On the wheels, I saw where they put air in. Nice. it's so pretty. HAHA. Sparklyyy Hiromi rides for a little bit but it's time to go to school. They can't leave the bike at the bike station because it's full so they're walking it. WHOA. MT. FUJI. Man. I just want to visit these places someday. I didn't know that there were birds named kits. WHOAH, biker chick meets up with the girls much faster than she did in the manga. She was looking for the school but it's, like, right there. HAHA. They run away from the kites. ANDDDD they make it to the school. I didn't read this part. I wonder if the biker chick is some sort of teacher. She referred to them as being "crazy students". HAHA. YAY! They are both in the same class!. The opening ceremony commences. OOOH. I can't wait to see the other students. AH. A FOREIGNER. Yup. Looks like biker chick is their homeroom teacher. HAHA. I put this in my manga selection but I was totally listening to Azumanga Daioh's soundtrack while reading it. It gives me that feeling. Ms. Shiki made a nice speech. I wonder if they're going to make a bike club and make her their advisor. OOH. BIKE GANG. CHOO CHOO. Awww. After school, they go to a parking lot to let Hiromi learn to ride a bike again. Does Tomoe know how to ride one? This seems like a good anime about people riding bikes. HAHAHa. Oh, I see the smart chick and the foreigner in this club. These bikes, in the ending theme, are really expensive looking. She'll definitely be getting an upgrade when she learns how to ride a bike better. It's pretty, that's for sure. Can't wait to meet the other characters! OH. IT's like a kids' show where they have a small segment at the end to talk about bikes. NICE. HAHAHa. |
| I am not too enthused by the setting. Will watch it because the art looks amazing. The backgrounds were sublime. |
| As a start, he started on the right foot, although it does not shine for originality of the narrative, and also meets my were'nt, for what concerns the subject matter at the end of the episode. The drawings and character designs are better than I imagined at the beginning. The backgrounds are great, animations appropriate to the context. The catchy soundtrack, not bad at the opening and ending. Perhaps many will think a fair copy of Long Riders, certainly there that started one after another, but the rest is still to be seen; it is useless to give a hasty opinion, now! Nice end-card.  |
 |
| Pretty good. Just not really interested because I've seen better sports Anime. But I'll watch more for sure. |
| That art style is eye candy. |

| I like that fact that it's not just about bicycle as Long rider and the characters look funny |
| This show is basically Bakuon + Long Riders! (Ueda Reina + Bikes) 3/5. |
 |
| BEST ANIME EVAHHHHHHH |
 |
| Nice enough episode and peaceful slice-of-life, think I'll be watching this. Main heroine is kinda dumb not remembering that she has to hit the pedals to actually move the bicycle (that part was a little bit unnecessary) but guess that was just for a start, to show a progress. On the other hand, I like the ending explanation part with both seiyuu. |
| This first episode really bored me and I was hoping it would interest me a little. They start out with her being unable to ride a bike at all? The moment with the kites was funny but that was about it, it seemed to be a drag. |
| This episode was ok, it seems like it is going to be best than the dropped Long Riders... |
 |
| i waited until long riders finished before i started this series but even with just 1 ep i already love the overall feel of this series alot more than long riders just everything is just done better in every way, am yet to say all the characters are nice since havent fully met them in the series yet but even so in long riders the only character that was fun was the blond twin tail girl but anyway i am looking forward to seeing more of this series as it goes on |
| "one step at a time" |
| So after I was cycling a lot with a good bike the whole last year through Tokyo and central Honshu I had to start watching this show! In the beginning of 2017 I was still in Nihon and I saw ads for this show at the Comiket 91 (there were 2 of the bikes there). I couldnt wait but I decided to wait until the end of the winter because while watching this show I for sure want to take out the bike again. ^^ Cycling in winter isnt so beautiful and nice … I also spend quiet a lot of time with my bike in and around Kamakura („tari tari“ <3 ) the last year and started to love this area there as one of my favorite places in Nihon. So this show now after I left Nihon is the right thing to bring back those memories I made there! Today I finally started watching this and the beautiful pictures of the landscape and town got me hooked even more (also cute girls doing cute things × sports)! Yeah, I know its the usual stuff, school club, cute girls, growing into something, competition … But with my background I will enjoy this show for sure (will start the other cycling show from last year, too ;P )! And if a show has those stunning background arts like this one has I will still watch the stupidest show full of missplaced panty shots or big wobbly beowbs or stuff like that. This show here is not like that, too, so no problem at all for me. ^^ And I think it will not be as unrelaxing to watch as „yowamushi pedal“, thats also a good thing. =) Ah yeah: OP/ED songs nothing special, but I liked the OP directing/animation/flow and maybe the OP song will grow on me after a couple of times listening. Anyway, both songs are good material for the cycling playlist! ;D Cant wait to cycle through some sakura trees here with that music in the ears to have a little bit of that Kamakura cycling feeling again. ^^ edit: yeah, OP song is really awesome! |

| Long Riders 2.0, here we go! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Most of the character seem meh especially because of the boring character design but so far it's still quite cute so why not |
 |
| Awesome backgrounds. The artwork here is truly beautiful. It was a decent first episode. Long Riders was pretty much a masterpiece in my book. I don't know what to say about this one yet, but I'm definitely not disappointed. I liked the characters and the overall atmosphere very much. That live-action part was also pretty interesting. |

| Amazing scenery. Will most likely be this show's strongest point. |
| So those two LA girls at the end are just some random people, not even seiyuus? Why the hell i must watch their videos? |
| Ahh, that was such a pleasant start. The vibrant, feel good atmosphere is reminiscent of Long Riders and that live action segment even adds a similarly informative angle to the show. The camera angles are also really creative, particularly the way it feels like it becomes a first person experience at times. |
