ywpd Spare Bike translation

Pg.1

I had a scary dream last night, sho

Hm

Pg.2

Ah

This isn't good

Damn— I really messed up tsk. I said something ridiculous, sho

"dream"? "Story from a dream"?

That's the most boring topic to talk about, sho!

"I was running a way from something gigantic when I heard a voice of my friend invite me to go together" something

Or "I was floating, like, 30 cm. above the floor" like that

To the listener it's just a whatever, that's how the "story from a dream" is. I'm so tired of myself ugh

My bad, just forget what I said

Pg.3

What happened in there, Makishima!!

Right! Do tell us the details, Maki-chan!!

Why are these two just jump on, sho—!!

Pg.4

No I meant like, the thing you saw when asleep, that thing, sho!

We know that, gaha!

Umhm the scary dream you saw last night!!

Right, it's a dream, sho. So it's just nonsense thing!!

What's the thing that scared you, Makishima!?

Huh!?

What!? Even you, Tadokoro Jin, don't know it!! It doesn't seem to be something like insect or any animals too

What are they...!?

They really into this, sho

They said the dream is exposing our deep psychology too!!

Right!!

And somehow they are so hyped

Pg.5

Calm down, calm down

This really is bad, I for real don't want to talk about it

Toudou...Tadokorocchi. you two got to calm down

This is just a boring story from a dream. Just a whatever thing that can't even make anyone crack a smile, sho!!

It won't change anything even if you hear it

Pg.6

I will decide that after I have listened to it!!

Umhm!! And that's the key of a small talk, Maki-chan!!

Damn it. these two are too positive —!!

Say it, Makishima!!

Let us hear it, Maki-chan!!

Ugh, uh their expectations get even higher

That makes me don't want to say it at all

Ugh the 3 minutes ago me, why did you say such stupid things, sho.

I really let it slipped, sho!!

Isn't there that thing, the document about the club, there are a lot I have to write, right? That's why we came to meet up at canteen, sho. Let's write that first, sho!!

They are not satisfied

Stuff like this can be done later!!

Ah

Pg.7

Wait Toudou, it's really a whatever story. It'd be better you don't hear it, sho!!

Maki-chan

I think of this moment as a precious thing

I think of it as miracle

Of course the race thing too

At first we are in different universities, you were in England and I'm in Japan

And then it came to be this

Sitting across the same table, drinking some tea, writing the documents. Talking about boring things and switching from emotions to emotions....

Pg.8-9

To me, this moment is as if a "dream", Maki-chan

Gaha!! That's true!!

Even if it's a boring story, I don't mind one bit

Because doing that and talking in the same space as you is already fulfilling

Kuha! Toudou...!!

What a passionate guy, sho!

Fine, I will tell you, sho. Out of blue, you, Toudou just drop by my room...

Me!?

Pg.10

I will be your roommate starting today!!

Roommate!?

You said that, sho. So I think

That's scary!!

Like that!

Pg.1

[First Aid Tent B]

It's... not

Not...yet

It's not... It's not over yet

My race is not yet!!

Pg.2

The next is—

Oh yeah, the traffic should be cleared now, they just reported all the athletes have cross the finished

Thank you so much

Midousuji!! Midousuji!!

He should be at the first aid tent near 4th supply station, half way up the hill

-Right now is the award ceremony

Are you alright... sorry.. I'm sorry!!

If I was more—

Hm, isn't there an athlete in this tent

It's not over yet... My..

Pg.3

Not... yet

Pg.4

That means even after retired, and the race has already ended, Midousuji still try to get on the bike

Yeah, aiming for the goal, by himself

What a spirit!! He push himself out of the bed..?

Yeah

But also that's very him, it's not like we ever understand the way he thinks—

That's true, I don't understand what's going on in his head at all but

It is pure... Because he is so pure like that

Pg.5

He put his all till the end

That's why I told Yama to support him

Yama, you need to be Midousuji's conscience

Eh

Maybe that's also too heavy for you— I'm sorry Yama, If only I

Pg.6

Look at that, Midousuji... it's the goal line

You can't hear me, huh

We have crossed the finished now, there. Finished...

That's enough. Your race for this year is ended.

So now

Pg.7

Just rest

You... don't need to try so hard anymore

Oh? Yama? Yeah, I came to the race. Yes he's with me near the goal line.

The school bus... Alright I will tell them too

Right, no it's fine

Is that so— you had it rough, I'm sure

Ishigaki-kun?

Is that his voice?

Pg.8

Thank you for you guys hard work too

Where am I ?

Right you guys did great, even got the second day number tag too right

Wouldn't soon enough you will win the total too, huh. I might be here and there but I did come to watch the goal

What about goal line

What happened to the race?

