I think that JSF actions can be equalled to cutting off someone's legs and then giving them a pair of dance shoes and asking to dance ballet.
I'm just devastated by the whole thing... I doubt Nobu will ever get back to the physical and mental state that he was before. I think that if the justice loving misters policemen mercifully shot him that night and hid the body (easy on a totally empty street, and who would have suspected policemen?), it would ultimately be much happier outcome for Nobunari.
I don't even know what to wish for him that would have even a small chance of coming true. "May he rest in peace" is somehow the only phrase that comes to my mind...
