Masterpost of everything you need to know about this blog!
Hello, I'm Fyki and I created this blog to post the tranlsations of the Yowamushi Pedal manga. I know many of you have been following me for a long time, but I decided to make this masterpost so that new user can know everything they need!
You can also find me here:
Main blog
AO3 for my writing
And if you want to support me, you can buy me a coffee!! ☕ That would mean a lot <33
So! (under cut because it's a bit long)
First things first: I am NOT a professional translator, nor am I a professional Japanese speaker. I learned Japanese precisely to be able to read Yowapeda, and then since no one else was translating it and I love this manga so much, I decided to use what little knowledge I had to translate it. This is to say that these translations contain errors, especially those of the older chapters.
2. You can find everything in this Google Drive folder: LINK
3. Translations start from chapter 422, which corresponds to the end of the fourth season of the anime - basically, translations start from the start of the third day of the second Inter High. Chapter 424 has only the last few pages translated, and chapter 425 is not translated - for both it's because I didn't tranlsate the scenes that were already in the last episode of the anime.
4. Some chapters are typesetted, but mostly they aren't. When I first started I was trying to typeset too, but it was too much work; then during the years some people offered to give me a hand and that's why some chapters are typesetted. For the non typesetted chapters, in each folder there's the raw pages and the translations file.
@lyndeeznuts and here team are doing gods' work and typesetting all the old chapters! They're currently at chap 527! <3
5. Everything is also here on tumblr at @yowapeda-translations. That was my first blog, but then tumblr for some reason flagged it as containing mature contents, and that created some problems with the search and the visibility, which is why I made this new blog.
6. I post the new chapter every week, usually during the weekend, so you expect it between Friday and Sunday, depending on how long it is, how difficult, and how much time I have.
7. I LOVE talking about this manga, it's the reason I started doing this in the first place! So if you wanna chat, share theories, fangirl together, please do!! I am extremely slow in replying to asks and messages, but that's because I have little time, but I promise you I will reply!
8. Please if you want to use my translations to typeset or for anything else, ask me first!
I think this is all, but if you have any question feel free to send an ask or a message!! <33
Hello lovelies <3 Here to remind you that since I'm currently in the forest in the middle of nowhere this week's chapter will be late!! I probably won't be able to translate until next Monday/Tuesday, so please be a little patient 🫶🏻

5: Oi, Tobira, Yuzu, so who's going? Have you decided?
Thanks to you all, Yowamushi Pedal reached 100 volumes!!
Since the start of the serialization in February 2008 it's been 18 years and 3 months, and Sakamichi-kun has become a third year, too; we're at the third Inter High too.
Thanks to everyone's hard work, connections, and aspirations, and with your support, we've reached this point!
This is the first time a cycling manga has reached 100 volumes under the same name, and it's the fifth title in a shounen magazing, following “Kochikame”, “Hajime no Hippo”, “One piece”, and “Detective Conan”.
And it's also the fastest manga to reach 100 volumes in a shounen magazine!!
When I started, I didn't think I'd come this far, I had many experiences I wouldn't have had otherwise.
I'll take a moment to reflect on volume 100, and then I'll start running again
I wish to continue delivering fun and exciting stories with all my might

Cool
Yeah, I guess. By the way, you, both ways of talking were good
3: Buah!1 My cute kohai, I caught up to you now, so don't worry, get behind me!!
4: “Cute”- compared to that, he's really harsh during practice, isn't he?
Woah, ehi!!
5: Buah!! Because you are cute!!

5:You're standing up to a senpai?
And are you teasing a first year?
Pag 6
1: Ah?
2: Do you know what I was thinking when I got into Hakone Academy?
I don't know
3: Should we talk about it?
I'm not listening
4: It's us three in the lead and the mountain prize is close, right?
Yeah!!
5: In road racing, where there are no “absolute certainties” it's rare to get such an advantageous situation, isn't it?
That's right!!
6: If we keep going like this and I take the mountain line...
Pag 7
1: Then I'll get the mountain colored bib I've dreamed of!!
2: That's right
3: That's why I'll take it
What are you talkin about, it's gonna be me

Didn't they teach you the club's manners?
They did!!
4: Oi!!
Yessir
Pag 8

To me!!
To me!!
Should we really play rock paper scissors...?
Pag 9
2: Alright..!! It's here, it's here, my moment!! My moment!!

