To check off the bucket list, you should probably ask yourself if you enjoy a story driven by drama with sports elements. Because make no mistake, this anime contains a great deal of realism read more
Story:-9/10 Looks like the anime industry has finally acknowledged the existence of a mythical place known as 'college'. From the very first second you are drawn in due to the unique storyline. Art:-10/10 The art style is so fluid that it easily sets this anime apart from others.Absolutely no inconsistencies/drop in quality anywhere. Characters:-10/10 This is the USP of the show. We have 10 people,each studying in different majors and different years.Ample screentime is given to every character.Their interactions are highly realistic. Enjoyment:-10/10 This show is a perfect mixture of drama,motivation and comedy.There is never a dull moment.It feels difficult to wait an entire read more
Story: 9 Run with the Wind is a really special show, it’s been a long time since any story has quite impacted me this strongly. The story is actually quite simple, a bunch of college students decide to run a marathon, and their journey to reaching it. The execution is where the anime shines, there is never a wasted moment at all, every episode either focuses on the growth of a character, the growth of the team, or a major cliffhanger that leaves you wanting more. The anime outside of some unrealistic dramatic scenes, felt very relatable and refreshing, read more
Story : 9/10 The story like most people would say is pretty standard but what differs it from the read more
Character (10): There are various unique, interesting and lovable characters in this anime, and we get a deep-dive in the personality and development of the most important characters, making it really easy to relate to and feel with the characters, as well as making them more likeable and real. Sound (9): OP: Pretty fitting for the show. The opening is chill and all good but nothing outstanding. ED: The ending is pretty neat, the beat is really relaxing. OST: (the god) Yuuki Hayashi composed the soundtrack, read more
Road with the goal of Hakone is far. But aiming for a dream is a good thing. Everyone feels sure about it and strives to practice training every day. Who is a genuine runner? Where is college can reach the top? Those answers are there. This show builds up with an ensemble cast. Kakeru Kurahara and Haiji Kiyose are protagonists. No problem if you focus on them. At first, the development of each character is completely well done. This is a high point. Every character is unique, attractive, and likable. And cool. Especially Haiji is my favorite character in read more
Time to review another one of the MAL top 100! At least at the time of this review it's in the top 100. Run with the Wind is being hailed as one of the greatest sports anime of all time. While I feel it got a little overhyped and overrated, it's certainly a good anime and well worth checking out! Wind is the 2nd novel from author Shion Miura to be adapted into an anime. The first was The Great Passage back in 2016. Remember that one? It was about a 30 year old guy with autism that struggled with interpersonal skills, but found an read more
In my opinion, what makes an anime great is the ending and the desire to watch it one episode after another. BUT, i just realized that might not apply on all of them. Sometimes the process of waiting and building into a good story with a direct legit art, is all what it takes. Beside when it comes to sport anime, you need to have faith in Production I.G, hope to see more of their works...
It’s a nice dream. So nice, I never want to wake up." I too would never like to wake up from the dream that has been Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru, or Run with the wind. This is an anime that has touched my heart more than any other work of art I have ever experienced in my twenty years of life. I'm writing this review immediately after viewing the final episode, and I am truly grateful for this series. The underlying theme of this series concerns youth. In college, we are pulled in so many directions, and read more
I was really shocked to see a anime about running that does not show any character running until ep 5 or 6, I mean how sports anime do that these days. Rather then making us show the characters running from the start it takes read more
The premise is promising and its characters are strong but its execution of plot elements and overall execution is underwhelming. It relies too heavily on the viewer's innate suspension of disbelief to progress the story where it wants to go. It was a bit of a read more
Now I am going to tell you why I enjoyed this anime, instead of breaking down every detail. I must admit, the synopsis is bad. However, if the synopsis is holding you read more
never thought i would watch an anime about running or anything running related, well gave it a shot, its not half bad. in fact it is really damn good. the running theme can be actually translated to any other activity, or even job or a dream. or anything. the characters are amazing, the story is cool. there is not a single bad thing that can be said about the series. so overall the series are 9/10 it would take a real effort to hate the show, and thus if you considering to watch it, you would probably enjoy it.
Okay, where do I start? The soundtrack is absolutely amazing. Not just the openings and endings, but the background tracks are so, immensely good at setting the mood for this anime. The art is GORGEOUS. It's hard to explain what exactly I love about this art style, but I'm hoping to find something similar to it in the read more
Story : 10/10 Art : 9/10 Sound : 10/10 Character : 10/10 This anime is one of the best sports and positive anime. 100% recommended for sports animes. Story:- (Spolier) The story resloves around the main person Haiji who is a long distance runner suffered from leg injury but still wants to run at the national event. He does fulfill his dream by convincing everyone in best possible and realistic way and they did reach to the Hakone Ekiden, by registering scores for all players and also securing 10th in the qualifying round The best part is that the whole story goes ahead perfectly step by step like Prince's timings eventually reached to read more |
