Hairy ones.

1. Musa: Looks good
2. Joji: Looks tired because he used them last night
3. Yuki: Can't really get a good idea even if he's touching them.
4. Nico-chan-senpai: Good morning!

I marathoned all the episodes last week and can't wait. I don't know why I put it off because I love sports anime. I remember seeing ratings early on, and they weren't very high, so I figured it was more on the level and quality of that one biking anime than top series like Haikyuu or Chihayafuru. Honestly one of the best sports anime I've seen. I wish I had been in the threads all season, but I'm here now.

I don't think I can handle Haiji's injury fucking him up.

I was joking. A show about dudes running isn't up my alley and that seems to be a common sentiment on Yea Forums. I feel like most people who watch anime don't watch it for realistic drama, same reason why rakugo and sangatsu no lion aren't that popular despite being almost unanimously loved by the people who do watch them.

OUR future wife is perfect.

Rakugo was fairly popular on Yea Forums though.

Is this like Free? An anime about running seems interesting but I'm not into guys fanservice...

There's really no fanservice, and all the guys are straight and like girls. Just a lot of motivation and hard work without magic sports shit too.

I can't believe Hana is going to get spitroasted by the twins...

There's some fanservice at the start but it's definitely not the focus of the whole show. By the time the plot is rolling it's gone entirely.

Great, will give it a watch then.

>There's really no fanservice
Lol
Just because there isn't fanservice aimed at you doesn't mean there isn't fanservice

>all the guys are straight and like girls
Specially these two.

I already watched it live, so I'll spoiler: They changed the bittersweet ending to a happy one. I hope no one caught the earlier post. I only had one job, fuck. I'm glad they did it, but it makes all the teases they did earlier kind of shitty.

It was great. I'll miss this.

I fucking loved the ending, It tied it off all nicely.
One of my favorite shows and I was shocked to find out a women is the author as well.
One of the best sport shows in a while.

Can someone spoiler me the original ending? I was actually happy they did the happy ending.

Attached: 1531660602381.jpg (1280x720, 153K)

It was mostly the same, but they made a bigger deal out of Haiji's knee during the race, and Kakeru never found out the answer to what running was. He just keeps mulling over it forever because Haiji fucked up his knee.

Oh thank you.
Oh it's not too different I expected it like he collapsed and he had to crawl to the finish. I think they went with the correct ending then although what you posted doesn't sound too bad.
See you bros in the next show whatever that may be.
Also this is probably my favorite episode so so powerful.

Attached: 1551273479283.png (1920x1080, 2.42M)

I was expecting more permanent damage, kind of odd how little the injury seemed to affect things in the end, but I think I like the ending we got better than that overall.

There's still permanent damage. They just don't spell it out. You can see him walking with a limp. He can't run anymore.

>happy ending
fuck you and your shitty anime original ending
haiji should have broken his leg

Sadly it ended. On the other hand, joyful, because these are great memories. I am glad to see such beautiful shows. And this will be more in the upcoming seasons. We won't forget such masterpieces.

I had a few issues with the show but I'm definitely gonna give it a 10/10 anyway.
What about you guys?

She likes them both. Threesome ending incoming.

It's the first anime I finished in three years. I loved it. Actually made me start running too, and I was pretty much at Prince's stamina level before this.

I'm really surprised how much I ended up liking this anime. I was enjoying it decently enough at first but it's easily my AOTS now.
Also, I couldn't post this last week but have Kakeru's seiyuu introduce the characters in English.

What are you even doing on here?

She needs 1 more to make her airtight in their sweaty dirty gangbang. Imagine being a young JK surrounded by sweaty fit college guys all the time.

Read manga. Though really I do watch a lot of shows, I just never finish them due to lack of interest. Not much keeps my attention nowadays.

S3 never fuck this gay earth

Why does this beautiful dweeb want me to consider so many things

Shindo is still best boy.

I'll give it a 7.5. The last five episodes were a fantastic payoff but I didn't like the start much and the middle was just alright. Almost dropped it several times, though I'm glad I didn't. It's not a surprise to me that this show is unfortunately unpopular.

Damn Nicco cleans up nicely.

So she's still actually a virgin unless she actually likes Haiji, and the reason Haiji was limping was because he gave her the pounding of a lifetime.

