A timeless masterpiece in the world of shojo manga, “Nana” by Ai Yazawa, is a compelling read that showcases her exceptional narrative skills and distinctive, stylish artwork. Although the series has temporarily paused its run, fans remain passionately committed to it, much as they were when it first started serialization in 2000. As the 25th anniversary of the series approaches, it’s only natural that shojo enthusiasts would be excited – and it appears Viz Media, the English publisher for “Nana”, recognizes its significant impact on readers.
According to an announcement made by Viz Media on their official account on January 24, 2025 (which was previously Twitter), the popular manga “Nana” will soon be available in a large, two-in-one omnibus edition. This collection will present the original manga in a new format. Although Viz Media hasn’t revealed the cover art or the “refreshed design” mentioned in their tweet yet, they have confirmed that this release is scheduled for some time during Fall 2025.
On different occasions, Viz Media has honored significant manga works with their “Viz Big” editions, and this isn’t an exception. In the past, they have published expansive omnibus versions of popular titles such as Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and Vagabond. These special collections boast refreshed artwork and premium paper to ensure durability. Although it doesn’t constitute an official sequel by Ai Yazawa, it offers devoted fans a wonderful means of expressing their admiration for the timeless series.
Nana’s Realistic Character Drama Has Made It One of the Most Iconic Manga of All Time
Although Nana’s artistic style is compelling enough to draw interest, it is its captivating storyline that has cemented its enduring popularity. The narrative unfolds around two young women named Nana – one known as Hachi – who serendipitously meet each other on a train bound for Tokyo, both carrying one-way tickets. Choosing to share a roof, these contrasting personalities develop an extraordinary connection that appears indestructible. While Hachi seeks genuine affection, Nana navigates her intricate feelings towards her former lover, leading them to discover a unique sense of kinship in their shared experiences.
Absolutely, Nana’s themes delve far beyond romantic entanglements, addressing the darker aspects of relationships such as toxicity, co-dependency, and infidelity. Ai Yazawa masterfully crafts a narrative where Nana and Hachi experience challenging moments authentically, making it seem like they’re simply navigating their adult lives and learning from their mistakes along the way. The raw honesty in Nana’s storyline is what makes it an essential read for every manga enthusiast.
