3rd one and there's still more... damn slow connection and it keeps getting dropped too... I don't know how i ever survived on dial up before.


page 1

b1) Oh, this is good.
b2) We're finally starting to look like a swim team.
b3) But Michiru...
b4) He's got the basics down and all, but...
below panel) I'm putting my all into swimming today too!

page 2

b1) Dammit!
b2) I dont' want to lose to Aida-san who joined after I did!
b3) Like hell I'll lose!! (x2)
b4) Like hell I'll...
b5) puha

page 3

b1-4) haa
b5) I think he's rushing things too much.
b6) After Aida-san got here, he's been trying a little too hard.
b7) I bet he's a little upset that the person on the course next to him is swimming faster than he is.
b8) Although in his case, his biggest problem is his lack of athletisicm.
b9) Aren't you going to instruct him?
b10) Hmmmm
b11) I don't think he trusts me. He only sighs to answer me.
b12) That's why I'm here talking to you...
b13) what is it?

page 4

b1) Would you teach him how to do it? // The 2beat crawl.
b2) huh?
b3) I think he responds better to what you tell him.
b4) Y-you really think so?

page 5

panel) Time is the one thing that waits for no one.
title) Try swimming slowly.

page 6

b1) Sigh...
2) I couldn't do 25m today either...
b3) Will I be like this tomorrow and the day after too...
b4) Kawazu-kun!!

page 7

b1) Haruka-chan, // did you need something?
b2) Do you have some free time today?
b3) Yeah, I have nothing to do later.
b4) Really?
b5) Good, then lets go practice a litte more!!
b6) Huh? more?

page 8

b1) You know,
b2) Haruka-chan...
b3) What is it?
box) Why are you so kind to me?
b4) Its nothing, forget it...
b5) It's gotten a little dark, // but I'm going to teach you the 2beat crawl.
b6) O... // Okay, I'll do what you say.

page 9

b1) The 2beat is the crawl that's used for swimming long distances at a relaxed pace.
b2) Its used to make sure your form and kick form are correct.
b3) huh? But if you say relaxed pace, that means to go slowy right?
b4) That's right.
b5) Is there some reason for which you absolutely need to swim fast?
b6) There really isn't...
b7) What you need most right now isn't to swim fast, but to do the 25m that are right in front of you.
b8) You need to build that confidence that you can swim distances without panicking.

page 10

b1) I guess showing you would be the best thing right now.
b2) Follow me and do what I do.
b3) Y-yeah.
panel1) Each part of the form is exaggerated.
panel2) Oh. You're supposed to swim while overdoing the form like that.

page 11

panel1) Okay.
panel2) Kick the water so my legs don't sink.
panel3) Grab a big gulp of water,
panel4) and breath.
panel5) It's true... I am swimming easily now.

page 12

panel1) Haruka-chan's form is a thing of beaty.
panel2) I almost lost myself staring at her.
panel3) huh? // That mark..
panel4) No way! // Have I!?
b1) puha!
panel5) I actually swam 25m!!

page 13

b1) See? There's no reason to rush.
b2) Take your time and enjoy yourself.
b3) Yeah.

page 14

b1) Haruka-chan...
b2) Yeah?
b3) Will you teach me a lot of other things too?
b4) Of course!! I'll teach you everything I know!
b5) huh!?
b6) I want you to be able to swim better than you do now.
b7) And I want to swim with you.
b8) I wonder if I can really do it...

page 15

b1) You can do it!
b2) Let's make a promise!!
b3) Promise!?
b4) Give me your pinky.
b5) Like this?

page 16,7

b1) Whatever happens, you're never to give up.
b2) I wont give up until you're able to swim either.

page 18

b1) I haven't done a pinky swear since elementary school.
panel) This is the first // promise between the two of us.
b2) Y-yeah...
b3) me either.

page 19

box1) On our way home from school,
box2) I walked a little bit behind Haruka-chan and stared at her still wet hair.
box3) We didn't talk much, but I still think my feelings got across.
box4) But... is this feeling love? Or friendship?
box5) Or is it the comradery of being on the same team?

page 20

box) I still don't know the answer to that question.
