Shitsurei! Kamimashita!

@@Kamimashita Chigau. Wazato da.

so what's so unrealistic about run with the wind?

@@im_sorry_i_forgot_my_username The whole training idea makes absolutely no sense. I'm sure you can make great progress running fast with some training methods, but what they do in the show is nowhere near workable levels. It is kind of disappointing because in Haikyuu they really did their homework and obviously researched volleyball all lot, but here they messed up pretty simple rules in training. I don't fault the creators for not knowing stuff, because well the anime industry is not really known for spare time and athletic activities (even though it would probably help a lot preventing tons of health problems later on) and they probably thought 'well it is just running training, we don't need to research this'. The way they train in the show is just destructive and it makes no sense for a person like Haiji that is incredible through with everything he does to achieve his goal to work his athletes that way. It an a way it is similar to the beach volleyball anime from last season that had similar issues for me that may be small for people that have no idea, but bug you if you have a bit of a clue depending on how sensible you are about that kind of stuff.

@@zomfgroflmao1337 To me, their training not being "realistic" matters little to nothing. It's their willingness to train that's making them capable of achieving what they are and not the actual training. As they become more and more willing to train, the faster and faster they become. This development system goes hand in hand with the themes of the show. What does it mean to be a runner? Do you have to be super disciplined? Or can it be something that's fun and stress relieving? The anime would suggest the latter. How they train has nothing to do with that. Running is a mental sport through and through. While physical training is important, it's lack and possibly unrealistic implementation is not worth dismissing a show.

@@zomfgroflmao1337 As someone who loves track and field and competed all through high school and College, I've been dying for a sports anime focusing on the sport. But now that one is here I'm terrified to even start it because nearly every sports show I've watched just doesn't feel quite right. None have really quite captured that aspect of being an athlete for me in a believable sense. Not even thinking about the special moves and exaggerations, just on characters motivations, the mental and psychological elements, the physiological aspects, etc... It sounds like at least to some degree you've experienced similar feelings. Based on your second comment the issues with training is probably going to drive me crazy as I've spent thousands of hours doing workouts on the track. Looking at the clips in the video got me excited but reading your comments have now made me hesitant again lol. Anyways I really just wanted to chime in that I understand somewhat how you feel about Anime and Sports, there are dozens of us!

@@habitablefiction7090 Great, you have no problems with inaccuracies and can overlook obvious mistakes. Enjoy the show because it is a great show for you, who am I to tell you what to enjoy and what not to enjoy but it has nothing to do with my critique of the show and the reason i don't enjoy it.
