NANA Anime Quiz: Which NANA Character Are You?

This fun NANA Anime Quiz reveals which character you resemble IRL. Are you Nana, Hachi, Yasu, Ren, or else?

This NANA Anime Quiz Reveals Your Character

Comprised of 20 anime-inspired questions, the NANA Character Quiz identifies which of the band members of the show looks like you. It analyzes your interests, MBTI type, and—above all—your childhood traumas to determine whether you are Nana, Hachi, Ren, Yasu, or any other character.

NANA is a 2006 Shojo anime about two girls named Nana who meet on a train. They are both traveling to a bigger city to pursue their dreams—and become famous. But life has something else planned for them; they become best friends.

If you ask me, NANA can be described in two words: growing up. It’s a show about dealing with traumas, overcoming insecurities, and finding true love in a cruel world—which is why we all relate to it.

Sidenote: I would also recommend that NANA fans take our Aggretsuko Character Quiz next. Visually, it may have nothing in common with NANA. But its premise is pretty much the same.

How to Know Which NANA Character You Are

I had a hard time figuring out which NANA character I resemble in real life. Then I came up with this brilliant idea; what if I compare my MBTI type to that of the anime characters? Well, it works. The MBTI comparison helped me figure out which band member I am in a few seconds.

Luckily, you don’t have to go through all that process. I have created this personality-type table for you to find your NANA doppelganger immediately.

NANA Character	Personality Type
Nana “Hachi” Komatsu	ESFJ
Nana Osaki	ISFP
Shinichi Okazaki	ENTP
Ren Honjo	ISTP
Nobuo Terashima	ENFP
Yasushi Takagi	INFJ
Takumi Ichinose	ENTJ
Junko Saotome	ESTJ
Layla Serizawa	ENFP

 

You can also read the main characters’ descriptions to see which one you resemble. Here are some examples.

#1. Nana Komatsu (Hachi)

A cheerful, gullible, and insecure girl, Nana Komatsu struggles with her love life. She’s in a toxic relationship that consumes all her energy and will to live. But she can’t seem to find the courage to leave it behind. (She reminds me of Fruit Basket characters.)

People who match Hachi are often friendly and naïve characters who are too polite to tell you that you’re bothering them.

#2. Nana Osaki

Personality-wise, Nana is a dandere; she’s a bit quiet and often acts tough, but she’s actually a loving and soft-hearted girl. People who get Osaki on their test results are usually tomboys who struggle with trust issues.

By the way, if you don’t know what dandere means, take our Anime Dere Quiz. It exposes your anime personality type and explains what these weird terms mean.

#3. Yasushi Takagi

Despite his supportive personality, Yasu actually suffers from a superhero complex. He wants to help everyone because that’s how he feels good about himself—that’s how he validates himself.

In my experience, those who match Yasushi in the NANA Quiz are reliable and trustworthy friends. It’s just that they slyly feed off your neediness and clinginess (just saying).

Find Your NANA Soulmate with a Deep Quiz

Do you still want to know which NANA character you are? Are you like, am I Nana or Hachi all the time? I’ve got your back. After rewatching all 47 episodes and analyzing the anime stereotypes in the show, I came up with the most accurate personality test that can determine your counterpart in the gloomy universe of NANA.

As for the good news, the results also reveal which band you belong in. It basically examines your physical features and persona to see if you’d play in Black Stones or Trapnest.

All you need to do is answer 20 relatable—and also pretty deep—questions.

By the way, let me know what you got in the comments sections. I’d love to know which NANA character you are. (Me, I am a proud Hachi.)
