Cliffhangers will ruin my life. Reeeei!

Slightly curious what happened to Makoto... a death?

Also Makoto best captain. Glad that they didn't choose Haru, lol.

That depends on who it is between.
Gou: Who here knows CPR?

Okay then I shall-
Nagisa:* Pushes Gou aside* I SHALL DO IT!!

I can imagine something like that or close to it happening .

Who the fuck goes swimming in the ocean at night?!? -_-

And Makoto was stupid for not alerting the other swimmers. You NEVER try to save someone who is drowning alone. More than likely you'll both end up dead.

I never thought a beach episode could be so entertaining!
And dat cliffhanger indeed! But why would Makoto, the one that is scared of the ocean is the one that goes to save Rei!

cant wait for the next ep. but damn why the hell would you swim at night. in australia there are predators eg. sharks that hunt during the night. Though i must say if i heard correctly 1km between the islands 4km such a small route was expecting something bigger. 1km is 15min at a comfortable pace.

Agreed, Mako going after Rei by himself was very stupid, but he wasn't thinking. Mako isn't afraid of the ocean itself, but of losing someone to it, again. So when he thought Rei was gonna drown, he jumped right it. Very good episode.

All is fun and games until someone drowns...

And suddenly in the a near future, BAM! Gen Urobuchi is revealed to be the writer of Free...

And the boys dies a tragic death, one by one. Starting with Rei, then Makoto, then Nagisa, then Gou, then Rin. And then Haru commits suicide.

Free best troll anime of all time.

Rei going swimming at night was stupid but he did it because he wanted to get better so I can let him off :') I doubt anything bad will happen but I'm looking forward to finding out what Makoto's problem with the ocean is.

Arghhhh...!!! Cliffhanger.

This episode was reaaaally good. Didn't expect what happened in the end (Rei, what the h* were you thinking? You can barely swim in a pool and now you're practicing in the ocean at night and during a storm).

I can't wait for episode 6!

I'm confused- what exactly happened to Makoto that made the ocean so terrifying for him? But this was a very good episode. I seriously doubt anyone is going to die. This is too much of a feel good anime.


I think it was his twin sister. It seems like there's a young girl holding his hand in the preview, and someone standing behind him when the funeral procession goes past. It'd be interesting because Mako's the big brother of his family, but he might have had a twin at some point. His siblings seem like fraternal twins as well.


I thought Makoto was standing behind Haruka during the procession. Still, the twin sister theory is interesting. It would be a good plot twist :)

Swimming alone in the ocean when the only way you can swim is via floatation device or butterfly just spells bad news.

Haha so they manage to go to a deserted island training camp after all huh ...? Of course, COINCIDENTALLY, Rin's there as well :P TBH I loved the interaction between him and his sister ... aww, of course he does care after all :') (Also his shark teeth ... lol wtf. Every time XD)
Looks like Makoto lost someone who probably drowned in the ocean? Maybe a close friend or family member ... I mean seemed like he was holding onto Haruka as a funeral (?) passed by ...

Omg Rei ... WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?! T_T Swimming in the ocean BY YOURSELF when you need a kickboard to stay afloat?! That's just so dumb of you ... so much for being the logical one >_< Since he's sharing a tent with Makoto (speaking of which the argument about who was gonna sleep where ... oh god XD) of course he wakes up ... uh oh! What a cliffhanger D: MAKOTO GOES TO SAVE THE DAY?!
Also we see Gou in a swimsuit too! :O Not for very long but ... it was still there ;P

4/5

Episode less exhilarating than usual, the plot tells us about a typical summer day in the swimming club, everything normal, we would say almost trivial. But it is not so, while the narrative leads us to believe this until the end, then we trim a cliffhanger just before closing the discussion. I would not say that it is a of the most beautiful episodes, but did not even bud, I say that in the end proved sufficient. Ama Sensei MC with its maximum relative to B.

Liking how tsun Rin is with his imouto: totally feels like a genuine and believable bro-sis relationship, which is a nice break from all the usual incest vibes.

So this show can pull cliffhangers too? Damn, Kyo Ani! I'm impressed.

Rin is nice to Gou for what appears to be the first time, something happened in Makoto's past with the sea and Rei gets lost at sea, along with Makoto who goes to save him.

Drama! Still enjoying this a lot, I can presume that Rei won't die though..

I swear it though... Makoto is such a nice guy that when hes sad I just feel like crying ;___; you didnt have to force yourself to go swimming out there babe ; ~ ;

ANYWAY..
As much as I enjoy the fate and cute moments where Gou bumps into the Samezuka Captain, I ENJOY AND LOVEEEEEE the moments she bumps into Rin 100x more T//T

Brother and sister moments are just the cutest Q . Q anyone feel me!? T //// T

and damnit.. I dont want to see all this pain next ep T A T but I'll try ; _ ;

It's really obvious that Ama-chan-sensei used to be a swimsuit model, but none of the kids seemed to have figured it out by now.

Kou really admires her older brother, but he seems really indifferent of her. I kind of feel bad for Kou.

Very recless from Rei to go swim all by himself. And on top of that, at night.
Yes I understand that he wants to be as good as the others, but since he can't swim well,
he shouldn't put himself into danger.
Mako will face his fear by saving Rei. <3

I love Mako. He has such a gentle eyes.
