Spirited away and Akira are two separate genres with two separate settings about two completely separate things -_- they're both really good, though yes, just like with books/movies the manga is usually better. Though the Akira anime is so different its hardly even the same story.

How is this? I keep seeing it mention/ reading a bit about it, but they are made for outdoors running right? I doubt they are effective on a tread mill. I do recall reading that you have to be careful of your posture while running because it's easy to damage your pinky toe while wearing these shoes.

I've never heard of damaging your pinky toe. If you like being barefoot it's awesome. The only problem is that if you wear them in public it's yelling "WEIRDO". If you were to go outside barefoot and try sprinting across some grassy area you would default to running mid/forefoot striking. The invention of running shoes influenced the change to heel-toe striking which is just poor body mechanics.

I've always wanted to try them but yeah they're pretty strange. I once did a "man challenge" in college that was like swimming/basketball/running/pushups/obstacle course and the dude in fivefingers dominated when running both track and outdoor.

I know a few people who wear them and they swear by them.

But my ex wore them exclusively, so they have a negative connotation in my mind...

I used to have a pair of five fingers, I was a fairly early adopter. In MA you used to get nice comments from people about wearing them and it became a bit of a fad. I lost them unfortunately and now they only come in really ugly colors just like all running shoes now.

However, the research now shows that minimalist shoes don't provide any particular kind of performance benefit aside from the lighter weight and that forefoot striking in general is slower than heel striking. The main benefits are that it puts the stress on different muscles and joints so if you have bad knees from normal running you can sometimes keep on by switching to barefoot style, and top athletes do find some barefoot training to be beneficial (but always race in shoes).

More info below. Now, I love being barefoot and all and it'd be cool for researchers to say it's the best but it's just not what they're saying right now.

I got them after doing some reading and in preparation for a tough mudder (which I highly recommend fivefingers in that situation). Everyone I know that's made the transition has enjoyed it but that's merely anecdotal. I can't stand the feeling of cushy padded running shoes, the bottom of my feet curse me when I do. Shuts off all the musculature/fascia which leads to dysfunctions.

I'm more of a "if that's how you would naturally do it, it's most likely optimal" kinda guy. The quote from the article was pretty telling: "That being said, I emphasize small amount because we are so unaccustomed to this lack of support that it can cause serious injuries." After reading that article I think the TL&DR is: Some people have spent so much time in artificial running conditions (cushioned shoes with arch support) with poor mechanics (this can be a whole host of issues) will have not great results switching to barefoot running, at least not all at once. It's better to be gradual with the conversion." Which is basically the recommendation I've always come across. If you can't even get into a full squat with your butt to your heels (which is a range of motion that everyone should possess) It's probably best to work on that gradually before you throw hundreds of pounds on your back for a squat.
