Sugarblaster gave an incredible in-depth study of the plot of Free! following Haru’s Hero journey. In that study, it was mentioned many times that they didn’t want to delve into Rin’s journey, and I understand why. It’s a dark place to be, so I’m gonna give it a shot.
This is a long one, and it’s gonna get emotional, so grab your box of tissues and let’s dive in.
Happy Xianle 🥹💗 May the peaceful times last a long time.
(If you've seen this pic on my twt and feel sth has changed, then you're right! I took it to edit a bit more after seeing err when posting on twt haha.)
