I love this anime so much that I'm going to complain about the little things. Damn old lady that walked past Nana to draw her attention. Damn that concierge that is doing his job, damn Hachi for talking too long at the train exit and not immediatley turning and seeing Nana exiting. And that was some forboding eye of the storm shit at the end there. But those reporters have been digging up major heat on Nana and Shin.

man, i find Reira so damn annoying kinda like Orihime from Bleach. why does Shin pay so much attention to her, he deserves waaaay better, he's like the coolest [and sanest] person in this show...

but it was really sad that in the end they ended up not seeing each other [the 2 Nanas]... but hey i can't say i'm really surprised, that's what this anime is all about: pain and suffering and sadness.

... In my opinion, the paparazzi is a far less likeable entity than Takumi. DX

I can't believe the Nanas kept passing each other by like that, ugh. Hope they manage to meet up and straighten things out sooner rather than later...

The things that come out of Hachi's mouth is ridiculous. "With enough effort, it will probably work." The thing about love is that it should come naturally. She shouldn't be "trying" to love Takumi. You either feel it or you don't. I mean, you put in effort to keep a relationship alive, but it feels like she is so obligated to be with Takumi because of the baby. She never even really liked him in the first place. She was a fan and probably got wrapped up in the fact that he was paying so much attention to her. All the things Takumi is saying is to keep her on a short leash.

Another bad sign is that she had to lie who she was talking to on the phone. That is not a healthy relationship at all, it's very controlling.

I feel like there is hope though. She actually did meet up with Shinichi and also asked how Nobu is. Nana also seems determined to win Hachi's friendship back. In all honesty, I doubt this anime would be rated as high as it is if it didn't have some kind of happy ending. If she actually ended up marrying Takumi, then people would probably rate the series a 5 or something. I have high hopes it will end well. I'm just sick of it staying depressingly stagnant.

Someone said earlier in another discussion, "The baby ruined everything." Yeah, pretty much. Moral of the story: Protection.

I'm gonna laugh if she gets a paternity test and it's actually Nobu's child. Condom broke, yo. Takumi: You are NOT the father!!! TROLOLOL

Since when was Orihime similar to Reira? O_o LOL Reira can't get over someone she used to love and now she's dragging everyone down with her just because she has low self esteem.
/soz i actually like orihime

But yeah, nice episode. :D

so little comments in this discussion...

I felt like crying when she asked about Nobu, that gives a slightest chance something will work out eventually.

The media fuss is going to be dangerous - they'll brag about things they don't know about each other.
Hachi saying her situation is like that of Shin parents and yet we get to know his mother committed a suicide - not a good omen, though.

really..just what are the odds of them passing by each other twice without noticing. The way it was said i feel as though nana (singer) wont see hachiko again. The press will be out for her. Also takami is announcing that he's getting married to hachiko soon so she'll have her hands full too.

It was so sad how both Nana's just weren't fated to meet on that rainy day. They passed each other twice... TWICE.

Finally, the show is heading to the direction I've been waiting for! Not to say I didn't like the current events, in fact they only add more to my anticipation for this new arc.

Black Stones and Ren on morning T.V... their entire worlds changed in an instant. I wonder how this is all going to turn out.

Last 9 episodes... let's go!

Hefty hefty times yo! Damn!!! Nana needs to see Hachi ASAP to slap some sense into her little pregnant brain. I've been there so I know how a pregnant brain works. Hachi clearly isn't happy, she isn't and she trying to make it work and her forced smile it hurting my eyes. Why try and make somrthing work? She's thinking of nobu y'all... If she didn't go with takumi, she wouldn't have been able to raise the child, and nobu would have been forced to get a job or take over his family's inn. It wouldn't have helped the story if they ended up together now. She's actually kind of using takumi to get by and give her kid the best , which leads to her being unhappy because her decision is obviously hurting others. Uuuughhhhh so deep ! I can't wait to see the end but I kind of don't want it to end

I guess theme of this episode was to signify how close Nana1 and Nana2 are yet still so far away both in physicality and in each others hearts.
Honestly at this point I can't feel any kind of sympathy for Nana1.Takumi is what she chose,I won't feel sorry for her if she's not happy about it.
Anyways the media is digging up dirt on not only Nana but all of the BLAST members which is not good.At this point i can't even imagine BLAST debuting will be good for their career much less their personal lives.
Poor Shin, he grew up never feeling the warmth and love of a mother just like Nana2.It must be why they are so drawn to Nana1 who is so homely.

That's pretty much it actually.Remember, Takumi came into her life offering marriage after he found out she was having a baby.Nana being fickle,having no stable job at the moment,lacking the strength to stand on her own feet, decided it was easier to just marry the guy who was essentially offering her the dream she had wanted for so long.It's not surprising that she would take it.It was her dream after all.

Now I'm back to not liking Hachiko. HOW DO YOU LOVE TAKAMI? There is nothing in their relationship that could have made her feel that way?
No, I was accepting of all of this when she admitted to just wanting to use him for his money and raising the child. THAT'S the only sensible thing here. Otherwise this makes no sense.

All the other stuff is wild. I'm liking how it's all playing out, but I'm scared of how this anime will end. Feels incoming.

both Nana may be fated to not meet again. "It's not like I'll never see her again" - said black Nana

I like how Ren reads black Nana.

Nana and Ren <3 I'm glad Nana's making the effort to see Hachi (of course when Hachi is out lol). She's so earnest and cute for trying to reach her apartment and then waiting for her uwu we love girlfriends

But of course the one time Ren and Nana leave together, a camera is waiting smh I think we knew it would come out eventually but ughhh those nasty paparazzi are something else.

It was good that Hachi met up with Shin to explain things to him. I also thought it was cool how she applied her situation to Shin's real life and how Hachi wanted to know how she could raise her baby so that they would never regret being born, like Shin once said. That was really eye opening and further helped me to see how great of a mother Hachi would be.

But how Hachi asked about Nobu at the end ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ you don't deserve to know how my baby Nobu is doing ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ but he is THRIVING without you.

Can't believe people like reporters exist, they exist just to make people's lives miserable
It just can't believe a human could do that like ruining many people's lives and stay sane
Maybe they're not human, just machine chasing for scoop & money

Apparently celebrities in Japan aren't normal human
Because last time a certain seiyuu (H*roC) have to apologize because he got married, for having a family
I'll hate this side of Japan forever

Japanese people really like to worry a lot huh
What if this child doesn't look alike or have same blood type
Should have understand before you did things you'll regret

"It's not like we'll never see each other again" The famous word, what a cliche xD

Does Hachi really love him? I dont get it. I hope it wont work for them. I cant stand Hachi actually falling for Takumi. Junko is true about it being the best for the baby but to say Hachi's love to Nobu is merely an imagination is too ignorant. I've disagreed with her a lot in this show.
