nnn

it was explained with words but they showed us why 😢 she just felt like it will be a burden for him
she knew that if she had the kid with him, (as he is nice)he would completely change his life just thinking of her and the kid. she didn’t wanted to take away from him his « decisions » /(his right to choose = as we saw in the last episode she said that giving to a child the right to choose is loving them it’s the same here for natsu, it’s just how she loved him, the same reason as why she didn’t date tsuno 😢😢)
I feel like nobody get that… so you might disagree with me… 🥲

grands-parents house is set to be outside of tokyo (quite far in the countryside somewhere in kanto), he considered that but had to quit his job for that and then relised that his income is what will be good for umi that’s why he asked her to choose.
But why he didn’t asked for help for his parents and the grandparents at first? I think that he felt guilty that mizuki raised her all alone and therefore wanted to do everything by himself (and also there his own experience too, he was raised by his mom alone for several years and was suffering so I think there might be some feelings because of that too🥲)
but it changed it the last episode 😄 he chose to ask for help as mizuki said, he can’t raise a child alone, so now they’re like all a big family☺️

in japan they make kids go to a school pretty close to the home usually (I’m not sure for everyone) but I know they put them in the same area and it’s quite safe for kids comparing to other places in the world (but yeah of course, there is always a risk)
have you watched the show on netflix « old enough » ? it shows really well that side of japanese culture if you are interested 😁

oh okay! yeah I also got confused at time with the flashbacks🤣
and no I don’t recall seeing a flashback other than that 😄
oh I see! from what we saw no she didn’t warn them 🤔😄💭

in the last episode ? she fed them and put sleeping pills, she didn’t killed them😄
however she killed her bio father ( she put peanut powder in the alcohol drink he drunk, which he is allergic to)
she first planned to put them to sleep and then kill her bio father and then kill herself too, but the police arrived just in time to save her life

that’s just because she felt guilty towards him and su yeon because of the fire that she put when she was little
but yeah that wasn’t very clear…

yeah me too…😢😢 I wished it would resonate the same to more people but yeah what can we do…😞

I really you didn’t get the message of the last episode and this hole drama😢😢
1. she told him about him= he was existing in her , if she hadn’t told her, that would make him not exist at all in her life! it was pretty said clearly…

2.everyone makes mistakes, this drama is intended to be realistic and shows humans as they are…

whatever, I’m sorry but I won’t reply if you reply again like that I don’t want to debate I really don’t like that…

oh yeah you might be right🥺🥺

yes I agree🥺🥺
but what I don’t understand is why some people are insulting the characters and the screenwriter just because it is a very realistic drama…🥲 there is nothing wrong with that😢😢

Ichiban suki na hana, and, Unmet☺️✨

oh and I think the little boy growing up in the MV that’s him as well🥹

yoroshi🤔💭no sorry I donmt know…🥲
but are you referring to 依与吏さん？　(shimizu iyori-san) he is the back number vocalist and he is the one that makes the songs☺️

oh thank you~🥹

yes exactly! 🥲🥲
plus there is a lot if things that we can’t know if we don’t experience it😢😢
and I love the message that yayoi said in the last episode ! that’s really what I think when i read those hate comments that didn’t get anything…😅

And thz last part my favorite actually 🥹🥹
it shows the message of the entire drama🥹✨
→ « masshiro na kimi no mirai wo »= your life which is all white (like a canvas)
« masshiro na mama »= means it’s okay that it is white because in the next line
«  kimi ga iro ga nureru youni » so that you can fill it put with colors = it means that the child (umi) can « choose » her «  colors » = make her decisions herself and live her life like she wants which actually show like in the drama that this the love of a parent to the child🥹🥹✨

and then the very last part
« but if one day you find someone who you want to make happy » (= when you(child) become an adult)
« waratte unazuketa to shitara » if you smile and nod = just do something normal, just be with them , « soredemo juubun ka to omou » it will be just alright
it’s the feelings of a parent toward his child when they grow up and have to live their life 😁

what you translated as “though i never asked this of you…” part is actually (in my opinion) the dad saying that he was protected by his parents though he never asked for it (= was loved by his parents) and the next line to it actually means that if he is in that position (as a parent) he is not sure doing the same as his , it shows in my opinion natsu’s feelings being overwhelmed by the pressure of becoming a parent overnight, but then the next line says « kimi ni wa yasashiku are to negai inoru » I wish (that I « the dad » here natsu ) will be kind to you(umi)

the next part that you translated as «  maybe we are not the perfect match…etc » actually really show in my opinion Natsu’s feelings , and I think all the dads and moms feeling when they first have a child.
the first and 2nd lines « niatte nanka inakute, nani kamo tarinai noni » = I don’t fit to be a parent, I don’t have anything (any qualities to fit)
the third « nagedashi kata mo wakanakute »= i don’t know how to raise a child
and the last = but I’m here = even if He knows that he has a lot of lacking, and might not be the best parent, but he wants to be here for her🥹🥹


the next part « the rainbow drawn… »
→actually it’s an image, the rainbow drawn in a mache paper which isn’t flat, there is like bumps in it = something that isn’t perfect = I want to give you something even if that isn’t something’s perfect, then I will maybe have more confidence in myself being a parent.

and then the next part the last page of a child’s book→
can be interpreted as the last page of someone’s life (and we can imagine the scene of a parent reading a book to the child ) and screaming all and all  « whose life’s is this » can be interpreted as natsu’s feelings towards mizuki’s death🥲 but also his own life💭

I think that shows when a child (here umi) point her finger to the sky, the clouds 😁
I’ve explained more in my comment bellow :)

In the first paragraphs you added I in the translation (I’m not saying that it’s wrong, I just want to show the meaning behind that part that’s all☺️)
but that part is like the parent, here natsu talking about death to the child(umi) (like here umi lost mizuki)

the chorus means (my personal interpretation)
the child is tracing with her fingers towards clouds, which is really far away from the dad and he can’t reach her which means like umi’s emotions and feelings that she have since she lost her mom ( I can also be interpreted as childs minds can’t be understood by adults)
and the second line means that even if there are words to say to her, he can’t find the appropriate right words

like this drama it can be interpreted differently.
in this song actually (and in the Japanese language generally)they aren’t using pronouns besides “i” and “you” However, back number wrote this song especially for the drama and he said that he wrote about a dad’s point of view I think that “i “ = the dad= natsu and you = child= umi😄

yes exactly!!😭
nobody is wrong and even in ichiban suki na hana it was showed that someone’s “right” could be someone else’s “wrong”, someone’s “garbage” could be someone else’s “precious” thing
and As you said in Silent too the message that everyone is human and it’s nobody’s fault was conveyed 😢😢
Exactly!! they just need to listen to them🥹
