The manga is super good, I didn't expect the movie to be as good. But everybody did their job perfectly. I could really feel it. It was good. =]

x_XJules, I agree that Aoi Miyazaki can't be replaced but if it must happen then it must I guess. I'll still watch it, maybe with a grudge. haha

I agree. But I guess they wanted to leave it open so they could make more of them, which is something I can't wait for.

Actually, the answer to that question is to point to the
Links of Interest and Asian Movie Torrent Links threads.

Remember, we've got a No movies policy, and while I know it happens, it's really just best to not ask here... Just check the links...

Thanks!

Hehe, k. Sorry I'm new and was guessing it was that forum.

When my brother told me that he downloaded and burned “Nana” for me, I thought, “okay…sure…I’ll watch it.” But, when he gave it to me and after the first few seconds of viewing it, I thought for sure it was going to be very boring! I thought the quality was bad and I thought the “bad” Nana was ugly and I hated the characters. I told myself I HAD to watch it because my brother burned it for me. After two painful hours of trying to watch “Nana,” I came up with the conclusion that the movie is not that bad. It was actually interesting to watch how two girls…with the same name and born on the same day became best friends! The only scenes I dreaded were the ones of Nana and her rock-star boyfriend, Ren, taking baths in the bath tub. I think “bad” Nana looked really pretty with long hair though…when she had a flashback of the first time she met Ren. The song, “Glamorous Sky” is really good…I have it on my computer

i'm confused. so there's NANA the anime, the movie, and the manga?

james_sama wrote:i'm confused. so there's NANA the anime, the movie, and the manga?

Yes.

The anime and movie are adaptations of the manga which is up to volume 15 or 16 now I think. The anime started during this year spring and is still ongoing, it pretty much follows the manga while the movie, due to time limitation, cut out many stuff.

Hm, NANA was really awesome, I liked the vocal songs too. I'm just too lazy to watch the anime and manga, lol.

Love the movie, anime, and the manga. I watched the movie after seeing a couple of the anime eps so I could compare. Really liked it. The music was good too ^.^. Did anyone else hear about a sequel to the NANA movie? o.o

^_^ Yeah I'd love to see a NANA drama, hope it airs soon.

Ehh...I didn't really like the movie - more like I couldn't get through it. The actors playing some of the characters seemed really off to me. Instead of being natural rock, they were really faking it. Maybe it's because I adore the manga too much that I disapprove of the movie. Characters were too skinny, not buff enough (or at all), and didn't portray that like of "strong-I-don't-need-you" look. Of course this is my opinion. Other people liked the movie.

Yeah the rock was a bit pop-ish, and the concerts were pretty fake as well. I haven't gotten into the manga as much as the anime or movie yet. I'm still searching for a good place to get some scans.

The Girugamesh cover of Glamorous Sky from the movie sounds a little more rockish, and in some aspects a little better. I just wish someone else did the vocals for that cover.

did the news already get posted that hachi (aoi miyazaki) has OFFICIALLY been replaced? they haven't decided on the replacement yet, but they definitely aren't using her.

edit: LoL, i'm talking about nana2

really? aw that sucks, I was hoping they'd stick with the original casting. Although I think they could change Shin's. I wonder why she's been replaced. o.o

kyou_enna wrote:really? aw that sucks, I was hoping they'd stick with the original casting. Although I think they could change Shin's. I wonder why she's been replaced. o.o

there was a nude scene and aoi miyazaki wouldn't do it and they refused to cut the scene out.. sad.. can't believe they actually replaced one of the nana's.

well, this seems as good a place as any to post this...

So! Does anybody know where I can find the Journey PV? It was included in the Special (Limited?) Edition of the Nana movie, but I live in North America, and so the region encoding is wrong so I can't buy it and watch it, and I can't find anyplace to dl it.

To those who reply to this: thanks a lot.
And to the mods (if I shouldn't be posting this): I'm sorry.

just wondering, do you know if they'll officially continue w/ nana 2?
cause last time i heard, they were still deciding if they should continue or not.

