The sound was good but nothing amazing or memorable. Also, for the ladies there is a LOT of eye candy, with perfectly sculpted muscles in every episode you won't be able to resist. Every single drop of water is so flawlessly made, it just makes you more attached to the series. As it is a water-based anime, the animation needed to be perfect for it to be pulled off well. The animation scored ten simply because it is beautiful. It is paced over 12 episodes and it does seem a bit rushed but it is still told very well. I enjoyed it a lot, however I feel like it was missing something. The story, although very good at times, isn't perfect and it isn't the greatest. Along the way they meet an old teammate, and this opens a whole can of worms which is explored within the 12 episodes of this anime. His friends and hisself begin a swim club, and enter in various contests. The story told is of a young boy name Haru, who has an exquisite passion for swimming and water.
This anime is great for various reasons, although by a lot of people it is referred to as 'fanservice' I actually think it has a good plot and even better characters.
