SYNOPSIS:
It’s springtime in Japan and the Tadano High School swim team is barely keeping afloat. When a pretty new coach turns up with the nutty idea of creating a top synchronized swimming team of her own, she has a few problems to overcome. First, she’s teaching at an all-boys school. Second, the 5 boys who have committed to the team are all hopelessly bad swimmers, an athletically inept SATO, a skinny boy OHTA, a math geek KANAZAWA, a timid boy SAOTOME and SUZUKI. Third, she suddenly discovers she’s 8 months pregnant and due for maternity leave.
