It's got me now...

For the first time since starting this drama I can say I'm fully invested. I almost dropped it several times as it started off very slow and boring for me. But this episode restored my faith. It was a sad moment for our male lead, but also beautiful because of the way Natsui stood by him when everyone else abandoned him. I'm glad she didn't let him deter her from going with him with his usual false bravado bullshit. Really sweet scene with them, I must say. Loved every moment of it! :)

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with Bladey below, Asahina doesn't deserve one bit of sympathy! He's a snake who plotted to bring down Hyuga in the most despicable of ways. He wanted to humiliate the man in every way possible. Even if he felt inferior and in Hyuga's shadow, even if Hyuga is somewhat of a bastard, his actions are still unwarranted & will garner him no sympathy from me, ever. Of anyone on the planet Hyuga loved him & trusted him the most. And yet he's been waiting for this moment bring him down. That's just wicked. It's not just business, it's personal. He secretly hated and has been jealous of Hyuga & his brilliance all this time. For that reason alone I hope Hyuga starts a new bigger, better company and crush him like the termite that he is.

Poor Man, Rich Woman

All I could do was clench my fists and glare at the screen. Asahina was crushing him and Hyuga just pitifully raged at his former employees.

But wth man, you can't push her away anymore! Go Natsui~! You're his only source of strength now, he needs you but the man's so thick he doesn't knows what he wants!

Best Episode so far!!! 100/10!

I really enjoyed the previous episode but this one I love even more!!! It had so many emotions in it! I felt so sorry for Toru when he was having that break-down at the "farewell party"! I know that Asahina has his reasons but he went too far! He didn't just try to upstage Toru, he tried to take away everything he had and most of all his pride and dignity! And he didn't even achieve it out of his own strength or talents but resorted to cheating and dirty tricks! The ending was THE best ending to an episode I have ever seen! Toru and Makoto make a wonderful couple, she was the only thing Asahina couldn't take away from him (which as you could see really left an impact on him)! The actors were amazing in this one (as they've been throughout the entire series so far), my three favourite scenes were a) when Makoto told Asahina that she loved Toru, b) when she jumped in fron of Toru's motorbike and c) when the two of them drove off together!^^ I was really sad and disappointed at first when Ogawa, Hosoki and Yasuoka declared they weren't coming with Toru after all (although to be fair I can understand that they'll have to think about their own future) but I guess in the end it made Makoto's decision to be the only one by his side even more touching! Needless to say, I can't wait how the story will continue!

Lovely ending but more emapthy for poor hated Asahina

Huyga and Sawaki are one of the mos adorable j-romance couples I've seen in a while. However, what's with this hate on Asahina? He clearly has his own internal turmoils and demons and he has regrets that he is losing them both. He has little self confidence, too.

I think he is troubled and hurt by something, maybe he feels inferior and underappreciated and unnoticed. He's a nice guy, just doesn't want to be Huga's shadow all the time, and everyone is always about Hyuga, Huyga. He tries to give himself some self-respect. I am not condoning the way he's doing it- and I definitely don't like his methods, but honestly, I don't it's easy for him either.

No one is even trying to understand him.

Honestly, this man needs more empathy. I am sure that by the end of this drama things will work out for the two friends as well. At least I'd like to hope so.

Why?

Did Asahina do it because of Makoto? Was she the final straw? did he think if Hyuga had nothing left she would choose him? and he finally wouldn't be second fiddle?...idk

Next episode should be great :D

Die!!!! Asahina die!!!

Seriously??!!! What kind of person slowly kills other another person like this... this person has suffered and toiled along side with you... I'm at a loss.

Anyway, Makoto DID it, she made the right decision.

Fully Invested

I'm completely and utterly emotionally invested in this drama. This was, quite possibly, one of the best episodes of the series so far. Asahina's betrayal is truly felt in this episode. By that I mean that Hyuga showed that hurt, inwardly and outwardly. The contours of Oguri Shun's face as he portrays Hyuga's emotions is fascinating. That ending--I know that the hurt isn't over, but I was so encouraged by Makoto in the end. This drama is just great!

bad Asahina

Poor Toru Hyuga, Asahina didn't leave anything to him. Why he really hates Hyuga, his fellow. Jealous? It make me wonder what bad thing people can do because of jealousy.

But It cheers me up that Makoto wants to be with Hyuga.

Best episode to date. Asahina is a piece of sh*t

This episode hurt so badly. Watching even more and more people abandon Hyuga. Asahina is just crushing him so badly that it hurts. If I was his sister, I'd use one of those wine bottles instead of just a measly slap. Seriously, how can someones partner be that evil? If it was about money, fine, he's addicted to money and wants all of it, but this. This seems more personal than that.

Mixed Emotions!

I don't know what to say. Poor Hyuga, Asahina took everything away from him!The company and now his Personal File Project too? It's so sad that Yasuoka decided to not follow him :( Well then again they do have to work for their family. I'm happy Natsui decided to follow Hyuga. Let's hope they can re build their own little project and beat Asahina. The preview is killing me. An almost kiss or kiss in the next ep? Yay! :D I'm loving the main song called Hikari E by Miwa it's so catchy!

Go Makoto!

I LOVED this episode. We got to see Makoto finally grow some balls and follow her heart when Toru needed her the most. I grow very tired of weak female stereotypes in dramas and was surprised to see her finally doing something about her feelings for him. I feel like all the characters' roles shifted in a believable way, making the drama that much more interesting for me. (This was a huge problem for me in "Big" because the characters don't develop quick enough and spend a lot of time never really learning anything. I couldn't even finish the finale b/c I really didn't feel myself rooting for anyone.) I can't wait to get to episode 9!! (o>?

thoughts... thoughts...

For the first time since I have been watching a drama, I think, they have come up with a wrong name for it... I think it should have been called Rich Woman Poor Man... I think Makoto is the richest girl ever, I adore her character so much, while in the character of Toru, I see that he has no connection to any of the things he has owned so far, though the company was like the child he gave birth to, though Asahina was there for him thoughout his whole professional life, I think he didn't appreciate all that to the fullest, I am thinking of Asahina's doings as a test for Toru, for him to realize how everything is precious and shouldn't be treated with so much risk involved, that is why, though, I adore Toru too, his character is poor... and I hope Makoto has been a great influence on him...

Ahhhhhh

This episode was so good almost all the time I was yelling one time from being happy another for being angry :)
I can't understand Asahina and I don't get how someone can be so cruel but I ques in every dram we have to have a valian.
But this is the episode in which I loved Makoto the most she was so cute and resolute and sure of herself I'm proud of her :)
I can't wait for the next episode since the preview was so good and exiting :)

Coming back!

Really, I just hope he will really have a chance to come back.
This episode was just awsome. Maybe the best so far. I still can't believe Asahina can get any worse. My heart got smaller seeing Hyuga being crushed by him, the person he trusted the most was planning his fall behind his back. Even the way Ogawa, Hosoki and Yasuoka were left after finding that Hyuga was totally dispossessed of everything...
One optimistic thing in this episode was how Natsui was finally able to speak up and frankly choose her path.
In the last episode I think I did not really like the way the camera went up and down while they were walking, but this time I think that the way the picture trembled during Toru's desperate speech was totally awsome. Like the viewer was also trembling and crying (which was actually true).
And now I'm so eager to see the next episode. I was getting sick of waiting more than the other times. I don't think I can wait a week now..>_
