I believe this is my first sports anime I've watched, and I enjoyed it more than I expected. I'd say the focus is more on the characters and their connections with each other, with running track being the thing that connects them. All the characters get their respective screen time and development, and it's really nice to see them all grow alongside each other and become stronger.

The ending itself is really down-to-earth and realistic. I never thought they would win, but I was almost expecting them to because that's the kind of thing I could see happening. However, they kept it realistic, and it really elevates the achievements they made together.

The animation was never anything special, but I don't think it ever needed to be. It did everything it needed to do and delivered a good character-driven story.
