On the eve of prefecturals, Makoto resolves himself to broach a certain subject with Haruka. As the tournament begins, the Iwatobi Swim Club is extremely enthusiastic about its prospects. But will every member be able to pass the prelims of his individual events?
This past year of hard work was worth it!
!هذه ثمرة الجهد في السنة الماضية
Dieses lange Trainingsjahr 
war all die Schmerzen wert!
¡Valió la pena el dolor 
de un año de entrenamiento!
¡Valió la pena el dolor 
de un año de entrenamiento!
È valsa la pena allenarsi 
così duramente per un anno!
Todo esse ano de treinamentos valeu a pena!
Напряжённая работа
за прошедший год того стоила!
