I totally loved episode 2, mostly because of Sousuke! <3 I mean, one can literally melt just looking at him! I'm also enjoying this new, less gloomy version of Rin, who's becoming quite enjoyable. Thanks to Sousuke's arrival, I think that this season will be a very interesting one, especially considering how things are between him and Haru. |
| Sousuke is HOT!! & Makoto's siblings are hella cute |
| veery good episode, that last swim competition was very good! Also like the new Rin's team, a worth opponent for Haru's for the rest of the season :D |
Haptism93 said: Demi_V said: Rin would be my crush out of all the characters, if he didn't have those annoying shark teeth. It bugs me! So unattractive. Haha, that's what is bothering me, too. Why did they give him such ugly shark teeth, why? Different strokes for different folks ^^ I actually love those teeth. They give him character, contributing to his overall sharp/shark theme. I wish there was a little explanation behind those teeth, though. His father, from what I remember from the flashbacks, didn't have "shark teeth" so maybe his mother or grandparents do? It would be funny to have an episode with other members of his family, considering we've seen a good part of Makoto's. By the way, am I the only one who loved the new character, Momotarou Mikoshiba? He was so funny and cute XD Even though he's probably going to only be used for gags, just like how Ai's only been used for the "loyal subordinate" and "inferiority complex" moments, I'm still going to be looking forward to seeing more of him. |
| Cuteness runs in the Mikoshiba family I see <3 |
 |
| "Team Shark" *looks at Rin's teeth* I see what you did there |
 |
| Hmm I wanted to see the scene of Makoto at the contest... I am sure he was blushing hehe :3 |
| I really loved this episode. The muscle contest with Gou made me laugh. I think I actually like this season better then the last it just is so much more entertaining for me. |
| I just came here to say that Rin is F* HOT. |
| EP2 is a goddamn #goodpositivevibes episode. Love the characters, love the humor, and love the swimming. |
| That whole Mikoshiba scene was so amusing. Ha ha Such sexual tension with that scene with Sousuke (and I honestly thought they said his last name was Yamamoto last ep--but Yamazaki, was it? or am I off again...) and Haru. This show. |
 |
| THIS EPISODE WAS MAJESTIC AND BEAUTIFUL AND I SHIP RIN/SOUSUKE SOO HARD I CANT EVEN FEEL ANYTHING RIGHT NOW |
| They are killing off Rei in episode 3! FINALLY KYOANI IS DOING SOMETHING EVEN MORE RIGHT! (I know that it won't really happen. I just wanna push Reitards I mean Rei fans their buttons :3) Makoto winning the muscle contest. Not surprised there. <3 Sousuke is kinda like Makoto but with an attitude. I like him. 4/5 |
 |
| Great episode. I like both new characters ^_^ Seijuurou's brother is so funny. |
 |
| I've liked this episode, it's good to see a Samezuka vs Iwatobi SC race. Momotaro reminds me a bit of Yata Misaki (K Project) when he's young, I mean physically o_o |
| I would post here every week, but my posts would most likely turn out to be my spouting out garbage on how awesome Rin is. X3 I'm getting bad vibes off of Sousuke. I don't really like him; he kind of seems like an asshole. Rin, defend your uke from him!! Heheh, just kidding.

| Makoto-onii-chan~ >w< Sousuke seems like a fine seme, looking forward to moar yaoi hints this season~! New character voiced by Suzumura-san is also pretty cute (well, his characters are usually totally adorable, so I'm not even surprised). Still hate Nitori's gayness. Besides that it was quite a good episode, but... What's with the title of the next one?! I swear I'm going to be really mad if Rei quits swimming, damn! -_- Hopefully that's just some place for drama though. |
  |
| It was really better than the first episode in my opinion. They got some new characters that will create brand new intresting situations, I'm sure of it. By the way, I loved that eyebrow thing that Rin did while talking to Makoto! |
| Sousuke's voice is so distinguishable. just hearing him once I instantly knew who his voice actor was. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
| Sousuke should stop harrasing Haru, I feel like we'll be going through the same kind of conflict as first season... The new guy, Mikoshiba is so funny though! Gou got a fan too~ Although he didn't have a lot going muscle-wise for her preferences xD |
 |
The OTP was very strong in the newest Free! Iwatobi Swim Club episode ;b When Rin talked to Rei...hey, I don't ship them but that was a pretty interesting conversation. I'm trying to like Sosuke Yamazaki, but...I don't know why he doesn't strike me as a particularly kind character. I do understand he'd be pretty jealous of Rin and Haru's friendship, it just seems like he's really mean and would be the type to make disparaging comments. Maybe it's just me, though. Momotarou Mikoshiba is definitely one of my favourite characters in the series! He's hilarious, and I think it's really funny that he has a crush on Gou/ Kou, just as his brother does. That scene with Haru and Makoto jogging I ship it like Fedex |

