Yeah I agree. Though there are some awkward scenes for a guy to watch.

As a straight guy, I loved it.

But then again, I love yaoi. I hardly ever ship anything straight. Ever. (you just questioned my sexuality, I know.)

So I dont really know, maybe i dont count LOL.

I actually came with fear,I dont really like swimming and I actually feel a bit ill when it shows me an obvious fanservice for people who likes men. But that is not all of Free , it is an interesting anime and i saw the first season fast(planning to watch the second).

Being a sport anime it didnt make me want to do it like the others i saw but i think that is my fault, that and the boys abs were two resources i couldnt enjoy.

Free is a worth anime to watch but it isnt close to my favorites and my favorite is Hyouka from the same studio xD

I've seen my message before and it seemed i loved it, i liked it but is not so good for me

Its a fun anime. But as for characters, I only like Rin and Gou. I was not a fan of any of the other characters.

The drama was really lame, the yaoi bait turned out to be the best part. When it didn't try to make jokes which were equally lame.

Animation top notch, KyoAni is the best. But hot dudes make it very awkward.

It's not gay at all.

LOL, men being oversexualized and sex objects for girls?
I disagree 110%. They're not oversexualized and well, I didn't see them as sex objects.
I wonder why everyone likes to think this show is gay or yaoi. Seems like no one knows what yaoi really is.

Even if Free was all cute girls in skimpy outfits I wouldn't watch it because I don't care for sports or ecchi.

I love Free! it's one of my favorite Anime. I don't understand all the hate, just because it's slightly Yaoi.

Average story with effeminate characters.

I don't care about seeing "hot guys", but they were so effeminate and their voices were so weird that I felt a little disturbed.
Even Junjou Romantica's characters are manlier and more real than Free's characters.

I freaking loved it. Straight guy who likes seeing muscular shirtless dudes because man, I want to look that good.

It was gorgeously animated and really fun, I love team dynamics and sports. I didn't like some of the forced drama but thankfully that wasn't the core of the series and the story. I love the four main guys, Rin bugs me (though he thankfully has a nice finish to his arc in the finale and is a great character in the sequel, Eternal Summer).

I don't get the "gay" comments. There is literally one single scene that could be construed as "gay" and even then it's an almost mouth-to-mouth for the sake of resuscitating someone which is not sexual at all. But then you have a ton of anime fans who see guys have even moderately close friendships and think they have to totally have the hots for each other, which is absurd.

It's a funny and entertaining show and also rather inspirational if you're into sports or if you're a guy who wants to work out and be stronger and better looking, it's a great watch.

It's ok because it's a bit too gay unfortunately. That one girly boy in particular annoys me no end, no man acts like a cutesy schoolgirl.

I was hoping it'd focus more of the swimming sport than it did.

It's pretty fucking stupid and the people behind was wet while making it.

She has no idea about swimming at all.
I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.

What males?
As one of reviewers said, "I'm sorry, but even the beginning of Boku no Piko was not that direct fag bait".

There is such thing as shit taste. Only idiots think that every "work of art" should have the same value.

Persona anime are good. Deal with it.