Anyone know when nana 2 might come out?

btw, for those you don't know...
Hachi is now being played by Yui Ichikawa and Shin is now being played by Hongo Kanata.
Here's some pictures! For those who might recognize him Hongo Kanata was in Moon Child. he played little Shou (adult Shou was played by Gackt)

Oh wow~ I think I'm going to miss Miyazaki Aoi but the new Shin looks a little more fitting than the previous Shin. In the previous movie he didn't look young enough to be 15.

They are coming out with a nana 2. That is so awesome!
Does anybody know when it is coming out?
I will put it on my calender!

December 9th? Not really a big fan of the actors or the story myself, but I would watch it with some friends. I had no idea who Mika Nakashima was before I saw this one...

great music in this movie, I have to admit!!! But I liked Kamikaze girls more

WOOT>.< NANA forever..yea.. i love the soundtrax..hehe....OLIVIA Lufkin was so cool!!..and mika nakashima..(nana oosaki)..hehe..i also liked hachi..but in two its gonna be a diff. hachiko..waaa!

Nana-nana.net has made a huge update of NANA 2. You can find a lot of new pictures, Yuna Ito's new MV for her song in NANA 2, Truth, and also A 2ND TEASER TRAILER.

Aww, I'm so much in love with the new Shin-chan, Hongo Kanata . He's so KAWAII!!!!

omg thanks for sharing!! I'll have to go check out the website again. i'm so excited for the second one!! at first i was semi-dreading it due to hachi being replaced but i'm over it now. LoL, i've always like yui so i'm sure she'll do just fine.
ahhhhh and shin is sooooo cute

You are SO right. The new Shin rocks!

i know. he looks exactly like shin! and he is also the one who played ryoma echizen in prince of tennis and i like so much in that movie.i can't wait to see him act in nana

i was a bit disappointed they change hachiko but i'm alright with the fact right now.

yes!!!>.<
shin is so HOT..!!!
hahaha/...and the last pic..he rocks..

Finally, an official trailer for NANA 2 is released. Visit nana-nana.net to download & then, enjoy yourself .

i love the new yuna ito song...

but they changed hachiko....my depression is deep, so deep....

no offense but i don't like yui ichikawa...she was really annoying in kurosagi, i wish it was still aoi miyazaki. and the actor playing ren, don't like him either, i prefer the one in the first movie. i wanna watch it because most of the old cast is back and of course hongo kanata would be playing shin, i think the role fits him perfectly. i saw him in yui's video (back when i still didn't know who he was) and i thought hmmm... this guy's got a potential, lol .

The old actors were so good and I think they looked better in the part, sucks they are changing it

I Love the new shin. He's so much better.

the new ren is sort of uggo pants like.

i'm actuall okay with the new Hachi, she's just as cute, so I'm okay with that

I too was disappointed with Aoi being replaced, but after seeing Yui in the H2 drama i don't mind! i think Aoi is my favorite girl, but Yui's got to be a close second

Nana is my favorite movie, and it's sad to see the changes in the cast, but still, it shows great character of Aoi to refuse to do the nude scenes! Yui was a gravure model before,right? so for her it doesn't matter

Does anyone know where i can dl the torrent of this movie? I really like the first one hope the second would be okay also.

So now the movie's aired... well it has been for awhile now just that I didn't think about it... wow I really wanna go to Japan right now!!
I was lucky enough to be in Japan when Nana (1) was released, so I saw it in the movies like 5 times... kind of expensive but totally worth it! I just love the story soooo much
I loved/love the manga, I adored the movie, I'm enjoying the anime more that I would have thought and I just got my boyfriend to buy me the PS2 game in Japan... I'm totally addicted to Nana!!
Anyway I agree with ppl that the new Shin is so much better of what I've sene so far, I mean I was totally dissapointed with the old one, he looked way to old
My fave is Nobu though, Hiroki Narimiya is just perfect for the role!! When I found out he was gonna be the one to play Nobu... I just new I'd love it!! ^_^
I was dissapointed too with the fact that they replaced Hachi... but after watching the trailers that are out I guess I can agree that the new girl is ok... as long as it's Mika Nakashima playing Oosaki Nana I'm ok

