SYNOPSIS
Sohoku High's cycling team stands at a crossroads. The legends who carried them to victory at the Inter-High have graduated, leaving behind three first-years still raw with competitive hunger: the determined climber Onoda, the speedster Imaizumi, and the sprinter Naruko. Now they must prove themselves worthy of the title under new captains Teshima and Aoyagi, learning to function as a unit rather than relying on past glory. But the cycling world doesn't wait for rookies to grow comfortable. Hakone Gakuen, hungry for revenge after their loss, is rebuilding with ruthless efficiency. Kyoto Fushimi has awakened a new threat in Midousuji, a racer of almost supernatural ability who rewrites what's possible on two wheels. Every team wants the Inter-High crown back, and Sohoku's youth is both their greatest asset and their biggest vulnerability. What unfolds is a story about inheriting a legacy you didn't build, earning respect through sweat and strategy, and discovering that cycling at the highest level demands not just talent but unbreakable bonds between teammates who have everything to prove.
