Yo! I did not expect this.
I know the format and was ready for the utter defeat so that the story could move forward but no. Author decided to subvert the expectations and gave our main characters a WIN. AT NATIONAL LEVEL ON THEIR FIRST TRY. This is unprecedented. A main character with room to grow, his sudden interest in a sport, couple of senpais with a dream, 1 injured senpai who had a tragic event happened to him in the previous tournament. I swear to God, it checked all the cliche boxes and still delivered something entirely new. Defending champions, I love how it sounds. Now that is a take I have never seen in a sports manga before but have definitely yearned for.
Good stuff!!

3.5/5 - FINALLY, the interhigh has come to an end! I love sports manga but no way am I a connoisseur when it comes to it, however, so far, bicycle racing has been the most intense sport I've read about especially considering that these are just highschool students!
The interhigh spans 3 days but manga-wise, it spanned over 15o chapters, lol! That number is actually pretty average compared to other sports series but this is bike racing where all participants race in one go. It's not a competition where a team goes one-on-one with another team in a single elimination way like in basketball, volleyball or baseball. That said, if you think about it, Yowamushi Pedal has one heck of a dragging story. I felt like I was still in chapter 50's, but I was actually already approaching 200's and that's because there's rarely any remarkable event in each chapters.
Looking back, this has so many internal monologues and flashbacks, most aren't even necessary.
YowaPeda has been in my TBR for a couple of years, but I'm glad that I only read this now when the interhigh has already ended because like I said, this has a really slow plot and I probably would've dropped it out of frustration because the interhigh takes so long to finish.
I don't think I'll continue on with the series right now after volume 27. I think I'll wait another 2 or 3 years before reading again, or at least if I resume reading now, I'll stop at the beginning of the next competition. I don't think I can handle waiting weekly to read uneventful chapters.

The Interhigh is finally over! God, that took ages. I'm very pleased with the result though especially because I thought it'd turn out differently. If it had I might have grown sick of YowaPeda but now it's all good ~

It's been a long ride but one of the major climaxes in the series. Love love Onoda. This book needed to be added because it's my favorite one yet
