100 Meters follows Togashi, a track star who is born to run. As a kid, he is naturally gifted and wins every 100-meter race without effort. But in sixth grade, he meets Komiya, a transfer student who is full of determination but lacks technique. In teaching him, Togashi gives Komiya a new purpose: to win no matter what. Years pass by, and Togashi and Komiya meet again as rivals on the track and reveal their true selves.

It’s a great sports movie about the urge to be great at sports, and it’s one of the smartest movies the genre has produced in a long time.

AV Club

Like the distance its sprinters dash over and over again, it’s predictable—even mundane at times. But also like those short bursts of all-out adrenaline, it can be transcendent in the moment.

Rated: B

Paste Magazine

We watch these runners grapple with the exaltation and absurdities of basing their entire existence around running 100 meters in a straight line, each bump in the road portrayed with dynamic, shifting animation.

Rated: 8.7/10

Loved the film! The rotoscoping animation style threw me off a bit, but I'd like to think it's because they wanted to capture the kinetic motion of an actual sprinter in action.

if you love the manga series, then this movie is for you. if not, then this is just a collection of artistic styles that happen to have a story about track and field and the importance of self reflection in life. The music is the only good part of the movie unfortunately.
