Prince of Stride: Alternative (Original Japanese Version)

Nana Sakurai loves Stride, the street-running team sport. She chooses to enter Honan Academy, based on an awesome internet video she saw of the Honan Stride Club. However, choosing an academic path based on an internet video may not have been a good idea.

It's clear that Takeru Fujiwara is a very talented runner, but it seems like he has teamwork problems. The Honan Academy Stride Club has plenty of other problems too, and they only have a few weeks to solve them all.

The Kichijoji Spring Stride Festival is on! Honan Academy faces off against Saisei High School, a powerful and extremely famous team.

Stride season is here, and high school teams from all over Japan compete for the spot in the End of Summer event. Honan faces off against Mihashi in the Atami hot springs resort area.

Honan Academy wins the race, but Ayumu is injured in the process. They must find a replacement soon, but in order to do so, the team must revisit a painful event from the past.

Kyosuke Kuga returns to the Honan Stride Club to cover for the injured Ayumu. The Honan team face off against Ichijokan, but before they face their opponent, they must first face their own emotions.

Summer break is here! The Saisei team invites the Honan team to their extravagant state-of-the-art training facility for a joint training camp.

The End of Summer Final Tournament has begun. The four best teams in East Japan compete to first determine the matchups. The Honan team is ready for the race, but not for the other surprises that they run into.

The defeat against Kakyoin sends the Honan team's spirit down to an all-time low. The younger members of the team seem to be most heavily affected. The team decides to do something different to improve the atmosphere and communicate some valuable points.

Riku's slump worsens. It seems like the cause of his poor performance is emotional, not technical, but rather than clashing with Takeru like before, Riku begins to drift away from the team.

The End of Summer Semi Finals are here! Riku has recovered from his slump and the team is ready to win. The Honan team will face off against their long-time rival, Saisei High School.

The final race is about to begin. Riku must face off against his brother, and is obviously nervous about it. However, his teammates are ready to support him.
