Thanks for the memories!

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

The acting in this movie is really good.

If U haven't seen this. I highly recommend this. (Even though some parts can be silly) I can already tell many fan girls love this. I wish It would of aired longer. But any other case. Don't want to spoil it! But watch it if u can! 10/10

Warning: Spoilers aheadThe show will make you cry, laugh, hate and love. It's one of those shows.Why I LOVED it:This is one of those shows where you will love to hate the villain and vice verso. The show starts with 4 cute little innocent kids before they graduate elementary school. They race together in a swimming tournament, before each taking there own path. However, the story gets dipper and dipper as we continue. Over time we learn that Rin changed the most. The cute friendly kid turned into a competitive, obsessed and lonely adult. Haruka seems to stay the same, except we learn that he really missed the club, the competitions and the teamwork. He starts showing more emotion, and we learn that he doesn't care about winning or losing, but the races with Rin, seem to have more on his mind that he is sharing.The funny and cheerfuller characters seem to be Gou/Kou, Nagisa, Rai and Makoto. Kou seems to be the funniest one to the viewers, sense she is always helping the club *and herself* with her obsession for hot guys and their muscles. Nagisa is always obsessing over "Haru-chan" and his swimming. Rai is an athletic which uses physics and math to achieve beauty. He tries doing the same with swimming but it doesn't work to well most of the time. Makoto seems to be the one who can have a great time but can also be serious. He has a story of his own to tell, which Haruka, Rin and himself were involved in.The music was pretty good. I honestly hated one thing about this anime. The shortness of it. I need more. I am happy that season 2 is coming and I hope it will be longer then the first.The Plot:Nagisa, Haruka, Makato and Rin are cute innocent kids that race in a swimming tournament before elementary school graduation. They win and cheer and then they part their ways. The next year Haruka meets Rin, who has changed sense his move to Australia. Rin challenges Haruka to a race and he loses, he decides to quit swimming. Now, three years later Haruka, Makoto and Nagisa are going to high school together. After going into the old part of the school, they encounter Rin, when he challenges Haruka once again. However, they don't race because the old pool doesn't have any water. Rin goes away.The three of them start a new swimming club, which also included the school secretary, Rin's sister Gou and the new recruit Rai. They decide to swim at the local tournament and Rin happens to be there. Rin comes in first in the 100m free race and beats Haruka. Haruka doesn't take this too well, not letting us know why. They do a relay and they move onto the national tournament.They have their own 'summer camp', where they survive dangerous waves, shared stories and get some good memories. Gou also gets closer to her brother on this trip. At the national tournament they have a fight , an emotional exchange and a bit of teamwork.
