As much fun as its prequel
3 December 2017 | by bfczcipeSee all my reviews

I disagree that Nana 2 was bad. Sequels are by nature boring and inferior, but this one kept up the story line and arches.

The lives are more thoroughly parsed and we learn more about nearly every character without introducing unrelated subplots. I would recommend this too all manga fans and certainly those who watched 1 should not be disappointed.

Aoi Miyazaki is a disappointment however. She refused to star in the sequel only because of one sex scene. Wow, sex is the most natural human act next to breathing, eating and drinking. It is more natural than taking the train, being in a band or sharing an apartment. She should go play in a Middle Ages period movie.
