IN ANY GOOD RACE, IT ALWAYS COMES DOWN TO THE LAST LEG! 
It's been a nonstop swelter in Andalusia this summer—even before the hot-blooded cyclists of this year's La Vuelta came zooming in! Competing as a second-string racer for a third-rate sponsor, Andalusian native Pepe Benengeli isn't exactly the favorite to win. Well, that is unless you're talking to the folks at his brother's wedding reception! But when a series of mid- race revelations leave him at a crossroads, Pepe explodes in an all-out attack toward the finish line! Some of the teams or riders featured in Nasu were notably influenced by the name and/or uniforms and techniques used by actual international cycling teams or riders in the early 2000s.

 Interview with Director Kitarō Kōsaka and voice cast
