Synopsis:
Set between the conclusion of *Free!: Eternal Summer* and the events of *Free!: Dive to the Future*, this anime explores the final moments of a group of close friends as they navigate life's transitions. The series presents four distinct vignettes capturing their experiences during a shared summer.
One follows Haruka and Makoto’s search for an apartment in Tokyo, while another centers on a group outing to a secluded hot spring, fueled by a graduation gift dilemma and the desire for one last shared experience. A separate story details efforts to revitalize their school's swimming club, highlighting the bonds of camaraderie and shared goals. Finally, preparations for a surprise farewell party for Rin unfold, showcasing both the joy of friendship and the bittersweet anticipation of future departures.
The anime offers a gentle reflection on friendship, growth, and the delicate balance between cherishing the present and embracing what lies ahead. It presents an intimate look at how these characters navigate the impending changes to their lives, fostering a sense of nostalgic warmth.
