Nanaka 6/17
Nanaka 6/17 By Andromeda As you get older, you reach a certain point where people start telling you to grow up. But when is the right time and how much growing up should you really do? Seventeen year old Nanaka was always telling her childhood friend Nenji to grow up and stop acting like a delinquent. So should he start acting like her... an unpopular bookworm who can only think of exams and college? Maybe Nanaka should stop acting so grown up and enjoy what’s left of her childhood. Nanaka just so happens to do that, but not by choice. Falling down, Nanaka suffers a head trauma after having an argument with Nenji about how he needs to grow up. Nanaka starts to suffer from a form of amnesia where she loses eleven years of her memory, returning her to her six year old self. Her father, in hopes of his daughter returning to her old self, decides not to tell anyone about what’s happened. Nenji reluctantly agrees to help him keep the secret and help Nanaka. After all, he feels guilty for this happening to her. There’s nothing like the innocence and the honesty of a six year old child to bring out the best in a person. Nenji finally takes on a more grown up attitude when he realizes how much looking after Nanaka needs. He was protective before because of being childhood friends and now he finds himself even more so, much to the disapproval of one of their classmates and school bully. Having a crush on Nenji, Yuriko does anything she can to embarrass Nanaka. Yuriko can’t understand what Nenji sees in Nanaka, especially now. But no matter how much Yuriko seems to be harsh with Nanaka. Nanakas innocence makes Yuriko realize that she can become what she dreamed. Yuriko remembers her love for the piano while seeing herself through Nanaka’s six-year old persona. Yuriko is only one of the people that this younger Nanaka touches and changes. It’s an amusing tale to watch as their true selves come shining through; that you can act like a grown up and young at the same time. It’s quite comical to see a high school bully become silly when he discovers his very first crush and how his younger sister and school yard rival handle it. It's fun to see Nanaka rediscover the things we take for granted as we get older. This is a cute and amusing anime that anyone will get a good chuckle out of. All anime fans can enjoy this series. Even I, who was skeptical at first (who prefers more fighting and supernatural types of anime) enjoyed this and even found myself wanting to see the next episode. Licenser: ADV Studio: J.C.
