Line 4:
Nana "Hachi" Komatsu is a 20-year-old [[Genki Girl]] from the countryside with a bad habit of falling in love at first sight (with any man who glances in her direction). Nana Osaki is a 20-year-old punk rocker from a different small city, who's coming off a bad breakup with her boyfriend (and former bass player of her band). When "Hachi" decides to follow her boyfriend to Tokyo, and the other Nana heads there to start her music career, the two young women meet by chance on a snowbound train. They rent an apartment together several days later. [[Deconstruction|Surprisingly realistic drama]] and an [[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship|oddly romantic friendship]] ensues.
 
The manga ''Nana'' is technically [[Shoujo]], but according to [[The Other Wiki]], [[wikipedia:Talk:Nana chr(28)mangachr(29manga)#.22Genre.22|it's often been confused for]] [[Josei]], and according to that same wiki, by 2005, it was the fourth best selling [[Shoujo]] manga. The first live action movie was the #2 film in Japan in 2005, behind only the latest film from [[Studio Ghibli]]. The anime ran for 47 episodes, and is licensed for distribution in North America.
 
Not to be confused with [[Seven of Seven|Shichinin no Nana]].
