Saijou Mariya, a classmate of Takeo's, would not count running as one of her favorite activities, but she ends up being assigned to a relay at the school festival along with Takeo. Takeo tries to help Saijou improve through practice. Saijou, who barely knows Takeo, gradually comes to realize his rare qualities...
She may be slow, but I love her anyway.
لربما بطيئة، لكنني أحبها على كل حال
Sie ist vielleicht langsam,
aber ich liebe sie.
Puede que sea lenta, pero 
la quiero de todas maneras.
Puede que sea lenta, pero 
la quiero de todas maneras.
Même si tu ne cours pas vite, 
je t’aime.
Sarai anche lenta, ma mi piaci.
Pode ser lenta, mas como amo.