Oh man I'm going to miss this show, so glad I didn't drop it early on. This is definitely going in the books and I hope this studio works on similar adaptions or even OC in the future if they're able to deliver something as beautiful as this.

Wow, you called it.

I don't think a show has ever moved me like this in years. The whole journey has been so emotional and satisfying. Their struggle, their personal issues, their hard work and their companionship truly made this one of the most rewarding shows I've ever watched. We were just a few anons, but I'm sure most of us feel blessed to have found such a hidden gem.

Good thing his wife has strong legs.

Literally best boy in anime ever.

This show and others like it are why I at least try every show each season. I only have to deal with a few episodes of crap shows, which get dropped, and the good ones make it all the way to the end.
I'll remember this one for a long time.

I've never had a waifu/husbando before, but now I know the feeling.

/runningbros/ it's over, it finally ended. I was looking forward to the ending but never wanted it to come as weird as that sounds. I don't know how to feel but this is definitely my favorite anime now. I've never resonated so hard with a show and never been so eager to watch it and see how the story progresses. We've truly been blessed by IG productions with such a special show.

I like to think that I'm a good person and I try not to hold grudges, but when they showed Sakaki crying at the montage I couldn't help but laugh at his misery. Fuck that guy.

I think it's pretty obvious but in no way they'd ever make it explicit. Their relationship was beautiful.

Yep, I've discovered so many wonderful surprises since I started doing this. 3 years ago I likely would have never picked this show up, and it's become one of my favourites ever

Man they all look great, time treated them well. Except for Shindo, that jacket makes him look like a faggot who just downloaded Grindr.

It was dumb that he was there. Really, his character didn't even matter during the race.

I've read that in the novel Kakeru apologizes to him beforehand during the race, and they make up. Hope someone can verify this.

Yes! This show opened up the beauty of running to me and it is kind of crazy.

Yes, they are good friends.

Yes. It took me a long time but now I've realized it's a great way to get to know yourself and to improve your life. Now if only I had a Haiji to run together with that'd be perfect, doing it alone feels a bit solitary.

How would you know?

>Everyone got hotter
How

Hard to believe they hated each other at begging of this. One of the best character development and evolution of a relationship I've seen in anime.

Does he still call him -san in the ending?

Man, this was great. I can't think of a better way to end this amazing show. I'm really glad they toned down Haiji's suffering. Best boy/waifu/husbando deserves all the happiness. Also, that OST when Haiji was running towards Kakeru... Perfect. Just perfect. I'm gonna miss this.

>Kakeru tearing up as Haiji runs towards him
I don't care if it was gay, I too cried like a bitch and it was a beautiful ending.

Seems like staying away from these threads was a good choice

It's actually over, isn't it?

This wasn't the greatest show I've ever seen, but it was pretty damn good and I feel like I'm going to miss it far more than a lot of shows I did like better. I'm already depressed, even with the happy ending.

They probably all run regularly, exercising makes you more handsome than not exercising. Haiji is a good cook so he probably has a balanced diet compared to most young adults.

Good, kept it that way little bitch.

The one annoyance I have with this show. I dont even mind the possible homoeroticism between Haiji and Kakeru.

Heavens, not being a degenerate that posts about the thighs of men (or underage boys like on Hakuyuu) on a taiwaneese website while also not being a fat fuck that doesn't ever exercise makes a lil' bitch. How will I ever cope

Oh man, this was so fucking great, one of the most wholesome anime I've ever watched, and now one of my favorite anime too. I fucking loved it my dudes, thanks for the threads

Oh no, people fapping to anime characterers on Yea Forums, how will these these threads ever recover

Attached: 1521531712689.png (834x818, 226K)

Okay, now I can finally start watching it.

It's painfully obvious you really haven't been in these threads if that's what you think goes on in here. Also yes, not wanting to marry Haiji does make you the biggest faggot to have lived, so please do return to wherever you came from.

Are you a lost /pol/tard? Where do you think you are?

*rusty metal noises*

Seeing Prince so loud and happy when Kakeru broke the record was such a pleasant surprise., and his little moment with Haiji before the last part pretty much cemented his (well deserved) spot as my second favorite.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how great the OST was? It made this anime so beautiful and atmospheric.

Musa and Shindo are gay tho.

