I now love Haru even more after this episode if that's even possible ;w; How much he cares about Makoto is just adorable. And just how much they all care about each other I just *drowns in own feels*

The almost-CPR scene *sighs in disappointment*

Pretty much everything Haru says is hilarious. With his mackerel obsession and his "love story"

I can't even think right now, all I can say is this episode was great and I can't wait for the next.

Idk, I just. My brain isn't okay. This episode was just perfect.

The only problem was not enough Rin.

Really nice episode :D

Loved how they resolved the problem and spent the time together on the other island hehe :)

Their interactions were fun ^^

The scenery was beautiful with the stars and stuff.

And...Oh Rin, u feel lonely :(...He was even going to check on them in the tents, totally tsundere XD

Love at first sight xD

But, anyway, this was a good episode, I'm glad we got to learn more about Makoto and his fear of the ocean, it must suck having to be reminded of a past like that. Also, I'm glad that CPR didn't happen, that really was way too close. And it seems like the tournament is going on next episode, it's awesome to see the actual plot moving forward :)

wow INTENSE
i don't think I like the CPR scene b/c it seemed to me they used it as fan service and not something that could have potentially saved Makoto's life...

Those whole light house seen was great and we got to see some nice bonding time. It was very amusing seeing Rei hide behind his kickboard (what a dork)

Makoto and Haru had a little eye to eye moment, aww.
They where scared of going into the rest house? Seriously, don't freak out like that, they should be happy for being lucky enough to find a place for the storm.
I lol'ed at the story about Haru's first love.
Nagisa did a great job on lifting the mood. He's usually a little too upbeat but in this situation it's good to have him around.
Small Rei and Makoto are so cute <3
Rin went out to check on them <3
The girls will never know what happened that night.

I want my own Makoto Tachibana packed and delieverd in less than 24 hours.

He's such a nice guy and a good friend. The way Haruka worried about him was adorable too. They're such best friends I'm going to cry. (dat mouth to mouth scene though for a sec there i was like damn kyoani u doing it then they like naw we ain't)

Swim team bonding <3. Haruka's love story was so him. Rei is too cute honestly. I thought he was going to be a really serious character but he's just a big dork. No wonder Nagisa loves messing with him (refrige-"rei"-tor, god that was so hilarious).

Rin was worried about them that's why he ran by the beach at the end. He's probably too stubborn to even admit to himself that's why he did it though. Rin can't you see how much fun you could be having. Rin pls.

Not the best episode for me. And the fact that I'm not so fond of Makoto (and his unhealthy obsession with Haru that is striking even more now) didn't help at all. Hope to see lots of Rin next Wednesday, 'cause I've missed him this week.
Nagisa, I'm sorry for not loving you from the very beginning, you're awesome.

I don't know why but I really enjoyed this. I think it's because it was more slice of life-y. Also Makoto best free

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 ^^

Makoto was afraid of the ocean because of a fisherman he knew as a kid drowned.

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.
