What Happened In Season 1 of Grand Blue?
Season 1 of the anime ended with Iori and everyone from the Peek-a-Boo club on their little trip to Miyakojima. While the episode started with a lot of diving, Iori was quite bummed out as he had to sit it out. This was a consequence of his failing the diving test.
Chisa, who was concerned for him, went to check on him and actually managed to cheer him up. This is quite a surprise as Chisa normally acts quite rudely to Iori, so her cute side also came off as a shock.
After this, they quickly switched gears after coming back to their lodge, where they started the drinking game “Otori”, in which they poured a lot of drinks into a barrel. During this, each person had to make a speech, and everyone would take a sip out of their cups.
After their little drinking game, the night concluded peacefully after Iori bonded with all his club members. The final episode concluded after everyone returned back to their college the next day.
What Will Happen In Season 2?
In case you’re wondering what will happen in season 2 of Grand Blue, be assured it’s going to be just as good as the first season was. The anime left off at the 21st chapter of the manga, so if anyone can’t wait for the anime’s release, you may start reading from chapter 22 of Grand Blue.
If the second season of Grand Blue follows the order of the manga, then it’ll first feature all the girls of the diving club having a party. This sudden party was an idea that came up when Aina noticed that it’s always the guys over there that had parties, got drunk, and had a lot of fun. If all the men can have fun, why should the girls leave themselves out?
