NANA
Based on the popular manga by Ai Yazawa, NANA follows the adventures of two girls both named Nana. While they share the same name, they couldn't be more different. Nana "Hachi" Komatsu follows her boyfriend to Tokyo in the hopes of making a new start, while Nana Osaki, who arrives in the city at the same time, is a punk rock beauty who has the ambition of making it big in the world of rock and roll. Although these two young women come from different backgrounds, they quickly become best friends while chasing their happiness and dreams.
Main Cast Hachi: Aoi Miyazaki Nana: Mika Nakashima Ren: Ryuhei Matsuda Takumi: Tetsuji Tamayama Shin: Ken'ichi Matsuyama Nobu: Hiroki Narimiya Reira: Yuna Ito Sachiko: Saeko
Music In addition to creating a NANA craze throughout Asia, the movie also helped launch Mika Nakashima to the peak of her career as she released the single "GLAMOROUS SKY" under the name NANA starring MIKA NAKASHIMA. The single created topicality with its special collaboration between Nakashima, HYDE (who wrote the song), and NANA author Yazawa Ai (who wrote the lyrics). The single became Nakashima's first number one single on the ORICON Charts. The movie also helped promote another artist, Yuna Ito, who starred in the movie as TRAPNEST vocal REIRA, released her debut single "ENDLESS STORY," the insert song of the movie, under the name REIRA starring YUNA ITO. The single ranked second on the ORICON charts, next to Nakashima's "GLAMOROUS SKY," and made Yuna Ito one of the most successful debuting artists of 2005.

NANA II coming soon
Based on the popular manga by Ai Yazawa, NANA 2 is the sequel to the movie NANA, which follows the adventures of two girls both named Nana. Taking place shortly after the end of the first movie, NANA 2 focuses on the duo's love lives. Nana "Hachi" Komatsu is trapped in a love triangle between TRAPNEST's bassist Takumi and the Black Stones' guitarist Nobu. Meanwhile, the other Nana (Osaki) struggles to find success for her band Black Stone, continuing a secret relationship with TRAPNEST's guitarist Ren.

Music NANA 2 once again featured the two artists Mika Nakashima and Yuna Ito, releasing songs under the names NANA starring MIKA NAKASHIMA and REIRA starring YUNA ITO respectively. NANA starring MIKA NAKASHIMA's new single, "Hitoiro," which featured TAKURO of GLAY as composer and NANA author Yazawa Ai as the lyricist again, did not do as well as its predecessor "GLAMOROUS SKY," peaking at only #5 on the ORICON charts. Two weeks after the release of the single, however, NANA starring MIKA NAKASHIMA released her first and last album, THE END, which managed to rank at #2 on the ORICON charts. REIRA starring YUNA ITO's "Truth" had no more luck than Nakashima's new single, ranking in only at the tenth place on the ORICON charts. The music video of the single was filmed in Scotland and used as scenes of the movie. Neither singles were as record-setting as their predecessors.
