Huh. Just finished going through 30+ chapters in order to catch up and... gotta say, regarding any kind of progress, it felt like >10. I don't dislike this manga, I really don't, but going through multiple volumes in a row felt like pedalling up a hill with 2 flat tires. I enjoy those chapters that expand upon side characters and I don't even really mind a lot of the drama that's going on here and there, but it always feels like we're taking 1 step forward and at least 3/4 steps back again with how subtle all the developments turn out to be. Oh well, still gotta root for that Yoshizawa x Nishida~

On chapter 27 page 3 what's that thing on Akira shoulder I don't get the reference

It's a Friend. :)

Someone really needs to give that baa-chan waitress a vibrator.

Yaay, two new chapters!

 

 

...Nooo, a cliffhanger!

oh man. I finally get my fix. :D

Oh wow look at that vol 8 cover :3

On the one hand, it seems like she doesn't really wanna get back into running to begin with. On the other, imagining manager cheering her on at a track meet is giving me diabetes.


I don't know if she really doesn't want to. If she was completely uninterested in going back, she wouldn't be making such a big deal of rejecting it, and she probably wouldn't be thinking about it all the time. It seems pretty clear that she is deliberately choosing something else despite the fact that she loved track, probably out of the pain of failure and the fear of failing again.

This is part of the comparison between her time in track and the manager's past attempts at being a novelist - the message seems to be that distancing yourself from your dream will taint the rest of your life with regret. Throwing yourself into a romance purely to escape from some other part of your life will doom that romance, because your partner will come to symbolize what you sacrificed.

So she has to come to terms with her life as an athlete one way or another - either by throwing herself back into it, or by just accepting that that isn't what she wants any more. But currently she still has lingering attachments, which she needs to address. What I think is nice is that the manager seems to sincerely want to encourage her to go back to it, though she'll probably interpret that as him attempting to put more distance between them.

Am I the only one that's bothered by the gigantic images and how long they take to load?

 

There are two of us! TWO!

I would really like for Akira to return to running, it is like a repress desire she has, and it would be awesome. It would give the story a nice turn how she will interact with the manager and her recovery in tracking.

The thing is, she also wants to go back. She only accepted her fate since she herself thought it was impossible to overcome it. With this faint glimmer of hope, she's back to brooding "but what-ifs".
 
Sure it's selfish of people to try and coax her back into running, but at least one of them does it because she's a friend of hers who knows how much she loved doing it.


Hey that's good and all if it's actually possible for her to go back (based on the past chapters that's a no) at the end of the day that random stranger just went and returned her past regrets I mean she is already happy with manager and her best friend is starting to understand her (btw her bf never bugs her to return) and her comes a girl with a selfish request to come and run again so that she could get injured again a 3rd time, and brood over her "what ifs" which btw it is never good to ask what if it is not a sign of hope it is a sign of regret and she is not giving her hope it's simply a false one. That random stranger isn't even a certified doctor to tell her to return.

It's not like her friend was working on a gift for him or anything. Nope.

Yea but she was way too agressive in her way of telling him to get out

You have a point.  But they're not finding out what the situation actually is before trying to push her.  Anyone who's actually in a sport and had an injury has to know it's not as simple as "I had an injury and came back, therefore if you had an injury you can also come back"--that's moronic.  Their insistence on seeing things only from their point of view as people still in the sport and going with their assumptions instead of asking her things and listening is a mental laziness that reaches selfishness. 

If you want to help someone, but not enough to spend time and attention to figure out what their problem is, then you can't want to help them all that much.

Manager-san doesn't consider himself close enough to start asking a lot of personal questions (and is trying to keep that line drawn), but he does respect her enough to start from the assumption that her decisions are correct until he knows different. And of course he doesn't want her to hurt herself again, like last time, which I would expect to be a no-brainer.  Manager-san saw that when she ran after someone before, it was bad.  So he wants to do things different this time--that is, he is officially not insane, which makes him an unusually good romance candidate by manga standards.

Into the trash you go

Come on, a torn Achilles tendon isn't the end, you can recover from it and go back to your sport. (not that it is easy ;-) ) Maybe the author picked an injury that is healable on purpose, don't you think?

 

Was talking about the mom, in the train.

 

Chapter #46

I have the feeling that If the manager knew what is happening with Akira he would try to incentive her to go back, to try to run again.

Think about it, Akira is doing the opposite, making he believe and desire to chase his dreams, while influencing Akira to give up hers.

Depending on the severity of the tear, it very well could be the end. If it's a minor tear, then yes, it can heal to be almost as good as new. But if the tendon tore a fair amount, it's highly likely that there would be lasting pain and weakness, possibly permanent. And if it tore all the way through, then even after major surgery it'd never go back to normal. A fully torn tendon can cause the muscles it's supporting to actually roll up like a ball under the skin. I personally injured a tendon in my knee about a year ago, it was a minor thing but I had to walk with a cane for weeks, and even now I get a pain if I step wrong.

Exactly. I had a torn shoulder tendon during high school. Before I could bench press 70-80kg after barely 3-4 months of training. If I were to try bench-pressing now... 40-50 would be the max I would be willing to attempt. I can't do pull-ups on a bar and even push-ups are painful.

 

And that's with a very good rehab, both physical therapy and various cryo/laser therapies.

 

She wants to run, everyone who got a little bit "addicted" to running or exercise in general wants to do it, and it's especially hard to get over it if she is afraid of getting hurt again. It's both conscious "I tried to run recently and hurt my ankle again" and subconscious fear of accident repeating itself.

And thus she realizes she's unhappy and the manager was right to hold her at an arms length away.

Why do people keep forcing her to go back It is extremely selfish of them to ask her.

Even assuming she was a first year when it happened, she was already second year by the time it healed.

 

By then, she would've had at least two years worth of training to catch up to. And that's assuming perfect recovery and rehab. All injuries are "healable", but there's not guarantee that you'll be as strong or fast as before them. For someone competitive, it's not just physical injury, but a mental one as well.

god, i hate png file...
