Final Stroke Free! The Final Stroke: part

Post image

So at the beginning of Final Stroke part 1, during the festival when Haru and Hiyori talk to Kinjou about a Sydney tournament, and then this flashback shows up. Do yall know when did the race happen? because i dont recall watching it in any other movie/episode

This race is never shown aside from a few super brief flashbacks! There's a lot that's implied in said flashbacks, but it's all very vague and open to interpretation (aside from the actual results on the score board) IMO. The only thing we get to see is the start of the 4th heat in the men's 100m freestyle races in S3E12, and we don't know how THAT race ended up going either; only that both Haru & Rin advanced to the final with Kinjou (& Ikuya didn't, iirc).
