The original story follows the character "Sakamichi Onoda," a true otaku stereotype who is obsessed with anime figures and games. He routinely cycles 90 kilometers to Akihabara (Japan), joining a local cycling team after meeting two classmates who are famous cyclists. He undergoes rigorous training to compete and improve, eventually discovering his own talent in the sport.
The author launched the manga in Akita Shoten's Shonen Champion magazine in 2008, where the story has inspired stage plays in Japan and two television anime adaptations to date. The first season of the anime arrived in 2013. The second season premiered in Japan in 2014. Following the season, two compilation films premiered in Japan in 2014. This year, a new film was released titled Yowamushi Pedal: Spare Bike.
The story of this third season was set after the events that occurred in the first two seasons along with the last film released in 2015, where all the previous students from the third season will leave high school and end up graduating.