I was fighting with Unaizumi-kun in the rain....

Relay?

The relying power?

The power to rely?

What Ishigaki-kun said— the riddle words

Midousuji what you lack right now is

Pg.9

The power to rely on others

....Rely?

What even is that

Ah... No use thinking about it. I will

Forget about it soon enough anyway

The rain has...stop?

Dry wind to the highland—

Pg.10

I'm sorry, Midousuji— I keep giving painful thoughts

Oh did you see that Ishiyan. That girl just now was so cute. As I thought, there are a lot of cute girl here in Shibuya!

Things said from someone who already graduated like me probably sounds so wrong, since the team is depend on the current students...

So I stopped saying anything, but

3.5km. left Kyotofushimi is lining up with Sohoku #2. It's two of them!

Come! Midousuji!!

I regret doing that a little now

If only I

Pg.11

Had tell other more strongly to support you

Maybe you wont have to retire for the second time, something like that

There! "Mirimiru Good" !!

You sure you don't want to come too, Ishiyan!

Same day ticket... It's a little far back there are still some left, you know?

I'm good

Pg.12

Well you said you have something to do so I guess it can't be help

It's really nice to see you after a while

Right, the story of when Mizuta couldn't decide who to be the next captain is so funny

Hahaha

Do your best in Tokyo, Ishiyan!

Of course, you in Kyoto too!

Tell Tsuji for me too that when I go home during winter, let's all have a meal together!

Got it! What are you doing after this?

Pg.1

Falls, In Tokyo, Shibuya

This is one of the leading major stations in the capital, where the Tokyu Toyoko Line, Inokashira Line, and others arrive and depart. The Yamanote Line and Ginza Line also pass through, as does the Hanzomon Line.

As a source of culture, information, and fashion, it continues to change constantly

It is a place well known for sightseeing and business as well

Er... Then I turn left here, right

Oh it's actually to the right? Huh? Ah I'm sorry. Or is it left?

Sigh... It's really like a maze here. There are a lot of people too...

Eh...I don't see this board, where is it?

Pg.2-3

I sure get lost every time I'm in Shibuya!

Even when I have a map...

I never get lost in Kyoto, tho

There are too many turns here, lots of hill too.... And the buildings are so tall too...

Pretty sure this city is not for me, im the least fit, very confident about that!! Even when My university is in Tokyo..

But it's not time to be talking!! The time...

Patience, Koutarou, be patience and keep searching

For that store, that guy went through thing to meet up with me waiting!!

Pg.4

I'm coming in....

Is he here.. no!? Then where? Oh if they going for the classic vibe, this store does look like it has history.

Wait no, did I enter the wrong shop? He wouldn't be in a store like this, would he?

Excuse me—....

Retreat!!

Oh Ishiyan!!

Pg.5

It's been a while!

Ihara!!

Right— it's been quite some time!!

Good, I got the right store

You didn't change

Hm— so he is "Ishiyan"?

Yes yes

He's my friend and we rode together at Inter-High

Amazing—

Pg.6

Isn't he a decent guy, so well put together like this

Eh!?

Right, he would be popular

What's this all of sudden..

Going to Meiso University, came from Kyoto and now living alone, being in bicycle club doing sport....

I'll introduce him to friends of mine

Thank youu

Wha- what are you agreeing on your own, Ihara!?

That's Shizuku-san, she's a 3rd year of high school, doing part-time here. She said her grandmother is a regular here so she has connections to work here

So you have girl acquaintances back in Kyoto, right?

No no

Pg.7

She just came to serve this

Eh!?

Service!? He asked her name and how she gets to works here after just that!?

Ihara Tomoya, this guy. He is gifted with communication ability of a monster level!!

Now I remember seeing him talking so casually with the girls from other class back in high school too...!

Then you talking to her about me or...

Yeah I did. I told her that I'm waiting for a friend from Kyoto right now and then she was curious about what kind of person you are

Oh—

The ability to talk to anyone, and get close to anyone.... I should learn from him too

Sorry for the wait—

Pg.8

Right both you and Tsuji goes to college in Osaka so you sometimes run into eachother—

Oh— Ihara

Yea hi Akihisa, you come around this hour?

I go to Culinary School, you see my family owns a restaurant after all.

Lately I get to be in the shop's kitchen too

Ooh that's impressive

In high school, I thought it would be an easy business. But now that I really get into doing it , it is hard and a very busy one

Your dad looks so kind, though

He's strict when at home, when I told him I'm going for speciality school he immediately told me to train at his friend's store

Hearing stories about Kyoto like this

Haha

It make my heart sting again

Pg.9

"Run into eachother on a train" right, that makes me jealous....