Tsana wrote:I was lucky enough to be in Japan when Nana (1) was released, so I saw it in the movies like 5 times... kind of expensive but totally worth it! I just love the story soooo much

Wow! That's an understatement. With each ticket @ ~$17 x 5 tickets, that's like $85 USD! Unless you get a student discount or something...

i like the new Shin actually, now he actually looks younger! the other guy seemed a bit too old for the part, and Shin is spose to be young.. well, he looked young in the manga, lol. don't care so much about Hachi being replaced, although i did like the actress from the first movie. we'll see how our second Hachi fares. i'm most depressed about Ren though. i like the first one! this second guy is just.... NOT Ren. he looks so.. unhot in that picture, haha.

Couldn't find a thread for this, so figured I'd start one here.

Meh, I thought this movie kinda sucked. While I understood the movie, I just don't see what the big hype was with it. Here were some major contributing factors:

1. Never read the manga.
2. Never saw the first one.
3. Japanese is severely limited (had to depend on Chinese subs).

Maybe I would have a bigger connection with this "epic", I'd enjoy it better. I don't know though because some movies I enjoyed without touching previous material (e.g., Densha Otoko, Azumi, Shinobi). I do know that the girls I went to see it with whom read the manga really thought the manga was much superior, while the girls who didn't read the manga got confused with the plot. Oh well, I guess Nana 1 was really good?

I haven't read the manga or seen the anime, either, but I was able to see the first Nana movie and understand it just fine.

Yes, the first movie is REALLY good. I haven't been able to see the second one yet because my town doesn't have a movie theater. I couldn't tell you if the second one isn't good or not. I'm waiting for it to hit the net (preferrably with subs).

Umm, I believe that I downloaded the first movie from J-Pop Suki. They put it up there b/c two of the actress are singers, too. You could probably also get it directly from Live-Evil's site if you want to give the first movie a chance.

hm, anybody know when it's gonna come out? i mean like in subs. o.o

animefreak wrote:hm, anybody know when it's gonna come out? i mean like in subs. o.o

The movie is still in theaters over here. I just checked Amazon Japan and the movie doesn't have a street date yet--and the movie at the top of the list is set for a May release.

I think that it will be a while. On top of that, add in the time for a fansubber to translate the movie.

It will most likely happen by the end of the year, if that's any sort of consolation prize.

I really like nana 1, im really excited for the second movie. its sad to hear that the old ren is replaced already. i kind of got used with him already. the new hachi is ok. not that different. the new shin is suited for the 15y/o character! he's cute!!

*sigh* i was half expecting some pirated movies and then some person subber it. x.x; oh well i guess i wont be watchign it soon then T.T

Animefreak, according to http://nana-nana.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1602, the release date will be March 22nd.

Maybe we'll have subs by the summer if we're lucky.<3

the original cast was way better for nana2! i was so disappointed to know that aio miyazaki was replaced. why was she replaced in the first place? rumors has it that she declined the part... (hmmmm.. is it because there would be more kissing scenes in it or love scenes? i dunno. i haven't seen the movie yet.) but she is way better than yui! ack...!

but... i like it better when Hongo Kanata was replaced to play as shin. he looks just like in the manga! which suits the role better... sigh. if they were thinking of redoing the cast they should have replaced Hiroki Narimiya who acted as nobu. he just doesn't suit the image. sigh...

i agree with the new shiN! he really looks cute in that movie. but with the new hachi... i really don't like the new one. anyways... can i know what movie or jap. series you used in your banner and avatar??? it looks so cute! ;) thanks for the info!

Ren... my Ren... why do you look so skinny now... T__________________T
I miss the old Ren...
But I guess I should give the new Ren a chance too.

