Synopsis

Kakeru Kurahara, once the standout runner at Sendai Josei High School, finds himself on the run after being accused of shoplifting at a convenience store. His escape catches the eye of Haiji Kiyose, a fellow Kansei University student, who’s struck by Kakeru’s natural speed and talks him into moving into Chikusei-sou, a shabby apartment shared with eight other students. With his own savings gone after a loss at a mahjong parlor, Kakeru grudgingly agrees.

At a welcome party, Haiji drops the real reason he wanted Kakeru there: Chikusei-sou doubles as the dorm for the Kansei University Track Club, and Haiji is determined to enter the Hakone Ekiden, Japan’s famed university marathon relay. The problem is that nearly everyone in the house is a total beginner—and none of them have any interest in Haiji’s ambitious plan. With the deadline closing in, Haiji must find a way to bring the reluctant residents together and chase a dream that suddenly depends on all of them.
