'DIVE!!' Episode 11 Spoilers: Who Will Take the Final Spot in the Olympics Team?

By Emmanuelle Espiritu, Christian Post Contributor Tuesday, September 12, 2017

The competition is up once again for that final spot in the Olympics team on the upcoming final episode of the Japanese sports anime series, "DIVE!!" Who will eventually make the cut?

This week's episode saw Fujitani finally taking a stand regarding the unfair Olympics selection. Even though he was one of the two divers who were chosen to represent the country in the upcoming sporting event, Fujitani did not feel like he deserved it.

However, after getting his spot revoked by the chairman in exchange to a condition that was never met during the Japan-China meet, an Olympic Trial has become necessary to decide who will take the spot he has just given up.

This diver will have to score more than 430 points during the trial, a feat that the chairman believes is impossible for any diver other than Teramoto to achieve.

But this kind of challenge is what the three divers from Mizuki Diving Club (MDC) needs in order get their motivations back once more. Tomoki, Okitsu, and Fujitani will be competing against each other for that final spot in the Olympics team. Each one of them is as determined to achieve their goal, but will they be able to keep a friendly rivalry going once they find themselves up on that board with nothing to lose and everything to gain?

Will Okitsu's unorthodox diving style help him surpass the 430 baseline points given by the chairman? Will Tomoki be able to perfect his four-and-a-half technique and give himself a fighting chance? Or will Fujitani end up regaining the spot that he has previously given up?

It is the final episode, and the competition is about to get intense. Will the anime series wrap up neatly or will it offer a possibility for future installments?

"DIVE!!" airs on Thursdays late night at 12:55 a.m. JST on Fuji TV. Information on other airing schedules and online resources can be found on the series' official site. Episodes are also available for regions outside Japan via Amazon Prime's Anime Strike service.
