I really hate the ending


I actually read this manga but I got really uncomfortable feeling after reading. I did managed to watch the movie but it's getting worse.
I don't get the ending at all. I mean Tanishi didn't get anything. He lose the girl, and lost the fight. What is the meaning of this "Boys on the run"??

It doesn't have to end well. Not sure of the title, though. Maybe he's on the run from what he really wants or he's in the run chasing something, either sex or at girl. This story does leave me feeling bad, in a good way.

Yeah, I agree that it doesn't have to end well. I managed to read the manga to the end. The ending is much much better than the movies. There should be part 2 or something because the movie is just half a series.

Actually, in Manga he met a girl who is a boxing trainer. Then he joined the boxing gym, fell in love with this girl.
He ended up in jail though, trying to protect her nephew. After ten years, he is free and back with this girl. Happy Ending ^^

It is a sad ending, in the movie it doesn't make sense, as she seems totally willing to stay and give him a second chance. But he's practically grieving over the tiniest of situations to the point that he pushes her away onto the train. It's frustrating, because he brought everything on himself, due to his inexperience and awkwardness. He had the opportunity to not only sleep with her, but become her man, though he blew it because he was emotionally a wreck.

Despite the sad ending, I wasn't depressed or down afterward, but instead sort of grateful I'm not this pathetic. I'm not even a player by any standards, but he had ample opportunity, and I feel like its sort of a reflection of my past self at a very young age. Thing is, he could have had her, but didn't take her at the ending. Ah well, this tale mirrors reality all too well, leaving you confused, unsatisfied yet appreciative.

So do i ...although it has some good parts in the film but the ending really blows everything away....it makes no sense and he is still a loser as always...
