Free! Iwatobi RANT
Saturday, September 28, 2013 @ 12:23 AM
Everyone said Rei was the hero. Yes Rei was indeed the Hero. However, did Rei have a choice? No! Because if Rei didn't sacrifice himself, Haruka would be sitting there sobbing his heart out the whole day. And Makoto and Nagisa would be sulking the whole day too thinking about Rin, Rin and RIN. He probably wouldn't want to deal with that bullshit. They wouldn't be able to swim the relay properly anyway, if all they're thinking about is Rin. I wouldn't bother to swim a relay with a bunch of people that are thinking about other stuff, and I'm the only one seriously thinking about the team.
I really pity Rei. 1st Nagisa begged and pestered him to join the swimming club and he even embarrased himself in front of another school. (During the Samezuka practice.) He didn't even freaking know how to swim. Later when he saw how beautiful swimming could be, he decided to join. (At that time, he had nothing to lose anyway.) The other 3 of them were good swimmers, they taught him how to swim, and he even almost drowned trying to catch up with them (That was a little stupid on his part, but yeah it showed how much he wanted to improve to become like the other 3.) As he gradually improved, he started to feel like a team with the rest and hoped to improve even more so as to not drag them down during the medley relay.
Then later the old friend Rin shows up during the prefecturals and screwed everything up. He won Haruka and became freaking complacent and said that he will never swim with Haruka again causing Haruka to sink into this little emotional piece of shit.
After that Haruka GOT OVER Rin and became Free for real, and decided to improve his swimming for the current Iwatobi team. But WHAT NOW? Rin saw them swimming relay and got all jelly.
Then Rin joined the Samezuka relay just because he wanted to relieve his old times?? And that binded Haruka AGAIN.
Did I even mention how un-sportsman like Rin and Haruka were? When I was watching the last episode I was like what the fuck are you serious. They're 17 years old, not 14 year old kids. Rin wanted to swim with the Iwatobi guys again and hence REQUESTED the captain to put him in the medley relay. And I think Captain Mikoshiba agreed because he knew Rin had what it takes - he swims fast. However, all he does is keep sulking about the past and how he wanted to swim with Haruka again and really disrespected his other relay mates. Have you seen how PISSED they were? No matter how much of a Rin fan you are you gotta see how asshole-y he acted in the team. None of them liked him. Did they sign up for that? NO. They probably were a good team with the previous butterfly dude and then the captain transferred him out just to put Rin in. And Rin just kept cursing and swearing during every practice and acted as if he was the most unhappy guy in the world even tho HE CHOSE THIS HIMSELF.
Rin didn't even reflect on that till the end even tho Mikoshiba told him the reason straight out and flat. He kept assuming that he got kicked out of the relay team because he sucked at swimming. As I said, Captain Mikoshiba acknowledged his skills and that's why he was allowed to join the relay team. But he disappointed the captain and the team mates with his lack of sportsmanship and thus he was kicked out. Then later he acted like a stupid brat and screwed his 100m free big time. Ok I understand u are fucking upset but since Samezuka is supposed to be a elite swimming school, you just freaking embarrased your whole school. (Well if he thought of that he wouldn't be kicked out of the relay in the first place.) The only reason why Captain Speedo forgave you is because if he didn't, THE RIN FANGIRLS WILL RAGE FOR NO REASON AGAIN like how they lashed out on him when he kicked Rin out of the relay, even tho captain made a totally correct and rational decision for the whole team. (I'm sure captain didn't decide that all of a sudden, he observed Rin for a very long time.)
Oh and how he treats Nitori like shit? If I'm Nitori I would have moved the hell out of that room and get away from that bastard already. Now I don't want to sound like a Rin hater, and I'm not a Rin hater, but can you see how shitty he treats Nitori? People hate Nitori and say he's irritating and that he should not butt into Rin's business. But they see each other ALMOST ALL THE TIME except during classes. Of course Nitori would be concerned. Yes, irritating at times, but it DOES make sense. If Nitori was a cold and uncaring bastard then fans would be irritated again. Lol. But anyways, even tho I agree that sometimes Nitori should just shut up and leave that shark dude alone, I think Nitori deserves an award also. He knows Rin will lash out at him and yet he still keeps dishing out encouraging comments to Rin. If I were Nitori I would have left him to kill himself already (LOL, I'm not very kind eh).
Ok and Haruka. Beginning I kind of like Haruka, and almost till the end. But the last episode was a total flop for me in terms of Haruka. If Rei didn't sacrifise himself. If they couldn't find Rin. Is he gonna ditch the whole team and abandon ship? Despite training for months? Despite his school mates taking their time off to travel all the way to the competition site to support them? What sportsmanship is that? I only see him acting as a bratty kid that will sulk at some corner of his room if not given what he wanted. He trained with Rei. And he trained with the others. He can't do this to his team mates and flush their months of practice and anticipation down the drain. The only reason why people still support Haruka because he's a hot 2D bishounen. If people like him existed in real life they would be outcasted already. Yet Makoto and Nagisa and even Rei kept spoonfeeding and supporting him till the end - that's why he could act this way because they didn't want him to be unhappy. As captain, Makoto didn't really make a responsible desision this time but there was nothing he or Nagisa could do anyway since Haru was technically the leader of the clique (Lol).
Just because they wanted to be Free doesn't mean they could disrespect the organisers of the competiton, and everyone else. Did you see the look on Samezuka's captain? How would you like if your team mate swam like shit for your school and yet gave his best for other schools? If it were you I bet wouldn't be able to just laugh it off. I understand this is just fictional and anime but... I think the writers have taken it too far. (Well, not as if other anime are better [laughs] :P) But even tho I've said this much... I enjoyed the anime on the whole, the awesome water and swimming animation and of course, good looking 2D guys.
So, it is almost confirmed there is a 2nd season (See you next summer) But I wonder what they can write about this. New characters? Should be. Better plot? Probably not. But hopefully. I'm not eagerly dying for the next season to come, but I do look foward to see how they can stretch these characters. However if captain Mikoshiba already graduated next season I will be kind of sad. Hahahahaha..
