Summary:
The story revolves around Haruka Nanase, a boy who has always loved to be immersed in water, and to swim in it. Before graduating from elementary school, he participated in a swimming tournament along with his fellow swimming club members, Makoto Tachibana, Nagisa Hazuki, and Rin Matsuoka. After achieving victory, each of the boys went their separate ways.
Time passed, and in the middle of their uneventful high school lives Rin appears and challenges Haruka to a match, showing Haruka his overwhelming power. Not wanting it to end like this, Haruka, gathers together Makoto and Nagisa once again and brings a new member named Rei Ryugazaki to create the Iwatobi High School Swimming Club in order to defeat Rin.
Only giving it a try due to the cute anime design and beautiful animation, but it turn out to have a good storyline. Besides, it is hilarious too. so what if it is female fanservice, as long as it got a good story with it, i don't mind at all. The execution of the story is beautiful. it is not an anime where you know everything since the beginning. The revelation of the background story along the episodes make me stick with it to the end. conclusion: enjoyable. recommended to everyone.
