Strip down, and dive in, /reporters, because Opalsong and RevolutionaryJo are here to talk to you about Free! Iwatobi Swim Club, the show that started out as simply the “swimming anime” and went on to become way better than it ever had a right to be. We’ll talk about the show’s reception in fandom, swimming accuracy, and uncanny knowledge of its audience, as well as aggressive stripping, Haru’s canonical love affair with water, and how Nagisa always gets what he wants. [THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FAIRLY LARGE SPOILERS]
