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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Narumi Shigematsu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kodansha Comics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/10\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.19h x 5.75w x 0.49d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798889336860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout The Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eShigematsu, Narumi:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Narumi Shigematsu has shown and published work internationally, from France to Spain, and is the author of manga such as The Story of a White Book, and BABEL among others.
