Nat here! After ~~falling right the fuck into anime biking hell~~ much deliberation, I've decided to throw Sakamichi Onoda from Yowamushi Pedal into Holly Heights! Along with my muse that's already here, Roxas (

theotherpromise) from Kingdom Hearts. This high school sophomore is exactly 119 pounds of anime nerd and loves to bicycle with his friends. With a good amount of them not in Holly Heights, he'll be looking for more!! Onoda is shy at first, but if you look past his stuttering and mumbling, or if you just let him go off about his favorite magical girl anime, he can be a fast and loyal friend. He'd like for people to join the Altaciere biking club with him too! He'll be training to enter the Inter-High, a nationwide high school men's cycling competition held back home. Don't be surprised if you see him biking around while singing. Singing very, very badly.

I've taken him after his first day at training camp in episode 12, so there will be no spoilers about the Inter-High! He'll be staying in House #1456 with Spitfire. I hope you're okay with anime figurines being left all over the house!! Please feel free to add me on plurk at

festivals!

oh my gosh, thank you so much! i really love our thread on the test drive! also, thank you so much for tagging my gerome in the the fourth wall and introducing him to pizza. aoba and onoda look like they're getting along wonderfully, and i'm so excited to thread more!

AH NO PROBLEM, i'm sorry i had to drop that due to time constraints! and i never would've guessed that was you either lmfao talk about coincidence. but same to you!! idk yowapeda but i might check it out now (finally)

OH GEEZ no, don't even worry about it!! i wasn't mentioning that to make you continue omg ;_; i hope i didn't make you think that. it was fun as it was! but please. if you like boys being stupidly passionate about sports and also friendship. yowapeda is such a trap but it's so great.

nooo don't worry, i know you weren't! I DO LOVE THAT GENRE but i just haven't been able to read yowapeda yet because the art puts me off so much sob

SOON THOUGH

oh no, i understand! it's difficult for me too, and i'm a fan. i power through it because i'm a huge fan of the anime (which has much smoother lines!) and i like seeing the evolution of the artist's drawing skills as the story goes on, if that makes sense?? there is a change in yowapeda's manga! but not by much, i'll admit

ANYWAY some day maybe! i can totally understand being put off by the art, i'm usually so picky lmao
