How come I can't send Arakita-san asks? That's like keeping your phone turned off. I'm going to shake his bepsi next time smh

He’s a huge jerk. There’s your answer.

My younger cousin was watching Sleeping Beauty the other day and it reminded me of you. Everything reminded me of you. The dresses. The singing. The fire-breathing dragon.

That’s so sweet of you! ♥

The dragon does ring a bell…

[sleepingclimbertoudou-blog-deac]

What?!

Toudou was… surprised, to say the least. “Surprised” was a gross understatement, but it was the only appropriate way to describe his reaction. Manami, out of all people? But the boy was as innocent as a baby lamb - or so he had thought, anyway.

He was even more surprised when the assistant actually gave Manami his number.

He paid and flashed the cashier another smile before grabbing Manami’s hand. “Alright, Romeo, come on,” he said, dragged him to an empty table and sat him down. 

"You never cease to surprise me, Manami."

[hakogakuwings]

Manami took a seat across the older teen, tucking himself in under the table.

"What do we do with the numbers?" Manami didn't see any indication of the female cashier complying, but he could've missed it easily. "Do they become new acquaintances? That's a forthright way to make friends!"

The youngest climber first dug into the ice cream with his eyes. Then he looked over to Toudou's strawberry cone. He looked over to the condiment counter, then back again. "Uhhmmnnn.."

"Wait - here - !!"

Before Mr. Sleeping Beauty could get a straight answer out, he went off on his own again, never ceasing in his abundant energy, and walked up to the condiment counter. He picked out two tiny plastic spoons, a couple napkins, and moved to sit back down with that perpetual smiley face.

"Here, Toudou-san!" Using the spoon, he scooped a little ball of ice cream from the previously untouched cone. "I actually wanna try a bite of yours, so here I'm being fair." So assuming he'd get a taste, without permission yet, he went ahead and...

The tiny spoonful made a beeline for Toudou's lips. "Aaaah," Manami incited, his head tilted with a lopsided grin.

Once upon a time.... there was a yankee that cursed at a princess, and a prince that was tolerated by all.

[hakogakuwings]

WOW, GUYS, I'M STILL ALIVE, I PROMISE. I'm going to drag allrounderbeast & sleepingclimbertoudou back in with me since they've been inactive too. Sorry for the long absence!

"Eh, whatever. It wasn’t such a big deal." 

He shrugged and followed the younger teammate inside the store, finding relief when the AC hit his skin. It was already annoyingly hot outside for his standards, so they could have stayed there forever for what mattered to him. 

"So what do you wanna get?" 

[hakogakuwings]

Relieved, honestly. A silent exhale. Manami fluffed the back of his hair as he strode toward the back of the store near the glass door display freezers. "I wanna get--" Nothing but drinks there. A big question mark popped over his head. He turned around. Ah! There, behind the row was a smaller freezer. He missed it somehow.. Aha. "I wannnnnnna get...."

"Hmmm..." He pressed his fingers down against the cool glass, peering into the multitude of options. "Did you know Toudou-san's favourite ice cream is strawberry? I'm getting that." In one corner of the freezer, there were strawberry, banana, and mango all mixed in together without labels. He slid the small door open and grabbed a white package. In the light, it seemed a bit pink through the plastic. The kid nodded to himself. Got the right one.

Holding it up for Arakita to see, he smiled, waiting for his friend's turn.

YOWAPEDA SPOILERS. (Spoilers if you only follow the anime and english scanlations. Otherwise, it’s trivia) Friend on twitter asked me if Makishima’s brother being a fashion designer or not was a headcanon, and then things exploded. www

Source is from a friendly twitter who gathered up all the info that Watanabe-sensei talked at an autograph session about the characters. You can view here. If you also browse through the #pedal night hashtag on twitter, you’ll see lots of other stuff!

Since the info is from twitter, a warning that there may be mistakes, and Watanabe-sensei may choose to change his ideas in the future! So nothing is really set in stone.

Bold parts updated 06/06/14! My comments in ((double parentheses))

why do some fans consider manani as 'evil'?

Ahh, let me try to answer you by memory since I don’t have the volumes on me now to check…

"Evil" is definitely not the correct word. I think fans were surprised by the 180 degree change in Manami’s usual personality on third day IH (what actually made me like him better) that they call him that out of reflex. But he’s not evil.

Third day IH spoilers behind cut.

"I dunno. Maybe one about spor-" 

That literally left him in cold blood for a few seconds. He was holding his hand and dragging him? The first solution that came to mind was shoving the smaller male into the traffic and watch aside, but luckily it was quickly shrugged off. 

Should he beat him? What was he even doing? It wasn’t unpleasant, but it seemed rather uncalled for. “What are you doing?”

[hakogakuwings]

He looked at him puzzled. Was he doing something wrong? Eyes lowered to where he held Arakita's hand. Oh. He let it go. They were already on the other side of the road.

It was a habit he kept with his relatives. Ever since he was a sickly child, they wanted to keep him near. He hadn't really any other older friends to hang out with, so naturally...the atmosphere was too similar for him, and by not realizing early enough--it just happened.

"Sorryyy," he waved the two hands up in front of his face. Casually swinging the door open to the corner store, he let the gust of air conditioning dry the nervous sweat rolling down his temple. Also hidden from view, the look of pure mortification.

"The poor girl must be in love with you, you know. She probably wouldn’t stand you if she didn’t love you."

[hakogakuwings]

"That seems unlikely. She really does get mad at me a lot. I think Class. Rep. feels she has a responsibility over me since we've been close all throughout our childhood."

Chap.279: Part 1, [ 2 ]

[kimosujii-deactivated20140914]

"Gwaaaah?!" He wasn’t expecting the other male to grasp his neck and bop their foreheads together like that. What was with this kid?! He couldn’t help but stare in shock as his hand instinctively made its way to his head. "You’re so gross, it’s flat-out annoying! Gross gross gross!" He grabbed hold of the other male’s arms to make him release his neck. He was rarely touched by people as it was, and yet this kid had the gall to do such a thing to him? He clanked his teeth together in disgust. 

A hill? Oh, so this kid was a climber, then. Tch…he seemed to be running into climbers a lot, lately. “…There’s a hill towards the end of this flat road.” He was still wary of the other male, after the stunt that was pulled. Keeping an eye on him, he pointed down the road to where a mountainous area could be seen in the distance.

[hakogakuwings]

His mouth parted in slight shock at the rough handling that made his hands retreat fast. He tried to shrug off the embarrassment of being called 'gross' so many times in a row, but it still kinda stung on his feelings. His cheeks were hot as he turned to where the rival captain was pointing.

Peering more closely at the distance, he saw what was the base of a slope that steeped very slowly and steadily upwards on the path. It wasn't much of a climb, but when he moved his head he could see with a squint that it ascended further into an area of middle-sized summits. He didn't notice them earlier for they were mostly obscured by several buildings from his stand point.

So this was going to be a bit of a long race, huh?

Before he could feel his face lift, Manami was smiling again.

"I'm up for it if you are! Let me grab a bar from the machine, and I'll hop on and we can do this." He said it so excitedly - so nonchalantly. The kid already forgot his opponent was a high and mighty rival. He treated him like some friend instead.

Hakone's ace wild card sprinted back to hastily prepare himself.
