Sangaku Manami

Manami is all about that thrill of the slopes and the rush of being alive. Growing up sickly and stuck in bed, video games were his escape, but he craved real experiences—even the pain that came with them. When his buddy Miyahara introduced him to cycling, it was like a lightbulb went off; the uphill battles made him feel more real than ever. Now, he’s this laid-back guy who often drifts off in class, dreaming of his next ride. His love for cycling connects him to nature, and he’s got an uncanny knack for reading the wind, giving him the edge in races.
