So I finished disc 2 containing episode 5-8 of the Nana anime series. I really do not know what they were thinking for episode 6 and 7. They were basically repeats of disc 1 episodes 1-4. I thought I had entered some Déjà vu moment or something.
I had to read my disc a few time to ensure that it was disc 2 and not disc 1. I was frustrated by the repeat storyline and dialogue. Yes, yes they did offer us a couple of minutes of new info, thrown in towards the end, but to have the viewers sit through more of Nana’s whining. . . now that’s just cruel.
However, despite the repetitive dialogue, episode 8 resuscitated my interest in Nana. Finally, the show has started to pick up momentum. It’s got me involved and has actually held my interest for the whole 23 minutes. (Yes! We are finally making progress)
At first I was a bit baffled: how could there be over 21 manga and the anime be so annoying. I guess Nana (anime) is a bit of a late bloomer. We got off to a slow start but now I am excited and ready to see what happens next.
