Wahhhh I loved it!!! so many feels ;-;
Poor Mako-chan... I love that we finally got to see another side of him, the side he always hides under a smile. Although they didn't do a perfect retelling of why he was terrified of the ocean and the goldfish still ended up a bit random, it was still touching.

I love how protective and sensitive Haruka is of Makoto, he even apologized for making a scary joke in his earshot, knowing Mako-chan is a scardy cat. Normally he would just scare him some more :)

Too bad we were robbed of the CPR... haha kyoani, damn you tease!! (my love for this pairing just maximized!!)

BTW, why did Rin's team go to train at that island when they have such state of the art facilities at their school.. ah, right, we need a random Rin in every episode ^^

Dat kiss CPR tease.

Makoto was afraid of the ocean because of a fisherman he knew as a kid drowned.
Gou and Miho were 2 sleeping beauties :3.

Suuppeer goood. All I was thinking is that Makoto and Haru would be such a good couple. As a yaoi fan-girl they're my fav pairing. CPR - hoping it happened.

Nagisa made me laugh so much in this episode. By the time I got to his rock-hopper penguin imitation, I was practically crying.

Haru and Makoto are such loyal best friends. I loved the eye-contact.

Poor Rei... He suffered so much during this episode.

Too much implied gayness in this episode... I loved it... xD

Rei almost got everyone killed... Hmmmm....
Makoto should have spat on Haru's face hahaha xD
Mako-chan in a yukata?! Kawaii!!!! <3
Love the fact Haru is very defensive for Makoto... xD

A very good episode. Balanced in comedy and melodrama....

This is an okay episode, just intense in the first half then became calm in the 2nd half. Makoto's story about the ocean incident made me felt sad though. Not enough of Gou in this episode and funny how they swim back and sleep XD.

Wow. The CPR almost happened! Whew. That must be a tease to all the shippers and fujoshi out there.

Also, this episode is nice, since it made their bond as a team stronger.

It was really nice near the second half. I liked the sky reflecting onto the ground scene. Reminds me of Shinsekai's. Really beautiful animating.

I wish I had a group of friends like their group.

That tease, seriously.
Really happy it didn't happen though. Despite my love for this anime, I have no desire to see mouth-to-mouth action >__<

I understand why some bits were left out, since Makoto was only really intending to tell the general gist of the story, but I hope they delve deeper into his reason - there's another part I want to see.

Looking forward to next episode :DD

The back story behind his fear of the ocean was a little weak imo


Yeah, I thought so too. It would've been better if they said he almost drowned b/c he was on that boat too or something and the old fisherman protected him.

Nonetheless, MAKKUN, LET ME LOVE YOUUUUUU <3333333

Yeah I thought the fisherman had to sacrifice himself to save Makoto, so then he'd feel responsible.

Anyone else notice that wink by Makoto before they all decided to head back?

Of course they weren't going to do CPR, there would be no middle ground for the viewers reactions LOL I don't know CPR but don't you push on their chest first?

KyoAni, you fucking tease. Where was that CPR when I Makoto needed it?!

His story was weak but it was still touching. I'm not expecting much from this anime besides hot dudes and some cute character interaction, so I'll take what I can get. At least it wasn't over-dramatic or anything. I find it pretty fun to watch!

I would be 100% okay if this was turned into a BL dating sim though.

I am glad CPR didn't actually happen or else the fangirls would have been screaming over the roof xD

They were eating pineapple mackerel xD

"We are not on a TV show" But they are XD Looks like Rei has a trauma about underwears xD Nagisa was trying to make Mako laugh, such good friends. I was expecting a bit more from Makoto's backstory but nonetheless, he is amazing. The sky scene was so beautiful. Makoto overcame his fear, great!

God, so less Gou in this week... First there was no Natsume (He is my bro) in Brothers Conflict, now there is so less Gou. This week was overall not my most favorite because my fav. characters didn't appear much. -_-

That mouth to mouth scene was such a tease, I cracked up as soon as Makoto cock blocked by coughing up the sea water.

I really liked this episode, got a good look at Makoto's past and how he's overcome his fear to an extent.

Makoto, please don't do this ever again to my little heart... D; It's strange how in any kind of anime, at some point when someone had been in the rain - even if only for a few seconds -, someone will say "you'll catch a cold", but it didn't happen this time. How refreshing. Rin's different hair style was unexpected lol. And the animation this time was so pretty, too~ Oh and, up until now, I couldn't understand why there are so many Makoto x Haruka (...or the other way around...) fanarts out there, but now it totally makes sense to me. Haruka usually doesn't care about anything unless it is somehow related to water, but seeing him a bit out of control and trying to protect Makoto definitely made him a more interesting character for me.

Am I the only one who thought Nagisa was HILARIOUS this episode. He made me laugh so much.. omg.. especially that scene where he was trying to imitate god knows what. xD And the scene with finding the flashlight.



On a serious note, time to cool down on all this slice of life and get on with the swimming. And more Rin. >.>
