| I also don't like Takumi. I give him points for stepping up and taking respnsibility with the baby but with all his negative comments it's obvious to me he doesn't really love Hachi. Their relationship is like a moral obligation to him. Whether she's with him or not he said he'll support the baby. Hachi seems to have visions of a loving family in her head but the relationship they're in doesn't look like it can lead to true happiness. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |
| Interesting episode. For some reason I wanted Nobu and Nana to do it in the small room. Lol, call me weird, but I thought it'd put a really big twist on the show. Nobu definitely needs to get back with Hachiko. Takumi is an ass and that's all there is to it. |
| haha yeah a Nobu/Hachi affair would be awesome ^ ^ for many reasons... ...1) Nobu <3 .. and an affair wouldn't be like him at all 2) Hachi and Nobu would be happy and 3) Takumi gah..and he'd be so pissed if he found out *evil laugh* but serves him right theres still episodes left..it could happen XD |
 |
| Haha, that'd sure be a major plot twist and would make Takumi go nuts, which is always okay. But, I just can't see Nobu with anyone except Hachi... He's made for her, she just doesn't know yet. Not a very exciting episode, but it was enjoyable. |
| so very happy about the "get hachiko back plan" it seems that there is still hope for nobu<3 also, the ending was really nice ^^ I hope blast will get good sales ;.; |
 |
| YES! They haven't given up yet! There's a plan! and that plan sure as hell better work ;] I hope Blast's debut goes well... |
| Ooooh Trapnest VS BLAST can't wait to see who will win. |
 |
| The longer this Takumi thing goes on, the more I want to reach through the television screen and beat Hachi severely until she comes to her senses. I'll admit, I liked Takumi at first. He's a rock star, he's got long hair, he's got that "pulled together" aura about him... but the more I got to know him, the more I realized he's just a selfish jerk. Yes, Hachi is selfish too.. but she's just a child herself still, she at least has a chance to grow out of it, even though she may not have at this point. In fact, I think the child may help her learn to care about something other than herself (if she does keep it for sure, that is). ... and I like Ren, and I like Nana... but I still keep wanting Nana and Ren to break up so she can hook up with Yasu. I can't really explain it, but Yasu just seems better for her, somehow (even though I'm typically against dating within a bandmate situation) And one other thing I've been wondering for quite a while now -- what exactly is the age of consent in Japan?? I don't take issue with the whole prostitution thing, as what happens between two consenting adults is their business -- but Shin is, last I checked, still only 15... if that sort of thing is normal over there, then I suppose I'll accept it and stop freaking out.. but for now it just feels.. wrong.. I found the answer to my own question. Apparently in Tokyo, where Reira and Shin keep hooking up, age of consent is 13, which means Reira isn't doing anything illegal, other than hiring a prostitute. Even though I disagree personally with having sex with minors, it makes me view her character a bit differently -- she's not "some creepy chick going after children", she's just a woman looking for love, but paying for a substitute in the meantime.. |
    |
| haha. they were laughing at the contract signing! raccoon and fox. haha.. OH NO!! both albums will be released on the same date!?!?!?.. and what was with that vandalism! |
| There's still hope for Hachi and Nobu. |
| okay, I used to HATE nana, because of how whiney, annoying, crybaby, and obnoxious she was...but when she spray painted over that "NANA DIE" that totally changed my view of her. |

     |
| Yay I'm so happy they are trying to get Nana back!! but OMG who would write Nana Die??!!! |
 |
| These last two episodes have gone a long way to make me feel good in contrast to the really depressing episodes before it. That was a great scene with Hachi in the last few minutes. Great stuff, as usual. |