I brought you some souvenir from Kyoto

Ooh really? The one from Kawaidou! Isn't that the best one!!

And did you hear from Kyofushi, Midousuji became captain now

Yeah, I heard it from Mizuta and Yama. They formally emailed me

Pg.10

This year summer Inter-High, you went to cheer for them didn't you?

How was it?

Putting his all into the ride, alone

Pg.1

The bike that lining up with Toudou's Ridley... What!? This model, this logo... The chipped on the gears

No no, no way that's true..!!

But no matter how I look at it...

It's exactly like Makishima's bike!!

It's Tadokoro, I'm coming in!!

Hey Toudou, the bike in front of the room—

Pg.2-3

Is....

Yo!

You seem to be doing well, sho, Tadokorocchi

Pg.4

Why are you here, Makishimaaa!!!

Kuha! Did I surprise you, sho, Tadokorocchi!! Actually I... Ouch ouchouch that's hurt, sho

You really are Makishima!!

Wait.. that's hurt

What are you doing here!? Why here!? Did you come back to Japan now!?

My legs!! My legs not touching the ground anymore, sho

So the bike in front of the room really is it huh, for real!!

Your welcome is too strong, sho

Pg.5

MAKISHIMA!! GAHAHA!!

N- WOAH my bones really going to break!!

What are you doing here? Is it term break right now? Is it any important day in your family?

cough cough

Welcome to Japan Gahahah

How long are you going to stay here?

First let me speak too, sho

Right, Toudou!!

This is perfect timing, Makishima do you still have time!? We have a race next week

Actually we were looking for

Pg.6

Second climber!!

Pg.7

And, eh!? Makishima... Wait

Now that I look again... You are wearing the jersey!?

Kuha

Because Toudou said "wear this!"

The Tsukushiba's... jersey

Looks like you finally pieced it together.

That's right, Tadokoro Jin

Really... This must be a joke... gaha... Oi!!

He did agree to it, in the next mountain race

Pg.8

We will be each other ally and ride on the same team!

Pg.9

Really, Makishima!!

I get to be your teammate once again and...

Yeah

Be in race..

Kuha

In the same race again!!

Ugh he caught me

Short period time studying abroad? For a month? At here!?

What, it's sister school with your uni in England!! Really!?

Yeah!!

If you're coming here, why not contacted me!

Eh?..... Well... mmm

Hmp you didn't knew

You came without knowing?!

I finished my practice, went to shower and then come to club room... To find Makishima in there, crazy story like that

But the even more crazy thing is!

The two that fought for the mountain line

Pg.10

On that day of Inter-High

Then earned first and second place will be riding on the same team.

What kind of cycling will this be, what kind of race will this be..!?

With that Makishima from Sohoku and Toudou from Hakone Academy!!

Damn! I can only imagine the miracle!!

[Tsukushiba University, the fourth dormitory]

Pg.1

It's unfamiliar to see you in black jersey

It feels like a lie, Maki-chan

Kuha! Is it to the point you wouldn't notice it's me, sho?

The slope down here has some potholes so look out fori t

Alright

Oh

Pg.2

To be with you

Did the problem about washing your clothes make it rough you mentioned during summer any better yet?

Not at all.. guess it's really because the water there is hard water. I did try lot of solutions

But compared it to here, it really does rough

Going down the same hill

I couldn't even imagine this when I climbed up

Haha But with dancing like that, of course I will notice

And we will ride in the same race after this

Jus thinking about it already make me feel like I can set a new record on this narrow peak

I will have to let Shuusaku and Tadokoro Jin know when I get back

Pg.3

That I have found ourselves a super climber!!

Pg.4

So now....

Toudou seems to be in extra good mood ....

The next race is called "mount Rokumizo race"

The first half has a lot of ups and downs route, and it gets more hard at the end

Alright

Did you take a look at the course map yet?

No...

I understand he probably excited to be in the same race as me

Because I, too, am excited...

I will look at it later, sho

But there's one thing I don't understand

The thing Toudou said on the peak

Pg.5

What does he mean by "allies"

That's not right Maki-chan, it's as allies

"Allies"? Is he going to give me water bottle and stuffs like that in the race?

Or he will sign me up in the race in Kinjou stead?

Maybe he will help show me around during this exchange student program?

No that would be so noisy, I will reject him in that case

On top of that, the last thing he said—

Pg.6

In that race, we will be wearing the same jersey

!? Same jersey ...?

What!?

What does that even means, sho!

We have been reunited for, like, 10 minutes

Does he like my black jersey? He wants to wear this in the race too??

