AIR GEAR! WTF? DO I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS MINI PLOT ARC?!

Holy crap...
It's spoiler-rific, and anyone who tried to jump in on this boat at chapter 124/125 and read up to 129 would be lost as hell as to what the "Gram Scale" or "Sky Link" or "Sky Regalia" is..... however...

MAJOR SPOILER FOR AIR GEAR FANS READING THE MANGA AS IT'S RELEASED IN JAPAN!!!!
However, if you think you'll never read 129 chapters of Air Gear, click the cut! It's INSANE <3.

PRESIDENT BARAK OBAMA LOVES AIR TREKS! AND GETS STUCK IN THE BODY OF A 15 YEAR OLD JAPANESE GIRL!!!!!! :O
And utilizing Sky Link, he met with the team of Kogarasumaru to explain the intricacies of what exactly the Sky Regalia actually DOES..

In the process, Nike and his protagonists realize that then president-elect Obama and Kogarasumaru were meeting through their minds via Sky Link, and they jump into the connection to attempt to kidnap/assassinate the president.

What happens? Emily Adachi, the only member of Kogarasumaru (also uber hot..) pushes him out of the way just as the former King of the Flame Road pulls the plug on everyone.. and

EMILY AND OBAMA'S MINDS GET SWITCHED!!!!!

Obama's mind ends up in the body of a middle school teenage Japanese girl named Emily Adachi!
Since he's an old-school American style Air Trek rider, he is able to use Emily's body much better than she actually can. And Obama teaches the team of Kogarasumaru awesome awesome tricks <3. And instils within them the urgency that they need to enter the Gram Scale tournament to keep Nike (a villain character..) and Sora (the villain character's twin brother..) from entering and defeating the current Sleeping Forest (the anti-hero team that guards the codes that control the Sky Regalia.) because if they do, they will control all Air Trek technology around the world; thus stealing away the freedom and happiness that Air Treks can bring to children around the world...

The arc make me face-desk like a million times... but once I finished the arc (ending with chapter 129..) I realized that I really like it.

It's silly at first.. but knowing the backstory; and knowing the base feeling you get when you skate freely in real life, and feeling like there's nothing that you can't achieve; and knowing the root core ideology that pushes the story of Air Gear along, it's a really awesome way to get Obama into the story.. and make him have a positive influence on the world of Air Treks (Air Treks are the skates, btw.) It's -awesome-
