The first section of Seven is very intriguing. I am very interested in what’s going on with Nana and why he can’t remember anything before the day the store owner took him in. I like the fact that he acts all tough like he doesn’t need any one or that his feelings don’t get hurt but when he lets his guard down you start to see a very innocent, vulnerable side of him. It seems as if Nana has been through a lot, unfortunately or fortunately, for him he doesn’t remember much about his past. How strange it would be if I lost several years worth of my memories? How would that effect me and what type of person would I be today (hmm, food for thought)?
Mitsuha is another intriguing character. He just enters the story as a wandering man looking for his brother and ends up meeting Nana and sharing a bed with him (for now just sleeping together nothing physical). What are the chances of you arriving some place and being attracted to someone and later that night sharing a bed with him (that’s assuming you’re not a whore to begin with? Not to shabby if it’s really love and not simply lust) Mitsuha seems like a pretty cool, laid back guy. I’m not sure if he was upset to see Nana in bed with another guy (talk about awkward moment). He does drop off the spare keys to El the next day and is said to be leaving town. Was he really leaving town because it was time for him to move on or was it because he saw Nana in bed with that guy?
I really thought Mitsuha was gone forever (then again there’s still several pages left of the book) but thanks to El (who I thought was being mean by teasing Nana the day after he had sex with that guy but I guess there was a reason for his teasing). Nana gets a chance to see Mitsuha again and he reveals his feelings to him and after they both agree that neither one of them are replacements/flings the two of them decide to be together (so sweet).
Now, that leaves me wondering about the next section Within Plain View. Will the two of them make it as a couple, will Mitsuha find his brother and will Nana’s past be revealed to him and me? I don’t know. I’m off to read the next chapter to find out.