Great show. Takes the season, maybe the year. Wanted to give the 5K a second attempt, but the weather has been awful these days, so it´ll stay at 28:57

I need a gif of Prince jumping and cheering, it made me happy to see him so invested in the race and the team in the end. Although I could say that about all the other characters, the way they have evolved is fantastic.

Same, I really liked Fune wo Amu in the beginning but pretty much lost all interest after the massive time skip. Which kind of brings me to the fact that I'm really pleased that this show went with a happier original ending, I think it wrapped the story way better than what happened in the novel. This is a rare case of an anime adaptation actually improving on the source material, and I'm so glad they went that way instead of blindly following the novel because this is definitely up there with my other favorite series now, and after hearing how things were in the original in these threads I don't think I would've felt this way if the anime just did the same.

Kakeru is secretly the best developed.

Sorry.

The anime has made so many improvements. It's kind of amazing to think the person in charge of series composition is mainly known for (voice) acting. He should consider doing this sort of stuff more often.

How do I find a boyfriend like Haiji?

So what now? I can't just forget about this anime and move on. I hate it when a show that has grown to be so important to me is over, I don't know how to deal with these feelings.

The show becomes so much more meaningful when you can experience at least some if it for yourself, with your own body.

You can do it bro. Just start and dont stop. Chase it

Bros, I just finished the show and went for a 4 mile run. I feel like with that, it's time to retire my old running shoes. These things have carried me hundreds of miles and it feels wrong to just throw them away. What should I do with them?

A single section was over an hour long? Why it never felt that long? Why they never pointed that out? It is hard to imagine Prince and sick Shindo running for an hour. It is hard to imagine many of them running for an hour.

Keep telling yourself that while Kakeru gets to 69 his coach every night.

Make a running memorial could be cool. You can try and clean them up a bit and make a little stand showing all the shoes you've ran in through the years.

Good luck, user. I know you can do it.

Is The Store Lady finally got her Musa BBC?

Hmm, I really liked the live action movie for Fune, but I haven't seen the anime. Not sure if it will line up to my expectations.

Do we know who Hana-chan actually likes? The "which one?" comment of hers certainly discredits Hana liking one of the twins. I think it's Kakeru but it's really up for discussion.

Also, that minor plot development about Hana liking one of the twins maybe "kind of" played a role in their respective character development, but I personally think it was unnecessary. Especially that late on the show. What do we /runningbros/ think?

So was the twist meant to be that she likes both twins or was it she likes one of the other boys?

>Do we know who Hana-chan actually likes? The "which one?" comment of hers certainly discredits Hana liking one of the twins. I think it's Kakeru but it's really up for discussion.

Do Hana and Kakeru even talk?

Reminder that Humans have evolved to run and fat fucks rely on this argument to justify their continued existence as a fat fuck.
If humans are made to do only one thing then Running is that thing.

What's the difference between those two then?
If they're exactly the same then it's MMF threesome ending.

We don't. Nip wiki says she likes both of them. She never shows any interest in Kakeru either, unlike he to her. I don't think it's him.

>imagine being that guy who got sick on marathon

If Hana likes anyone, it would have been Haiji.

Did you even see Haiji's knee? That's what happens.

>like he to her.
What's with people trying to ship this pointless side character with him? Is it because he's the protagonist?

Glasses is a lawyer and banging club bitches now. Based.

Reminder that Kakeru said he was in love with someone.

We saw there are some differences, such as the younger brother being more genki for running or whatever. There's always going to be personality differences with twins, so it's pretty creepy she likes both, especially since she can tell who is who. They were the least well-written boys imo.

Depends on if you can find a bro that looks exactly like you and is willing to Eiffel tower her with you. Because apparently she's into that. The one thing I will never forgive this show for.

It's not shipping. He actually likes her in the novel, but the anime completely erased that romantic subplot. Not that it matters. It was barely there anyway.

>It's not shipping. He actually likes her in the novel,
Yeah, I know. But at this point the anime and the novel are clearly different products, he doesn't even talk to her, they changed the ending, added different things for the characters, etc.

Haiji

I honestly would have preferred anyone but the twins.

Then what was the point of your post? In no way was I actually shipping them. We were talking about the novel.

Hana forcing the twins to a fuck off to see which one can satisfy her best.

Haven't watched the last episode and this thread will problably be dead when I do, but I love Haiji.