 |
| didn't the spraypaint part happened earlier...? |
Ouran12 said: okay, I used to HATE nana, because of how whiney, annoying, crybaby, and obnoxious she was...but when she spray painted over that "NANA DIE" that totally changed my view of her. well, maybe i didn't hate her and it didn't tottaly change mine view of Hachi but i must admit, that was awesome! BLAST vs Trapnest ! |
| I'm watching the dubbed (excellent cast, btw) but it is bugging the heck out of me that they aren't translating any of the Kanji. I had no idea that the graffiti said "Die Nana". |
 |
| Hachi was spraying graffiti lol |
| MAN THE FUCK UP NOBU TIME TO GET YOUR WOMAN BACK |
 |
| The world would be a better place if everyone had someone like Yasu in their life. |
| Hachi in that last scene was just great. Made me grin a bit. :D I imagine NANA asked for their debut date to be the same day as the day when Trapnest's single is released, hah. Hope NANA's "plan" goes smoothly. It would be great to see Nana back with the gang - which effectively seems like where she belongs, anyway. |
| LOOOLLL I love it when Hachi told Takumi he "needs to compromise more please for the kids' sake". Lol that chick is really crazy! And Takumi is crazier for marrying her! And on top of that she asked for a diamond ring from England. Lol Her dumbness indeed really makes her cute! Nana's wanting to stay in the spotlight and to sign a contract to be Hachi's heroine is a bit weird and out of character. That's a gross way of tryiing to link Hachi to Blast after she had severed all connections with them. At the very least Nobu should just move on. |

BLAST vs Trapnest ! Hachi gained some definite cool points there :) BLAST vs. TRAPNEST !! :3 |
| wow um a bit of a boring ep. but it made me mad that whole phone convo between takumi and nana i mean i really dont want this relationship to work out and reira was so cute in this ep. im glad nana has a plan to get hachi back but i still think nobu should move on..... the whole blast vs. trapnest thing is gonna fail trapnest is way bigger than blast and no offense but reira is a better singer IMO |
| I really don't know what to think of this Anime. Its really... different. |
 |
| Yes! Nana to the Rescue! Get back your dog! =D. |

| Great episode<3 I'm somewhat of a TakumixHachi lover right now though, so I hope they stay together. Unless Takumi meets his 'lover' in England. Then I'd be like " GO NOBUU!! <3" ahha |

 |
| It was an interesting episode. I wonder what's gonna happen between the two Nanas. |
| Everyone's bitching on Nana's fame from Ren. They didn't realize that she didn't do it on purpose. :S And screw whoever wrote the "Die" message ): Props for Hachi for erasing it. |
| I'm so glad that someone is finally DOING something to try to resolve the problems, instead of just letting more and more problems build up. It felt good to actually smile again at this anime, since I was starting to forget what it felt like with all the depressing issues (mainly the Hachi/Takumi situation) that have been going on in previous episodes. Things are finally starting to look up. I just hope it goes smoothly... |
| It's just hilarious, Takumi doesn't seems to care whether she stays or leaves and raises the kid alone, she doesn't care if he shouts at her and stuff like that. Hachi is really the perfect housekeeper. |
 |
| This episode made me so sad... I still miss the episodes where the gang and Hachi were together. But it's still a drama anime so I understand why they can't live happily together. |
| Oh wow it does seem to get a bit more happy and brighter along the path, but I do wonder why and who wrote that Nana should die under that bridge! Either way some interesting development I must say so let's see what's next! |
 |
| Damn BLAST's debut single will go head to head with Trapnest's >__< |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Never give up :) Still hoping for a happy ending . |

 |
| I'm gonna come out and say it: Takumi ain't a bad guy. Sure he can be an ass at times but he shows that he's also capable of showing some genuine affection for Nana. Just saying, dude's not black and white. |
| Though Takumi is self-centred, but he was with Hachiko when she needed him most that what even Yasu can't do to Reira, you have to admit Takumi has his own charm. And as I know, Ai Yazawa sensei also likes Takumi most. |

| Wow. This brought a tear to my eye. So touching. Nobu ;-; Okay, Nana managed to partially redeem herself this episode. But still... THAT DOESN'T CHANGE HOW IMMATURE THIS SHOW IS OMG. I HATE THIS I HATE THIS. SO MUCH DRAMA. AND NO ONE DIED. AND IT'S NOT EPIC AND IT'S A SHOUJO. FUK DIS SHIT. |
