story


Short summary: Azuma Kazuma, a young boy with Solar Hands (hands that are naturally warm) sets off from his home to follow his dream of making Japan, a bread that will represent Japan and that the Japanese people will like as much (or more) than rice. Along the way he meets a bunch of new friends, encounters loads of problems, and, of course, makes a lot of bread.

*SPOILER WARNING - Obviously, this section contains massive spoilers if you aren't completely up-to-date on the manga chapters.*



For those who want a more in-depth story summary, we've arranged them by story arc.
The first section follows the beginning of the story (when Azuma leaves home) up to the Pantasia Newcomer's Battle (that would roughly be Vol.1 Ch.1 - Vol.2 Ch.14).
The second is the Newcomer's Battle until the crew leaves for Monaco (roughly Vol.2 Ch.15 - Vol.7 Ch.55).
The third is the Monaco Cup arc (Vol.7 Ch.56 - Vol.14 Ch.123).
And the fourth is the Yakitate!! 25 arc (Vol.15 Ch.124 - present).
If you haven't read a particular section, volume, chapter, etc. or if you haven't completely finished a particular arc, there may be information in these summaries that will contain spoilers for you, so please proceed to them at your own discretion.