It caught his eyes that much!?

I mean, I did choose this because I want to surprise him but like....

That serious eyes, and smug face!

He's waiting for a good response from me, sho! Fine! I will give one that can be interpreted in many ways

Pg.7

Just cover it up

Aiyah...

You can't hide your glad and confusion with that expression, Maki-chan!

I get you. I'm also so desperate even though I accept my excitement

I got through—!!

Let's go down together

Yeah! Let's go

Toudou is the type to just efficiently move on even if only himself understands it after all

Wahahah

I will just slowly piece it together

[they are waiting for the traffic]

Ah.. Toudou... About what we talked just now. You are going to sign me up for the race in Kinjou stead?

Pg.8

Of course, just leave it to me!!

Thanks a lot...!

Wahahah!!!

Wahahah, sho!!

I knew it, that's really what he meant

Oh just the entrance is fine, sho

I know my way from here, thanks, sho

Pg.9

By the way, Is your university also around here? How long it takes on the bike?

Do you not understand?

Don't make me laugh

Ah!

Pg.10

The same one as yours, the same Tsukushiba University

It's the same mark, sho!

You mentioned in the letter you founded a new club, sho, that means....

With the red jersey....?

Pg.11

It's here

I will show you the way to the club room

Wait

Hold on does this mean

The reason I feel like I have seen this place before, because it's in Toudou's picture!

The reason there's no road racing club in last year pamphlet, because you've just founded it this year!

And I

Pg.12

I came studying abroad at your university!?

It's still not that organised of a club room, though

Pg.13

This means

These past few days we might have walked past eachother without noticing

Damn

Everything connected to everything it kinda makes me sick, sho

All the little things that has been bothering me are slowly getting solved, sho!

That's why you know the details of my exchange student program so well, huh, Toudou

Pg.14

This one is yours, Maki-chan

The size probably is perfect

Red jersey

Pg.15

The sleeves...

It's decided, we will wear the same jersey

While being on the same team, participating in the same race

Me and you?

Race? What? The same?

Kuha! You've got to be kidding!

I now understand!!

So you meant this, huh, damn it

Pg.16-17

This is what you meant by "Allies", huh Jinpachi!!

That's right, Maki-chan!!

Pg.18

You are lying right... hold on..

This is unbelievable, sho

I'm looking forward to the next time we meet, I will wait for it

Right! I can't believe it too!! Maki-chan, Maki-chan, Maki-chan!!!

Are You and me really going to ride on the same team, sho!!

Pg.19

Huh!?

The bike that lining up with Toudou's Ridley... What!? This model, this logo... The chipped on the gears

No no, no way that's true..!!

But no matter how I look at it...

It's exactly like Makishima's bike!!

It's Tadokoro, I'm coming in!!

Pg.20

Yeah that's right, Fuku

I'm looking forward to the next race at mount Rokumizo

Pass it on to Tatezaki-san too

Sure

Pg.1

The promised you had made at the race in summer last year

Be more prepare, you idiots!!

You, who coming late once, climbed up with a smug face

A year later in summer

I hurriedly go as soon as I got the message

On that peak without a name

You turned around to meet me

Pg.2

And this time

Without any promise being made, on this narrow road of Tsukuba

With the jersey left waiting to be handed out. At the day like that

Pg.3

You just appear so nonchalantly!!

Pg.4-5

Maki-chan!!

Before my eyes

Pg.6

Red jersey...

....?

Why are you in a place like this, sho

Toudou!

Pg.7

Why are you here

In Japan, at this peak, at this moment

This moment

Is it real?

Yes It is, there's no way I would mistake your dancing

Nor that hair color

Or it could be an illusion, the illusion I created?

But then be it, if what happen before my eyes right now is created by some god then

Pg.8

I am endlessly grateful for this, God of Mountain!!

Pg.9

Toudou...

Maki-chan

Have you been doing well?

Yea...

Toudou..

No no no hold on, sho, why Toudou!? Why's he here, sho, oi oi

Why's he at this place!? A place like you will be when you are lost like that

I was thinking there's someone standing so arrogantly in the middle of the road

Ugh hes in the way

But then i can see it's a red jersey, on top of that it's Toudou!?

Pg.10

No way. There's no way such coincidence could happen, sho!!

Kuha! Is the jet lag still get to my head!?

It must be just some random guy walking in a red ish clothes and say something like "matcha" and my ears just heard it as "maki-chan" like that

That was close— I almost excitedly hug some random guy I don't know, sho

I really am crazy!!

There's a lot of guy looking like Toudou anyway [<- this is Makishima's level of remembering people]

Let's just ignore him and keep going

Pg.11

Oiiiiiiii!!! Come Onnnnn!!! Maki-chaaaaaan

Whoah a real one?!!

