'DIVE!!' Episode 8 Spoilers: Tomoki and Fujitani to Take a Trip to Okitsu's Place Before Going to Beijing?
Tomoki may have felt like he's lost everything, but Lady Luck seems to have one last hand to deal in order to shift his fate. What happens now that he gets to go to Beijing in place of Okitsu on the next episode of the Japanese sports anime series, "DIVE!!"?
Although Okitsu showed excellent performance during the preliminaries, his back injury eventually caused him to lose his chance of going to the training camp in Beijing. But it doesn't at all seem like a total loss because Tomoki gets to go instead. Despite his inhibitions of going, because he didn't feel like he deserved it, Fujitani somehow managed to convince him to change his mind.
Also, now, the pair of divers from the Mizuki Diving Club (MDC), along with Matsuno, will soon be off to Beijing to train and get closer to their ultimate goal of joining the Olympics team. However, the preview for the next episode shows that Tomoki and Fujitani will first be accompanying Okitsu back to his hometown.
