Why the fuck would you grab a knife?, HEAT OF THE MOMENT...believe me I had someone try to stab me ones and in the panic I grabbed the knife and he pulled...I still have the scar in the palm of my hand. But still better then being stabbed though! :D
@Duribu You do know how it is in manga's right? Her parents are loaded so they made her take self defense lessons so she can protect herself. It's like you haven't read a lot of manga's... :p
Also...IT'S A MANGA. If you are going to find that odd..then..ehm..ugh nevermind. -_-
Seems like most of the commenters haven't ever read a Kodama Naoko manga before. This is standard Kodama work. Though it will usually end well after I don't know how much drama and angst :D
If you really hate this I would recommend not waisting your time here and read something fluffy. :)