What are you even doing here, sho!

That's my line, Maki-chan! But also

You were just going to bike pass me right!? Even after I firmly locked our eyes and said something to you!!

Come on, I just, well... Maybe I mistook or something...

Mistook me?!

Pg.12

It's been a while

Pg.13

Jinpachi!

Kuha! Yeah!

I'm here to race you

Pg.14

Race!

Since you always write it at the end of the letter

That you want to ride beside me

I'm here to grant that, sho, from England.

With a reason like that...

Pg.15

With a reason like that, sho!

Kuha! My university hold a exchange program with the university around here

From Toal Wesson University, for short period of 1 month, to Tsukushiba University in Japan

How did he knows, sho!?

On top of that I can barely remember the tsuku-something university, and he can just say it easily!?

I just asked Kinjou, to apply for some race of university, sho!

Be glad, Toudou

That means if I went to student affair office that day, your name would be on there

We can be ride in the same race!

Pg.16

As each other opponent!

Is it really okay for a wish like this to be granted

Such thoughts that feel like trying to grasp the cloud

That's not right, Maki-chan

Pg.17

The thought I have had ever since school year

I just, want to be in the same university as Maki-chan, and ride a long side eachother

Then I will be going, too, to Meiso uni with you!! Wahahah

Huh!? You mean I can't sign up!?

As "allies"

In that race

Huh? Allies?

Maki-chan, you and me

Pg.18

We will be riding while wearing the same jersey!!

Pg.1

Maki-chan

I imagined something stupid

Of that last jersey left in the club room will be

Yours

Pg.2

Just now

When Tadokoro Jin told me about Takane-san

We should hand it to him

I realised

We don't have time

Hand him that last jersey

In me

Pg.3

There's still the stupid expectation left in me

It's so miserable. When Tadokoro Jin tell me to give Takane-san that jersey.

In that moment, my heart was against it like a child

Pg.4

Phew

Finally at the peak

The time is... In 14 mins, huh. This is not good

I meant to throw it away, still...

I will try this path today then

(the sign: mount shimeji, mount ashizuri)

Pg.5

If he's going to participate, tomorrow is the last day... Right

No stop thinking about that!

Now I need to focus on practicing

Pg.6

This route's road is narrow and has a lot of blind corner

But it's not bad

There also some stray sand blowing but, woah

At the peak of it, there's a place for paragliding

Pg.7-8

And a good scenery

The ridges are clear on both sides

Today's scene as well can be looking so far away

But

I completely forgot to set timer...

Whatever. Not like it can be a new record or something

Pg.9

At the next race, the mount Rokumizo race.... The one that won it would... certainly be Meiso

The ace being 3rd year, Tatezaki-san with Fuku, Shinkai and Ishigaki working as assistant

Pg.10

Their 2nd and 3rd years are also strong after all.

Hard to beat.... No

It would ended without us moving any limbs, again

Red one

Too bad, if only you have one more assistant. You can change this whole situation

This time it shows how much difference our team power are

So I'll look forward to the next battle

Pg.11

One more..."climber"... right

How about I just cancel this race, and just enjoy the university festival like Shuusaku said!!

No...

We found him, we did find him...

That one more assistant..

Let's fight with all the might

Bite the bullet

..... let's head back and then contact Takane-san.. yea

Pg.12

Kuha!

What's with this road

This narrow road with so many blind corners

Pg.13

Sands also blowing, woah

Kuha! But that's good, sho!

The road is sloping!

I will just climb it up!!

I heard of the wide road with ropeway but I got into the totally wrong one, sho!

Pg.14

Hm?

There's a person climbing up, fast...

Oh it's a motorbike maybe, right, being that fast on a bicycle isn't something common

The scenery here is nice, so a lot of riders come here to visit

What's that, is something wrong with the motorbike. That person moves so weird for a while now

They keeps

Pg.15

Swaying their body left and right!

Swaying body...?

No, no way

What are you in denial for, what are you even thinking, Toudou Jinpachi!!

You threw it away, no mistakes, you did throw it away

It wouldn't be possible

That guy, right now

Pg.16

Is in England right now!!

Ugh the tree cast shadow, I cannot see.

I have to confirm it

That must be a broken motorbike, that's why they keeps swaying

No way, that's definitely not him

That spider-guy I know

Pg.17

The spider-guy...

Pg.18

When he does the dancing, he moves both his body and bike swaying to the sides a lot

No, no way. It's must not be it

He shouldn't be here

This is Japan, it's mountain in tsukuba!!

