The anime Dive!! is filled to the brim with topics one could choose to talk about. Of course, there is the most obvious which is the depiction of the Olympic sport discipline of diving. But we also see a teenager rise up against parental disregard and the scheming of the grown-up world. We learn that striving for the same goal breaks friendships but unites rivals, and we receive a lecture about the danger of calories. Last but not least, we witness the impact of a woman’s coaching on boys in a minor sport. As the title of the post plainly suggests, I want us to take a closer look at the workings of the female coach in Dive!! So, let’s dive right into it! (… pun intended)
