Air Gear (エア・ギア)

Modern technology has allowed for the advent

of a four‐kilowatt miniaturized motor

no bigger than a tiny gear,

and it's become especially popular

among extreme sports fans

who use it to modify their roller blades.

These daredevils push themselves to go even faster,

to fly even higher.

With these high‐tech devices,

they enter a world of their own, racing down the streets,

writing their own rules.

For Air Trek riders, there are no boundaries.

The world is their road,

and the sky is the limit, climbing higher and higher

to the heavens themselves.

Air Trek‐‐fucking bullshit.

Watch your mouth!

What do you think you're doing?

I didn't give you permission to watch my videos, punk!

Don't you have any manners?

Have respect for people's privacy.

You'd think that by now you'd have figured out

the rules around here, Ikki.

How about you give me a warning next time

before you try to kill me?

Geez, and I'm the hero, too.

Ikki, did you lose another fight?

Well, you're lucky you didn't go and get yourself killed!

No way!

‐Huh? ‐Huh?

I haven't lost the fight yet, okay?

Ikki?

Are you kidding me?

You're the leader of the East Side Gunz?

Ha‐‐you're just a little shit!

I'm gonna kick your ass!

Son of a‐‐

Got ya.

Listen, runt.

You know what'll happen if I drop you from way up here?

It won't be pretty!

You get it now?

This is what happens when you screw around with me.

I can't believe it!

This little bastard pissed his pants!

I want a picture!

Hey, while he's here, why don't we stuff

some firecrackers up his ass?

Yeah, make him go boom!

Ikki.

Ikki!

Hey, man, you still alive?

What were you thinking?

Weren't you listening when I told you the Skull Saders

are the toughest Storm Riders around here?

Yeah, yeah‐‐where's my fucking bike?

Forget the bike, dude, you're lucky to be alive.

Hey, Ikki, wait!

Where are you‐‐

I thought so‐‐he's always easy to find.

Ikki!

Kazu told me what happened‐‐I can't believe

you tried to take a team of Storm Riders on!

You're not still pouting about getting beat, are you?

‐Shh. ‐Huh?

What the hell is she?

That girl practices around here every day.

Not bad, huh?

Looks just like Gamachi from the Air Trek commercial.

So do you always come here to watch her?

Don't get the wrong idea or anything.

I don't know her name,

and she doesn't even know I'm here.

Don't grab that one, it isn't cooked yet!

All right, but I call dibs on the big piece!

Hey, what do you think you're doing?

Oh, uh, well, I can't eat it all so‐‐

Sorry, sis, no mercy.

He has to face his punishment.

But he's so hungry‐‐ just look at him!

That's a face only a mother could love.

Well, it's not like you have any dignity left!

Go ahead, eat!

Bad dog!

You really have a death wish, don't you?

Noooo!

Gross!

I smell like barbecue sauce!

That dirty animal ruined our meat night.

It doesn't matter if it's meat night

or any other night, that little bastard

is always finding news ways to piss me off, you know?

But on the bright side,

we all get to take a bath together!

Hey, what are you doing?

Well, Ringo, no fair!

Since when did your boobs get so frickin' big?

Hold on, let me grab 'em!

‐No way! ‐Calm down, you two!

You're gonna slip and bust your heads.

Honestly, they're so immature!

I'll let you touch mine!

‐You pervert‐‐I said no! ‐Don't be so shy!

Come on!

You owe me a peek for treating me like crap!

Oww!

It's not fair.

They treat me like a freakin' dog,

but they're the real bitches.

I have feelings too, you know.

I oughta call social services on those jerks for this.

Huh?

Why not?

What the‐‐

Air Treks‐‐no way.

Are these all theirs?

How come they never told me about this?

Sleeping Forest.

Huh.

Is that some kind of group name?

Just lock the left buckle in, and I should be ready to go.

All right.

Huh‐‐it's really moving.

It's just like on TV!

"Acceleration‐‐applying pressure with your feet

will increase the speed."

Like this?

Wait, that's too much, slow down!

That was close.

It looks like the brake is at the bottom,

but it's hard to stop.

I guess I'll need to turn or make a powerslide

if I wanna slow down.

But man, this rocks.

Hell yeah!

I should've figured he would do this sooner or later.

Rika's gonna be pissed he took her Air Treks.

Yeah, and knowing Rika,

she's probably gonna take it out on us, too!

Let's just pretend like we don't know anything.

Ikki.

Damn, I can't believe that girl was able

to grind on the fence like that.

Should I try it?

Well, maybe I should wait

till I've practiced a little more.

Birds can spread their wings and fly to the heavens,

but you're stuck here on the ground.

Why is that?

I can fly.

You hear that, birds?

You can suck it!

This is awesome!

It's like I've got wings on my feet!

Uh, wait a sec.

How the hell am I supposed to land?

Landing, landing!

What the hell was I thinking?

Crap!

Please, I just wanna stop!

Ow!

What, is meeting over already?

Typical reaction from rookie.

Obviously, you've not been riding very long.

‐Please don't eat me! ‐You're not worth eating!

I run top class AT shop for pros,
