4:32 that little tap tap on the lap absolutely killed me 😂😂😭😭😭 this duo's dynamic is just too special to miss. I really appreciate him not being left out despite being the only one who doesnt do swimming as a main sport. Thats true friendship to me.
Notice how at the end they all left one by one with their boyfriends...Rei and nagisa....ikuya and hiyori...asahi and kisumi leaving makoharu together?
Yes! :) I interpreted that part this way: from elementary school to high school, Haru and Makoto had different friends, but they were the constants in each other's lives. They were never separated all those years. 💖
@ANDREA E AMEGASHIE yeahhh honestly, i mean i do see rinharu's chemistry but i think the australia trip made it clear that although rinharu are good friends, they don't understand each other as much as makoharu does!! i'm a sucker for the best friends since childhood trope and i think makoharu's bond is on a different level :) rinharu are great as rivals tho hehe
Esta ship me gusta mucho desde el inicio, pero casi todo el fandom prefería Asahi x Ikuya; eso hasta que llegó la tercera temporada de Free! y hubo más material y fanarts AsaKisu. Son una ship muy linda y divertida.
Leí por ahí que Asahi x Ikuya recuerda un poco a la dinámica de Rin y Haru, Rin como Asahi e Ikuya como Haru. En lo personal, me gusta más Asahi x Kisumi, siempre me pareció adorable y divertida su dinámica, y que fueran de los pocos que siguieran estando en contacto desde la secundaria (sacando a Makoto y Haru) me pareció más lindo todavía. 😄💖
Its Kisu x Asa for me. Ive always thought asahi is the uke 😂 anyway i just finished watching this series and their i love how their friendship has developed throughout the years🥰
for some reason.. i feel each separated group has parallel counterparts i mean, some guys look like some of the others in face and in personality : * haruka and ikuya * makoto and hiyori * nagisa and kisumi * rin and asahi * rei and ... sosuke (maybe ?) xd
I think Rei and Asahi are more paralleled. They're both energetic, confident, and pretty loud & proud, lol. They both had swimming blocks that they had to work through, and Asahi is paired up with Kisumi - as Rei is paired up with Nagisa. They're obviously different, but I think they fit with your counterpart idea! They're also attached from when they were in ms & Rei helped him with his swimming. Perhaps Rin's counterpart is Natsuya? They both had close friends (Sousuke / Nao) who were injured and are waiting for them to return to swimming.
based on the ED of season 3 I think that the Iwatobi boys and the Ikuya Protection Squad (aka Haru's middle school teammates) parallel this way: Haru - Ikuya Makoto - Hiyori (both are of the caring malewife archetype + they both do backstroke) Rei - Asahi (they met in middle school and almost ran into each other several times in high school) Natsuya - Rin (both have sharks as mascot animals) Nao - Nagisa (process of elimination) Sadly it seems Kisumi isn't paired up with anyone from the Iwatobi squad, but since he was close friends with Sousuke in elementary school, he was shown alongside the Samezuka team in the ED
Free! It has 3 seasons, 1 movie (Free! Starting Days) and they will make another movie soon. (Oh yeah, I almost forgot that you should watch "Free! Take your marks!" Before watching season 3, sry for the late information..)
