| Amazing animation, good OP, nice (and kinda cliche) characters, and most importantly; gay athletes. I'm sold. |
| Ok, lets see.... Good, really colorful animation, nice art style, fine OST, catchy OP (by the same band who did Overlord OP, so yeah), and in terms of plot it is not anything special except the fact that it it about parkour, so that is pretty interesting....Characters are ok, pretty much likable.... So, I am not disappointed by any means, and I cannot wait to see where this will go. I hope that Madhouse will do proper job as they always do. |

Dopu said: In this episode we see the second runner running BEHIND the first runner, so why would you accelerate as the first runner in that scenario? You could just slow down since the second runner needs to catch up with you anyway and it doesn’t really matter when he does (as long as it's in the zone). I was wondering the same. |
That dude looks like Armin (Shingeki no Kyojin). |
| "Prince of stride". Not really the most original title, but ok. Well that was a pretty good first episode. Although the "reviving the club" set-up is something that has been overused in sports anime. Madhouse, as always, did a great job on the animation, the art style is kinda similar too Free!, although the colors hurts my eyes a little. They're too bright and there's too much contrast. So pretty much stride is a combination of parkour and track and field. I hope there's no shipping between the two guys by fangirls. Seriously. |

| Oh I hope it will be another good show by Madhouse. This first episode was impressive, I love parkour and I think the sport is well pictured here. I'm eager to watch the second episode tomorrow :) |
| that was decent. action was great. didnt really like the bgm at some parts but its not that bad. a bit cheesy, but i like the presentation. parkour + running. interesting. |
 |
| I feel like this is going to a reverse harem-ish direction, which is bad, but the overall anime is pretty decent. Let's see what the second episode has to offer. |
| OMG! Madhouse did it again! totally hooked for this one! 5/5! |
 |
| This is certainly an interesting anime. The animation is good, the sound is good, the action scene was good however the plot doesn't seem that good. |

| The leg touching is weird; I hope people don't go around saying this is full of fanservice because of that. That's not fanservice, please. Maybe it's meant to be, but nah, he's just weird. I really like the direction the animation is taking; a bit stylized in the way they have their little cuts. Good stuff from Madhouse and it's honestly a pretty fun-looking sport to keep up with. |
| Will this finally show me otome game adaptions can be good? Looks like a decent enough sports series so far. |
 |
| This was amazing. I loved it. On to the next episode |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| The guys from Free grew some land legs! Maybe Haru Takeru will start undressing and feeling up people's calves. Definitely a solid start, love the concept and the characters are pretty likable right off the bat. Anime just has a way of taking seemingly uninteresting sports to watch and bringing them to life. It looks like there's lots of strategy, improv and thought put into how to traverse a course as well as being a reliable Relationer. Also lol @ the video removal. *shakes fist at Youtube* |
 |
| Don't like the art but will watch this anyway, looks promising. |
 |
| That was bad. The art sucks and the story seems boring. |
moodie said: where is the madhouse fanboys now? here :D interesting, very! there's not much strategy to running tho. LOL he's an idiot, though. why didn't he jump off the stairs at least? and the other guy is a cheater since he knows the school inside out. i thought so... ----- good episode, i was really hyped to see the running being over the top. and it was done so well :D |
 |
| Interesting episode and the characters seem likable, let's see the next episodes... |

| Pretty good first episode and the characters are likeable. Animation is good too! |
| The girl seems boring, passive and weak. I already dislike her. The leg-touching guy is annoying and boring too. The blond one seems okay, as does the rest of the club. Not sure if I'll continue or nah. I liked the animation of the race. |
| L had a poster of Norman in his room |
| Art and design are great. And stride is like track and field but with parkour I'm assuming? |
| I've been looking around trying to find out if a parkour anime existed and I landed here. Looking forward to this. |
