Kenkou Zenrakei Suiei-bu Umishou EP11 - Could It Be...

It's a week to the Kantou tournament. Maaya gives the team an idea: if they win, Kaname is to do anything the swimmers tell him to do because, after all, "managers have it easy". While initially reluctant, Kaname eventually agrees as it will help with team morale. The team makes it through a weeks' training and arrives at the hotel at Kantou. They discover that the hotel has an open-air bath. The Umishou team is surprised by the appearance of Nanjou and the Shinomiya team who immediately challenge them to a contest: the first team whose members all stand up from the hot spring must shave their "under hairs"...in front of the losing team! The next day is the preliminary swim meet but the female team members of both Umishou and Shinomiya are suffering somewhat from the previous night's competition -- prolonged exposure to the heat of the bath has sapped the team members of their energy and all place poorly. Most affected is Maaya, who is crushed by her seventh-place showing and runs away. However, Shizuoka finds her by accident and gives Maaya a pep talk to bring her around and show that losing is not the end of the world.
