I'm getting more and more certain that this anime doesn't have a happy ending from the way Hachiko talks about Nana in the endings.

Getting more interesting each and every episode. Apparently Takumi doesn't think they have broken up yet, that's bad.

Nana talking about ''setting Hachi free in her own garden'' sounded really heartless. Is she really like that?
And Shin's past has to be revealed soon!

Lol what the hell? why is everyone rooting for Takumi now?
For some reason I'm starting to get the feeling that things won't end well for Hatchiko and Nana's relationship.
I also loved the part where Ren was feeling up Nana hahah! :D
I also wonder what's behind Shin and Takumi? Why are they the way they are now?

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.
Pirates are evil? The Marines are righteous? These terms have always changed throughout the course of history! Kids who have never seen peace and kids who have never seen war have different values! 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.
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness."

"May those who defy their fate be granted glory."

Intriguing episode. Especially the part about Shin... I want to know
more about him! And Takumi still thinks the two of them are a couple?
Hope he leaves Nobu and Hachi be... Though I don't think that's the
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!"?

Basically she is saying that Nobu can look after Nana when she herself isn't around. Also with them both being in the same band she will always be able to keep an eye on Nana and not worry about someone taking Nana away from her.

And with that I mean Takumi messing with their relationship

and why are they still showing shouji and sachiko ?? anyway , I love when jun and her bf show up

Also happy to see Nana x Nana again .
About the things Hachi says ,
I think that something bad happened with them that affected their friendship rather than Nana is dead/in coma , well I hope that's the case

As I thought Takumi has some feelings for Hachi, I didn't understand what Nana ment when she told Nobu at the stares but I think something bad is gonna happen soon, and Shin looks like from a rich family with a stepdad.

I didn't realize Nana was so possessive O.O I like how we got to learn more about her past in this episode, though. Her obsessive and possessive nature is probably going to be her downfall or have something to do with what the anime is building up to...

Who is this unimportant ex-boyfriend? I forgot about him
We all forgot about him, right? xD

But wasn't people like that?
Once they break up they're just "escape" from their partner

"Is she that good"
Oh Nana (while drooling) xD

Damn Nana is scary, but Shin is probably correct in a way
I always guessed that Shin is probably a "bastard", but that's kinda sad when your family doesn't even love or acknowledge you
Sucks people like them exist

Misato hid her name too, maybe she's related to Shin?

So, Takumi in fact, doesn't think that his relationship with Nana has been severed, I can smell a misunderstanding already... We got a lot of stuff on Osaki Nana this episode, she's rather dark honestly, that scene made me jump to realization that she isn't all "nice" and stuff. I feel rather bad for Shin, seems like he was never loved, and that's why he has the tendency to sleep with women literally every single day, just to feel the warmth of a person, to get "fake" loved. I'm hoping Shin and Reira manage to fall for each other properly, and actually develop a proper relationship.

i love seeing nana and hachi's relationship - they care about each other so much.

i hope nana will give a direct breakup to takumi or something seeing as it can complicated. also, nobu and hachi are so cute together i'm so happy for them!!

misato in the last scene was cute but there really is something mysterious about her especially when yasu asked her if misato is her real name.
