I seriously hope she starts NANA up again. I know the series can be cheesy but I think it really is a must read for all young women. I think the girls represent young woman rather well.
And to add to the debate on the children's parents, I support that the child is Nobu's. How could the child be Reira and Takumi's if the one that is obviously Hachi's is younger? That'd mean either 1. Hachi loses this bab and has another down the line, or 2. Reira currently has a hidden children because it is older than Hachi's child.
Also, Hachi promises to name her child after Ren (or in a sense--- she consults him on a name). And well, the kid's name IS Ren.
Also, the kid has a natural interest and talent with the guitar, as does Nobu.
Nobu didn't 'walk out' on Hachi when he found out she was pregnant, he was just shocked and he did offer to do all it took to care for the child, but Hachi was convinced the child was Takumi's since Takumi didn't use protection, but Nobu did (but hey, condoms break). I think she was just trying to think of her child in the long run and the best financial and assumed biological situation, I don't think she was in love with Takumi. She is trying to make the best of the situation and make a warm home and a family for her child to be born into. But so far that doesn't look like that's going to happen. I think they will remain married, yet live separate lives.
i agree. i think it should be a must read! it seriously helped me realise a feel a lot of things when i first watched the anime. [i read it recently. i was waiting for it to finish but then u know..i waited forEVER so..yeah.]
The way yawaza brings the characters to life on paper or on the anime..is just so strikingly beautiful. i remember when NANA performed ROSE for the first time on top of the dining table when Nobu visited, the chills and vibes i got were so incredible. and when she performed on stage for the first time ROSE, again, it was even more incredible. you only get that feeling in real life, at real concerts or around real people..
There's just so much put into the story of NANA..it's a shame if anyone lets it pass by them..
