Whoa, Nana sure had a lot of boyfriends =P
This episode was basically about how Nana met Shoji (and her past relationships). They'll probably do the same for the other Nana.

Its shaping up to be a series of psychological stereotypes. if so, this will be disapointing.

I like backstory so this is episode is a good thing. She sure falls in love fast, but I can relate in a way. Although sleeping with a married man not so much. Im ready to go on to the 3rd.

Not as good as the first ep but it's best to get all of the exposition out of the way early for the real story to begin.

I'm really liking these episodes! I stay absorbed throughout the whole thing and don't even notice until the credits start rolling ^^. Yeah Nana's a little (or very) easy in falling in love with guys but said from her point of view it didn't seem slutty to me but rather that she just really admires men a lot.

Good episode, and it was sort of a refreshing change that by the end she had actually only become friends with a guy -- Shouji -- rather than falling in love with him... even though he likes her. The episode actually didn't make me think badly of Nana, though it seemed kind of ridiculous how she would just fall in "love" over and over... ._.'

You all don't like this Nana? HOW IS SHE A SLUT.
She a crush on a lot of guys like I'm sure you all have. She had like 4 or 5 boyfriends during highschool. I don't think that makes her a slut. Maybe she just falls for men easily.

I like this Nana, actually I like both. Good episode. >:

yeah it really puts me off too - especially when it's the main protagonist. On the plus side I think it gives a more realistic view of women

ugh how can any of you say nana is a slut, or she's had a lot of boyfriends? she only crushed on all of those guys, and only dated one. she was a normal high school girl, i don't see her that way at all!


Hello where've u guys been? She's been sleeping around with them too! Not only she f***ed her teacher but even beded a married man too! - She sought sex explicitely duh! I don't know what high school u people go or went to or in what country u are but when I went to high school girls weren't that loose! From my perspective if a girl is like that in high school I don't know how she's gonna turn up in her 20s (hopefully at this rate by 25 she'd probably have bedded like 30+ men and you people are going to say that's normal!)? If that doesn't make someone a slut I don't know what does. This just goes to show how in modern society the distinction between girlfriend/mistress/escort/model/prostitute is getting more and more blury.

Not only did she "fall in love" with pretty much every guy she met, but she let a MARRIED guy into her heart and let him take advantage of her! How could she possibly keep on doing that...?

Mixed feelings about Nana.

I guess I do feel empathetic towards her past experiences, but at the same time ... is it really like that? In regards to real life. I don't know. But this is interesting.

What do you mean "take adventage of her"!?! Wasn't she looking for sex?
"getting raped" in a night club? This is the type of girl who brings the notion of rape to disrepute.

No sure to call her "slut", she doesn't really look for sex... she kinda believe she is in love every time, she's just extremely naive and lost sort of.. I like back-stories in general, wonder how the past will reflect on her future. It's probably shown to understand her actions more, isn't it?

I'm hoping there'll be episodes like this for the other Nana too, as she is definitely my favorite of the two.

I don't think of this Nana as a slut or whore, like some people have said. After all, only one of all the guys she mentioned was her "boyfriend", and even then, he wasn't really a boyfriend. The other guys were just chrushes.

Sorry but Nana is realistic for a lot of people I know. Is sleeping with a married man a good idea? No, but Nana is naive, just like many people are at that age.

Great episode, by the way. :)

1. Nana Komatsu will pretty much fall for any guy.

2. Don't like komatsu after hearing her backstory. She's reckless. But somewhere, she means well.

Huh how is she a slut? I don't see it *shrugs*

She was a high schooler, she was pretty much just crushing on every guy who caught her attention. It's not like she slept with every single one of them and it's not like she shifted her attention from one guy to another in like a week, it happened over time -__- Then when she found the one guy who "liked" her, she stuck with him. Her only mistake was that she had an affair with a married man.

Exactly this. Personally, I find the term 'slut' to be a very sexist expression as well. A man who sleeps with many women will be applauded, but a woman who sleeps with many men will be shamed? This double standard always bothered me. Having said that, I agree what people have been saying about Nana's naiveté. It appears that she falls too easily for different men, which makes her very vulnerable. Her choice to associate with a married man is culpable, but understandable in hindsight.

Pretty disturbed by all the slut shaming in this post.

Anyway, I don't like that Nana was in a relationship with a married man and had no qualms about it. That's really unethical of her, but it's pretty much her only sin from the past. She was kinda vulnerable and let her emotions control her tough, albeit this isn't an excuse.

Still, overall she seems like a really nice person, the kind of person who will regret it someday.
I don't get how falling in love easily makes someone a slut. If she was a boy, people would actually find it somewhat innocent.

My thoughts exactly.

I am so conflicted over this episode. I really enjoy the themes and the touch of maturity being brought to the topic of romance, but damn... sleeping with a married man? Inexcusable. She'd better develop well, because right now she's the typical teenage airhead that I dislike. And she's not even a teen anymore.
