Everyoner looks the same so I didn't tell there was a flashback until a long time.

I liked the episode :)

But I don't know if Yano overreacted when he slapped Nana-san... I didn't understand if she really did cheat on him or just saw his old boyfriend as she said...

When Yano accused her of cheating on him she didn't even try to deny it which leads me to believe that she was acting unfaithful in some way.

I still don't understand why Nana's sister, Yuri, treats Yano the way she does... I guess there's more to the story that has yet to be revealed.

this anime is really something else..i'm loving it so far :)

The flashback part was really nice at start but then really sad, I still don't understand why Yano's gf were like that I mean she really liked to suffer.

I love the part when Yano asked Nana what is happines that was lovely!

Better episode than the others, since it explained Nana and Yano’s past relationship.

Yano’s too much of a jerk and a liar for me to like him.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

It's kind of annoying how Yano always tells these little lies (Saying something then saying 'just kidding'). It's hard to like him like this, I can't tell whenever he says something emotional/serious if it's just another lie or not. I hope he won't keep on like this.
I also think that slapping her gf was a bit too much. I mean yeah, she was stupid, but he shouldn't become like that other jerk.

Please. She fucking cheated on him, after he got her out of an abusive relationship. I'd be more than pissed. And you could tell in his face that he instantly regretted it. Plus, he went and got his ass kicked to boot.

well loved to see some more background but also i think the hit in her face was a bit over reacting sure he got the right to get pissed but hitting a girl is out of the question and even if he was pissed if he hits her it doesn't make him much better then the other guy she was dating.

also wondering if she really cheated on him and the kimono picture was funny lol.

That was a really good episode =O
But dang, he slapped her! =( But he felt guilty and got beaten up, so I guess it makes things even...ish...?
I want a Yukata =O
Ah I forgot about the meat buns part. xD It's been like 6 years since I've read the manga, but as I watch the anime then things start coming back to me. It's amazing how memories work like that...If only I could remember things when I want to though. xP

The main character girl is Nanami (Nana) Takahashi. She has the same first name as Yano's ex girlfriend. She also has the same last name as the creator of InuYasha T^T (Takahashi) <3

It looks to me that Nanami is very similar to Nana, in their attitudes, how stupid they are(lol), the way they resemble each other(a little bit). In this episode, Nanami pretty much said the same thing as Nana when asked what is happiness, when they answer with the hot coffee analogy.

Yano called her Nana-chan instead of Takahashi..... ;O

Honestly, I think she should go for Take-kun. He's not as cute, but his personality is so much nicer.

This episode made me really wish this show had better voice actors, seriously.

One of the best short tragic stories I've ever seen in anime. Her end was extremely unsettling, hurts me to think how Yano must've felt, knowing that his girl died in an accident with her scummy ex, right after making that sweethearted promise, the subtle reason we probably won't get drives me crazy...did the guy force her into the car due to revenge? Or did she give in and deliberately went with the guy? Ah, thinking about this just hurts.

Takeuchi taking a picture of Takahashi in that yukata for Yano was great. Really felt it when Takahashi got tears in her eyes because of that.

But damn, quite the emotional flashback. I'm not entirely sold that Nana cheated on Yano, but from what we already know it does LOOK like that. But it doesn't explain why Nana's sister hates Yano so much. I guess there's more to this.

Getting better.

Whoa turns out Nana was a thot with pretty little self respect........ :/

it's disappointing Yano hit her (and this is by no means justifying his disgusting behaviour) but she did seem like a fake little ingrate. I'd wanna hit her too lol

I'm hoping for a love triangle with Takeuchi?? >.<

"I'm always watching you" that is stalker behavior. It's rare that I like the male MC more than the female, but it is 1000% true here. I don't understand why this girl is so obsessed with his dead girlfriend.
