I like how everything is warm and has a happy atmosphere... but I have a feeling it won't last long. Also, this episode didn't have enough Shin... I really want to know more about his past.

Shin is one very very intriguing character. And Hachiko is slowly becoming a great character in my opinion.

Especially what she said to Nobu near the end.

"LOL @ Ren feeling up Nana."

I loved that part as I have never seen him be a perv like that before.

Somehow I feel that something will happen to cause issues between them, namely Takumi.

Seriously, there are so many great characters in this series... True, I didn't want to see Shouji either, but the rest of the episode was filled with awesome characters, so I ignored it. XD Even Takumi, in his own heartless way, is probably an interesting character... I mean, how did he get to be such a womanizer anyway? It'd be cool if there were some deeper reason - and not that he's just a playboy.

Shin really intrigues me now, what with all of the things his "father" said. And I definitely didn't expect Ren to be sort of perverted like that! Then again, he's surprised me at other times - like in the way that he actually does want children and doesn't want NANA taking the pill. Hmm...

I hope Hachi and Nobu last as a couple. :> You can tell there is going to be some difficulty ahead, though. This is probably the calm before the storm.

Don't get why ppl are rooting for Takumi, as well. Didn't he just say that her getting mad at him doesn't mean anything? It's just as if he thinks she falls for him no matter what and only he can end it. That's so selfish.
Hachi&Nobu are geat together - finally she has some real relationship.
Also a lot of background stories in this episode... I love how Yasu is so caring about ppl around.

Poor Shin!! Broke my heart. Lol, but he did have a point about Nana's possessiveness. I was like wtf when she said that thing about Hachi to Nobu omg.

I've been thinking for awhile now that Hachi's commentary at the beginning and end sound like something bad happens, and she's just reminiscing about what happened in the past (which is what we're watching)? She's definitely talking in a past tone.

I don't want to see Shouji and Sachiko! That arc has been trampled on, leave Shouji!
Shin is still my favourite character.

Those who stand at the top determine what's wrong and what's right! This very place is neutral ground! Justice will prevail, you say? But of course it will! Whoever wins this war becomes justice!

Well if you look at things it seems the anime is going get quite dramatic really soon or at least very problematic! The way Nana didn't properly broke of and already started with Nobu might cause some big problems but at least the other Nana doesn't bother it.

To be honest now that Nana cheated her self I don't mind Shouji and Sachiko's relation that much more... but well they're pretty useless characters though to the story that is.

I do wonder what the past of Shin really is and why him and his stepfather doesn't want it to be revealed...

Either way let's see what's next!

Blehh why did they have to show Shouji and Sachiko? I don't see how they're still relevant to the story.

Also, Hachi's end narration is becoming more disturbing.

Intriguing episode. Especially the part about Shin... I want to know

way it will be... Wonder what's going through Nana Osaku's mind...

Let me tell you dudes, the scenes involving Shouji were the best part of not only this episode but the last few episodes. As I said previously, IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO, YO. It was a pretty unbiased perspective on the whole shabang, y'know?

But the most important part of that IMO was Jun and Kyousuke's observations that relationships with Nana are very one-sided; she expects to receive all this love but doesn't give it. It complimented the first scene with Nana making that observation herself and how she wants to "spoil" Nobu. Perhaps she's matured a little bit after all.

but damn, man, the fuck everyone have to be so loose for? quit fuggin on the first date smfh STUDIES SHOW YOU KNOW THAT RELATIONSHIPS WHERE PEOPLE WAIT TO FUG UNTIL AFTER 90 OR SOME DAYS IN THEIR RELATIONSHIP ARE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE LIKELY TO LAST THAN RELATIONSHIPS WHERE YOU FUGGIN IN THE FIRST WEEK. RESPECT YOUR BODY AND RESPECT YOUR SOUL.

expected this kinda shit outta Takumi but I respected Nobu more than to do the bang with Nana a day after she broke up with slutbag. If yo girl is immature, you gotta be mature for her. KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS.

Also, it was this episode that I realized there are significantly fewer guys in the series that Nana hasn't had a crush on than there are guys she has had a crush on. looool

Poor Shin,it's now clear he had a crappy childhood,no wonder he is prostituting.Is it me or does it seem like he's falling for Reira?
For some reason I actually like Nobu x Nana1,they are too cute <3 .
At least Nana seems to be entering this relationship with a better attitude.I wonder if they'll last though.
Wow who knew Nana2 was so possessive? I was actually surprised by what she said to Nobu.So she is using Nobu to satisfy her own selfish desire to keep Nana1 close to her.Well I guess it's cool that Nobu knows about this side of hers.

I must be the only few happy to see Shouji and Sachiko again. Thankfully the show didn't conveniently villainize him cos that would really break his character. I thought him apologizing to Sachiko for not bringing back a LV bag was a sweet display of his often undervalued sincerity.

Despite his cheating, he is essentially a caring and down-to-earth person. Similar to Nobu in a way, sans all the dreamy fluffs. I can relate to a person like Shoji as someone whos also constantly worrying about future stability. It's a concern that never surface from Hachi's mind throughout the entire series -- one of the main reason why both of them always felt so disconnected.

At the flurry of the moment, humans often make mistakes. Nobody is perfect and it's through mistakes that people learn. Seeing him and Sachiko still happily together validates that. Both of them found love and someone who appreciate one other. Who are we to judge them. After all, love is blind isn't it.

Anyways, I love this episode. Anytime Jun and Kyosuke makes an appearance, I know the episode's gonna be good. The whole sequence of them talking about Hachi pretty much summed up how I feel. It's frightening how perceptive they always are. I guess it's anime after all.

So June thinks that after someone cheats on Nana she should kick and scream to get him back...that is beyond stupid.

I'm beginning to think that the two Nana's might end up together at the end. They have a very interesting obsession with each other without the other one really knowing. That would be a cool twist. But no matter what happens I just wanna get to the ending. Nana narrating at the end of each episodes is making me anxious.

I do not look forward to Takumi showing up again, thinking the relationship is still on. Why couldn't Nana have simply told him "it's over between us" instead of "don't call me again!"?
