I’m a sucker for romance, but I hate the cheesy stuff you usually see in typical shoujo anime. One of the things I like to see the most in anime is how they portray relationships. This is my first review, so please don't be hard on me )
It tells us a lot about life, it's hardships and also teaches us an important lesson about the mistakes, that we shouldn't make. Overall, Nana is a must-see position for shoujo-fans. Nothing much to add here: the music in Nana is brilliant. Olivia Lufkin and Anna Tsuchiya fit the characters perfectly. The openings and endings were songs by the 2 fictional bands in the show, witch was a brilliant idea imo. Nana has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard. That's in order to underline the mood of certain moments, mainly in room 707. There were lots of details regarding shadows and highlights. Other that that I think the art matched the story pretty well. It annoys me how all the characters are so thin and tall. Yazawa-sensei gives her characters a big imagination (especially Hachi) But the world they live in is just like ours.Īs for the art, it wasn't that impressive. Another good thing about the story is that it exposes the hard, cruel reality, which has no happy endings and pure loves. Ai Yazawa worked really hard on it, and did her best to create a realistic world so that the reader can almost become part of it and experience it emotionaly.Įven though the plot is a typical shoujo tearjerker (with a bit of music) it has that magical something that makes you cheer unconsciously for some characters and experience emotionally some events almost as strongly as the characters themselves. The story is also one of Nana's strong points. Mainly because she has no ideals or dreams (except getting married witch is pretty boring compared to the rest of the characters). One thing I didn't like though is Hachi's personality. without the conventional tsundere, moe or annoying childhood friend. This is proof that you can make a good anime One of the best things about "Nana" are the characters - we can actually see the reflection of ourselves in some of them and believe, that someone like that can really exist. With colourful, realistic characters, breathtaking events and just a pinch of music she creates a world in witch every girl can forget about reality and fall into the embrace of romantic fantasies. Ai Yazawa is probably the most convincing shoujo manga writer ever. These words are the introduction of the beautiful world of "Nana". As they grow closer, the two strive to support one another amid their struggles to forge a future for themselves. Shortly after they arrive in Tokyo, the girls cross paths again due to an unexpected coincidence that ultimately leads them to live under the same roof. Though heartbroken, Nana bravely looks forward and travels to the capital with the ambition of becoming a recognized artist. Meanwhile, her namesake is a solitary punk vocalist whose impassioned romance with her band's bassist, Ren Honjou, comes to a sudden end. Without letting herself be dismayed by Shouji's decision to study in Tokyo, Nana works hard to earn enough money and follow him there. The former has a cheerful and friendly nature, but her naivety has steered her romantic life astray until she meets her dependable boyfriend-Shouji Endo.
With their hearts set on going to Tokyo, Nana Komatsu dreams about blissful love, while Nana Osaki aims for a successful music career. Departing from their respective hometowns, two young women with identical names are brought together in their pursuit of new beginnings.
