The original light novel of the same name by Kotoko Ayana and Chinatsu Morimoto was first released on Dec. 26, 2016; it won the Special Judge's Award in the Kyoto Animation Awards that year and the studio subsequently published the story. It then adapted Tsurune into an anime series that premiered in Oct. 2018. The story follows higher schooler Minato Narumiya as his childhood friends try to convince him to join the school's archery club.
The Tsurune anime series can be streamed on Crunchyroll.
