"I could stare at them for hours", I said while watching shirtless boys swim. It was sometime last year I wanted to watch this anime. Started it but didn't get past episode one cause I wasn't feeling it. Fast forward to now,a different year, different time and I'm completely hooked.

Free is a sport anime written by Koji Oji. And adapted by the studio, Kyoto. It revolves around the lives of four high schoolers, Nanisa, Matomoto and Nagisa. Actually the main character of this anime is Nanisan but you don't see him talk or act alot, rather you see other describing him,explaining him and how he feels.

Makoto,Nagisa and Haruka are childhood friends. They've been swimming together for a really long time,gone to swimming tournaments and won medals and trophies. It wasn't just these three though. They had another friend,Rin.
Haruka and Rin were extremely close friends till he started feeling inferior to Haruka. This drew them apart and created a kind of negative/false energy between the four team mates. Matsouka eventually moves out of the country to Australia to become better in swimming and to win against Haru.

It's a good show guys. In a way Nanisan and Matomoto had a resemblance with the couples in the bl anime Daraketai Otoko(amazing anime by the way). Free is a short beautiful anime. I love the way it emphasizes on the concept of being free and not head driven by desires,envy, pressure or outright jealousy. No sugarcoating,Rin was jealous of Haruka. Stopping a friendship cause you've lost to him and some reasons you can't feel better until he's lost to you? What's the whole concept of being friends then? Why the competition?

One thing I avoid when it comes to friendship is anything that'll make us be in a competition or fight for the same thing. I do not wish to be against someone I call my friend so when it usually gets to this,I take a huge step back and pull my border up.

Free is a sport anime about swimming. Man was made for land though,why do people enjoy swimming? I guess it's a different feeling when you're under the water. I can't really swim apart from do a few flaps and drown but it's a soothing feeling when you're under the water. I feel swimming competitions aren't really popular and need more light shone on them(it). It's such an incredible sport,I can't get enough of the bodies.ugh. Very refreshing, funny and exciting 12 episodes. You can binge watch it like I did and spend like three hours to complete it. Amazing to be honest,I have no idea why I couldn't watch it last year. Oh well, it's like that sometimes.

Thanks for reading!
Oh and no one has mentioned it yet but sport animes gives a lot of bl vibes!

"Podría quedarme mirándolos durante horas", dije mientras veía a unos chicos sin camiseta nadar. Fue en algún momento del año pasado cuando quise ver este anime. Empecé a verlo, pero no pasé del primer episodio porque no me apetecía. Avanzamos hasta ahora, un año diferente, un momento diferente y estoy completamente enganchado.

Free es un anime deportivo escrito por Koji Oji y adaptado por el estudio Kyoto. Gira en torno a las vidas de cuatro estudiantes de secundaria, Nanisa, Matomoto y Nagisa. En realidad, el personaje principal de este anime es Nanisan, pero no lo ves hablar ni actuar mucho, en lugar de eso, ves a otros describiéndolo, explicándole cómo se siente.

Makoto, Nagisa y Haruka son amigos de la infancia. Llevan mucho tiempo nadando juntos, han ido a torneos de natación y han ganado medallas y trofeos. Pero no eran solo ellos tres. Tenían otro amigo, Rin.
Haruka y Rin eran amigos muy cercanos hasta que él empezó a sentirse inferior a Haruka. Esto los separó y creó una especie de energía negativa/falsa entre los cuatro compañeros de equipo. Finalmente, Matsouka se muda del país a Australia para mejorar en natación y ganarle a Haru.

Es un buen programa, chicos. En cierto modo, Nanisan y Matomoto tenían un parecido con las parejas del anime bl Daraketai Otoko (anime increíble por cierto). Free es un anime corto y hermoso. Me encanta la forma en que enfatiza el concepto de ser libre y no dejarse llevar por los deseos, la envidia, la presión o los celos directos. Sin edulcorarlo, Rin estaba celoso de Haruka. ¿Terminar una amistad porque has perdido a tu pareja y algunas razones por las que no puedes sentirte mejor hasta que él te pierde? ¿Cuál es el concepto de ser amigos entonces? ¿Por qué la competencia?

