| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Tbh, I have faith in Shibuki even though he seems like a slacker in class. The diving training still remains pretty rough which I'm not really surprised by now. We also a view of the characters' personal lives at home in particular Shibuki. For most parts, I think it was a buildup episode. Hoping the pacing will pick up more. That hot pot made me hungry |
 |
| It seems like the main guy has ability to predict the turn? First goal is a selection to get into representative. She wants him to turn 3.5 times. So Sakurai-san's character was not so perfect after all because he had accident when he was elementary school. He had been used for the sake of the club, so he hated to hear "for the sake of MDC". lol @ Wild new guy's companion (not sure if his father or uncle or someone else) giving him nabe, which is not nabe's season. Only main guy is enjoying the training. After some training, the girlfriend invited for the picnic. She's approved of current him who wants to excel in his level in diving and more motivated. What the... there's a guy who searches for Sakurai-san's character?! 25:05 next. |

| Tomoki is determined as he is giving it all during his training. Seems like his friends, Ryou and Reiji, are probably jealous. The picnic scene with Miu and Tomoki was nice. |
 |
| That was my favourite episode so far. Yoichi hit his head on the platform, fucking hell. I saw something like this on TV and it is so scary, you could die there. Man, he just flew into the water unconscious and bleeding from his head. Also i might have misjudged our MC. He and his girlfriend finally spoke about him diving and she admires him for his compassion. Did he act this way towards her because he was too anxious about himself and diving to tell her? Could be, i liked how they resolved this. |
| Nice episode. That Yoichi injury must have been traumatizing. x.x It's nice to see Tomoki showing a lot of passion and drive to become better at diving. Glad to see the coach support him as always. Unfortunately, his sudden growth in terms of passion and drive is alienating him from the other two dudes who he used to hang out with. The conversation between Miyu and Tomoki at their little picnic was definitely the best part of the episode. It's nice that Miyu admires him but I still kinda feel that Miyu is too good for her own good. XD |
 |
| Poor Miu wanted Tomoki to notice her new haircut but he didn't. I think she just likes him too much that she won't complain. I do think he likes her but maybe not enough? It's obvious she wanted him to kiss her but he didn't get it. I hope things don't go sour between Tomoki, Reiji and Ryou. I like their friendship but maybe they feel that Tomoki is getting far ahead of them and that he's getting the favorite treatment from the coach. It looks like Shibuki noticed the tension. Hope he can give a hand somehow. |
| At least the girlfriend is supportive and doesn't try to rush him much. Maybe eventually he'll come to appreciate her properly. |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| hmm the other two aren't taking it seriously |
| Am i the only person who notices how when they jump back from water there's literally no water on them? no water drops, they are not soaked in the slightest. LOL come on studio, do a better job. Anyway quite a nice episode, much better than that episode 1. Anime is fine i think. At least i dont hate it phew. And also not sure why people were claiming that anime is gay, there are not many gay undertones in this one even. Characters dont even have bromance in them, they look like merely acquaintances honestly. Everyone is diving for themselves, there's no team sport where you support each other. And main character has a girlfriend. Sure he doesnt look interested in her but I think he is jutst not interested in any romance. his mind is only on diving. |
| This episode made me wonder why this MC sometimes neglects such a great girlfriend.....I hope he realizes what he has and tries to be more like how he was on his date with her |
| More training and a picnic with the girlfriend... He literally needs to start noticing her or else I will start crying like omg Yoichi's injury reminds of that one diver who went to the Olympics and they also hit his head on the platform... (and this was like 1980 something) and the diver was gay plus I think at the time he had HIV. But so the stereotype in 1980 was all people had HIV so when the blood was going throughout the people people were so scared that they would get aids... it just reminded of that for some reason add in- [Oh his name Greg Louganis] |

| This show is starting to improve a lot. |
| LOL!! Who is that flashy guy at the end? I love that he's all, "Long time no see, Yoichi Fujitani!" and Yoichi didn't seem to care, lol. The flashy guy's coat swaying with the wind and his gorgeous hair. <33 I look forward to meeting him next episode! :D It's unfortunate that Reiji and Ryo became distant with Tomo... :( They're probably too young to comprehend their emotions. The two are probably jealous, and they're being left behind in a way, while Tomo keeps moving forward... I applaud Tomo for keeping up with his training and his efforts to improve at diving! Although, I do hope Reiji and Ryo will work hard as well, and the three can be friends like before! >< I was sad to see that flashback of Yoichi's head getting hit... x( I wonder how he really feels now... Yoichi's father wanted him to come back to practice for the sake of the diving club, but didn't say, "I want you to come back for yourself." So it was great that Asaki answered honestly: she's working hard for herself, for the diving club, and for her deceased grandfather. But her motives have nothing to do with Yoichi's desire to compete in the Olympics – he is diving for himself. :) I like that reassurance from Asaki, she's a cool coach. <3 I look forward to seeing Shibuki's improvement in diving as well. He's definitely got style, but needs to learn how to dive in a pool, to get the points at the Olympics! Shibuki is such a quiet character... I'd like to see Shibuki and Ooshima’s interactions more often. ^^ It was nice to see them eat hot pot together, although the room must have been hot already, lol. Maybe someday, Shibuki will be more comfortable and talk more with Ooshima? And maybe that way, Ooshima will talk to himself less. xD I envy Shibuki's ability to hang upside down on a monkey bar. ;______; I could never do that...not with my hands either. It was nice to see Miu and Tomo have a picnic together. At most, I see them as friends instead of lovers... xP Tomo didn't seem to care, when Miu revealed that she and her mom had a bet on which food he'd eat first, and that she was right for saying he'd choose the hamburger. :P It was cute to see Tomo blush when he saw a couple kiss, but he didn't kiss Miu in the end... And Tomo never commented on Miu's haircut, despite the number of times she touched it. xD It was nice to see Tomo reveal his feelings about diving, and Miu’s admiration for his passion. :) If Tomo and Miu break up later, I can still picture them as supportive friends. I look forward to seeing these boys train in Beijing! It'll be fun. We'll probably meet the rivals by then. :D |

