Welp, I cried twice reading this. There's a first time for everything, eh?
The wild ride with this manga continues, and seriously, this manga is sucking me straight into its story and making me want to root for these characters! It's SO DARN GOOD, and we're only 3 volumes in!

We're only 12 episodes into this lengthy series, but it's already got me in the FEELS hard with Chris's character and his conviction! He and Sawamura making a battery? His father showing up? The team rallying for him? SO GOOD.

Well, it's here -- everything wraps up this episode! And WHAT A RIDE it is! I'm a little dazed we're already here, if I'm honest! The one saving grace in all this is knowing that I've still got 6 volumes of the manga to read and gather notes on, to see what changes from our anime adaptation!

Ooof, Inoue serves us a dish of straight-up HEARTACHE, as Hisanobu Takahashi deals with the "new reality" of his life as newly paraplegic.
Meanwhile, Nomiya deals with life off the court and out of high school, trying to find a new purpose in life as well...but his new friend Kiyoharu...

So, CHRIS.
I am a SUCKER for a character with a sports injury, and so y'all can imagine how attached I've instantly become to Chris, this stoic character who has actually a lot more going on under the surface. He looks like he'll be a perfect mentor for our overly enthusiastic, hard-t...

I've had several requests to watch this movie, but I've also seen where it was recommended to read the manga to have a better understanding where the movie was coming from...so I decided to do both!
I can't believe it! After nearly 10 months, it's sadly time to replace Free!
I want to narrow down the options for this replacement, so I'm asking your help, Patrons! The Top 5 (unless there's a tie(s)) will be offered in a public poll with Episode 10 of Free!
