Nami is certainly a very tradition-conscious, virtuous woman who always exudes great kindness and courtesy, and even after all these years has not forgotten her oath with Musashi; this obligation will probably be even more serious today than it was 15 years ago. It is not to say, however, that she feels obliged to stay with Musashi and always be there for him solely because of tradition, because there is probably not the slightest doubt that Nami loves him beyond measure. If this were not the case, she would never have given him her virginity, reacting as she did knowing her father was out. But her friendship with Anzu, Suzaku, and Mayuki means a lot to her, so in this respect, although they really mean something, she also immediately, on the night together with Musashi, and in the same breath, made it clear that she has no problem with it when her friends pursue him.
