If there was ever a sports anime designed to bridge the gap between old and new sports manga fans, I think Yowamushi Pedal is it. Read more

Yowamushi Pedal: Grande Road – 24 (End) and Series Review

For all that there are myriad qualities that can make an anime great, there’s just no substitute for sincerity. I’ll say up-front that I expected this finale to be an emotional one.  Expectations can be a pretty big burden to carry, but I had faith that Watanabe-sensei and TMS could […] Read more

Considering how great the episode was, this really sucks… I knew Nabeshima-sensei was going to do it, but it was still a swift kick in the nuts when the credits rolled.  Now it’s like you DVR’d (I almost said “taped”) the Super Bowl, and have to wait a week to […] Read more

I wonder if Manami is a student of Greek mythology? “Come along, Father,” Icarus shouted over the sound of the wind rushing past them. “Smile, we’ve done it, we’ve escaped and we’re free.”  “When my feet are back on solid ground and that island is many, many miles behind us, […] Read more

Not with a bang, but a whimper. It’s tempting to dwell on the memorable way this episode ended – with the plaintive “Himeeee!” and the best end card ever (I love how TMS has been having ever-more fun with these – the sponsor messages are even better, but CR cuts […] Read more

I’ve heard of head-butting, but that’s taking it way too literally. If you’re a sports anime fan, you probably know the announcement that Diamond no Ace was unsurprisingly renewed for another season came this week (hopefully this will be some reward for all of the frustration we’ve endured these last […] Read more

We’re 57 episodes into Yowamushi Pedal, but it feels like the race has just begun. It’s an interesting dynamic we have as we enter the endgame of Yowapeda’s “Grande Road”.  All of the opening gambits, counters, positional play and exchanges of pieces have come down to this – five riders […] Read more

The guest of honor has arrived – let the party begin. I have a few thoughts percolating in my head after this episode of “Grande Road”, the first and most obvious being that it was awesome.  We had pretty much everything you’d want here – feels, GAR, a sentimental look […] Read more

No question about it – these omakes are getting more and more shameless. It was easy to think that this episode was going to be all bout the chimera cyclist Midousuji Akira, who has a way of drawing every bit of attention to himself whenever he’s on-screen.  But for once, […] Read more

If Netero and the Miniature Rose couldn’t do it, did you really think a bunch of bike-riding kids could kill the Chimera Ant King? Yowamushi Pedal continues to roar along at breakneck speed, both on and off the screen.  As the final day of the inter-high screams towards a dramatic […] Read more