Una cosa que evito cuando se trata de amistad es cualquier cosa que nos haga competir o luchar por lo mismo. No quiero estar en contra de alguien a quien llamo mi amigo, así que cuando llega ese momento, doy un gran paso atrás y elevo mis límites.

Free es un anime deportivo sobre natación. Sin embargo, el hombre fue creado para la tierra, ¿por qué a la gente le gusta nadar? Supongo que es una sensación diferente cuando estás bajo el agua. Realmente no puedo nadar, salvo dar unos cuantos aleteos y ahogarme, pero es una sensación relajante cuando estás bajo el agua. Siento que las competencias de natación no son muy populares y necesitan que se les dé más luz (eso). Es un deporte increíble, no me canso de ver los cuerpos. Uf. Doce episodios muy refrescantes, divertidos y emocionantes. Puedes verlo de corrido como yo y pasar como tres horas para terminarlo. Increíble para ser honesto, no tengo idea de por qué no pude verlo el año pasado. Bueno, a veces es así.

¡Gracias por leer!
¡Ah, y nadie lo ha mencionado todavía, pero los animes de deportes dan muchas vibraciones de BL!

Sort:

Harlot!!!😭😂😂

A whore calling a whore whore. Now that doesn't sound right love

Way to fling my dirty laundry out into the world 😭😂😂😂

Wow this anime sounds really good, thanks you just gave me a new anime to watch.

You should definitely try it. You'd love it!😂
Regards! Thanks for stopping by, preciate' it;)

@Tegoshei !!! I'm not the only one that thinks sport anime gives bl vibes in a way, right?
Please let me not be the only one😔

I love Free!!!! And yeah... Don't worry... Many people think so, too... My fudanshi-senpai found out I like BL because I like sports anime which is mostly the case. I think it's because there are a lot of possible pairings in sports anime... I enjoy both the sport and BL pairings, though... 😎🩵✨

For Free!, I'm a huge SouRin (Sousuke x Rin) fan... 💙😎✨

Right! Maybe that's also why I'm attracted to both. I just want them characters in my room😔

Yes!!! But Matomoto and Nanise gives this past couple that broke up a long time but still have feelings for each other kind of vibes!

Like the time Nanise wanted to give him a CPR cause it looked like he drowned and was out of breathe. The tension was deafening!😔

My Fudanshi-senpai is a huge Free! fan... He has a lot of Free! DJs and posters in his room. hahaha

Do you mean Makoto and Haru? hahaha That's true... They're like a married couple who has been together for years... xD

Ahhh~~~ I remember that scene... from the island, right? When they were practicing in the sea... xDDD

I started watching this anime a couple of years ago, but after a couple of chapters I abandoned it due to my busy schedule, it's a pity because it seems to be very good.

Thanks for sharing!

I completely understand. Life can be really hectic sometimes.

I like how simple it is. I mean it's not about the plot but your admiration for the characters, that's what drives the anime. Cause it's a really simple and short plot. Extremely predictable .

Thanks for sharing!

Always! I'm glad you liked my review

Sé que en las competencias de natación requiere también de mucho trabajo físico, como en cualquier otro deporte, y de verdad no se le da la debida atención. Se ve interesante la trama, más que es corta. Saludos


I know that in swimming competitions it also requires a lot of physical work, as in any other sport, and it really is not given due attention. It looks interesting the plot, more that it is short. Regards

Honestamente, no sabía realmente que había que estar en forma para nadar. Pensé: "Bueno, ya sé nadar", y luego simplemente nadé.

se ve buena, el competir y mantener la amistad bueno hay que saber como jeje, buen post!


it looks good, to compete and maintain the friendship well you have to know how hehe, good post!

Deberías probarlo, señora. Estoy segura de que te encantará. Lo vi con mi hermana de siete años y, aunque no podía seguir el ritmo de los subtítulos en la pantalla, le encantó.

Sometimes anime needs its moment to connect with us. I love how it tackles friendship and competition, and the characters are super endearing. And yes, there's something special about the swimming, even though I'm not much of a swimmer myself! Definitely an anime worth watching, glad it hooked you.

Yeah! It also made me realize it's been a really long time I was in a pool! Aha might just go do a few flaps and mini drown this weekend!😉
