Hi! As you can probably see from this manga's ranking it isn't very popular, but if you somehow found this manga and you're debating reading it I would highly recommend it because it's nice and short meaning you can read it in around an hour and it can help with getting out of a reading slump. I felt that the concept of this manga was so unique and well thought out and it's very obvious that the author put in an insane amount of work including research on the topics discussed in the manga. I also found that this manga was very wholesome and justsuper cute overall and i really liked the art style because it was very unusual to me. Rin the main character to me shows a lot of personal growth mentally in the first chapter and physically as the story progresses. I think that others will be able to enjoy this series but a downside of it is that there is only platonic relationships and there isn't much romance but if you don't like that this manga will be perfect for you. Once again I would highly recommend!
One year after losing her leg, 16-year-old Rin is tired—tired of the painful physical therapy, tired of being treated differently, and tired of her stupid, heavy, awkward prosthetic leg. All that changes when she encounters the Blade Runners, a group of one-legged athletes who run with "blades"—carbon fiber prosthetics specialized for competitive running—made by their gifted prosthetist, Kazami. The blades are light, flexible, and formidably difficult to control—Rin can barely walk with one, much less sprint. But as she tumbles to the ground again and again, she rediscovers many of the things that she'd forgotten, and finds a new goal: to compete in the Paralympics. (Source: Kodansha USA)
