With a consistent barrage of music from the "NANA" anime series since Fall 2006, the release of "NANA BEST" is the long awaited compilation of top hits from ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (BLACK STONES) and OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST).

More than likely if you are a fan of ANNA TSUCHIYA and OLIVIA, you may have purchased the previous BLACK STONES and TRAPNEST albums.

So, what is new?

Offered on this compilation are special tracks such as "ANACHY IN THE UK" (note: spelled wrong on the listing credits but spelled correctly inside the lyrics booklet as "ANARCHY") and "LUCY ~Studio Live Version~ from ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA (BLACK STONES) and "Nothing's gonna take my love" and "Recorded Butterflies ~Live Version~" from OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST).

If you are a hardcore fan of the "NANA" anime series, the DVD does come with the non-telop opening and ending clips plus original animation clips from the "NANA" animated series.

The insert booklet comes with the lyrics and a collage of pictures from the anime.

Also, the "NANA BEST" DVD version comes with a "NANA" mouse pad using the cover image found on the CD version.

If you have not purchased any of the CD singles or albums or are a completist, then definitely purchase "NANA BEST".

The album is definitely an awesome compilation for the "NANA", ANNA TSUCHIYA or OLIVIA fans but for those who already own the CD singles and previous albums, you may need to consider if the extras are enough to warrant a purchase.

The anime has to be one of the most depressing,confusing,and infuriating of all time. But the music is STELLAR.IF you have watched the anime you already know a lot of the songs on this disk. I am very sure even though I haven't watched the Nana movies that some of the tracks are from there as well. You don't have to understand Japenesse since there is some English sprinkled thru plus you can tell the mood of the song by it's beat and tone.

Both bands are equally represented on this disk.

This CD is great! I highly recommend it if you are a fan of the anime. The songs are done by Olivia and Anna Tsuchiya and they did a wonderful job on the music.
