Status: Complete
Description: On the world that consists of a single giant continent called Dokkanon, most people have some kind of special ability. Those who have a high-ranking ability, such as the ability to control water, are respected and granted much power. Those with low-ranking abilities, such as Nana, who controls bananas, and her best friend Ringo, who has super-powerful legs, have very little power in society. When Nana and Ringo were kids, they were awed by stories from Ringo's adventurer father about a land called Oz, where a god lived who could make any wish come true. Nana and Ringo swore that they would go adventuring together when they were adults. But as time went by, Ringo's father vanished while adventuring, and Ringo became much more aware of the social stigma associated with adventurers. Will the two of them find the strength and courage to follow through with their promise?

I still don't understand the boundary between yuri and shoujo ai, anybody care to share?

Shojo ai is when you give your bro a brojob but say no homo. Yuri is like when it is homo.

I remember reading the first chapter in 2009 or something. It's disappointing it ended so soon.

Came back to read again. Awesome!

Excellent premise, excellent title

Read this manga before I heard this song. Now, every time I hear this song, it reminds me of this manga. Kinda fits too...

I forgot to read the conclusion of this manga even though I read the first chapter when it was just scanlated mmm...
Still no regret, best ending ever mmm...~!

Banana sex on the moon.

ch13 is ridiculous. It probably can be stand-alone to the manga. It can even pass as a fanfic. 

 

---Anyway, they wasted a good adventure story. With that ending, ch1-11 (even 12) almost feel meaningless. 

---edit: The manga will also be forever known for "Yuri sex on the moon! (with a banana)". It may be good or bad, but I don't like it.

Don't forget that Nana can change banana to 'anything' (still looks like banana though) so I betting if was not just yuri sex on the moon with a banana (if you know what I mean XD)

Funniest manga I've ever read, I simply can't understand how it got axed. I absolutely loved the character, the art, and the humor. I thought it had set up a really epic adventure. 

 

Oh well, at least I got to read it.

 

If you ask me... there are 3 simple reasons... Though they are are wild massive guessing.

 

1 - The magazine in that Banana no Nana was serialized is too small, the type that couldnt provide the proper support.

 

2 - The author seems like the type that loses focus easily, from all the projects that he has credit the longest one that he got to work on, he isn´t doing the story...

 

3 - One Piece came first. Could be a stretch at first, but its pratically One Piece with Lolies...

 

A idiot hero, crazy determinator with a ridiculous yet badass fighting style... Nana if pratically Loli-Ruffy

 

A comically serious swordfighter that lost someone dear: Zoro that uses three swords and Budou that uses a broom sword...

 

A powerful kicker with a self-style technique: Sanji vs Ringo

 

Kagami Karen was a poor excuse of Portgas D Ace though...

 

and in the timeskip you still can see Nami (the vident girl with weather control), Brook (Ichigo, the funny undead [cheat user] dead girl), Robin/Franky (the dead eyes and the love for robots), and Usopp (the girl in the blacksuit running away)

 

adventurers = pirates down to the way of how the group is discrimated by the common people... Most of the adventurers behave themselves like the pirates in Mock Town

 

Einherjar = Marines (though the later have more class, I personnaly consider Yae Shinichi one of the reasons the manga got axed)

 

Telomere = Grand Line

 

Oz = One Piece

"Earth"?

I understand the disappointment about the rushed "wtf" type of ending, but I sincerely think it is much better to go over the top like this rather than just letting things fizzle out.

Okay, so the ending sort of... well really sort of sucked, but still - I'm glad to finally see the rest of the chapters here.  This series started out so well and had so much potential and if nothing else stands as a fine example of a wasted opportunity.

 

Thanks ydwtt.

I still remember the beggining. Such promise. Such unique uncliched lines such as this one.

 

All to end like this!??!?!?

 

Well, I will just use my imagination and have their adventure for them. It was a pleasure!

Guys, this manga ended few years ago.

"What my manga gets axed? I guess I can go wild now. I wanted them to have an group so let's skip to that, now I have to explain the faith of Ringo's father, reunite Nuna and Ringo and let them find Oz. SO he will kick nana to the moon.

And now I need a ridiculous reason for a fight between them and then they can have sex! Also Ringo will accelerate the moon by kicking it and remain standing on it, it makes no goddamn sense but I'm free now!"

Shoujo-Ai is technically a western term, and is used to describe less explicit girl x girl romance. If you use that term in Japan however people will look at you strange, because there it is used in a literal sense. Meaning "The love of young girls" e.g. Pedophilia, or lolicon. Yuri is western use is used to describe the opposite of Shoujo-Ai, which would be explicit girl x girl romance, or in other cases girl x girl sex. However in Japan Yuri is used to cover everything from girl who have a very close friendship (e.g Marimite) to girls in explicit romantic relationships.  

W8, wuuut?

...lol. This is ridiculous.

Lol'd.

well clearly axed, but was kinda of funny while it lasted.

Shoujo Ai... I'm gonna paraphrase a long explanation my friend told me.  Just think of it as girls having a very deep appreciation for eachother.

 

While Yuri is straight up relationship/lovers.

Dat rushed ending...
