But well, subbers are never 100% correct.

“Kizuna” normally is translated as “bond” or “bonds”, meaning the connection between people. “Shackles” can mean the same, but…

So, think of next ep’s title as “bonds”, and this way, the title isn’t that trouble-making. It is making more sense this way, considering the contents of the last episode and the fact that this will be the end.

About next episode: At first, when watching the preview, I thought that she watched something frightening in that room thus causing her to run out of that room with that afraid look of hers.
Connected to this thesis, I was wondering about
-whose room it is
-why Nanaka is wandering around in the middle of the night
-the time: Is it really night?
By reading your blog I also thought about if Nanaka could possibly have caused the fire somehow. And what she really saw in that room is still unclear…

While watching the preview closely and thinking logically, I tried to find an answer to these questions.
-I found out that the room has to be either a bathroom or a bedroom since it’s situated on the upper floor, but it’s more probable to be bedroom. But it can’t be Nanaka’s room since moments later she is jumping out of her room with the violin and she wouldn’t enter the room she was running out of being that afraid.
-to connect the next two questions: Let’s consider it’s still evening and not in the middle of the night and the reason Nanaka’s wandering around the house because she is just about to go to sleep. If this were the case then there wouldn’t be a reason for her to enter someone else’s room. There shouldn’t be anyone in there anyways.
So it has to be th middle of night after all. The reason for her to wander around is either because she couldn’t sleep or had a nightmare or whatever. When thinking closely, the reason isn’t that important anyways. Unlike the fact that she IS wandering around at night. So we come to the question if she could possibly have caused the fire:
-Since she is wandering around at night and has been entering somone else’s room, she probably hasn’t gone downstairs which is why she can’t have left a burning candle there.
When running out of the room she didn’t have anything in her hands so she couldn’t have dropped something that caused the fire.
And since you normally don’t place dangerous things close to edges, there probably wasn’t anything burning placed near the stairs.
So she can’t have caused the fire from downstairs.

Just the question what she has seen left…
You think that Nanaka dicovered some relationship. But if this were the case, she would have just looked surprised or slightly shocked, but not as afraid as that. Also, if it really were a relationship between her mother and the teacher and she (Nanaka) was afraid of them for some reason, then they both shouldn’t have died in the fire.
So she should have seen something different, I still think of it being threatening and/or frightening. I also think that all the people in the house should have been asleep when the fire spread since it is in the middle of the night, and Nanaka coincidentally was awake and noticed the fire early enough to escape.

It has to be the uncle…he has a mullet!

The guy with the mullet is always the criminal!
