| Wow, wow.. I'd have to say this is probably one of the best episodes in the series so far. Not a happy episode, but definitely well done and very interesting to see where everything went. Reira (Layla...that's interesting) actually liking Takumi...and then going to Yasu. Shin loves Layla too, sorta saw that one coming though (I kinda thought it was pity or something else though). Hachiko is seriously screwed up in the head right now. She's doing pretty much everything wrong. Takumi is an asshole as usual, he practically forces himself on Nana. Ahhhh, crazy good episode. |
| I finally got the time to watch this. What an EXCELLENT episode. They symbolic imagery of the strawberry glasses to the Nanas was so excellently done. This episode was so emotional. I agree, Xinil. Hachiko is really screwed up right now. I want to feel sorry for her, I really do, and I guess a part of me does. And Takumi... grrrr... what an asshole (I reckon if Xinil can say that on his own site, then I can say it, too =P). My god, I wish they'd release the episodes a little faster. I'm getting tired of having to wait 2 to 3 weeks for an episode. But every time one is released, the wait is sooo worth it. I'm looking forward to seeing how this whole mess unravels.... |
| lol, if you can't wait, read the manga =P Nana is another dialogue heavy manga (possibly even moreso then Death Note) so its easy to follow.....also, I would have someone to talk to about it then =P |

| During the time you usually watch anime.... |

running_lemon said: During the time you usually watch anime.... **gasp** Not watch anime??? O.o Blasphemy!!! LOL |
| I like this episode it has lots of layers. I want to slap Takumi upside his head more after I watched this epsiode. I can understand that Hachi is deeply confuse right now, but I still don't like her decision... And poor Nobu, I guess it's like they said "Good guys finish last." That's alright though I'll take Nobu if Hachi dumps him. XD~ More and more I find myself liking Nobu more than Ren, may be because in the recent episodes Ren doesn't appear that often. |
| hachi is starting to act like that damn takayuki finding some way to do all the wrongs things -_- anyway, great episode |
| Ahh, Takayuki isn't even close to being as stupid as Hachi right now! |
| Reira likes Takumi, Shin likes Reira. Reira runs to Yasu. Yasu likes Nana? Nana's with Ren. Hachi is out of her mind letting Takumi do that to her with Nana next door! and poor Nobu... i swear if you drew the characters from NANA in like a love mind-map thingy you'd get one really screwed up web. definitely the most emotional episode so far. but it'll unravel even more later on i bet... ...when are the nana's going to finally talk to each other again ? =[ |

I was actually doing this in my mind just now, it ended pretty fucked up. The anime is getting dramatical by every episode, and worst of all, I can't wait to see how things will end or at least go further. Xinil said: Ahh, Takayuki isn't even close to being as stupid as Hachi right now! Yep, yep. I always thought Takayuki did some stupid things, but Hachi is just making herself doomed. When she was crying constantly, I felt a bit sorry for her, but as soon as Takumi started to tell Nana all the decisions they (probably just Takumi) made, I wanted to slap her face to bring her back into reality... |
| Takumi is a bastard. As if that isn't anything new. I honestly can't see Hachi's logic. She's being an idiot, she's sacrificing EVERYTHING. >.< Regardless of the above stuff I've been saying for the past 5 or so episodes, really good episode! Really depressing, and even more hints at a sad ending (I'm really wishing I'd waited until the series was finished before starting this series. I'm dying to know how it ends...) But really good nonetheless. I hope Nana and Hachi can still be friends in the end, and that Hachi comes to her senses and stops being an idiot. At the rate it's going now, and from the spoilers I've gotten, that doesn't seem to be what the mangaka has in store for us and their characters, which depresses me. But, there seems to be a lot of plot twists, so hopefully it'll get there somehow. Or at least something along those lines... AT LEAST have Hachi come to her senses, please...I can't take her stupidity. |
| I hope Hachi see's sense soon. |
 |
| ok.. seriously.. now.. at this point.. i dont care what happens to hachi.. i really dont... its just that... what she does affects all the others around her... that's why i'm so frustrated by her decisions... i wouldn't mind if she decides to ruin her life... but HOW ABOUT NANA!??!? HOW ABOUT NOBU!!!! i wish she'd just tell them!! they'll work something out.. UGH!! the decisions she's making are just stupid.... hmmm... and about reira and shin.. it seems shin is starting to like reira.. but when reira was in real trouble... she looks for yasu and not shin... |
| It kinda pained me to see Hachi so unable to talk. |
| i promised myself some while ago that i'll never drop an anime, no matter how bad or pointless it gets. but NANA sure brings me on the edge of breaking that promise.... 13 freaking more episodes, i have to bear it... |

