Finished reading Gun-Jou (2011) on 12/12/2015.
Author: Sakamoto Kou | Artist: Kirihara Izumi
Chapters: 30
Yomogihara Michi is a petite girl whose running speed leaves bikes to shame. After living abroad, she returns to Japan and decides to start an Ekiden (long-distance relay racing) club at her new school. However, if she doesn't gather five club members before the time is up, she will have to fulfill her promise to a fellow student and move to another school.
Her path to success is filled with drama and high emotions as she opens old wounds in the people around her as Ekiden was once a painful experience for them.
7/10 - Albeit short, this was a very enjoyable manga, addicting too. I really recommend it for those of you who like to get hit right in the feels. I even found myself cheering for every character throughout the whole story. I would love to see an anime adaptation. I really think it deserves one. It'd be nice to see more chapters come out too, but at the moment that doesn't seem to be happening very soon.
Gotta go fast.
