Fans Rank the Characters Who Look Coolest on a Motorcycle

Fans Rank the Characters Who Look Coolest on a MotorcycleDepending on how you pronounce them, the numbers 819 can be read “baiku” in Japanese, making August 19 “Bike Day.” (That’s bike as in motorcycle or other powered two-wheeler, not bicycle. This really threw me when I first started learning Japanese.)

Anyway, the occasion prompted site Anime Anime to ask its readers: which anime characters look coolest on a motorcycle? Here are their top 10:

10. Vermouth
Detective Conan

9. Joe (Junk Dog)
Megalobox

8. Kino
Kino’s Journey

7. Masumi Sera
