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.

After the IZUMO company pulls the funding from Kazami’s Blade Project and sends him back to the United States, Rin follows his parting advice and joins her high school’s track and field team. There, training with talented athletes who have the use of both legs, she learns some key lessons about running. When Kazami eventually returns with a new plan to convince IZUMO to reopen the dev lab, she’s overjoyed…but IZUMO turns him down, and he resigns from the company. Without a sponsor but more determined than ever, Rin, Kazami, and the reassembled crew decide to set out on their own, with their sights set firmly on the Paralympics.
