I must know :$! you never know but don't get your hopes up. not to mention, the manga's been on hiatus for about 6 or 7 years now due to Ai Yazawa's (the creator) health. with that said, it's a legendary shoujo so i'm sure it will go a reboot one day. |

| As realistic as this anime is, damn it gotta kind of depressing. Both Nana are fine but Sex Pistol thingy and Sid & Nancy... somehow there gotta be a bad ending for one of them or someone close to them. |
| I don't know if anyone feels the same, but personally for me, it was the best ending I could think of. it ends in a bittersweet kind of way. The way those guys hanging out in room 707 was so nostalgic, especially for both Nana. some things were not answered, but i guessed i preferred it this way, not everythings gets an answer in real life. a realistic ending for me I mean, come on man.... NANA wasn't a happily-forever-after kind of story to begin with, it was always about hardships and how people get through those hardships. A nice bittersweet ending. what more could i wish for ? :) a great ending for one of the best storytelling ever in fiction. NANA is a legend, and will always be |

I can not believe that so end the series. now I will start reading the manga because I do not stay satisfied with this end. I love this story and its characters but I have been dreading the end and even more to learn that the sleeve is unfinished. I need more. |
 |
| Wow what a ride it was,a kinda sad ending i guess.. Is Nana dead..? And Nobu,what a guy.. Him and Yasu are just the best. Definitely one of the best anime i have seen! 10/10 |
| I'm assuming its not canon, but the flashback was a really great way to end the series. |
| Dam wasn't expecting it to start with a time skip followed by a flashback. Yasu still looks the same lol. I hope RieraXShin and MiuXNobu happened. How did Nobu get the guts years from now to join em at room 707 or was it offscreen? Gonna check out the manga some time later to resolve this. |
| Nana was one of the best anime series I've seen so far, it became one of my favourites and I feel like I'm gonna rewatch it. Although, the ending left me wanting more! I was hoping for an ending where I can be in peace and happy with but it just left me wondering about what happens next? Where is Nana? So I had to find a summary of the manga and read the rest of the story becasue I had to know. I have no hope on a second season which is sad, I'd definitely watch it. But this episode was just so disappointing!!! I'm glad they showed Nana and Hachi together all cute but idk man, I needed something more heartwarming I guess. After 20 something episodes of crying and depression of Hachi, boy that girl is annoying, I feel like we needed to see pure joy and bonding time. But I guess, real life isn't like that as well and seeing how this anime feels raw and true maybe it was the best ending. IDK. I NEEDED MORE OF THAT NANA HACHI LOVE. PERIOD.!! (After reading some of the comments I see people hating Takumi, I think he was such a good character I'm so glad she stayed with him. Literally her best choice in this whole series. I feel bad for Nobu and all but Takumi was just the best choice. Congrats Hachi you used your head once. ) |

| This was a good drama anime, but thats it, just good, nothing special and far from a masterpiece. I dont get the hype around it at all, watch TV-Shows instead lol. 7/10 I heard that there is an alternative ending where Ren dies, i would've lowered the score to 6 if the anime adapted it. |
| Wait... This is shoujo??? I think this should be Josei. Anyway it was a good anime compared to other drama and romance animes. Marathoned it for 2 days itwas a good ride! Episodes gets darker and after this episode It has completely drained out my life. so many questions unanswered though the manga is still ongoing so I guess this is the best way to conclude the anime because it gives so much room for your own interpretation. and the manga took a much darker turn. |

misunderstood your "alternative" thought you were pertaining to an OVA or somethin. haha anyways yeah it was canon in the manga but it was never adapted in the anime. which makes the anime ending better, i think. |

| And now I finish... Gosh it still makes me cry :3 For anyone with an unsatisfied feeling for this though, the manga does continue on a little time after this so I'd suggest reading it. But the manga has been been put on a 8 year hiatus so it still isn't complete too, like the anime. |
| I'm not happy with that ending and I don't think anyone should be. It's much too open and inconclusive. 9/10 but really left something to be desired. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhvsdjnvjkdnkvsjd. I binged the whole of Nana over 3 days. The whole time I felt my heart slowly breaking, I was anxious and sad. I already felt dread towards the ending, like knowing something bad was going to happen. Everything was being told in past tense. I'd spoiled some things from the manga for myself, with the way the anime had me emotionally I was really glad they didn't adapt that. I don't think I could have taken those sorts of things along with everything else. I really wish Nobu had opened that door.. He deserves so much love. You can tell even from them meeting with Nana not there, even Hachi knows herself, for true happiness Nobu would have been the perfect choice. But it's such a good portrayal of how easily people get sucked into love and lust, especially if they're weak to those things like Hachi. Nothing makes sense. You know when something leaves you craving episode after episode, and you feel fulfilled, yet empty when it's over, like you don't know where to go next, something was done right. Nana is really underrated for what it is, I'm glad people here are giving it the recognition it deserves. |

