【Free!】最初で最後の、永遠の夏。

I'll be your light, your match, your fire that never fades.

いよいよES最終話です・・・！去年の夏から、今年の夏まで、いろいろFree!を撮影したり（大好きなまこはるも、最高のチームを組んでグループ撮影も、七瀬遙のソロも）、Free!をコスしていろいろなイベントに参加したり、いろいろな人と出会えたり・・・　本当、Free!のおかげで、またはFree!を一緒にハマってきた仲間達のおかげで、この一年がこんなにも楽しくなったのであります。出会えた奇跡にありがとう。ありがとう。ありがとう…。

It's the final episode of Free! Eternal Summer. Yet, it is not the end. In fact, there is no end.

Since last summer till today, a year has fleeted pass. Many photoshoots were done - my forever bias Makoharu, Iwatobi team x Matsuoka Kyoudai group shoot, Nanase Haruka solo shoot.. - and many a times have I cosplayed Free! (mostly Haru, once Nagisa) to various events, met many people both in and out of the Free!dom, made new local and international friends... Indeed, if it was not for Free!, if it was not for the lovely buddies around me who let their minds lose and be in this insanity with me, this year would not have turned out to be how it is. I am truly grateful. Thank you. Thank you all for this miracle.

So, why is there no end? Because it is Eternal Summer, one may say. Indeed, there is, no doubt, no end in Eternity. But there is also, more importantly, and without doubt,

No end in Friendship.

Cheers to many more years - or rather till eternity - of friendship <3
