See You Next Water Time.

I spent today with reipan and Yuffie, two of my closest friends. We rewatched the first and third High School Musical films.

Oh, a making-fun-of-ridiculous-films session! I thought, when the idea of a High School Musical rewatch was proposed. This should be fun!

I had evidently forgotten that there is not a shred of irony in my love of High School

Free! has replaced the Olympics in my angry It doesn't work that way!!!! bellowing-related-to-aquatic-sports-sex.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I love watching it because it's ridonkulous but also a rather solidly good anime. But ohhhhhhh, so much bellowing about chlorine and male yeast infections.

edit-- PS: WRITE THE FIC, RIONA.

I don't know a lot about aquatic sports sex (SO I DEFINITELY CAN'T WRITE THE FIC (assuming you meant the Rin/Haru/water fic rather than the one about High School Musical characters murdering each other), DON'T ENCOURAGE ME), but certainly nobody in Free! knows how to wear a swimming cap.

Flidget and I decided that someone needs to write a Free!/Silent Hill crossover, and Haru's Silent Hill is all empty, drained swimming pools in disrepair.

...that could actually be fun.

Haru would end up sitting quietly in one of the empty pools, waiting for it to rain. It never would.

Hee, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I'm very fond of the third one! The second is probably the weakest of the three; we skipped it in this rewatch. The third has a lot of great songs and better production values than its predecessors, as it was made for the cinema rather than television. I'd definitely recommend giving it a watch if you liked the first.

The last episode made Haru/Waterfall CANON.

I WAS SO PLEASED BY THE HARU/WATERFALL BIT. Haru/water is the most wonderful pairing. Sometimes I wonder whether my Haru/water 'shipping is a bit too weirdly sincere, but I've concluded that I cannot love this pairing any more than Haru loves water.

I was like 'COME ON DO WATER' when Nagisa asked him for a romantic story and then THE SHOW DID. Are we sure Haru wanted to give Makoto mouth to mouth or if he wanted to kiss the remains of the ocean?

THIS IS AMAZING. I actually wouldn't be surprised.