Takumi makes up for the 'not so hot' new Ren

but that's how the real Ren looked like in the manga. the image he portrayed is way much better and he looks hotter than the original one... i think he was the guy in Prince of Tennis Live action.

I just found out and I had to tell you all, Nana 2 is up on youtube!!!! The raw version is up in full and the eng subs are up part way (about an hours worth to date). More should be being uploaded soon (of the english subs) though. Go check it out!! I'm going to go watch right now cause I'm the type of person who can't stay away from something once I've found out about it (even though it'd probably be better to wait til it's all up, right?) lol.

However, Anyone knows when it's subbed, ppl in this thread would be happy if you tell us.... hhee

yes yes please! when the movie is subbed please inform us in this thread =] i wanna know where to download the movie, someone know ? i wanna watch it on nana day =]

anybody doing anything on NANA DAY ? Of course its the obvious, 07-07-07

Anyhow, I thought Nana was ok, but Nana 2 was..... terrible!!!
They may be following the manga, but the way they filmed it and the storyline the film covered... yeesh....
No wonder Miyazaki declined to return.

i totally agree. nana 2 was awful ^^;;

nana 2 subs: http://www.divshare.com/download/1196498-d88 (credit to "it's a bittersweet thing" website: bittersweet-bun.livejournal.com)

sorry but the subs that bittersweet has is kinda funky (no offense). I found better ones on kloofy.

about nana2: i don't think it was terrible. the first was obviously WAY better but the second was ok. I've never read the manga or seen the anime so the storyline and stuff is all new to me. so is there gonna be a NANA 3?

nana 2 had a sex scene in it and Ichikawa Yui already appeared in dramas that exposed her body so she was fine doing it.

i wanna watch the 2nd movie as well but i dont feel like downloading it.

100% the same. it was so retarded....is the manga REALLY the same?
this movie took everything i liked about the first, chewed it up, ruined it forever, and left no way for it to be fixed. its got a permanet "im pretending this doesnt exist and sticking with the first movie"

Nana 2 english hardsubbed has been added here http://clubbox.co.kr/b10nary Grab it while you can!

Saw Nana 2 just the other day (because I'm so slow...) and was pretty much disappointed. It was okay really. Just not great or anything.

I LIKED THE FIRST HACHI T____T; She looked cute. >O I was going wtf @ second one. At least we get a proper Shin this time. (The chibi from PoT LA! XDD) I seriously didn't like the other one (I like his L...but...>>). I thought this Ren was alright. I can't remember much though, still not the Ren I had in my mind. First Ren looked odd to me.

Maybe I should watch it properly...both together...

i loved the first NANA so much! it was one of the greatest movies i have ever seen. the second one was not so good. the casting really bothered me. i mean, i was pretty much able to put the first hachi's face on the second one, so she wasn't a very big deal, and i was ddissapointed that there was a new shin, but he was pretty good so it didn't really bother me. It was troublesome with Ren, though. to me, he wasn't ren anymore. he was Oscar M Himejima. i'm sure Kyo Nobuo is a good actor and all, but at serious parts of the film, i'd have a Hana Kimi flashback and remember Oscar in drag or acting possessed. it really took away from it for me, at least.
i totally love the soundtrack to both of them, though.

-the way the bass player pushes off hachi cause its too soon (and the way hachi pursues him so soon
-hachi basically allowing tegumi to treat her like crap, and that being the resolution. "when he cheats, make him pay!" wtf?

i couldn't help but feel your pain and disappointment.. lolz.. i agree with you. i didn't even get to watch the whole Nana2 it was just going straight down the drain. (i just like the actor who played as sinichi-except for him the original cast was great already) what i can tell you though is that the manga is way better that this... the 1st Nana movie was not clashing TOO much from the manga... im not sure about the 2nd...

i've watched nana and after that.... when i heard there would be the sequel, i'm really happy and excited...... but then.. i was dissapointed when i knew that the actrees was changed..... i've got nana 2 for longtime, but i don't feel like i'm excited anymore to watch it....
