It's too bad Shindo's girlfriend wasn't more understanding. He's a good guy, and a hard worker.

Wow! It is interesting to know in a more appropriate way the character of Shindo and to see how the group is cementing more and more: it is pleasant to see how nobody stays behind. Now Haiji also feels the pressure, the situation becomes more and more exciting. Funny comic sketches. That guy at the end of the episode scared me. Now we have to wait only two days for the next episode, I can not wait!

Cool episode, that running in the rain looks very uncomfortable and cold, but I guess the temperature was still warm according to their comments

That Sakaki guy kept pestering our boys. Why he's fishing for attention that much? I feel bad for Shindo, he's so precious and when Niwa whimpered and shake his head, that's the cutest thing ever

Aw ;~; I think Shindo wouldn't have broken up with his gf had he just told her what was eating up his time, that he's serious about running, and have her come out to support him at track meets or even help practice timing them like Hana-chan. Get some girl bonding, and another timer in case someone's neck and neck.

She's his gf and didn't even know what exactly his new hobby/passion was :( None of the guys ever saw her, which means he didn't show her off. I don't mean excessively or in a cocky way, but just to let a girl know she's special to her mans.

We can feel sorry for Shindo, I know I do, but if you take note of these mistakes, it's perfectly a reasonable call for that girl to initiate the break up. I hope Shindo will learn from these mistakes. I'm glad he has running and a v supportive fam to help out during his healing time.

With that being said, I'm glad I'm not the only one who's noticed Yuki lookin' out for his peeps :') Kakeru is changing as well. And Haiji got that reminder that sometimes it's okay to just run because you want to run.

Little things like these that pushes a sports anime out of the norm and into something greater.

Uhh, in my opinion this episode had a bit too much fanservice, it was just annoying.

Poor guy had to breakup with his girlfriend. Well, at least now he'll 100% focus on running.

Shindo ;( I'm mad at her gf! Rather than breaking up, she should ask how's life of Shindo! Why he seems busy and all! But it's not loss of Shindo, he didn't deserve that girl! Grrrrrrrr

This was a needed episode. I'm glad we got an episode for Shindo! He seems like such a good person and super dependable. It's too bad he and his girl broke up but it seems like he hasn't slowed him down. I hope he gets the the time he wants in the next race.

It seems like Kakeru is getting closer to his teammates too, which is nice to see :)
I'm glad Kakeru is there to help Haiji and ease his worries. You can tell a strong bond is forming because they recognize each others' struggles and stress and empathize. Running in the rain SUCKS but it definitely helps build character and a sense of camaraderie.

I'm glad this anime really digs deep into the sport of running. It's not just about being a team player and the times. It's about perseverance, will power, mental and physical strength and pushing yourself. I 100% agree with Haiji when he said that being called a strong runner is the best compliment to say to a long distance runner.

who is that creeper tho O.o he makes me uncomfy ><

Lol 😂 what kind of relationship did Shindo have with his gf, I don't get these half assed relationships, like she didn't even know what her bf is doing, or what's going on, that she just broke up instead of supporting through a temporary hurdle? Like wtf do these people even talk about, coffee?? So stupid. no wonder I find so many bfs and gfs corny and shallow af. Relationships should be like friendships why would you end it just cause your significant other have something to achieve it's not like he stopped caring for her. Someone commented Shindo should learn from his mistakes that he lost his gf. I call bs to that and good his gf doesn't deserve a nice fella like him,how do you even know if she wanted to meet his friends, if anything having a real goal, working hard should make someone admire their partner even more if they loved them. So you go Shindo dumb that dumbass bitch and chase your dreams. Fuck that hoe.

Shindo had to break up with his gf in order to achieve his dreams

The new guy from the looks of it looks like Kakeru's relative or maybe some previous coach maybe

That abrupt break-up scene. Although little to no context was given about their relationship, I suppose it was for the best to move on.
What felt good was he choose running to deal with it. There was a similar situation in the case of King, who was suggested to pick up running to deal with his stress of job hunting. I've relied on running and later swimming purely to sustain a healthy mental being myself, the physical benefits was a bonus. The benefit of doing any physical benefit is quite easy to miss.
