Chio's School Road (ちおちゃんの通学路, Chio-chan no Tsūgakuro, lit. Chio's Commute to School) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tadataka Kawasaki. It began serialization in Media Factory's Monthly Comic Flapper magazine with the May 2014 issue. An anime television series adaptation by Diomedéa premiered on July 6, 2018.

Plot

The story features a simple premise—high school girl Chio Miyamo walking from her house to her school. What happens between these two points, however, varies from day to day, ranging from strange conversations with her friend Manana, dealing with biker gangs, and performing death-defying feats of parkour.

Voiced by: Chiaki Omigawa[2] (Japanese); Emily Fajardo[4] (English)

Madoka is a senior student at Chio's school who is captain of the Kabaddi Club, who probably has lesbian tendencies. She has a strong passion for kabaddi, which she ultimately comes to realize is not based in the sport itself, but rather for it being the perfect excuse to grope other girls.
Gotō (後藤)