So what's that!

What's that dancing I've seen for countless of time that it burned into my mind!!

The spider-guy I know

Pg.19-20

He climbs with his hair flew with winds and movement

And a smug face

Huh?

Pg.21

Haah!?

Maki..... chan..!!

□the fate pulls them to each other

Red jersey...

Toudou?

Pg.1

Japan, Ibaraki prefecture, Tsukubamori city. Tsukushiba university

In the fourth dormitory of campus, is a facility made for special accommodation

It's 3rd morning for Makishima Yusuke as an exchange student in Japan

Ugh I forgot to charge my phone, last night and I have class in the afternoon...

Didn't have a chance to contact Kinjou at all, sho!

Pg.2-3

I will definitely call him today!! For sure!! And then!

Have him put me in the race, sho!

They are imitating the Maiin Subway?!

Where did you even remember those sound...

From anime huh?

Pg.4

Ah this won't do

I meant to get rice for today breakfast but then I let my thoughts wandered

And got croissants, yogurt, bacon and egg then fruit, a full set...

I keep eating what I'm used to in England

But more importantly!!

Pg.5

[guide, Tanaka-san, a 3rd year student] is thinking

..... I wonder if Yusuke-san has a japanese relative. His japanese is so natural and fluent

Though sometimes it's weird [HEY] like how he end his sentence [...]

Pg.6

Is he half-japanese ah maybe a quarter! [Wrong] that's what she thinks

Oh well

I can barely find time to, sho

Makishima!!

Pg.7

What's wrong, so sudden. Yeah it's fine, I'm about to head to class.

I was with Arakita and Machimiya just now though.

Is that so, you are in Japan!?

Shizuoka prefecture, Kamiji city, Yonan university campus

The race!? Really? That's good!!

Yeah!! Yeah! Yea.....

So you are asking me to do everything for you huh... [Kinjou understand things fast]

Hahaha you worded it so bad, sho! Kuha!!

Don't kuha me!

Pg.8

Well I understood now, I think there's possibly a race opening for registration.

I will ask for advice from the senpais

On the other hand, doesn't your university have bicycle club?

Ah... Here in Ibara- uh Tochiki, the tsuku ∆[]§ [he mumble to cover up] university

Wouldn't asking people from your side to help be faster, did you try asking them?

Yeah well that can't be done. I checked it from last year pamphlet, sho

They have cycling club here but...

Pg.9

(on the shirt: Tsukushiba University, road racing club)

Pg.10-11

There's no road racing club!!

Let's go for a practice shall we, Tadokoro Jin!!

Yeah, Toudou!!

Right I was going to ask. About Takane-san, what do you think about him?

Hmm

We only have 2 weeks until the race, Takane-san also need to be prepared

If he's going to be participating in the next race, I think we should hurry and give him that

Pg.12

That last jersey left in our club room

I heard from Itokawa that you said it's "hard to apply to real thing"

But we lacks of numbers

He would be of help at least in some way isn't he

If he's going to be on our team then the registration and entry is due tomorrow!

Pg.13

For climbers, the climb is a sacred realm. I know how you feel. You don't want to hand out the jersey to someone with mediocre ability

Especially when it's the team you built yourself

I didn't mean to be pushy all of sudden. But

We don't have anymore time

Didn't Itokawa also say the same thing, I agree with him

Pg.14-15

Someone like "super climber" won't be so easy to find

Pg.16

Was that sound of bicycle... Two of them?

Already out of sight, huh

Pg.17

You are right— seem like I was being too stubborn

Did you not throw away all your hope yet...Toudou Jinpachi

After today's practice, let's do it. That jersey will be of Takane-san

Yeah the more people the better

Pg.18

Pg.1

So...

To make it short..

Switch to that one and all is good right

sho

Pg.2-3

Arrived at Japan safely without any problem, we, group B, has been riding on countless of train. Oh guess it's not that 'no problem' I have to wait for an hour because the luggage just won't come out

Also these two have lotta energy, sho

What, that's not Ogawa(brook) sho!! And there's no Suisha(waterwheel) too!?

They are now going to the university

Guess I get jet lagged that's why I'm so tired, sho

Is that from some anime?

After this, we get to university, and there will be a person to show us around, the student affair office take it from there and something something reception...

And then dormitory huh... ah I feel like I can sleep here

Yea at this time...

Pg.4

Contacting Kinjou, sho!!

He must be surprised right, even that Kinjou

We can even ride in the same race again

For 2 races or 3 races, kuha!! We are wearing different jersey this time, though!!

Makishima! Black also suits you

Kuha! It's also strange to see you in that unfamiliar jersey, sho! This time we are each other enemies, sho!

