Bokura ga Ita Episode 11

How I wish i can do that to Yano right now. I so want to tear him to pieces and run him through a train or something.

Why is Yano such a prick? The fact that I watched this episode makes my freaking blood boil. It is very seldom that I totally, utterly hate a character for who he is, but Yano does earn the undisputable shitty boyfriend prize of all time. I mean, Nana is like a pretty flower stuck in some cow dung. Cow dung generally tends to give fertilizer to the flower, but this breed of Yano cow dung is contaminated and will eat up the flower alive.

Anyway, this episode seems to be Yamamoto’s revenge and the revealing of the truth to Nana. How will Nana react? Will Takeuchi make a move? Will Yano finally be clean of his sins (NEVER FOR MY PERSONAL OPINION, HE CAN ROT IN HELL!). I am so bored with studying that I had to sneak in some writing before I go back to mugging…

So, we continue with the last week’s ending scenes, where Yamamoto came over to Yano’s house, asking whether he wanted to know why Nana, her sister was in the same car as Kagawa.

Episode summary

It was back to two years ago.

The day that the ex (aka Nana, Yamamoto’s sister and will thereby be refered as “ex”) died, Yano and her seemed to have a quarrel. Yamamoto was with her sister as the ex was busy checking her phone, waiting for a text or call from Yano. The ex looked pretty down as she was hoping that Yano would call to apologise. As they walked around the shopping complex, Kagawa went by in his car. He invited the ex for a ride, only to have a cold glare as the ex was about to walk off with Yamamoto. However, Kagawa simply said “happy birthday”. July 29th, or that day, was the birthday of the ex.

Back to present time, Yano started being sarcastic on the whole issue and questioned why Yamamoto was bringing all this up. He also laughed how stupid it was that someone said happy birthday to her and the ex immediately entered the car. Yamamoto then asked Yano whether he had never regretted about not saying sorry. Yamamoto had in fact checked the mobile phone of the ex after she died, and realised that Yano had gave a phonecall in the afternoon, probably to ask for forgiveness. It was too late though, since a few minutes, the car crashed.

Nana then came out, wanting to hear what it was all about. However, she was shoved away by Yano, telling her that it had nothing to do with Nana at all as he closed the door. Nana could not hear the conversations that went on between Yano and Yamamoto now. He then questioned the reason why Yamamoto was here trying to cause trouble. However, Yamamoto said she simply wanted to say it to clarify things and said that Yano was cold blooded for all the things he had done.

Even though her sister’s sins would never disappear even after her death, Yano had also committed a great sin. We now knew from the next flashback that he did steal Yamamoto’s virginity and had betrayed both the ex and Yamamoto at the same time. In fact, after he had sex with Yamamoto, he regretted it because he had never forgotten about the ex. With that, Yamamoto left him slightly better (with great sarcasm) with the message that the ex had betrayed him first and that the ex had exchanged calls with Kagawa all the time in the summer.

Nana finally came out, asking whether Yamamoto had left. She was clearly shaken by locked out from hearing anything as she walked out of Yano’s house, ignoring the response of Yano. Yano chased up with Nana as he tapped his shoulders, only for Nana to swing her bag right at Yano, hitting him right on his face. We see Takeuchi in the far end at the scene, as he observed the disintegration of feelings between Nana and Yano. Nana started to ask why she was like an outsider and why Yano was hiding things from her.

Yano tried to deny it (we all know it’s BS) and Nana said that Yano had betrayed her. Yano then said that was not betraying and betraying meant that you walk, stomp and tear apart the person you care about and Yano said he had never done that to Nana. Yano was by now hurting Nana as he gripped her very hard on the wrist. He then asked something really strong.

“Did I toss you away?”

Nana could not answer. Yano simply told Nana to go home by herself as Nana felt that cold pain in her heart.

Back at home, Nana wondered about the words that Yano said and started to feel totally horrible. She could not believe that Yano could speak such harsh words and she wondered how she could get to his heart. Her love seemed to be not enough for him to trust her at all. The scene now changed to Takeuchi and Yano, with Takeuchi telling Yano to tell Nana everything. He said he did not want to as Nana would definitely cry. Takeuchi told him that Yano regretted doing that thing with Yamamoto and he still tried to deny it, saying that it was just something problematic.

The next day at class, Nana found it hard to speak to Yano as it was lunch break. Mizu came over to ask Nana to play dodgeball but she had to take care of the class as she was the daily helper. Everyone, Yano and Yamamoto, seemed to be pretending that nothing happened at all. Yano then came over to return the english textbook and had done the translation homework for Nana. Nana realized that after all this, she still could not hate Yano.

Yano really made an effort and even drew some awful drawings to cheer her up in her textbook. She was clearly touched as she told Yano that she loved him a lot and that was why she did not want to be deceived. She wanted him to tell him the truth as he went about joking and giving her three choices. She was amused but Yano then started on three other more disturbing choices. She was annoyed as Yano seemingly was not taking her seriously until he said the third choice.

“Yamamoto and me had sex.”

Nana at first thought he was joking and said that even for a joke, it was sick. He agreed that it was .Nana finally realized that he was speaking the truth as she cried uncontrollably…

Yano simply sat there, regretting.

Thoughts

Very dramatic episode. We finally see Yano revealing the whole truth to Nana. He should have done so and come clean about the whole issue. That still makes me hate him because he is so warped with such a young mind. I mean, you screw your ex and then as revenge, you screw your ex’s younger sister and steal her virginity? What the hell, man, your mind is in the gutter. Well, i have enough hate on Yano in this post, so i will talk about Nana.

I don’t think Takeuchi is doing everything right now. He is being too passive about it, especially when the girl that he likes is hurting so badly. I think he ought to make a more active role in this situation and make a run at Nana. I am sure with his gentleman behavior and suave looks, he can probably charm Nana. However, Nana is way too deep in love with Yano, even though Yano had done so many atrocious things to her.

The preview seems to have Nana giving up on the relationship. Of course, I do not think it will happen (since its 26 episodes) but let me dream, all right? Nana, enough of Yano already, find someone better. Anyone else is better than Yano.

Roar!

Onwards to next episode!