| Not bad. We have an MC who's being shunned by his diving 'friends' but I don't see them working their butts off. At the same time he totally seems to take his girlfriend for granted. Maybe if he'd stop talking about diving we could learn about her. And that ending was a bit corny. |
| I thought it might have gotten better this episode but I guess I was wrong. I might drop it for now and watch it later once more episodes are out. The writing here is a bit subpar compared to other sporting Anime I've watched. It's just not for me I don't think. |
| Girlfriend is way too clingy or thats prob just me. But dam lol the rival of Yoichi's from the flashback in episode I think. |
Hinata said: Girlfriend is way too clingy or thats prob just me. But dam lol the rival of Yoichi's from the flashback in episode I think. I think she'd look clingy to some people because she's too head over heels for Tomoki while his feelings for her aren't that strong. I wonder if she will ever realize that but I think she started to notice that he doesn't pay attention to her. She tried to draw his attention to her new haircut but still no comment from him. Well, I guess there are guys like that. |
| Holy crap. That was a better episode than the previous one. It always happen, a "friend" of yours who will hate you because you're getting good at something which one of the many things that really grind my gears. And I think Tomoki's girlfriend is fine, and she's far from clingy. |

| Wonder if I'm the only one who thought the animation was not so good this ep? I've seen worse but still... guess I was bored by the story so my attention was on the animation instead... |
| Okay, so this was, by far, the best episode of the show and certainly the only episode that actually provided to entertain me and that too to quite a decent level. Glad to see how the relationship between Tomoki and Miu has stabilized too and the execution of it was indeed noteworthy too. Moreover, the picnic scene with the two was seriously adorable as well as a nice addition to the intense episode. Youichi's life-threatening fall during his childhood must have been a traumatizing event for him though. Nonetheless, a great episode that has most definitely managed kept me interested in the show as more episodes are due to come. |

I wonder if she will ever realize that but I think she started to notice that he doesn't pay attention to her. She tried to draw his attention to her new haircut but still no comment from him. Well, I guess there are guys like that. In every relationship, there's always one "reacher" and one "settler". Even if the difference is small on how "much" they loved each other, there's always one no matter what. In this case, Miu is obviously the one who's the reacher. I can't blame Tomoki for acting that way like he's taking her for granted. You know, not all boys are desperate to get laid especially those people who can easily get a girl. Their perspective is far too different than typical boys. He's also more into to his interest (diving) than romance or getting pervy thoughts like most typical teen do. Having said that, their interest don't align much, which is common in opposite sex.. He's more into to his passion, diving.. and she's just more into romance. I totally agree with you. I know that there are guys who place much more importance on their interests than thinking of romance and doing lovey dovey stuff with their girlfriends. Tomoki is one of those guys and maybe Miu will start to understand this side of him eventually. It's obvious she wanted him to say nice things to her and comment on her new look but I know that there are guys who don't pay attention to these details, which may lead to disappointment on the woman's part but I guess women learn to live with these things with time. Despite some people saying that Tomoki and Miu might break up, I don't see it happening. It's true that he doesn't show much interest in her but I think he'll come around eventually. I honestly don't see her dating his brother or anyone else for that matter as she's so in love with him. |

| Tomoki is so lucky to already have his life partner Miu! looks like the two are already envious of Tomoki since the hot babe coach is personally teaching him! 3/5. |

| I like Furina, I love Furina. |
| this show is pretty slow and boring. the highlight of the show is seeing that stupid water reflection effect they put on the characters' skin when they're up on the diving board. gives me a good chuckle every time. i'd like to imagine that when whoever it was made the suggestion to do that, everyone was just too embarrassed to let him know that it looked retarded and so it just fluked its way into the final product. i just do not care for the sports shows that make it a point to get into annoying, mundane drama between completely unlikable characters from the very start as opposed to having the audience learn about the characters through actual competition. i get some genuine enjoyment out of the scenes where we see MC losing himself in the sport and practicing his ass off or actually diving, but those scenes seem pretty rare compared to the amount of bland exposition/backstory dumps. also, did MC's girlfriend really have to do that meme where she moves her hair behind her ear like 30 times? come on, man...it's not that endearing or cute. |
| It keeps getting better. Everyone seems fired up for the upcoming qualifiers, especially Sakai, I wonder if he will be able to pull off the three and a half front somersault and get a slot for the camp. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| If only the animation was as good as it is at the ED...the whole thing would be more enjoyable. Also Youichi is becoming more and more likable. To think he kept diving after that accident...he is amazing. |
 |
| With only 11 episodes it seems like they're trying to cram in as much as possible. Main character, just break up with your girlfriend... And will he only have one diving trick? New character seems funny though x) |
| omg that hit o_o" No wonder he was still afraid of going back to the platform after that accident. It was amazing that he could surpass that trauma :o Those jerks... it's like their cutting Tomoki from their friend list just because they feel jealous :I Not cool guys! Miu got prettier with that new haircut ^^ but why Tomoki didn't realize her change in appearance, I wonder >_> Nice episode :3 |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| glad he break out of that 3 man friend slump quickly but highly likely this dud of a mc gonna make miu cry at some point and want no part of that so time to head out adios dive atleast ur op song was dope |
