The movie NANA was a live-action adaptation of the manga series NANA, which was written and illustrated by Yazawa Ai (Ai Yazawa). It was released on September 3rd, 2005 in Japan, and the DVD edition was released on March 3rd, 2006. It spans from the first volume to the fifth of the original manga.

Basic Storyline

Two young women meet on a train to Tokyo. They soon learn that they share the same age and first name, Nana, although they're both seemingly very different people. Oosaki Nana is an ex-frontwoman for a former punk band, Blast. Cynical and calm, she contrasts and compliments Komatsu Nana, a bubbly and optimistic woman going to Tokyo to live with her boyfriend who has passed his exams. Oosaki points out how Komatsu reminds her of a dog, loyal and happy to help its master in any way it sees possible. She nicknames her 'Hachi' because of this (from Hachiko).
