I seem to recall reading somewhere that there's not going to be a lot of focus on competition, ala most sports anime. I'm sure we'll see the guys get in the water, but... |
...without swim caps apparently? Haruka has goggles here but, wouldn't the chlorine damage their hair? Unless, you know, magic.
I'm guessing each of main five will receive a short promo so the audience can get used to their voices. So far, I like Haruka's and Mikoto had a short line.
Can't wait for the first episode to air but, I'm worried that Sentai will might get it.

Although Sentai is never my first choice, better them than no one getting it.

This. If it gets picked up at all, which I hope it will, I will definitely be down for purchasing it.

Haruka Nanase is one syllable away from Haruka Nanami... /easily amused

True, true. Even if the BD suffers from problems, I'll probably pre-order it in a heartbeat. 
Maybe we'll get lucky and Free! will be given a special treatment in terms of extra content (like interviews or something more than just Clean Openings/Endings).

How terrible. You might have to notice that gay people exist.  |
Obviously they do, but I'm confused. Are you trying to say there are gay characters in Oofuri? Or are you talking about the fact that people slash some of them. |
The way I read it, zeo is making a jab at Kouro for seeming to declare that the likely presence of shounen-ai elements is inherently a negative. (zeo can correctly me if I'm wrong)

Considering the buzz about this anime I feel like it's a no-brainer that somebody will pick it up. Seems like something Funi should at least consider, but my bet goes to Sentai.

It's gonna be about "youth and friendship" //starts giggling.
I'm sorry, it's always corny to hear this but I'm willing to watch it for the same reason. Ehehe. x3
Haruka is such a babe though... Wow, I want to touch his face _(:3 lol
But anyways, like everyone, I wanna see lots of swimming, okay, KyoAni? > 3< Also, Rei's role interests me because he wasn't in the CM. :O

It's a unisex name in Japanese, actually. Just not very common for dudes.

Then maybe you don't pick up on social cues and body language very well?
