EPISODE CONTEXT

As the twelfth and final episode, 'Otori' caps off the Okinawa arc that began building in the preceding episodes, particularly following Iori's diving license struggles and misunderstandings in Episode 11. It functions as a culmination of the season's core thesis — that diving club life is roughly 10% diving and 90% catastrophic social situations. Rather than chasing a dramatic conclusion, the finale leans into the ensemble dynamic and comedic identity that carried the entire run.