It's a big chance, a big chance
Now if I pass those Hakogaku guys and take the mountain prize
5: then I'll be the Mountain King!!
Pag 10
1: This is fate!!
Come on, it's fate that he told me to take it!! Funa-
2: Kiriya-san!!
Did this guy just got my name wrong
3: I always get confused between Funatsu -san and Kiriya-san
Was Funatsu-san the one who resisted until the third day and Kiriya-san the one who retired on the second day...?
Yeah, ha ha ha
4: After accomplishing phase 62 we have to go for the mountain prize, seriously...?
5: You're asking the impossible, Midosuji...
Pag 11
1: Last year I retired during the mountain stage on the second day
2: I pulled the team throughout the mountain and I used up all my strength to my limit
3: Last year I wanted to see the goal gate with my own eyes
4: This year
Pag 12
2: When I was a first year, the third years Ishigaki-san, Ihara-san and Tsuji-san
3: I joined the club because I looked up to Tsuji Akihisa-san, a climber
Tsuji-san... he's moving...
4: Tsuji-san was a climber who had often won races within Kyoto
5: I went to see him when I was in middle school, at the race in my hometown
He won wearing Kyoto Fushimi's jersey
The image of Tsuji-san's jersey was burned into my memory
6: That guy is so cool...
I want to try to raise my hands in victory on a mountain too...
7: I want to run with that jersey too
Pag 13
1: When I joined Kyoto Fushimi and the joined joined the team I often got teased because we looked alike
You two really do look alike
Is that so?
I thought you were his little brother at first
No, that's disrespectful to my senpai
2: It wasn't ideal, but that was the trigger that led us to talk more often, and then he also invited me to practice
3: Is that so? You want to be a climber
Yessir
4: I'll teach you all the secrets of the mountains
Really!?
5: You need to decide on a level of difficulty you're prepared for
Level!?
Once we get back to the clubroom I'll explain you with a picture
Thank you!!
6: Tsuji-san was kind
7: When I went to sleep I always thought “Tsuji-san's jersey is so cool”
Pag 14
2: Then I became a climber too
3: I'm just like Tsuji-san was when he was a third year
4: In hopeless situations I always think “what would Tsuji-san do?”
5: After going all out to complete that phase I was told to go for the mountain prize...
6: In a moment like this Tsuji-san would...
Pag 15
1: I want to try to raise my hands in victory on a mountain too
2: Huh?
3: No no no, what am I even remembering
Not this, if it was Tsuji-san...that was my purpose
5: My purpose...
I retired last year, so I thought that it would be good if I could at least reach the finish line on the second day today...
6: …. I
8: On the mountain ahead!?
Raising my arms with this jersey....!?
Pag 16
1: Ah!! Funa-Kiriya-san!!
I'm counting on you to be my assist!!
Ah-
3: Ah.... yeah
By the way, Kiriya-san, don't you have a clear goal!?
A goal....
As for me, I'm obsessed with the mountain prize... I'm taking on my shoulders my brother's wish as well
So I'm counting on you!!
4: Yeah... that's right
Pag 18
1: Let's catch up, Rokudai!!
Yes, teh!!
2: But I'll pull too, teh!!
Don't worry about it
3: You can just motivate me by saying “We're not caught up yet, Danchiku, hurry up”
Could I really do such a thing...!!
4: That's definitely something Kaburagi-san would say... but I can't say it, teh!!
Right now you
5: just think about the first years' race or the prefectural qualifications
Picture it as well as you can
Pag 19
1: I will definitely catch up to Hakogaku ahead of us
So you get ready for the mountain!!
Pag 20
1: Teh!!
No no, somehow I feel like it's me who's aiming for the the mountain stage, but that's not it!!
I really do have to pull, teh!!
3: Danchiku-san, please take the mountain prize!! I'll support you, teh!!
I've heard you have the strength to defeat Hakone Academy's ace, Shinkai-san, on Minegayama!!
