At a pool visit, it’s learned that Rize doesn’t know how to swim. Syaro suggests she practice using a kickboard, but there’s something Rize is more interested in trying.

リゼ:
()()()るやつ あれがやりたい」
“Being pulled along by the hands. I want to try that.”

Key Points

1あれ refers to the activity Rize has just described
  • Rize points back to being pulled through the water by the hands, so あれ means “that” as an idea rather than a distant object.
2()()()るやつ is a casual label for the activity
  • やつ turns the preceding clause into “the thing where someone pulls your hands”, preparing the reference picked up by あれ.
3あれがやりたい marks the desired activity
  • marks “that” as what Rize wants to do, while the scene supplies swimming practice as the broader context.