Truly spoken like someone who's never done a single challenging thing in their life. Have fun trying to convince yourself that what you did is "good enough" for the rest of your life.

>they went with the fujo ending
Damn. At least he didn't kiss when Haiji crossed the finish line. They should've stuck to the novel and made Kakeru like Hana.

Have fun eating and getting a heart attack because you'll never exercise. Don't worry on your death bed you can at least say how your knee is broken.

>running
>challenging

Is this what they called the runner's high? Kek. It's only challenging if you're fat and want to get fit, because its not efficient and would destroy your body. I suggest you observe proper diet and go to the gym instead.

I dropped the series last year but caught up to it starting at the beginning of the month. It's truly a fantastic binge watch and will likely gain momentum as a aotyc candidate in the coming months.

So we're supposed to believe a hot ass JK never got the shit fucked out of her by a bunch of young fit guys.

Are you even legally allowed to make a sports anime and not?

Early humans literally killed their prey by exhausting it over long distances.

So where do I run if I live off of a highway in a cramped and busy apartment complex with cars constantly coming in and out and no public tracks or parks for miles?
I can't run with the wind on a treadmill.

Bike or drive somewhere where you can also run to a better apartment

>I can't run with the wind on a treadmill.
Open a window.

Oh nonononono

Holy shit Hana is so beautiful with long hair. I think the longer eyelashes really look good too. She looks less like a young girl here and more like a woman. IG's character designs lately have been phenomenal.

>virgins well into their 20s
Haha yeah what a shame that'd be

Unless your goal is to set times you don't really have to run on an even road.
I practice martial arts so I run out on the sidewalk all the time. The uneven surfaces and obstacles I may run into help develop my reaction time and quick footwork. Plus it gives you the freedom to run wherever the hell you want, rather than running around the same park for ages.

iktf, I used to run on the site of the highway but the air quality was so bad I had to stop. I do cardio in my home as a replacement but if youre dead set on running there is always somewhere you can run

Many people run and have no problems throughout their entire lives. Some have due several circumstances. You just want to justify your laziness.

Look harder. I'm sure there's somewhere near you with a nice scenery. Running around a track sucks honestly. When I did crew in high school we used to just run around the river occasionally. I miss being an athlete and having teammates. ;_;

>I miss being an athlete and having teammates
Me too my friend. I had no idea how much I loved it until it was over. I played volleyball in highschool and even though I wasn't very good and only played every other game or so, it was amazing. I've looked into adult leagues, but I'm just too awkward, out of shape, and cowardly to join anything.

Yeah, shame. I felt bad he got no resolution.

>I've looked into adult leagues, but I'm just too awkward, out of shape, and cowardly to join anything.
I feel you there. I think I could get back in shape if I tried, but I feel like it would be super awkward since normally people do those things with their friends. I'm also terrible at any sport which requires skill, hence why I did crew in HS.

This is for sure AOTS for me, never a dull moment.
The amount of flashbacks I got from running in High School Track by watching this was unreal. This is now one of my favourite animes by far.

I didn't know there were threads about this on Yea Forums. Shame, I would have been on here since I started watching in early January, but I still had a blast. Don't worry bros, we're always going to see the top.

Try Ultimate Frisbee. The skill ceiling is low, and it's pretty casual; practically made for guys in your case as well as more athletic guys who are getting older. As long as you can catch/throw a frisbee and aren't so fat you can't jog a bit, you'll fit right in.

I fucking hate running, but I still watch this show because its good

wtf, he looks like he just escaped from Auschwitz

>top tier long distance runners irl are absolutely tiny, basically no bodyfat and not very muscular, as light as can be and rarely very tall

I can't be the only one annoyed by this. Just google the top marathon record holders if you're not aware what the top runners look like.

Watch Tsurune over this first.

>As long as you can catch/throw a frisbee
Uh we might have some problems here.

Yea Haikyuu was fantastic without any ZONE stuff. I always watch the last points in S2 and S3 to get hype. Those rallies are just so good and IG are truly gods of the sports genre. I feel like they're the only studio left that teaches their animators a more realism based approached to movement. But they're still good at getting the action to feel intense and they can still use cartoony movement to make light hearted moments.

