MayanEcho Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 BTS getting ready for new school scene. The practice paid off. 😆 Meme can now braid hair better and faster. This is one of the warm Natsu-Umi scenes in Ep11, when he braids and instructs his daughter of the key he kept in her bag because she's coming from school first before he returns from work. Actual scene 🙂 Spoiler Soo... hurtful as Ep11 was, Ken Murase hints it will be an HE in an interview... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayanEcho Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 College student Natsu (Ep11) He looks very handsome in this screen grab, but as a viewer of the drama, this scene is one of the most enraging and painful to watch. There was no dialogue for him. His eyes, expressions, and body movements did the talking. He didn't have to say anything. Back in Ep01, Natsu was waiting outside for Mizuki who was in the medical facility for her OB-GYNE appointment and pregnancy "termination". The scene in Ep11 was before Mizuki met her doctor in Ep01. How she dismissively and rudely spoke to Natsu might as well be the premise on how she will later wreak havoc in Natsu's life several times over. By now it's understood that because of what she said and wanted, Natsu was outside, waiting for hours, until she's done with the procedure. She refused to let her accompany her, and when she changed her mind, it made it easer to hide it from him. Then she starts lying to him about how she still had to pay even after "given pain", gaslighting him into believing the pregnancy was terminated. She'd also tell him many hurtful lies when she broke up with him. Mizuki, who decided to conceal from Natsu that she would go ahead with the pregnancy and birth their child, would further wrong him by telling Umi about her father, yet not introduce their daughter to him even when she was dying. He had to find out himself in a very surreal way, then be blamed again and again that he wasn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks just like he did in Silent Just finished ep 11- I was surprised Mizuki was so blunt when she told Umi that she was dying. There's no way to sugar coat it. But one usually says, something like I'll always be here in your heart. Isn't way too young to walk home alone? Oh boy, Umi is asking tough questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt bad for Natsu, who somehow found a way for Mizuki to be always there when he had that memorial necklace and pendant made for Umi. 12 hours ago, CarolynH said: Isn't way too young to walk home alone? In Japan and some other places it's common for the kids to walk home, even use their transpo system while quite young. 12 hours ago, CarolynH said: Umi is asking tough questions. Sigh. It's really unfair for both Umi and Natsu. Why did Mizuki expect Umi that she'll want to live contentedly with someone she never saw before, even if she heard of him countless times, and why did Mizuki not inform Natsu herself if she expected him to step up as Umi's parent after she dies? ▪︎○▪︎○▪︎○▪︎○▪︎○▪︎○▪︎○▪︎ Meme and Sena 😍 Hoping that they'll have future projects together again. 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayanEcho Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 A day before finalé, presenting Umi Tsukioka and Yayoi Momose, who became good friends that do girl things together, and are confidants to each other. Perhaps not goodbye, but see you around? Izumiya Sena in UNH spin-off, 「Oyako Wa Michi Nakaba」from 17:30 Sep 23. Excerpt from X post: "The story focuses on Umi, the daughter of the main character, Natsu Tsukioka, and his former girlfriend, Mizuki Nagumo. "One holiday afternoon, Umi spends time with the daughter of Fujii, Natsu's boss. The film depicts Umi's growth towards the future as she learns about a new form of family and the nature of love." 【W/DeepL translate】 This new spin-off episode seems to hint of a good ending for Natsu and Umi in the main story. 🤞 Twelve script booklets of the 12 episodes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
