I'm finding that the anime is a bit too slow-paced to hold my attention. Have any of you guys checked out the manga? I find that the manga is much better paced. And while the character art is kind of wonky-looking, you can really feel the :ssj: HOT BLOOD :kamina: when the scratchy action lines start to kick in.

The latest episode had a bit after the credits that wasn't in the manga (actually I think all of them did). I think it's hilarious how Onoda is getting Imaizumi into Love Hime, even though he doesn't really get it. :allears:

Oh my god, haha, they actually released the "Love Hime" theme as a single!

Does it include a karaoke version of it?

Sadly no, it doesn't have Onoda singing off-key and loudly, which was the best part in the anime, so it's actually pretty horrible!

You could try Eyeshield 21. It's got a great sense of "rushing forward" and a feeling of teamwork like in One Piece. The blood isn't quite as hot, but it's a lot of fun, and the art is fantastic!

There's somethin' wrong with that boy.

What, do you have something against mixed race half-human half-chameleons? Are you some kind of racist? :colbert:

As a person who seems to be into pro-cycling, what do you think of the anime (and possibly the manga if you've read it) so far? Are they accurate? Any inconsistencies?

Looks like Volume 16 was just translated. FRIENDSHIP. And they were nice enough to translate the author's notes this time, so that's cool -- you can see the "Making of" Yowapeda! Originally it seems that the main character was supposed to be a girl, I think it'd have been cool to see that too.

Attention, fellow biking comrades!

May this song give you strength -- the strength it takes to climb every hill and race down every slope!!

-- by the way, next time Zorak does an ADTRW Karaoke singathon we should totally suggest this! :neckbeard:

EDIT: Of course, it isn't quite the same without Onoda singing enthusiastically and off-key.

Some day in the future , a kid goon is going to say, "My dad said this anime was pretty good so I think we should watch it."

That will be a very weird day.

Fixed that for you. :v:
