This year marks the 10th anniversary of the original comic series and the 5th anniversary of the anime series. When the two guests were asked about their impressions of "Yowamushi Pedal," Mr. Miyano replied, "When I was auditioning for the show, I was so absorbed in reading the original comic that I was moved to tears by the passionate and moving story. I was moved to tears by the passionate and moving story. I could feel the feelings each character was carrying and the rising energy of the work itself.

In the following corner, a special guest, Yusuke Saeki, an artist who sings the opening theme for the second cool season, appeared on stage.

Regarding the lyrics, he said, "In the past, I haven't used many Midosuji-kun-inspired phrases in my songs, so in this song, I included words that Midosuji-kun would say, such as 'Phase'. We also attacked him with the lyrics." Saeki also introduced the song.
