The Iwatobi High School Swim Club is participating in a joint training camp with the Samezuka Academy and Soufuukan High School teams. Sousuke is also participating as an alumnus. In the midst of the excitement, Rei and Nagisa notice that something is odd about Romio's swimming. Then Shizuru tells them the story of what happened to Romio in middle school...
He's not as bad a guy as he looks.
إنه ليس سيّئاً كما يبدو
Er sieht wie ein schlimmer Finger aus,
ist es aber nicht.
No es tan malo como parece.
Espero que se lleven bien.
No es tan malo como parece.
Espero que os llevéis bien.
Réconciliez-vous,
il est plus gentil qu’il en a l’air.
Non è cattivo come può sembrare,
Ele não é tão mau quanto parece.
Он не такой плохой,
каким кажется.
