| SO Gou has a muscle fetish and the guidebook says that Rin's hobby is muscle training. siblingluv. |
| Sensei's going to wear swimsuit in the final episode, calling it now. I love how this show doesn't take itself seriously. |
| I didn't expect for this anime to be this funny! n_n It's also a plus that they didn't make Gou/Kou annoying like some usual [minor] female characters. Another plus is that she actually contributes to the story :> |
| Gou is pretty much the anime-fication of all the fan girls. Hahaha. It seems Haru gave leeway to Rin, since he kinda lost his mind in the water... so Rin isnt satisfied with the win... and damn, their bond is deeper than I thought. |

Mayanei said: Orevataf said: Wow, they toned down on the manservice a bit and focused more on the story. ED still as gay as ever though. Won't drop it for now, a much better episode than the first. ED is actually pretty clever if you look at the symbolism. Like at the clubbing scene, their dance moves refer to their swimming styles and they're all inside the pool (which is why the background people wear masks, which are connected to oxygen tanks by straps). And how there was no water in the desert. Wow, I actually never thought of it that way. The only thing I thought was, Haru was thirsty but he could never get the water, and no one had water except Rin and he was flaunting but at the end he decided to share. I have a strong urge to rewatch this episode, but I have other work to do. Like get studying on my damned chemistry test hahahhahah nope. |
| Just from that race, i can tell the racing scenes will be beast as fuck. People bitched way too early about this show, it looks like it will have plot and development. |
The only reason I watch this anime is for Gou. Best Character!!! |
| I decided to give this show another few episodes. I liked this more then the first episode, still not sure if I'll continue it or not. The characters seemed a bit more human and likeable this time. |
| Good episode. Excellent animation. |
 |
| IM SO PLEASED WITH ALL THE GOU SCENES! ; U ; GOU IS MY SPIRIT ANIMAL <3 and stop being grumpy Rin ; - ; |

I think these two would find they have a lot in common ; )  |
AnyaOtaku said: qftI think the teacher is my favorite character. Much better episode than the first, it was actually about something this time. Haru's angst annoys me, but whatever. It's going to be a long time before his habit of stripping whenever he sees water is anything but hilarious, so I'm willing to put up with it. |
| Good ep, although im not sure if i really wanna watch them try and restore there old swimming club hopefully it doesn't go in that direction. |
 |
| Got a lot of laughs out of me, I'm liking this show so far. |
| “Suppose, gentlemen, that man is not stupid.” |
| Less fanservice, more story. I approve of this. |
 |
| Interesting episode so far. I'm starting to enjoy it now. TinkleTinkle-Hoy said: I think these two would find they have a lot in common ; ) I was thinking the same thing once Gou/Kou joined the team. |
| I'm watching it for Gou only <3 |
 |
| oh there are technical terms, what a twist! |

| This show is too silly haha Ama-chan sensei in a bikini? YES PLEASE!!! |
| Gou has to be the best character. I mean, come on, she's a girl. |
LoneWolf said: @Josh makes me sad to call myself Canadian. |
| I liked the episode, it was fun plus now we got to know why Haru give up swimming competitively |
| Thi show is getting better and better. Still waiting for Rei in the next episode. Also, is everyone else getting that Haru is autistic? Not like the 4chan "duur ur autistic" kind but the real mental disorder. He has a few symptoms like an obsession with water and poor communication of his emotions (as well as a lack of social awareness like when he tried to go into the aquarium). I think this is gonna be 2deep4us....get it...because they're swimmiers... |
| I didnt think i would enjoy this so much.Actually...i didn't want episode to end, lel.Mostly because of Gou and Ama-chan, but still! i hope things stay as they are = much of swimming and even more of Gou. |
 |
| So the reason Rin is still mad is because Haru lost on purpose? Oh, Kou/Gou. Love her. Great ep! |

-MgZ_ said: So the reason Rin is still mad is because Haru lost on purpose? Oh, Kou/Gou. Love her. Great ep! I believe it's because he doesn't take the competition serious, and feels Haru isn't taking full advantage of his talent. Also, Rin only won on his kicking ability while Haru was the better swimmer. |
 |
| Good episode overall, Gou is the best character in the show.. 4/5 still shipping Haruka x Sensei |
 |
| To me Haruka looks a hell of alot like Tatsuya Shiba i hope i can stop seeing that if Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei ever gets an anime. Well it was a better episode than last week and more Gou makes everything better. |
| Othinus Touma Pairing http://hestia.dance/ |
| The swimming at the beginning was intense af. I didn't really expect Gou to join the club, and they pushed the glasses guy's intro in the next one. |
 |
| I FREAKING LOVE THIS |
| Haru you can't just decide to get in any body water!!! |
 |
| This is surprisingly getting good, excellent animation, and progressing plot. Reminds me alot of Kuroko no Basket. I expected this show to be like k-on where they don't focus on the plot at all. |

Kinda hard not to get that kind of impression. o.o ROFL I'd love to see some fanart of Haru trying to swim in awkward places... In an aquarium where the fish are all staring at him In a local fountain In a water holding tank Be creative. Great episode. I couldn't stop giggling the whole time. Gou grew on me a lot, sensei doesn't annoy me quite as much, and what the hell is wrong with Rins teeth? |
  |
| can see gou imitating many of the viewers. pls get in swimsuit soon plox. and sensei too kthx good story y0. cant wait to see what happens |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| Good ep. Toned down on the MANSERVICE and started the developing the plot and characters. This show is good bruh, I am glad I picked it up. |
| Ignoring the gay parts, it's pretty decent. Kou's ultra kawaii, and I'll be watching this anime only for her! I wish it was more like Prince of Tennis though, now THAT is what I call a great sport anime! |
|
| Now that they fixed the pool it's time for swimming ^_^ Gou <3 <3 |

I feel like they're trying to differentiate Haruka and Rin with their teeth like Haruka has straight teeth like a dolphin (do dolphin even have teeth) and he's constantly compared to one and Rin is like a shark and he's very aggressive idk am I even making sense? |
| Gou and Ama-chan are the best XD Hmm could the photo be from the time Rin went to Australia? Possibly something happened then. |
