NANA

Nana Osaki (Mika Nakashima) is a punk singer who wants to debut with her band, Black Stones (BLAST for short), where she is the lead vocalist and her boyfriend, Ren, is the bassist. Nana and Ren have lived together as lovers since she was 16. When Ren is offered a chance to debut in Tokyo as a replacement member of the popular band, Trapnest (Toranesu in Japanese), Nana chooses to continue on with BLAST and to cultivate her own career instead of following Ren, as she has too much ambition to simply be a rockstar's girlfriend. She eventually leaves for Tokyo at the age of twenty to start her musical career.

NanaKomatsu (Aoi Miyazaki), the other Nana, has a habit of falling in love at first sight all the time, and depending on other people to help her. When her friends, and then her boyfriend, leave for Tokyo, she decides to join them a year later after having saved enough money at the age of twenty.

The two Nanas meet on a train by chance, both on their way to Tokyo. After a string of coincidences, they come to live together in an apartment numbered 707 (nana means "seven" in Japanese). Despite having contrasting personalities and ideals, the Nanas like and respect each other a great deal.

Nana Osaki gives Nana Komatsu the nickname Hachi (after Hachiko, because she is weak-willed and has characteristics that resemble a puppy, and also as a joke since hachi means "eight" in Japanese).

While BLAST begins to gain popularity at live gigs, the two Nanas face many other issues together, especially in the areas of friendship and romance. The story of Nana revolves heavily around the romance and relationships of the two characters as one seeks fame and recognition while the other seeks love and happiness.

Probably a good idea to watch a trailer.

LM.C

LM.C (or Lovely-Mocochang.com in long-form) is a Japanese visual kei band, playing a hybrid of rock and electronic pop (branded New Century Electrock by the band), that consists of two members.

LM.C was founded by Maya, a support guitarist for musician Miyavi in the support band Ishihara Gundan (Ishihara being Miyavi's real last name, Gundan means 'brigade' or 'army' in Japanese) and a guitarist in his own band, The Sinners. While still with Miyavi, maya and other support members also played live shows as LM.C. Later they were joined by Aiji of Pierrot.

After Maya quit Miyavi's band and Aiji's band Pierrot disbanded, LM.C made their major label debut in October 2006, releasing two singles, "Trailers (Gold)" and "Trailers (Silver)."

As 2007 began, the group came out with a third single, "OH MY JULIET.", which was the 2nd ending theme for the Red Garden anime. On March 7, they released their first EP, "GLITTER LOUD BOX".

They released their fourth single, "BOYS & GIRLS" in June 2007, featured as the 2nd opening theme for the anime Reborn!

Their fifth single, "LIAR LIAR/Sentimental PIGgy Romance," saw an October 2007 release, while their sixth single, "Bell the CAT", was released in December of the same year.

In 2008, LM.C released "JOHN", in the winter, and "88", another opening theme for the REBORN! anime, in the summer. LM.C then debuted in North America, performing at Anime Expo's "Battle of the Bands" on 3 July 2008, followed by a concert at the Crash Mansion in Los Angeles, California on 5 July. Also in July, they performed their first hall concert at C.C. Lemon Hall (Shibuya, Japan); tickets to the show were sold out within two minutes of its release. Closing on July, they were invited to perform at the "FORMOZ festival" in Taiwan as a main act for the second consecutive year.

In November, LM.C’s first album “SUPER GLITTER LOUD BOX” and the second album “GIMMICAL☆IMPACT!!” were simultaneously released worldwide. These two albums were also available worldwide on main music download stores on the same day, with possibly different release dates for other countries.

On November 16, the band embarked on their first world tour, the “LM.C TOUR ‘08-‘09”. This tour includes stops in South America, Europe, and Asia for a total of 34 shows in 12 countries.

LM.C was scheduled to appear at A-Kon in Texas on May 29, 2009 but canceled due to threats of Swine Flu. In addition all other overseas tours have been canceled by Pony Canyon.

For 2010 LM.C have been scheduled to be special guests of honour at Fanime Con 2010 in San Jose, California, where they will be taking part in the MusicFest on May 30th. Moreover, they will be holding a Q&A panel as well as a signing session the day after.
