Hey! In all my talking about Nana, I forgot that I actually read this volume!
And to be honest, I briefly considered giving up the series after this one. For some reason, Yazawa abandoned the unique storyline and characters she'd been developing up until this point in favor for Stock Shoujo Contrived Plot Points, and the whole narrative really lost steam. Two very uninteresting new characters are introduced: single women! In a building with two single, heartbroken men! What a coincidence! Also, O...more

his is my second favourite Japanese manga and is going on forever. This is the first edition that’s come out in print before I’ve seen everything happen in the anime so it was quite exciting for me to not know what was happening. It’s all about two girls called NANA and two rival bands, the members of which are all connected. Ai Yazawa’s other translated manga Paradise Kiss is even awesomer, and only 5 books long, so you could try that first!
:)
This book was kind of just filler space in the series, setting up things for Nana and Hachi and their romantic relationships. Not much new happened, and nothing noteworthy so if you want to read the entire series then it doesn't matter if you read this one. It's still good and wonderfully drawn, though.