Attached: 1443965151797.webm (960x540, 595K)

Finally getting a new season of Haikyuu probably early 2020. Ace of Diamond is a lot longer than Haikyuu but really has a somewhat similar feel to it at times. They keep it realistically and the protagonist gets their asses handed to them multiple times.

That would have been better, I think. Or at least show a sudden limping in his gait. With that kind of face and how Kakeru immediately knew there should have been more brutal physical signs.

>Finally getting a new season of Haikyuu probably early 2020
Kinda surprised. I half assumed they stopped making it because the manga gets kinda boring after where season 3 left off.

I really hope we get more Haikyuu. It's probably my favorite sports anime.

Attached: RL fight.webm (1280x720, 2.8M)

we are getting the superior ace of diamond next season

I can't get into Ace no Diamond. The character designs really turn me off and the production values just aren't as good as something like Haikyuu.

His character was to serve as a foil to the team dynamic that was building up in the show. Sakaki runs as an individual and competes as an individual against others. This was how Kakeru ran at first in the series. By the end though everyone on the team now runs for the sake of one another, not for themselves, and its shown by how Kansai basically gives 0 fucks but whatever bs Sakaki is talking about. He fails to grow as a person, and is thus unable to push himself and more crucially his team into top ten, because they have nothing greater to run for than themselves.

last time I read, DnA is now Madhouse only without IG's involvement.

HQ is in 2020

Maybe he's had running experiance? I had it on a team in high school and a lot of what this show talks about is very spot and familiar. Especially with regards to character growth and attitudes.

Only if you are a moron and run a gorillian miles on concrete. You need to break up your runs with trail and park runs.

I really wish the whole team lined up for Haiji like Rikudo's. They could have even had the gay stuff since they did the whole energy beam thing.

My boy. DnA is gonna be awesome.
It's already confirmed they're making another season announcement in Sept. I don't know nationals right now is awesome Bokuto is the man.

If anything it should've been the opposite with the team celebrating and then Kakeru have their moment at the end away from everybody.

Despite the little flaws it may have, this show was heartwarming, wholesome and truly beautiful.
Inspired me deeply, which is what sports anime should aim to do. That's why I can avert of any criticism and just let myself enjoy this feeling of fulfillness I'm having right now.

Powerful show, really moved me. And I'm gonna miss it.
It was a nice 6 month marathon, runningbros. See you somewhere else.

But anons what is the point of running when you're already in your late 20's? Sure, health and whatever. But I'll never get to have team mates, to experience that shared feel of hope, to have a heroic moment like these marathons...

You wouldn't have these moments even if you were younger since you are so lazy.

That was a really cool satisfying ending and I enjoyed the threads.

But I still hate running. It's too easy to push oneself and that's overexertion. Overexerting myself makes me violently ill. Prince-tier illness. Oh well, some of us aren't made for it I guess.

You can apply the show's philosophy to anything you are passionate about, it doesn't need to be running if you don't like it. Everyone can take some inspiration from this story.

I bet Hana "likes" the entire team.

I wont let this thread die on my watch.

tfw when this thread dies there won't be a kaze ga tsuyoku fuiteiru thread again until some user finish the show months, maybe years from now and decides to make a new thread

If the manga wasn't finished this image would be 100% proof that there was never gonna be a season 2. Just a team of background characters.

Of course you will feel like throwing up if you all you do everyday is sit in your ass. Get out and start running even if super slowly. Eventually you will start getting stamina and some leg muscles.

Damn, what a great series. I was wondering how the series going to work in the second half of the anime since I thought its going to be just a series about running in the ekiden but man, the studio did it very well.Good shit, kakeru leading the team at the end was awesome.

Anyone else still tearing up a bit 24 hours later? I can't stop thinking about the show. I've rewatched the scene with Haiji approaching the finishing line like five times and it still moves me to tears.

that's pretty good for only 4 months or so of training user, what was your time?

I want Haijichad and Masachad to fuck.

I know I'm late to the party, but this was one of the best shows I've seen in awhile! Every time they ran and cheered for each other and as the bonds grew closer it made me tear up remembering days like that. Sharing hard trainings with your friends and the camaraderie that follows it. Every character had development, some more than others, but this wasn't just a regular sports anime and that's one of the reasons it was so great. I love this anime and was glad I followed along with the story while it happened

Here goes my daily fap

The OST is so fucking good
