Keirin Manga

So have any of the Japanese readers here ever read some of the manga put out about Keirin?

I just picked up オッズ, a book about a racer who has lost his family and races against his rivals for their sake. So far it's ok, with some good splash pages now and then. I really dig the detail the artist puts into the bikes, including famous Keirin makers etc. There's also random factoids about famous European racers.

My co-worker let me know about this one, which I hadn't seen before.

There are also at least two other manga whose names escape me at the moment.

It's up to book 8 and still going right? Amazon reviews are hella low. lol

Should be able to get it at any mid-sized manga shop really. Publisher is 小学館.

Thanks, yeah ill look around. Its probably stupid.
I just wanna see the art more than anything.

He races for sake? :love:

*yawn*

Wake me when you find some keirin hentai...

dammit! you took my joke.

i'm sure it exists...

i'm glad to see this thread though, i was planning on putting up one myself. the japanese have manga on every conceivable subject (including the USA presidential elections!) so with the popularity of Keirin, i figured there'd be more manga & anime on the subject.

Rule 34, which isn't exclusive to hentai....

i bought volumes 1-7 in japan.
it's okay.

any english?

what's rule 34? i must have missed that lesson at otaku school.

hahaha. it's Rule 34 of the internet:
