It’s the New Year. Hachi have been staying at Nana’s place for a while now since their husbands are overseas.

In London, Reira have a cold so she couldn’t got to Sweden like she wanted. Ren is looking after her and yelled at Takumi who didn’t go to see her even once! When Takumi decided to go because Ren was so annoying, Ren had a warm smile… I hope it’s just a friendship love. >_< Ren loved Reira because she went out with Yasu, but he loves Nana, right??

When Reira woke up she could see Takumi sleeping near her and holding her hand… Then she remembered her conversation with Ren. She said, it seems like being the singer of Trapnest was more precious to her than Shin-chan. What makes her sad it’s the fact that her decision hurted Shin. Then Ren said that what she really wanted was to stay at Takumi’s side… she tried to denied it, but we all know it’s true… Back from the flashbacks, we see Reira crying.

Back to Tokyo, Shion (in contact with Yasu) does some investigation on Nana’s family since they left their house and there is a lot of rumors amongst the fans. Misato’s friend, Chikage, is very worried about her since they didn’t contact each other since then.

Black Stone first album is finally on sale! The album title is Black spot. It seems like the meaning is ‘a place where accidents happen regularly’. Nana’s named it, but I don’t get it… hehe. Hachi bought 3 copiessaying she wanted to contribute to the chart. Nana looks even more pissed because the money it’s from Trapnest (Takumi). Trapnest is like an ennemie for Nana. Even if their sales are pretty much the same, even though Ren give her that much attention… Hachi is wondering what demon Nana is fighting with. I wonder if it’s her pride. Is she jealous of Reira? She didn’t like the idea of Ren writing songs for another girl, etc. Plus she knows Reira is a good singer. Maybe the fact that Ren left them for Trapnest?? Thinking that it’s because they were not good enough? Well I guess there is ton of reasons…

Chikage and Shion’s right hand met with Misato’s brother (Nana’s step brother). They moved out temporary since the media came to their house. Civilians are not supposed to be named, etc. but since they took pictures of the neighborhood, the media all knew it was them. So Misato moved to her aunt. She didn’t want to come back with her brother. She don’t answer to Chikage’s phone call as well. It seems like she pity Nana and can’t forgive her mom. When they asked about the whereabouts of her mom. He was ashamed to say that she fled… her mom acted like she was OK, but now she feel bad as well? Or she just leave everybody when she wants?? Or she will try to contact Nana??

One of my friend went to Japan recently and got me two vending machine capsule with NANA keychains!

The chapter started with Nana’s reading the article with NObu worried in front of her. Nana’s cellphone was ringing, but she did not answered… it was Hachi. When Nana’s finished reading the article, Nobu started saying that she shouldn’t let the article bother her. Even if her mother left her, etc. she should look to her friends who are good as familly now. He was worried, but she just started smiling saying that she understands. She sees how precious she is to all of them. She said the article look fake as well.

Then the door rang. Nobu went to check the door. He saw Hachi on the screen. He push the button to open the door and told her to come in. She was surprised to hear Nobu’s voice… she hesitated to enter. When he told Nana that its Hachi, she couldn’t believe him since she is suposed to be at her parent’s. Then Nobu run to get Hachi since he was afraid that she left because he was there (they still didn’t really make up).

Nobu said he was really happy to see her there since he was really worried for Nana. Hachi’s heart was feeling really heavy, but after talking to Nobu, she felt lighter. I guess the situation with Nobu was hard on her as well and it just stopped now. I’m glad that they could be able to met again normally.

So Hachi decided to stay with Nana until Ren comes back. Both husband will come back at the same times anyways. ^_^; When Nana join her band for practice, they were all surprised to see how cheerful she looked. They soon understood that it might be because Hachi was there.

Back at home, Nana received a call from Ren who was worried with the article. Hachi was a little jealous to know that he calls her everyday. Hachi thought that when she is with Takumi, she feels like she have a reason to live. But when they are appart, she wonder what is her value to him. I guess she is really happy with Takumi somehow and loves him a lot. Back to Nana and Ren’s call, she said that she knew it was possible that her mom was still alive. No one ever told her that she was dead anyway. What bother her, was that they publish it like that without any hesitation. I’m happy that Nana could talk to Ren like that. Sometimes I was wondering if she could be herself with him. When you love someone, you should be able to show your weakness to them.

When they hang up, we see Ren and Reira together at a park. They had a normal conversation about relationship, then Reira started saying that if she goes to Sweden now, what would happen. Ren asked why Sweden. He said to not stir his curiosity then not explain herself. Then she said that she really wanted to see the place where Shin was born and raised. Ren was surprised. She continued, saying that maybe they’ll understand each other more. She was the one who asked to stop seeing each other, but now she can’t do anything for him. Reira was crying and Ren hold her. It seems like Ren didn’t know for Reira and Shin.They seems to have a normal friendly relationship and Reira trusted him enought to say all that. I think she never told anyone about Shin. I think Ren really loves Nana and Reira loves Shin, so they won’t do anything, but I am sure that they’ll be misunderstood. There is so many hints for that…

At the ending naration, Hachi said that before that New Year she was full of hope. She didn’t know that the countdown to the tragedy had already started. So it will start soon?? We will soon see what will happen to Nana. For the few hints we got, it seems like everybody will think that Nana died. She looks OK with the article, I wonder what will hurt her. Since she thinks its fake, maybe she’ll be hurt when she’ll meet her mother? Her step sister, Misato, will probably want to talk to Nana, ask her mom to apologize, etc. It can’t be just that. Maybe her mom will tell her why she abandonned her. Maybe she’ll say means things like she never love her, etc. What about Ren? I hope nothing bad will happen to Ren. Since the past two chapters, Hachi hoped for a miracle: that Ren and Nana met. If both of them are alive, we won’t call it a miracle… but at that time, she wasn’t sure Nana was still alive. Oh well… let’s wait for chapter 65 ^_^;

Hachi couldn’t sleep so she took the train to her parent’s. We also see Shin waking up and leaving that woman who look just like Reira. Seems like she likes little boys.

Yasu is also meeting with Misato who brought her grand-father diary ans some letter that Nana’s mother wrote to him. She explained that her parent were really busy, her grand-mother passed away, so she was raised by her grand-father when she was little. When he passed away during middle school, she couldn’t leave his house and spend days crying. Then she found his diary. That’s when she discovered that Nana’s grand-mother and her grand-father were lovers. No, he is not related to Nana, he is not her grand father or anything. Just her grand-mother’s lovers after she moved to Tokyo with her mom. Even before Nana was born. Before he died, he was worried about Nana and her grand-mother. At the last page of the diary, he was talking about Nana who looked very happy for the first time. She told him she had a boyfriend and a band. He said that her grand-mother should be happy in heaven now.

After that Misato was very curious about Nana. Yasu asked her why she was curious about Nana, Misato said she don’t know. She is the type to fall easyly in love with characters in stories. Hehe. She said when she first saw Nana in a live, it was love at first sigh! She think it must be her grand-father blessing that both of them met like that so they won’t be lonely.

She never met Nana’s mother. It seems like she wanted to cut off ties and not be involved. She said “I want to forget the past. So just leave me alone.”. Nana’s mother and grand-mother didn’t have a good relationship, Misato’s grand-father was their go-between.

We all know that Misato is very worried that Nana will get hurt when she’ll know all that, but Yasu was wondering why Misato still use Nana’s step sister real name. Of course it was really careless! She didn’t think much about it at that time I guess. She just wanted to become Nana’s little sister. She was a fan, but she knew Nana’s more than anyone else and started to be obsessed with the other members as well. She was very excited to discover more on their life. I feel like she is talking about us too, obsesses fan of NANA.

Trapest are still in London recording. At breakfast, Reira is talking that she wants to go to Sweden. Ren said he’ll go if there are good ramen shop. Reira wants to go by herself. She said she wants to go with her heart true love. Naoki is making a fuss, wondering who is her true love! Yasu? he asked. And why Sweden. Ren was worried and left the room with her. Somehow Takumi looked pissed that they looked friendly together. Because of those photo we saw Reira and Ren together?

Hachi was still very worried and thought she needed to talk to someone. So she called Takumi. First thing he said is that she been fooled by him. The pictures was probably fake. Shin and Reira whouldn’t be so careless. Then he said, the problem is solve and was about to hang up! She still wanted to talk about Nana, but Takumi said to call Yasu instead. Hachi was pissed and hang up on cluless Takumi. Then we see him go kiss some girl in a christmas party. o_O While Hachi was still pissed and crying on her bed. She knew he couldn’t do anything, but she wanted him to be worried with her. And she also thought about when he sold the information about them to Search instead of Ren and Reira’s photo and he didn’t say a word to her.

When Hachi was about to call Yasu, her little sister rushed to her room with Search’s article on Nana “The selfish mother who abandonned NANA”! Hachi was really shocked since the article wasnt suposed to be release before some days. I guess it’s a weekly or monthly magazine. She didn’t think they’ll publish it so quickly, she thought she still have some times to fix it. She thought how stupid she was.

We also see Nana’s step brother with some reporter in front of his house. Then he told Misato (the real one) to not leave the house and close the curtains. I wonder how she’ll react when she’ll know that she have the same mother than Nana… She’ll be a little happy, but she’ll be very upset with her mom since she loves Nana so much. I wonder how will be their next meeting.

At Blast’s, they said the boss knew and didn’t stop because it’ll be some good publicity. But they are worried for Nana. Misato is crying, while Shin think she’ll be OK. They were about to all go to tell her, but Yasu said that only Nobu should go. Nana might hate it if she sees that everybody are sorry for her. And its better that its Nobu since she can cry on his shoulder. That we have a flash back on when Nana was telling Yasu to not be too nice to her if he don’t want to betray Ren.

In the ending naration with images of Ren and Reira having fun playing guitar, Hachi was saying “Even though I can’t give you hapiness. At least I want to be by your side and be able to share your sadness with you. Once again.”

I wonder why there is so many images of Ren and Reira. Will they really be lovers or everybody will misunderstood they relationship? They said Ren was after Reira as well at the begining, but Yasu took her. With those words at the end, we can understand that Nana will be hurt with all this… the news about her mother and thr things with Ren?

I just found out about www.sp-studio.de where you can create your own South Park character in Flash. It’s fun. It’s was pretty hard to make a girl… ^__^;

First chapter of the 17th volume!

The chapter started in the present. We see Hachi going to the appartment 707. She take the mails and see there is one adressed to “Mrs Ichinoise” (Takumi’s name). Then she see Shin who missed her mommy. He look so hot!! o_O Shin said the place look the same with all the things Nana left behind. Hachi said she didn’t find the other key yet, so she keep hoping that Nana still have it and will come back some day.

Hachi decided to open the letter with her name on it. Since there was no reply adress, she thought that maybe it was from Nana. She still believe that Nana is alive somewhere. She had a shock to see Nana’s pictures. Yes the pictures we saw that phorographer took in Germany. In Hachi naration, she said that every year on christmas, she pray for a miracle; for the night when Ren and Nana will meet again. I wonder why she hope for that. I thought she will hope for herself and Nana to meet again… why Ren?? Did something happenned to Ren? They got a fight maybe!? It’s the reason that she left?

So back to the past… Hachi came back to that restaurant and meet Nana’s mother. Hachi was very nervous. She was even more nervous when she opened the TV and see Nana in the show. Nana’s mother’s husband was laughing to Nana’s answers to the quiz. Nana’s mother was still evry calm about it. Hachi was still not sure if she was Nana’s mother or not.

Then we see Misato coming back from the party. She was deceived that the show had already started. Hachi was surprised that Misato was a big fan of Nana. She was in shock to know that her name was “Misato Uehara”… like the Misato she knows (who’s real name is May). Thinking about the past when Misato (May) said she must know everything about Blast, she realised that Misato (May) probably knew about Nana’s secret!? Then she see even more possibility that the woman is really Nana’s mother! Hachi understood that the familly don’t know about Nana’s secret. Nana’s mother probably force herself to be calm even if she might be nervous to see Nana everywhere.
After her meal, Hachi asked Nana’s mother to show her the way since she don’t know the town. Outside, Hachi told her that she is Takumi’s wife and Nana’s friend. Nana’s mother had some shock her eyes for a moment. Then she said that a magazine is about to publish something about Nana and her mother. Hachi said they should all gather to see what to do before the whole familly get involved and hurted. But Nana’s mother totally denied it saying there is nothing to do with her. Hachi insisted thinking about what Takumi said; that if true or not its the same when the media talk about it, its bad for them. Nana’s mother was annoyed and ask her to not come back.

Hachi was desperated. She really wanted to help Nana, but didn’t know what to do. She was about to call Yasu when the photographer appeared. He wanted to know what Nana’s mother said (he was spying, but didn’t hear the conversation). Hachi was scared and kept saying that she said nothing in particular. Then he show her a picture of Shin and Reira. Hachi was in shock. She beg him to not publish it. He said like the case of the picture of Reira and Ren, when she was a sacrifice, there should be another sacrifice… If she told him what Nana’s mother said and not interfer with the article on Nana, he won’t publish the story of Reira and Shin. Hachi didn’t understood since she didn’t know about the picture of Reira and Ren. He then told her about it.

.
Hachi remembered when Shin was crying after he broke up with Reira. She thought that if they publish it, their separation will be pointless. Somehow she choosed to save Shin who worried her more. She thought Nana was stronger and will be able to mold her destiny. Hachi idolised Nana and couldn’t see that Nana was very weak at that time. Even if she knew,  it was very hard on her.
Later we see the photographer talking to his boss. We learn that the girl on the picture is not even Reira!! It’s another customer of Shin who look like Reira. At the same time we see Shin going to that girl place for chistmas. Shin looked sad. I wonder if he choosed to see her because it remind him of Reira… its so sad. ;_;

At the end of the chapter, we are back to the present where Shin and Hachi are looking at Nana’s picture. Hachi is crying. Then Shin found the picture of a bar… probably the one where Nana is singing.
I wonder why that photographer is sending her all those photos. I remember when he talked to his boss some chapter before, he said he didn’t find Nana while looking at her pictures he took. Why he lied? Why he send the pictures to Hachi?It is because of him, Nana got hurt and felt bad to making her so weak now? He probably want to help her if he send those pictures to Hachi.

Since the begining of the manga, Hachi is looking for Nana and she is now getting closer to meet her. Does it mean its close to the end of the manga?
