About Kenkou Zenrakei Suieibu Umishou

Kenkou Zenrakei Suieibu Umishou (ケンコー全裸系水泳部 ウミショー) arrives as a comedy anime by Artland (2007), and the premise is easy to summarize. At its core: Kaname Okiura, a learner of Prefectoral Umineko Shougyou High ("Umishou" for short), joined the school's swimming club in order to learn how to swim, but the club is filled with weirdos, let alone who can teach him swimming. Then, a sunny, happy-go-lucky girl named Amuro Ninagawa who transferred from Okinawa joined the club.

Further in, her extraordinary underwater speed and unorthodox swimming style (plus her personal habit of nude swimming—a powerful magnet to teenage boys) surprised every club member, especially Okiura.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Toshiyuki Toyonaga as Kaname Okiura and Hitomi Nabatame as Momoko Orizuka. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 13 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

On the casting side, Toshiyuki Toyonaga voicing Kaname Okiura gives the lead role a recognizable voice. It aired in 2007, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