| Wait a second. They're choosing their careers. Are their choices the one we see in the ED? Does that mean Makoto wants to be a fireman while Haru wants to be a merman? Hmm... Sousuke seems like he's a bit jealous of Haru. I sense some rivalry. Momotarou Mikoshiba the Sea Otter appears and he is very interested in Gou. That bastard. You sense some rivalry over here? I definitely do! Haru always seems to be getting cornered by other hot guys. He should be careful. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| Mikoshiba might become one of my favorite characters. He's cute haha ♥ |
 |
| Pretty cool episode! :3 Sousuke Yamazaki...he's pretty scary! Especially towards Haruka! D: Well, he is Rin's best friend...so, I guess Sousuke wants to protect Rin somehow....from Haruka. o-o The Relay race was cool, pretty intense how Sousuke almost caught up with Haruka....and the race looked like a tie! D: Nice episode overall....what's going to happen to Rei next episode?! D: |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| Why does Haru have to be the victim again? 1st season was Rin messing with Haru, now this Sosuke dude wants a piece of him this season. Although, when Sosuke told Haru not to get in Rin's way again, what I actually heard was "You're not going to be getting in the way of me and my soon to be boyfriend!" Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| The preview worried me, Rei you can't leave!!! >_< I really like Sousuke (after Haru), I guess he's just being possessive. Also, I can't wait for more MomotaroxGou! :D But he really needs to build more muscle if he wants to win her over lol xD |
| Gou is my spirit animal. Also, I'm loving the OST. It's way cooler than I would've thought it would be! |
 |
| Amazing episode~!! Lovelovelove Momotarou and immediately recognized Suzumura Kenichi voicing him <3 & poor Haru can't catch a break |
Lala-p said: Lovelovelove Momotarou and immediately recognized Suzumura Kenichi voicing him <3 Same!! I was like "TSUBAKI'S VOICE YO" |
RedReaper said: That was such a great episode I took so many screenshots and giggled like hell! I want this to be a thing. I'm enjoying this season much more than the previous one. I hope it'll keep up the good work >w< |
| Rin and Sousuke. Sexual tension since 0:01. |
| dONT YOU TALK TO HARU LIKE THAT |

 » Escapism. |
| cmon kyoani. gou needs to show some skin. |
    |
| Ya know, Haru is still my fave and all but... Just ONCE, when someone pushes him against the wall, I wish Haru would actually stand up for himself. He is quite the pushover... Literally. |
| Rin HNNNNNNG great episode!! |
| The first race... and the first signs of tension... |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Wow, what an intense race. Great episode. Just love the two new characters. Sousuke is so cool and intense. I caught myself doing screenshots of him. Momotarou is just so funny and entertaining. I dig the voices for each chara. These VAs brought life to the character's personality. Just so fitting. |
| The new characters were interesting. I love where the plot is going with this Haru/Sosuke rivalry and what they are going to do after graduating. Rei and the Tachibana twins were so cute omg. I hope he doesn't leave the swim club. |
 |
| Momotaru and Sousuke seem to be promising new characters! I really do love this anime a lot. I think I'll like it better than the first season because Rin was very unlikeable as an antagonist (to me). Sousuke seems like an awesome replacement *^* |
 |
| Looks like Sousuke is holding a grudge~ |
