OK, does anyone know anything about this series? I've only seen the first episode, but it seems interesting. Also, is this the title in English, or is it called something else? It's a story about a guy who's scared of water, because of an incident when he was in Elementary school, and now (ironically), he's the captain of the Swim team for his high school. A new transfer student shows up, who he seems to have some sort of connection to him

It's okay. It is somewhat funny and I like the locale/style/characters.
Tons of fanservice, mind you.

I've seen eight episodes. Varies from somewhat funny to extremely funny, but I'm sure it is over the fanservice limit for some folks. Comes close to the limit for me, frankly. It is just good enough I will be finishing it eventually.

If you like this one, then I'm going to recommend "Seto no Hanayome" (Seto's Bride) as even funnier, with a vaguely similar premise, although it gets downright frenetic at times, where Umisho stays on a more even keel. About a young man who accidentally ends up married to a mermaid... but mermaids in this particular scenario are apparently all yakuza. You're going to have to watch it to understand how this works.

Maokun: Ninjas or Pirates? (Vikings are not a valid answer, sorry)

EricTheFred: Vikings are always a valid answer.

OK, does anyone know where to find this series? I've been looking just about everywhere I can think of, and I have not been able to find it anywhere. Preferably somewhere I can download them directly to my computer, since I'm saving my money for a new place atm, but, I am willing to buy them if dling isn't an option.

The majority of subs I've found have been Spanish subs, and I don't read Spanish.
