Introduction
What is Nana?
Two different girls yet with the same name
- Nana. Both with different backgrounds have their
paths crossed one day. They thought it would be a one day
thing, however things got more complicating when fate brought
them together again as room mates. The story unravels into
their intertwining lives, as both go through ups and downs
just to maintain their very special friendship.
Komatsu Nana is a plain simple girl. Her idea life is to have
a happy family with the man she loves. Oosaki Nana is a j-rocker.
Music is her life. She even gave up her love for it. Two different
personalities brought them closer, making their life interwine
with each other. Oosaki Nana gets a taste of family life with
the help of Komatsu Nana. And Komatsu Nana gets a taste of
the music industry, fame and excitement with Oosaki's help.
A manga that mixes both friendship, family and love. Where
else can you get a healthy balance of all three?
Nana runs in Cookie and currently have 12 beautifully
drawn tankoubon, one fanbook and one artbook. Nana is obviously
a shoujo manga that focuses life of an ordinary Japanese girl
who has a dream like every other girl. But shoujo doesn't
mean boring or your cliche girl-love-guy books. Nana
is different as it dabs in a touch of j-rock and definately
have a rather high bishounen factor in it. ^^;;
Ai Yazawa
Who is She?
Ai Yazawa Sensei is a japanese mangaka who
is more widely heard in Japan, Europe (Italy?). Her more popular
works would be Gokinjo Monogatari and Parakiss, which is a
sort-of sequel to Gokinojo Monogatari. Her other works include

Ai Yazawa sensei is a very different mangaka.
Her stories deal with things that is very real in our world
- Music, Sex, and life.
She is also very modest with herself. Always
saying that her drawing skills isn't that good. (Well, that's
rubbish right? ^^ We all adore her drawing skills)
