Artist's commentary
Suika is the second.
For now, part A of stage one is finished. I've got different work to do recently, so I think the sequel will be delayed a bit, sorry. The story runs correctly, so the st0~st1 renaming doesn't have any real meaning, just to return in case I forget. As someone pointed out, the difference between the two is in physique.
As a result, the difference in pedaling frequency turned out into lost strength, so the general mood is that Yuugi had '3 steps' worth of spare strength.
There wasn't much of team play feeling for now, simply a result of competition between Suika and Yuugi. I'm dividing climbers and sprinters based on my impression, so the real distinction doesn't make much sense. I think it's more important to pay attention to match making for characters, than sticking to real distinctions, so my judgment is based on that. Because the other way, vampires riding bicycles in the midday will be a one messed-up story twist.
Now then, see you later.
