| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Whoa, this episode was intense. I mean, if I was stuck in the storm like that in the middle of the ocean, I'd be screaming my lungs out as well. Well, this was almost a CPR. ALMOST: Good thing Rei was saved though. Ah, that was a close one. Mini Rei is also kawaii imo. Just saying. I just love the bro bonding of this episode :3 Dat Rin in a ponytail. |

| Fear comes again at the important moment. The main guy and cute guy, who woke up later, had to save both of them. They got separated when saved. Yeah, I thought that some fans would get excited about that almost CPR. Makoto's confession about it has to be the main guy together. Later they are at an island and ended up in abandoned Rest House. Eating, then horror tales. He's in love with water, as always. So many comedy even after that intense. The reason behind Makoto's fear revealed. Wow @ that reflection. They swam back and slep on the beach... lol @ Mamo's character there. Preparing for the competition after the trip. (lol @ that preview narration about Mamo's character's embarrassing moment) |

| THANKS GOD IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. orz haru used the "eye" that'd be usually seen when he sees / heard "water" the next ep preview dialogue tho,wwww |
| 30 seconds swimming 20 minutes and 30 seconds slice of life. |
| AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCKING LOVE THIS SHOWWW RIN! PLEASE SHOW YOU CARE MORE ;///; I really love this quarto of Haru, Makoto, Nagisa and Rei better than Rin replaced with Rin xD |
| Makoto did you just hide a confession under the pretext of swimming? You sly dog you.... The back story behind his fear of the ocean was a little weak imo |

| so everything went fine and they all survived ;) damn that CPR scene sure was a tease. and rin looked quite fine with a ponytail c: |
 |
| Aw that was a nice episode. Glad everything was alright, and lol at Makoto, Nagisa, and Rei getting scared in the lighthouse and Haru was so chill about it. Ew at the pineapple mackerel though...the backstory behind Makoto's fear wasn't as sad as I thought, but I can see why it could traumatize a little kid. Gotta love Makoto saying all those lines about wanting to swim with Haru and the team :) That starry sky scene was beautiful too, and even magical when they looked down to see the reflection of the stars in the water they were standing in. And as always, pretty bgm. |
 This is fucking beautiful. |
|
| Good to see that everyone was okay after swimming through that storm. |

| Cute episode <3 |
 |
| I now love Haru even more after this episode if that's even possible ;w; How much he cares about Makoto is just adorable. And just how much they all care about each other I just *drowns in own feels* The almost-CPR scene *sighs in disappointment* Pretty much everything Haru says is hilarious. With his mackerel obsession and his "love story" I can't even think right now, all I can say is this episode was great and I can't wait for the next. |
| Idk, I just. My brain isn't okay. This episode was just perfect. The only problem was not enough Rin. |
| Really nice episode :D Loved how they resolved the problem and spent the time together on the other island hehe :) Their interactions were fun ^^ The scenery was beautiful with the stars and stuff. And...Oh Rin, u feel lonely :(...He was even going to check on them in the tents, totally tsundere XD |

Stark700 said: It really is, probably my favorite part of the episode too.This is fucking beautiful. Damn I love these characters so much <3 |
 |
| lordy when they were standing in the water with all the stars a little tear escaped god damn it |
 Love at first sight xD But, anyway, this was a good episode, I'm glad we got to learn more about Makoto and his fear of the ocean, it must suck having to be reminded of a past like that. Also, I'm glad that CPR didn't happen, that really was way too close. And it seems like the tournament is going on next episode, it's awesome to see the actual plot moving forward :) |
 |
| wow INTENSE i don't think I like the CPR scene b/c it seemed to me they used it as fan service and not something that could have potentially saved Makoto's life... Those whole light house seen was great and we got to see some nice bonding time. It was very amusing seeing Rei hide behind his kickboard (what a dork) |
 |
| Makoto and Haru had a little eye to eye moment, aww. They where scared of going into the rest house? Seriously, don't freak out like that, they should be happy for being lucky enough to find a place for the storm. I lol'ed at the story about Haru's first love. Nagisa did a great job on lifting the mood. He's usually a little too upbeat but in this situation it's good to have him around. Small Rei and Makoto are so cute <3 Rin went out to check on them <3 The girls will never know what happened that night. |

| Pretty nice episode. The visuals are just astounding as usual especially with the stars at the end. I laughed quite a bit this time around too. |

| how did they boil the water? There was no power... |
| Amazing episode! I'm so sorry for Makoto. I'm glad he's able to overcome his fears thanks to his friends though. |

| I need more Gou or i won't be able to finish this. |
 |
| I went to the Free! tag in tumblr, but then I got scared right and left. They are going crazy over there |
  |

| Not a bad episode, but I think a threshold in gayness has been crossed. |
 |
| I want my own Makoto Tachibana packed and delieverd in less than 24 hours. He's such a nice guy and a good friend. The way Haruka worried about him was adorable too. They're such best friends I'm going to cry. (dat mouth to mouth scene though for a sec there i was like damn kyoani u doing it then they like naw we ain't) Swim team bonding <3. Haruka's love story was so him. Rei is too cute honestly. I thought he was going to be a really serious character but he's just a big dork. No wonder Nagisa loves messing with him (refrige-"rei"-tor, god that was so hilarious). Rin was worried about them that's why he ran by the beach at the end. He's probably too stubborn to even admit to himself that's why he did it though. Rin can't you see how much fun you could be having. Rin pls. |
Kerozinn said: yup summarized the whole show.30 seconds swimming 20 minutes and 30 seconds slice of life. |
|
| Not the best episode for me. And the fact that I'm not so fond of Makoto (and his unhealthy obsession with Haru that is striking even more now) didn't help at all. Hope to see lots of Rin next Wednesday, 'cause I've missed him this week. Nagisa, I'm sorry for not loving you from the very beginning, you're awesome. |
| I don't know why but I really enjoyed this. I think it's because it was more slice of life-y. Also Makoto best free |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |

| Go ***k yourself. Polite as usual, lightXTC |
| Good episode. I dont know why but i was cracking up when Nagisa wrote Rei's name 3 times on that little box lol. |