 |
| It's amazing how ugly and intense this show has become. And I'm lovin every second of it. Oh the drama! |
     |
| For Shin. :( |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Is it bad that I can relate to nearly every character in this love-web at the moment, and understand why they're acting like they are? Even why Nana chose Takumi? That I'd chose Takumi over Nobu in this situation? Great episode, as usual. |
| Oh, bloody hell... Hachi's face at the table hurt me. Good symbolism @ the strawberry glasses. |
 |
| This is getting too painful... I want to strangle Takumi. I almost punched my monitor. Poor Nanas. I'm not sure how much I can make myself watch anymore. |
| I wonder if Nana has some memory loss. Everything is so painful.It terribly freaked me out when Hachiko didn't talk to Nana... and these glasses... What will be the end, which will be more affected? |
| It was so sad :< I almost cried for Nana :< (not Hachi but Nana) She was so confused after breaking glass T___T I really want to have friend like that :< Nana wehere are people like you? :< |
| Takumi is indeed acting like a child whose favorite toy got taken away-so possessive and controlling, and uncaring of the pain he causes others. If he loved Nana, he would not stand to hear her described as a woman who is after his money. argh! I am almost afraid to watch more. |
| Hachi not speaking at the table made me feel very sad. and that sex scene ( is it appropriate to call that rape? ) was disturbing. shit is going from bad to worse SOMEONE STOP THE MADNESSSS |
 |
| This is what I wanted Nana to do to Hachiko in this episode. |

That's EXACTLY what was going through my mind when Reira asked Shin for Yasu's number, and Yasu ran to her... It seems the only person that's actually safe and not included in this crazy love... web (definitely too complicated to just be a love triangle, or square, or even pentagon, for that matter) is that one other dude in TrapNest. XD I... have to say, I was shocked at Takumi's actions. Hachi just seemed scared of him, to me. And Nana commenting that she's not "Takumi's pet" made me think that hey, yeah, that's exactly what she's acting like: as though she were Takumi's pet dog, i.e. something he owns, not someone he views as an equal or partner. Nobu's been pretty strong through all of this. At least on the surface? ._.'' Feel bad for a lot of characters... Takumi not included, however. |
| OMG I can't believe this. It's like she's into Takumi again!??! I think a lot of women would have acted the same way though, there's no doubt. And Nana's getting jealous over Hachi is all too realistic bitching. |

What do you expect Takumi to do? Isn't he doing enough? What equal partner are you talking about when the bride-to-be was screwing around with another guy just a few days ago!?! Where's her loyalty? If she's serious about marrying Takumi she could at the very least pretend to enjoy it as she had with Nobu! It's the least she could do, Takumi's a human being too, how much crap do you expect him to take? What equal partner? Does she view her men as equal partners? Her being a dog is more than praise worthy. I've heard and known of many girls in real life who let themselves fall pregnant to get somebody else man and none of them have succeeded in my experience. That tactic seems to work well for Hachi though - in fact she seems so messed up that no one would actually even accuse her of being a gold digger! |
|
| Shin..and Nobu): |
| Awwe. People seem to be very angry with Hachi by this episode. I genuinely feel bad for her and more like her decision hurts her more than anyone else. I don't like Takumi but at this point I'm glad that I finally understand him. Their loveless marriage could turn into love by some chance. Probably not knowing how selfish Takumi is and how selfish Hachi can be though. I'm sure she'll at least gain happiness from raising the child though.I don't know, this drama is just all sorts of wow and addicting. |

| So amazing. I just lost all the respect I gained for Takumi in the last few episodes. I still believe he genuinely cares for Hachi, but I just can't stand that he insists on having sex in this tensed time, especially when Hachi pleaded with him not to. I still prefer him over Nobu, because he's responsible and will take care of the situation, but that one line he said: "Don't worry about anything and just focus on pleasing me." annoyed the crap outta me. I'm still waiting for some closure on Nobu and Hachi's relationship though. And I really want to see a heartfelt talk between Nana and Hachi sadface.... Poor Reira though. I feel so bad for her. It makes me somewhat annoyed though for her jealousy and reliance on Yasu. Babies are evil. Bottom line. XD |
