Hinako Note

Hinaconotto has been talked about even now as a work that is unusually erotic for a daily life series, but it was the 7th episode “Mayeru Mizugi” which was the swimsuit episode that determined its reputation.
Overall, the area of the swimsuit is quite small, and Mayu even showed her in a micro bikini even though she only tried it on.
The sexy shot of the landlord is also quite remarkable, and it became the swimsuit episode of this work unique to this work.

Priya is also well known for her exposure.
There was no swimsuit episode in the first and second season, and the viewers who were expecting it were saddened after the broadcast, but the third season was made to seem like a swimsuit episode from the first episode… but it was actually a delusional feint.
After much deliberation, the swimsuit episode was finally realized in the second episode of the third season “Tricolor Birthday”.
As it was the long-awaited swimsuit episode, you can enjoy each character’s swimsuit for almost the whole episode, and the story was quite chaotic, so it was a highly satisfying episode.

The swimsuit episode of this anime is somewhat unique, with a character from Wakaba*Girl appearing as a guest character.
It seems that the guest appearance was realized because both anime are produced by Nexus and the script for this episode was written by Mr. Hanada Juki, who worked on all the scripts for Wakaba Girl.
Of course, since the original writer of Wakaba Girl, Yui Hara-sensei, had been approached beforehand, the topic and collaboration illustrations were posted on her blog after the broadcast ended, much to the delight of the fans of both works!
The author of the series, Kaori Hanzawa, also posted on Twitter, and it was more than just a swimsuit episode, it was a heartwarming collaboration.

Slightly controversial swimsuit episode 1.
Just before “Love Max in the Pool!”, the ED footage at the time was a bit too aggressive for an anime for girls. Maybe that’s why it was partially replaced because of complaints to the BPO.
Since it was a swimsuit episode under such circumstances, it attracted a lot of attention, but it was broadcasted safely.
By the way, not only this episode, but also other pre-para episodes were aired in the 8th episode “Doki-Doki! Summer! Swimsuit! ‘Pools and Cuddles’, Episode 110 ‘Swimming Competition Puri! Igo! and regularly aired swimsuit episodes.
In particular, in episode 110, Leona () was shown in a bikini, even though she was in the pre-package, which in a way was more aggressive than the above ED video.

Slightly controversial swimsuit episode #2.
Episode 7: “There’s nothing more dangerous than an ignorant friend. A wise enemy is much better. The swimsuit episode realized in the first episode, the exposed side was perfectly fine, but the popular heroine Karuizawa (Karui (Zawa) related events are all replaced with Horikita, and fans was watched with mixed feelings.
While it was a swimsuit episode, this is an episode that has been talked about outside of swimsuits.
Amagami SS

Slightly foul swimsuit series part 1.
It is an anime based on a gal-game, and the first season had 4 long episodes for each of the captured heroines, but since one of the heroines, Nanasaki Ai, is a swimmer, all 4 of her episodes (episodes 13 to 16 of the first season) were swimsuit episodes.
Therefore, it is an anime with many swimsuit episodes, which gives a strong impression of swimsuits among all the episodes.
By the way, Nanasaki also appears in a swimsuit in the 2nd season “Amagami SS+ Plus”, but it is not really a swimsuit episode, it is just a lovey-dovey episode.

Slightly foul swimsuit series Part 2.
Since this is an anime about beach volleyball, the main character Haruka pair and everyone else is in swimsuits during the game.
The main character Haruka and the rest of the team are in swimsuits during the game.
If this work was a sexy anime, the catchphrase “all swimsuit sessions” might have been pushed to the fore but in reality, it is a full-fledged beach volleyball anime so no such advertising was done.
However, even if you watch it for the swimsuit, it is a work that will fully meet your expectations.
まとめ
こうしてまとめてみると、水着回は5話、7話、10話が多いですね。
視聴者へのサービス回と言われることも多い水着回ですが、実際には作画カロリーが低めになる（ダイジェスト的な静止画連発も多い）作画班へのサービス回でもあるので、スタッフの疲弊が目立つ中盤以降に配置されているという事情も透けて見えます。
加えてお約束展開にもなりがちなので、意外と「水着回はいらない」というアニメファンも少なくないようです。
でも、あの独特のお祭り感というか、水着回ならではの多幸感とか華やかさは通常回にはないものなので、できれば今後も受け継いでいって欲しい伝統です！
最近はOADで水着回をやるアニメも多いですが、ぜひテレビで流してください！
