| wow!! now we see what the other nana went through.. and ren.. although i didn't like how he left the band and nana and stuff... it was dampened when he was crying at the train.. he really did love nana.. i hope nana becomes a successful singer too!!! :D |
| That was great. |
| Excellent, I almost cried when I saw Ren's poster in that street. I wonder what Rocky Nana would have been thinking when she saw it. |
| What are you guys talking about, this was very very touching and beautifyl IMO |
| Fantastic episode.. why the hell did I put this show on hold again? |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| That...was a good ep. |
     |
| Osaki Nana is definately awesome. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| I cried. sad. |
 |
| I'm glad i picked up this series, really starting to grow on me. Excellent episode. |
| "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it." Oogway |
| WOW, awesome. I cried, this scene when they were kissing in the train and Nana run away crying, and Nobuo run after seeing the last time Ren and he was also crying... STUNNING! |

I wasn't sure, at first, if I would actually like this series, and thought that I might end up thinking of it as slow-moving and boring like some of the other commenters... but I really like it. This episode was fantastic, IMO. It wasn't action-packed or anything, but the drama and emotions were pretty intense. The scene were both Ren and Nana were basically on the ground crying as Ren left on the train was so sad... |
| Brilliant, emotional episode. The drama is so well done when compared to some other series, it's realistic and not at all annoying like I find a lot of other anime to be. Loved the backstories, particularly Osaki's and I can't get over how good the ending song is. I love how it builds up at the end of every episode then when the lyrics kick in the ending animation starts. So wonderfully done. The background music, too, is very good. |
| BORING |

| I just...felt so incredibly sad for Nana when the poster of Ren came up. And the scene with the train just broke my heart. It's bloody fcking brilliant what they did to me in just two episodes. The character development is incredible. More than you get from most shows. "Just a one-way ticket to Tokyo." |
| Pretty nicely done. Damn, I'm won. |

vearg said: although i didn't like how he left the band and nana and stuff... it was dampened when he was crying at the train.. Agree, I didn't like him too but wow, when I saw him crying it really changed my perspective on him. He really did care and its hard for him, that's good to know. Dark Nana's story was much more interesting than Light Nana's surprisingly. xD (yes, I'm calling them that) |
 |
| This episode was great. I found it so sad that Nana and Ren separated. It really got to me. |
| Not too bad of an episode, I can't wait till this anime gets going from when they get a apartment together! |

| This singer-rocker Nana story is nice.. So Ren did became famous with that new group.. Well, go Nana! |
| Simply brilliant. Love the show so far. |
 |
| This was just the prologue? Wow, the story... my feelings were being toyed with so bad (especially when Nobuo saw Ren crying by himself on the train). I love, and hate the realistic portrayal in a way, but in no way do I want it to stop... make any sense? 5/5 Time for the 'present'. |
 |
| When Nana and Ren were saying goodbye at the train station I cried a little bit. I can totally relate to these characters. |
| Omg best episode so far. I loved it so much. I cried ;( that was so sad. I already adore this nana |

| Lovely yet sad episode but well this sure was a great backstory from this Nana! Let's see what's next! |
 |
| Nana really loved ren. But he's a womanizer 6/10 |

| That was bittersweet. So Ren really loved rocker Nana :( He chose to follow his dreams, it's a once in a lifetime chance, can't miss it. And Nana was so strong to let him go and follow her own dreams as well. T___T |

| Such an emotional episode. I feel you Nana... I wish the two of them meet again :$ Guess the next episode will be with both Nanas starring :D Can't wait for more ^__^ |

| Well if Nana turns out to be one of my fav series after it ends (which frankly, it has the potential to), this episode will be one of the reasons why. A wonderful episode capping off the backstories of both the Nana's. I can't remember watching such a powerful episode this whole year. 5/5 |

| Very emotional episode. Nana is amazing so far. |
 |
| Nana is a real one. Didn't phase me as much as the rest of you for some reason. |

| Again, another sad yet strong love story. ''During cold nights, there is surely someone to warm his bed...'' I think the worst in that kind of situation is to know that there is a great chance your past lover have turned the page and go on another adventure while you're still holding tightly on those memories, not being able to forget... At least, she have a plan and a dream, to leave her trace in Tokyo, to ''give him something'' back. But I think she overthinked it sadly. I'm pretty sure all he wanted her was her love, but as soon as she hesitated, it was over. I just hope she can move onto something else. |

| Nice way to end the backstory. |
 |
| Great episode, I feel things will just get better & better after this one. |
