I don't like running,
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.
