face2face As far as Mika's look, she did completely fit what I thought of when I thought of Nana, but in the movies she doesn't have that full range of emotions that Nana O has in the manga. She did a great job with the part, I won't deny that. I think it may have been more of the writers. It seemed that she only had a few different moods: happy but not going to show it, irritated (complete with mini eye twitch), mildly pissed off, super pissed off, and I'm going to beat your face in. With a touch of I'm sad but I'm not going to show you the full extent of it. You never really see her full blown happy like in the manga. Or is that just something that I've noticed?
Nope, quite a few of us have noticed that Mika-chin's Nana is different from the one in the manga. She just seems more... intimidating without reprieve. Manga!Nana, while sometimes seeming hard to approach, always has this sort of air about her that is very warm and playful. Mika-chin's Nana... lacks that playfulness and is much more hard and straight.

tokyofro face2face For voice and style I would definitely go for Anna. She has the right voice for the style of music while I feel Mika is more suited for pop music and ballads, just like she built her career off of. As far as Mika's look, she did completely fit what I thought of when I thought of Nana, but in the movies she doesn't have that full range of emotions that Nana O has in the manga. She did a great job with the part, I won't deny that. I think it may have been more of the writers. It seemed that she only had a few different moods: happy but not going to show it, irritated (complete with mini eye twitch), mildly pissed off, super pissed off, and I'm going to beat your face in. With a touch of I'm sad but I'm not going to show you the full extent of it. You never really see her full blown happy like in the manga. Or is that just something that I've noticed? That's exactly what I didn't really like about Mika in the movie. She seemed completely emotionless! I think that she looks quite a bit like Nana (but it'd be nice if she had some eyebrows tharr... O: ) so no complaints there. But... I wonder why she didn't wear the deep red lipstick that Nana usually wears in the manga/TV series? =)
Maybe the shade of red just wasn't suited for her skin tone? I did remember one scene where they showed her in that red dress she did have the lipstick on (if I'm not mistaken) and it did look rather odd.
I'm sure they could find the right shade for her skin tone, but for some reason I can see her wearing a lot of rosy and lighter colors much better than the stronger red tones that are Nana O.'s trademark.

It's definitely hard to say one or the other when you get down to it. Mika has the ABSOLUTE Nana look. Right down to Ai Yazawa's drawing style. She's tooth-pick skinny, intense forehead, the works. While I must agree, she does have less emotion than Manga Nana, she's really more of a cool, nothing phases me kind of gal which brings the contrast between the two Nana's. I'm sure they did this so everyone would realize that the girls had their names and their romances holding them together, leaning on each other. As far as Anna goes, she def. has the attitude and the flare. That in your face, I will rock your world kind of feel. That's the punk aspect of Blast, sure, but Anna also gives the impression of that older sister that beats the stuffing out of anyone who messes with her younger siblings. So, that's too hardxcore for Nana. I think if I didn't go into all the details, I'd just have to pick Mika.
