I know what you mean, it's a powerful moment

You are 100% accurate about what I love about this anime, and hopefully I was able to express that in my video as well.

@@RayTheOtaku Yea man you really did, I was really happy when I saw this in my sub feed. 10\10 most underrated KZfaqr.

No more fancy anime.......all real character......... everything real...we as a audience...failed to watch....this beautiful master piece

Defiantly, it's the hidden gem of the past two seasons

I mean there all great characters it hard to choose a fave, but that's a good reason for you to like King

@@RayTheOtaku thank you so much for support appreciate it bro

I look like King-san but twice his size and built like a sumo wrestler. But man, King-san's personality really struck my cord and I was so happy to hear his inner dialogue. Plus, King-san is the most "Regular Joe" of the crew and his struggle was shared by many other regular Joes and Janes out there. That's why this humble me can fully felt his pain.

Thank you so much, this is one of the best comments I've ever received. Also fun fact I cried a couple of time while editing it because of looking for the right moments.

it's amazing how much these character felt like my own friends and family, and I cried so may times from this anime, and yes everyone should watch this anime

Omg thank you. Never thought that I would make someone cry from my videos

Those are valid reason and I mean all of them are just lovable characters.

Wow what an interesting connection you have with the anime. Hope the band got better at your high school

That is true there are some aspects of the show that are need or don't make a lot of sense, but in my eyes it's a 10 out of 10 anime

@@RayTheOtaku yeah I also think it's great, shame to see it go under the radar when it released

imo that was all to show how much he was invested in the club: maintaining the fan page, training and studing which lead to him not having time with hiw gf. And as we get closer to the race they start to show how the rest of the cast is worried about him overworking and not putting time to take care of himself, making him sick in the end.

@@SABLe1996 really good way to look at it

SABLe wow this was a really good point tbh I didn’t get why they made him get sick the day of but now that you mention it it does make sense

Exactly man

Thanks girl. That is exactly what I wanted to do and it worked out so well.

thanks you so much, I'm still so proud of this video and seeing comments like this make it even more worth it

Thanks so much, I'm still very proud of this video

Thanks a lot man, I'm very proud of those videos

Glad you enjoyed it!

Wow I think you're my first german who has commented, so thank you.

@@RayTheOtaku Run with the wind is my favorite anime so i get a lot of videos in my recommendations. So was yours :D But you have a sub for sure ;)

No, thank you for your nice comment and enjoying my video

Same

It's an underrated show for sure, but I'm glad you discovered it, even if you just thought the boys were hot at first

Kakeru is my favourite character, along with Prince. I agree that throwing a punch at his coach was justifiable, and even if he gave Sakaki a knocking. Although physical harm is awful, we forget about physiological scarring and corruption all too often. These are not tolerable either, especially for someone who had to endure through alienation from the coach and Sakaki, and some others as well, for as long as Kakeru did. Kakeru was only trying to instill some sense into these two brutes in a blunt, yet effective way, because it is highly unlikely they would stop their behaviour if Kakeru told them everything they did wrong. It was the only way Kakeru could act on behalf of himself and a team, either from high school or Kansei University, whenever a bully stuck around, always singling Kakeru out because they sensed weakness in his character. It was a situation that forced him, out of anyone, to become defensive. Also, not everyone can be a snide, yet charming smooth talker like Haiji is 😂. It was a relief to see when the Kansei crew began to stand up for themselves in Kakaru's place, during confrontations with Sakaki. It was one of the many beneficial changes in his life that they provided. As well, despite mainstream belief, Kakeru is not a mean guy at all. His only truly mean moment is when he threatens to kick Prince off the team, and was short tempered and inconsiderate of his peers in ep. 8. It was a conflict with Haiji in training styles, and although he wanted everyone to succeed, constantly worrying about running without reward made everyone doubt Kakeru as a well-meaning guy - even Kakeru was suffering from the negativity, and didn't realize the flaws in his training style until later. The parts of him that many viewers find off-putting are unique quirks, which tend to only cause problems for himself (like disliking rowdy parties and going on solo sprints, rather than running with the team at the beginning - how's that going to harm anyone?) Any harm Kakeru does cause, like when he bumped into Hana after a particularly intense running away moment, was purely unintended. Also, the doubts he gave Haiji about running the Hakone were dismal, but they subtly demonstrated that he cares about other people's well-being, in particular the Kansei crew. He didn’t want them to suffer the harsh realities of track meets, or other problems that he experienced in the past, even though most of what Kakeru suffered through wouldn't actually be repeated in this running team, this coach, and in their dynamic. Had Kakeru not been concerned, he wouldn't have offered alternate suggestions at all, so it shows there’s goodness in his sensitive, shielded heart. It can be a difficult concept to grasp unless someone has a bad backstory and the "runner" mentality (i.e wanting to run away often) like Kakeru, but I hope this can bring out a fresh perspective, and bust misconceptions, in anyone who reads this 😊

@@Kayla-eq1hb Sorry for the late reply. I am such a boomer for not turning on my reply notification. I pretty much agree with you on Kakeru and I am glad you share my thought on what shaped Kakeru the way he is in his 1st year. Which makes his deliverance so heartwarming to watch. Kakeru is not good with his words but I am sure he'd do fine leading his crew in his 4th year. Afterall, he have the Twins and Hana-chan to help him out. And he is surrounded by people who adore and admire him. All the team need to do is to get this Olympian level athlete a Hakone Ekiden title on his belt!

@@Kayla-eq1hb BTW, Kakeru did right when it comes to Prince. I do not think Prince would gain the "Determined" perk if Kakeru didn't reach out and changed Prince. Well, Haiji would change Prince but that may be a bit too late if Kakeru didn't intervene.

@@drunkardhu6517 Yea exactly! He shows tough love

Thank you, I was really passionate making this video.

@@RayTheOtaku I could see, hear and feel the passion u put in this! I'm so glad i came across this video

nicely said man. because of this show I started to get back into running

@@RayTheOtaku thats pretty nice, do you have any anime recommendations?

Very good choices. Haiji is definitely number one for me

so true

Thanks a lot

I mean the last few minutes of the last episode did a good enough job for the update IMO

@@RayTheOtaku well yeah. I'm happy they did that . But I wish i could've seen those 3 years. But I get it. This isn't that kind of anime where it drags on forever. It's a focused story which ties up very neatly at the end.

Musa made me start this show since it was cool seeing a black character drawn well, but I fell in love with the rest of the story on the way

SHIT they're on to us

I would say that it seem the drama and the characters are the driving factors of what you like about certain anime. Cause to me I see Run with the Wind as a drama show that has running. I would recommend Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu or maybe March comes in like a lion

@@RayTheOtaku why yes, drama does play as the main factor. It's just that this anime don't need to show a lot of drama to point out what they want to delivers which is unique and rare to me. And I did watch march comes in like a lion long ago which is really good but sadly I had to push it aside cuz I was busy when I first watch the anime. But thank you for mentioning the anime cuz now I can make a note to watch it again when I have the time!

Funny thing is the writer Miura Shion sensei is a well knowned Fujoshi and rumor has it the original draft of RWTW was going to be a full blown BL story. I am glad the story ended up the way (I have no problem with BL but it may divert the story unnecessarily) it is and having Production IG doing the animation is the perfect combo... Which also got me to watch Haikyuu.
