En selle, Sakamichi ! #4

Volume 4 of En selle, Sakamichi ! puts the pedal down with a cover that captures the raw thrill of competitive cycling — a determined young rider in a yellow-and-white kit pushes hard on his road bike, a more seasoned rival looming close behind in a fierce pursuit. Wataru Watanabe's artwork crackles with kinetic energy, the tight framing and bold red backdrop making every turn of the wheel feel urgent. Published in 2024 by Kurokawa in partnership with L'Équipe, this French edition is a great entry point into one of manga's most heartfelt sports series.
