Nana Is One Of The Best-Selling Manga Series

Nana began as a two-part prologue in 1999, appearing in Shueisha’s Cookie manga magazine. Nana began serialization in Cookie on May 26, 2000. The manga continued to serialize for 84 chapters before being put on indefinite hiatus due to Ai Yazawa’s health. Despite being discharged from the hospital, a return date for the manga was not announced. This was followed by years of rumors and speculation.
Finally, in 2022, Ai Yazawa revealed that she was interested in resuming Nana once she was able to. It was a really positive statement, and it gave fans hope that Nana would reach its conclusion.
Ai Yazawa’s Nana has done extremely well in terms of sales. According to a report from 2019, Nana has sold more than 50 million copies, making it one of the best-selling manga series of all time. Since it is a dated report, it is safe to say that the actual number is much higher. Once the deluxe editions start releasing, the sales numbers will increase yet again.
Nana’s Anime Is Must-Watch
Nana’s anime adaptation was a collaborative effort between numerous studios, including:
- Nippon Television
- VAP
- Shueisha
- Madhouse
The anime was directed by Morio Asaka (Cardcaptor Sakura, Chihayafuru). Tomoko Konparu was in charge of series composition, while Kunihiko Hamada designed the characters. Finally, Tomoki Hasegawa composed the music for the series. The anime released 48 episodes, and all of them received positive reviews from the audience.
In April 2007, Junko Koseki (editor of Nana) and Masao Maruyama (managing director of Madhouse) were asked about the anime’s continuation, to which they responded that they wanted to wait until the manga’s conclusion to produce more episodes.
Nana is available to stream on HIDIVE.