Something like that

Pg.5

Kin...

Last stop, Tsukubamori station—

Damn it, falling asleep make the train move in a blink

Pg.6

Eh?

This place...

I've seen it before, sho!

Pg.7

Is it because of the jet lag or something, umm

I feel like it has something to do with clothes

The red one

What the- even these trees felt like I've seen it before!?

Pg.8

What's with this place!?

Had I been here before!?

No, no way, sho. It's more like recently

It's more like it's in a picture or something, the picture I saw recently with those trees line up!

And a guy who spreads both of his arms out, picture

With that background!

Pg.9

The guy who.. spreads... both his arms!?

Both his arms... Color red!?

hmp

There's no way...

I've just had a wild imagination, sho

Pg.10-11

I thought this is the university you applied for, Toudou

Speaking of, Jinpachi, yesterday... What's his name again, Takane-san? How did he do, Jin-kun brought him.

Right

Well, there's nothing exciting to say

Pg.12

He's not on the level of "super climber" that can fight in the race immediately

There's nothing easy to find without any struggling

Is that so—

But you know, you scared me when you just started running out of blue. It's that right? You got a mail from Jin-kun about Takane-san

Hm!? Oh yeah right. It's something like that

It would be nice if we found one soon, right

Pg.13

Super climber

Right it's probably on the pamphlet introducing this sister school

It's a welcoming gesture after all

Right, sho

Pg.14

My goal for now is

To wear the black jersey on this bike

Pg.15

And surprise you, sho!

Toudou, kuha!

I'm really back in Japan, was falls always this good of a season

I already forgot about it, sho

Pg.16

Feel like something good going to happen, sho!

Orientation, meeting up with other groups

Looking around the town, welcome party and then some speech

The first night that exchange student arrived at Japan

Makishima doesn't have any energy left to contact Kinjou

Pg.1

Japan, Ibaraki prefecture, Tsukubamori city

Tsukushiba University

Woah— look at that Jinpachi

Those are characters from the Block Campaign right. Ah that's Kamoneko

Damn this getting me hype up

Pg.2-3

Well it's almost university festival afterall. The festival of here, Tsukushiba university, is well known

There's a dance show on stage, shops, lots of stuffs going on for 3 days, guess people are fire up.

Especially the parade floats of the fine art club is also famous isn't it?

It's exciting huh university festival!!

What should we eat— what should we watch—!

Ah!! I wonder if those famous bands will come too, like Fish Girl!! Will they come too!!

Ah

Pg.4

What shop will us, the road racing club, will be doing!

We have important race schedule near those day so we won't be doing anything this year, while..

Grill chicken...skewers grill... Wait no Jin-kun has a bakery so maybe burger!!

Isn't that nice? Right Jinpachi

It does sound delicious but...

Burger shop!!

We gotta hurry and prepare for it, Jinpachi!

We talked about this at meeting right? Guess you didn't listen

How are we gonna manage the queue line right— maybe handing out the queue number. But again I'd rather serve the freshly one

Can we make french fries done at the same time... Would be hard

So you are the type to assume your shop will go well and make too much before hand

What about our shop name!?

Well fine, I will tell you about our club way to go one more time

Pg.5

Well our practice sum up in the morning, you can have fun in the afternoon

Sigh

But I thought Me, Jinpachi and Jin-kun, we will get to be shop owner swamped in works, till we don't have time to sleep....and spending fun time together

What do you even think university festival is?

Dont feel so down, Shusaku

How about you go invite that girl senpai from the karate club to look around the festival with you?

Pg.6

How... How can you say such a thing.....

I told you, didn't I, Jinpachi! Before anyone, You

What about her? You guys broke up? Wait no... You didn't even go out together

You didn't listen to me at all huh Jinpachi

Yea I didn't listen at all

Ummm

That senpai from karate club..

During this festive of our university time

She goes to England as an exchange student!!

Pg.7

Pg.8

At that sister school there for a month

Why is everything happening at the same time as uni fest—

Study abroad for short period at Toal Wesson University

No no what delusion are you in, Toudou Jinpachi

Toudou Jinpachi!!

Pg.9

What are you even imagining right now

What are you hoping for right now

About that exchange thing

Are the students from the other university also coming here, how many of them?

I think she said 10.. or was it 12?

She said it's about learning Japanese culture and language

Is there the name list?

It should be at the Student Affair Office, isn't it? Probably being put up there, there's one of senpai's too

Why do you ask, Jinpachi? You have interest in english people?

Pg.10

What's wrong—? Are you going to toilet?

There's no way he would be coming

Leaving japan to be coming back to japan for studying abroad program, something like that

Pg.11

There's no way he would do such weird thing!!

