Free! Episode 003 Discussion
 
Best episode thus far. It's extremely hilarious and Rei is challenging Makoto as my bias. He's got the glasses, he's got the blush, and he's got the shy. He is slightly a little too tsun-tsun for my tastes, but he's a great character.

There was so much to enjoy here though. From Rei not being able to swim, to Nagisa's derp, to Haru's dread of swimming, etc. The jokes keep going which is what makes it so enjoyable.

On a fan-service level, can we just have more speedo, all the time? Just sayin' #geee

From the next ep preview it seems like Rei will be in speedo all the time.

Makoto was super motherly in this episode, I lold. Funniest episode yet. Best part about Rei not swimming was the instant replay.

#facepalm If anything, the series is hilarious regardless of fanservice. So if you want to watch something new I'd recommend it. Pretty sure Elk would, too.

Of course he can't swim, he's only a calculating athlete xD

I had my apprehensions when I decided to take a look at this series. Not so much because of the men as much as it being a sports anime...not a fan at all.

But after seeing several people give it praise beyond the fan-service in it, I decided to take a look and deal with the swimming aspect.

At first I was thrown off by the gender bending names, which even the characters make fun of themselves. The particular names they use for the guys felt like a parody.

Was surprised to find myself laughing quite a bit, especially in this episode.

Ama-chan senpai cracked me up with her reactions to the boys devising ways to have her be used to get more members in the club.

Poor Gou, no Kou, Gou, no Kou! I like her too, only because of how pathetically obvious she is with her man-love

I admit it that Free is entertaining. There's nothing about it that seems like anything special. But it has been funny at times and hasn't been the typical sports anime that I thought it would be, so far.

Now that the club is established, I'm half expecting it to become more sports anime with fan service. Hopefully I'm wrong, as I'll probably drop it to the bottom of my queue if that happens lol
