Good Smile Company reveals first look at Nendoroid of NANA's Hachi

A first look at a new Nendoroid figure of Nana Komatsu from the iconic manga series NANA has been officially revealed by Good Smile Company.

NANA, created by the celebrated manga artist Ai Yazawa, was one of the most popular and influential shoujo manga of the early 2000s.

The story follows the lives of two young women, both named Nana, who meet on a train to Tokyo and end up sharing an apartment, becoming deeply intertwined in each other’s lives, loves, and careers.

This new figure is of Nana Komatsu, who is often called “Hachi” to differentiate her from the series’ other protagonist, the punk rock singer Nana Osaki.

Hachi is known for her cheerful, if often naive, personality and her pursuit of love and a sense of belonging in the big city.

The “Nendoroid” series is a globally popular line of collectible chibi-style figures, known for their large heads and smaller, posable bodies, and for including a variety of interchangeable parts and accessories.

This new release marks a significant moment for fans of the series, which has had a limited amount of new merchandise in recent years.

The reveal of the unpainted prototype gives fans a first look at the figure’s sculpt, but further details have not yet been announced.

Information regarding the figure’s interchangeable face plates, optional accessories, final price, and a specific release window is expected to be revealed at a later date.