| So, 6+ years have passed and Takumi still hasn't married Nana? Too much happened too suddenly. Shin, dressed as a girl... LOL And Nobu, poor fellow. But what good what it do at this point? Kind of an unsettled ending, to one of the best anime dramas I can recall in quite some time. |
| I finally, finally watched this. This is an OG on my ptw from when I first joined mal and I finally got around to watching it. I didn't know much about this anime going into it. I thought and was hoping it was just going to be a better Beck since that anime left me disappointed, but instead I got a really drama heavy masterpiece. The start was a little slow and I didn't really start getting into it until the teens but once I did it stayed amazing the whole way. Nobu is favorite character, I just love everything about him. I can't say I liked the ending a lot though and after looking up the manga and finding out it never ended properly is a real bummer. Bummer isn't the right word, it's a complete disaster that it doesn't have a conclusive ending. I hope one day I get to find out what happens to characters. Though the ending isn't my favorite everything before that was absolutely amazing and it's now one of my favorite anime that I've seen. It's been so long since I've given this rating and Nana deserves it 100%. 10/10 |

| Finally finished re-watching this series and I think my heart broke again like it did 6-7 years ago when I watched it for the first time (especially now that I caught up with the manga). I'm not sure I'll be able to find another romance/slice of life anime as good as NANA, so I pray I'd be able to see how the story properly concludes. |
| Respect to Nobu, he stayed a real man till the end. Overall it was an amazing show, a tale full of laughs, tears and frustration, beautifully concluded with a bitter sweet end. The only thing preventing me from giving the full score is that this final felt kinda incomplete. Nevertheless, it became one of my absolute favorites. |

| Goddamn it all, I wanted Nobu and Nana back together sooooo bad. Now she's forced to put up with that shitstain Takumi forever. I understand Nobu's motive and all but still, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck ;((((( This ending just left me feeling empty. Gotta agree with everyone else here that it felt a bit too inconclusive. Hope the manga delivers a better one. Still a great series overall. Very raw and unabashed in it's portrayal of relationships. 9.5/10 |

I've been rewatching this since forever and re-reading the manga and getting my heart broken every single time I remember that this might not even have an ending because it's on an indefinite hiatus. I don't really care if it won't be drawn anymore - I just want to know the end. :( |
| I was going to give this anime a 9 but the last 15 episodes or so dragged a bit. It was never as great as the first 25 episodes. 8/10 |
  |
| I hate the fact that this is unfinished. |
  |
| The glimpse of the future and the whole way of starting each episode with a monologue leads me to think that in the future Nana is dead. Also Hachi seems to still not be married to Takumi & her offer to wash Nobu makes me think they have a secret lover relationship (secret in order to keep her daughter think things are ok, I don't think Takumi would actually mind their relationship). But to keep that apartment only to use it once a year for a celebration that didn't have any special meaning... I really think that 1 year later Nana committed suicide. Nobu still having another job proves that they aren't in a band anymore since they would have been pretty famous if they made albums for the whole time skip period Anyway, great anime 10/10 |
 |
| That was a long drama, but it was worth it. At first and in the middle I was going to give it a 9 to 10, but after the Takumi x Nana x Nobu there was nothing to talk about that was epic( even when Ren Proposed). I felt Nana's( not Hachiko) love story between her & Ren should've had a real impact( I didn't feel that). To sum it up it was boring( I thought they would make it interesting when she said those things about Yasu). As for Hachiko I felt she was one promiscuous woman( but I enjoyed that) and I can't forgive what she had done to Nobu. Nobu himself should forget about her and get on with that girl next door ( not Yuri), the other who was an actress. On the record I love to hate Takumi, but I loved his sense of responsibility though. The other characters such as Reira and Shin, weren't that interesting for me. My favorite was Yasu, I loved that guy for real I think he deserved more from the story and I loved his mature side( wished he had romance than others). The comedy was the best. So I'm gonna give a Nana (7/10). |

| What's up with this ending? Was so disappointed and it pissed me off. They show a time skip in the beginning and then shift to the latest episode's scenario. The ending left a lot of questions. At least they should've made an original anime ending and not like this... sigh. 7/10 though |
| so many fucking question I still have and I wanna read the manga but it's on hiatus, so like i am so conflicted. |
| I don't get that ending better stick to the manga though it's on hitaus. 10/10 anyway from me I enjoyed more like every second of this show it's only natural to give it a 10 |
| Loved the anime but extremely disappointed with the ending , you just cannot leave me like that with a cliffhanger and expect a high rating to the series I am not a fan of manga so not interested in reading further to find out what actually happens , a second season would've been awesome but I am not sure why they have never done it . From the beginning of the series I waited until the end to find out why both Hachi and Nana were talking in the beggining of the episodes like they were not together or one of them died only to be let with a cliffhanger =( |
| The ending is such a huge letdown, it's kinda rushed and felt incomplete. Other than that, this anime is a 10/10 feels trip. 9/10 |
| I guess I am a part of the minority who actually didn't think the ending was bad. I wouldn't say I liked it, but I just don't mind it. But maybe that's because I still hope the mangaka will get better soon and continue the manga. So I guess it just doesn't seem so 'final' to me. As for the anime, I loved it so much. Definitely one of the best I've ever watched. I got really attached to the characters. They had amazing development, and I desperately want to know what happens to them. I especially loved Shin. He is such an amazing character. I hope nothing bad happens to Nana, but from the looks of this episode, Blast probably disbanded, and Nana ended up going somewhere far away, never meeting with the others. I really hope that's not the case though. Also, even though chances are bleak, I'm still not giving up on Nobu x Hachi. |
| I usually don't really like shoujo romance anime or manga that much, but this show was actually pretty damn good. |
