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?
You didn't have to come out here 
just to cheer for us, Nii-chan.
ني-تشان، لا داعي لأن تأتي إلى هنا لمجرد تشجيعنا
Du hättest nicht kommen müssen, 
nur um uns anzufeuern, Nii-chan.
No tenías que venir a animarnos, hermano.
No tenías que venir a animarnos, hermano.
Il n’avait pas besoin
de venir nous encourager…
Poteva anche evitare
 di venire a fare il tifo per noi.
Você não precisava vir aqui só
 para torcer por nós, Nii-chan.
Брат, не стоило тебе приходить,
чтобы поболеть за нас.