That guy!!

"that guy" would?

100 m. left

Just 100 m. more

On the other hand...

Pg.12

If it's that guy, then there's a chance he would!!

Yo Toudou!!

Pg.13

Tadokoro Jin!!

Gaha! Nice, I was looking for you

For me..

Yeah. What? Were you in a rush?

Ah... Not really

The race, falls "Mount Rokumizo Race"

is the same as Mount Tsukuba Race, it's main is mountain

It's the chance to beat Tatezaki-san from Meiso, important race to get our revenge!!

Ah...right

Pg.14

You said you want one more climber right!

He's a year older than us, 2nd year engineer majored, Takane-san!

Kutsunoi-san from cycling club introduced him for me!! He also has some interest in road racing!

We just got back from riding together, from mount Tsukuba!!

Takane-san can climb! May not be your level but he climbs faster than me!!

I'm Takane, I always liked so I climb it a lot

100 m. more

Be glad Toudou!!

Pg.15

—No

What were you going crazy about Toudou Jinpachi

You came at the perfect time!

Oh well— I don't have much experience in racing though

Get yourself together, the possibility is close to nothing

Checking it is pointless

It sure it pointless

Just like what Tadokoro Jin said, right, this is before the important race

Do you have time to go change and try climbing? With Takane-san I mean

Focus

Pg.16

Don't get your hope up

Of course! I will go back to my room and bring my bike

Let's meet at the foot of the mountain, 30 minutes from now is that alright

Yeah I will be there

Pg.1

Wait no, sho

Fall clothes taking much space than I thought, sho

Will this fit in the suitcase

Let's just leave it here

But also...

What about this...

Oh no almost forgot my own studying tools, sho

Study abroad— it's a short period studying abroad

To Japan

...kuha, aren't I also unusually getting excited

Pg.2

Toudou...

Because you sent me such excited letter

It makes me want to ride in the same race as you, sho!!

Pg.3

Once again!

Summer in Europe is short. Around when August ended,

the cold breeze starts to blow as the fall season starts too.

I applied for the one-month studying abroad during falls program held by my university and got approved

It sure sounds weird for a japanese to study aboard at japan but apparently the main goal is to be in culture and language lecture

Toal Wesson University has a sister school in Japan in Tochigi prefecture.. ah wait was it Ibaraki prefecture? Maybe? A lot of students there also come here for studying abroad

It was.. Tsuku.. er— something university, sho!

Pg.4

They gave me a map so it shouldn't be a problem, sho!!

Alright

When I'm there, I should contact Kinjou right away

Gotta ask him if there's any race in falls I can still sign up

Or I will just have him put me in, sho!

Kinjou— he's that type of a guy that manages thing done nicely anyway

The jersey I will be wearing in race there... Can't use the Sohoku anymore

The black with green accents one I bought!

Pg.5

I will wear this, sho!

Would Toudou even noticed me, sho

Since it's a different jersey so I guess not? It's not like I'm so stand out

In middle of the race when he realises I'm there

Why are you here!?

Yo!

Is when our battle begins, sho!

Pg.6

Kuha!

Right

That means I have to bring my bicycle too, sho!

Pg.7

Water bottles, jersey, helmet, and shoes...

I somehow made it in time, sho alright let's see, the train to airport will arrive in...

Gaah!! Huh!? In 6 minutes!? 6 minutes!?

Which shoes should I... ugh this one is fine!

Will I make it?! With all these luggage!! I have to make it, sho!!

Pg.8

I'm sorry, sho, brother.

[he asked him for a ride]

Pg.9

Buy some souvenir for Steve too

He's covering for me today

By Steve-san you mean that guy from your shop.. the bearded one?

Yes that's him

I think he quite likes the matcha snacks from last time

Ok matcha...sho

Oh right, do you flying alone?

Ah no, they told us to divided into a group with other people, so I will be on the plane with

The other 2 people

They are the same year as you? Interested in Japan?

Yeah..

Pg.10

In an absurd way

(im not gonna repeat the english part sorry about that)

I will introduce them, sho

Pg.11

The excited one is Kolly

The even more excited one is Entasha, sho.

You must have had it rough, Yusuke

Thank you for dropping me off, brother. I'm not there to make you breakfast for a month, guess you have to do something with that yourself

Well then

Pg.12

I will be going now, sho

Right

Breakfast is such a hassle

Pg.13

There won't be any sakura, sho

(note pokedon likely be the parody of pokemon in this)

Pg.14

Will I be fine after this

And these two are overly hyped up

Pokedon, huh?

Guess I will be searching for it too at the race, sho
