Run Anime Run! 3t1e61
Anime is like a box of chocolates... something Hibike! Euphonium learned the hard way.
Stand up and run across the room and back. We'll wait.
Back? Awesome. Now think for a moment: did you throw your arms out behind you and let the wind flap them around? Did you make the appropriate facial expression necessary for proper running? No? You're obviously doing it wrong. Let these anime running gifs show you how it's done.
Anime ninjas running 3h4k4k
According to anime, ninjas like the cast of Naruto run with their arms flailing behind them. It's rumored (by us) that, at maximum speed, the wind pressure will one day help them achieve liftoff. Flying ninjas, aww yeah.
Running for your life 712ru
When you're running away from something, you better run like you mean it. Here, Fullmetal Alchemist demonstrates the correct way to flee: hold your arms at perpendicular angles and pump like your life depends on it (which, incidentally, it does).
Charging into battle 4x2s6c
In anime, when you're not running away then you're running towards something. Running into combat is less about running, and more about that face. Unless you're making a determined expression as Toradora! demonstrate, your attack just won't hit as hard. Fact.
Implied running 41447

Sometimes you have to let someone grab your hand and run, like in Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi. Come with me, there's no time to explain!
Anime animals run too g576l
Did you think only human characters would make this list? Cowboy Bebop is pretty darn cute when he runs too, even if he's not exactly getting anywhere...
Running like a squid girl 4m202w
There's running, and then there's Shinryaku! Ika Musume. That's right, Squid Girl gets her own category. This is my list and I can do what I want. You'll never run as cute as Ika!
