Free! - 2


First of all, I have to apologize about how late this is. A couple real life things came up, and then I got addicted to Dark Souls (currently at 28 hours, SL52 and up against Ornstein and Smough). Anyway, This week's episode of Free!  was not a disappointment, and it gives me high hopes for the series. If they can keep up the pacing then it definitely will be one of the better things this season.


more dark and brooding character development
This episode reveals a bit more about why Sharktooth-san has become so angsty and cold. He seems to have a bit of inferiority complex going on, but there also seems to be something else. He was holding a picture of a bunch of characters we haven't seen yet, so we'll have to wait and see what that's for.
Quite the contrast...
Meanwhile in the sunny world of Haruka, our main three have decided to form a swimming club at school. Because of this, a fair amount of the episode was spent refurbishing the school swimming pool. We also learn a bit about why Haruka stopped swimming. Oh and speaking of swimming...
Finally some action! The swimming scene was pretty awesome, and it does go to show that this is actually a show about swimming, and not just manservice (which is still there, but not as prevalent). So far the show has kept good pacing with an interesting enough story, and it would have to do something pretty awful for me to lose interest.
