posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Streaming service HIDIVE announced on Wednesday that it will stream the Run with the Wind television anime series in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and "other select territories" starting on Thursday. New episodes will stream on Thursdays.
The television anime of Shion Miura's Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru (Feel the Wind) novel premiered in Japan on October 2, and it will run for 23 episodes. Crunchyroll is streaming the series as it airs.
HIDIVE describes the series:
Kakeru is a former elite runner in high school who finds himself down on his luck. After being chased for stealing food, he's saved by Haiji, a Kansei University student and a fellow runner. Having nowhere else to go, Kakeru is convinced by Haiji to move into a dormitory with eight other strangers. Before Kakeru is even settled in his new home, Haiji announces his ambitious plans to enter all ten of them into one of the most prominent university relay marathons in Japan, the Hakone Ekiden. There's just one small problem: with the exception of Haiji and Kakeru, none of the residents have ever run competitively before.
Sentai Filmworks has licensed the series and plans to release it on home video.
