S2E03 Butterfly of Farewell!/Quotes

Haruka : (when running in the club-versus-club relay race) ''The wind is also alive. Once you dash forward, it will immediately bare its fangs and attack. But there's nothing to fear. Don't resist the wind. Thrust your fingers forward and carve an opening. Then you slide your body through that opening. Moving your arms, your head, your chest...''

Makoto : Haru! Haruka : Makoto! Commentator: ''Oh ho! What a smooth baton pass! Like two bodies in perfect harmony!''

Rei : ''Wind speed, 1,5 meters per second. Nagisa-kun's height, 165 centimeters. Assuming a speed of 23 kilometers per hour and a roughly V-shaped kickboard, the optimal arm angle for him to recieve it with minimal wind resistance is...''

Haruka : ''I only... swim freestyle and relays.''

Goro : It looks like he's sick. Everyone: Huh?! Goro : Lovesick, that is!

Goro : There are two types of men: those strengthened by love, and those weakened by it. Makoto : Were you imitating Miss Ama-chan? Gou : But Rei-kun is definitely the type that would be weakened by love. Nagisa : ''What do we do? This is bad!'' Haruka : Is it? Makoto : Hm, what if he gets so crazy about his gf that he neglects the club? Nagisa : WHAT?!

Rei : (laughs) Me, in love? Gou : So, you're not? <font color=>Rei : ''Certainly! As if I would ever be taken in by something as illogical as love!''

<font color=>Momotarou : I-Is that what they call a homemade cookie?! <font color=>Rin : Want to try one? <font color=>Momotarou : ''Can I?! Yahoo! Yum! One more...'' <font color=>Rin : I said you could try one! <font color=>Momotarou : Stingy!

<font color=>Rei : So, what's the emergency? <font color=>Makoto : ''What? Um, well... what was it again?'' <font color=>Haruka : Don't pass it off on me. <font color=>Gou : ''W-We're, well... going to taste-test a new mackerel recipe!'' <font color=>Nagisa : That's not an emergency at all! <font color=>Haruka : You're the one who called this meeting. <font color=>Makoto : Yeah, but... <font color=>Rei : If there's no emergency, I do have an errand to run, so... <font color=>Makoto : H-Hey, wai-

<font color=>Nagisa : Don't quit the swim club! <font color=>Rei : Huh? <font color=>Nagisa : ''You can't hide it from us. You plan to go back to the track team, don't you? I don't want that!'' <font color=>Rei : Nagisa-kun... <font color=>Makoto : ''He's right, Rei. We're a team. I won't let you just leave like this.'' <font color=>Gou : As the team manager, I can't agree with it, either. <font color=>Haruka : ''Rei, it was because of what you said that both Rin and I were saved. Don't say you're quitting. Weren't you the one who said the four of us are going to swim together at the nationals?'' <font color=>Rei : Haruka-senpai... <font color=>Nagisa : ''He's right! We all promised, didn't we? That the four of us would swim the relay together. You said you'd show us your beautiful butterfly stroke at the nationals.'' <font color=>Rei : ''Wait a second. What are you all talking about? I'm not quitting the swim club.'' <font color=>Nagisa : But you were talking with the captain of the track team. <font color=>Rei : ''You saw us? He did ask me to come back, but that was all that happened. And there's no way I would ever quit the swim club!'' Everyone: Thank goodness... <font color=>Rei : And now that we're resolved the misunderstanding, I have an errand to run, so I'll be going. Everyone: Eh?!

<font color=>Rei : (when asked why he wants to learn swimming other strokes) ''I always thought just swimming one style, like Haruka-senpai, would be enough. The way I look floundering in the water is not beautiful. If it meant having to look that way all the time I thought I'd rather not swim at all! But, despite that, I didn't want to give up!''

<font color=>Rin : (to Rei) I really owe you.

<font color=>Rin : (to Sosuke, about Rei) Even if we're on different teams, he's a friend.
