Uhm... No need to become that worked up amelala... I think sevenpetals just meant there hasn't been a new single release in over a year, which is true.

Definitely didn't imply she was slacking off... Was literally just pondering the single's success because its been 8 months. That's "almost" a year, though ur right I didnt think of Nana Clips 7 and what not, so she hasn't been "entirely" absent from the scene.

I don't know why but I really really enjoy this single !! It's like in the old days I'm really into the three songs it didn't happened since so lonnnng ! STARTING NOW may not be stellar but it reminds me of the young Nana from the Hybrid Universe era !! Antifona is really easy to listen even it will probably become a forgetable song like a lot of her B-side. What about Renso Hanabi ?? It's a little like the Hime Murasaki of this single just a perfection ^^ she needs to keep this composer !!!
And regarding to her sales she is stable like I said in the past she reached a new level in her career she is not a rising star anymore ...
Ohh I'm shocked for the thing about Mahou Shojou Lyrical Nanoha !!! I found strange that the 3rd movies was still not released while the production began in 2013 or so ? now everything is clear and it's really a sad new ;/

Nana was a guest on 'The Covers' again! Got these links through amelala, so credits go to her for finding them, lol. Lost Road LOVE PHANTOM STARTING NOW! To be honest, and I'm not even kidding here; LOVE PHANTOM probably is my favorite TV performance of Nana. The angles, her acting, her posing and ofcourse her singing. It's all perfect to me. So proud of that performance, also Last road! And STARTING NOW! is okay!

I find it funny how amazingly on point she always on when she does covers and duets, her technique and accuracy are often times better than when she sings her own songs xD Maybe its the energy level and speed of the songs thats the differing factor, idk haha. I'm sure her own songs are more challenging, but It's not all of it. She seems so in her element and confident doing covers if that makes sense *edit* Just watched Love Phantom, LOVED IT! You weren't kidding about the angles and the acting. The energy was phenomenal. I know I said this earlier, but her voice just sounds really healthy and good recently. I love it. I felt she was getting a bit tired and it was showing in the last era and a little bit even in the one before that (So from SUPERNAL LIBERTY - SMASHING ANTHEMS) Wow, I know I've updated this like 6 times in 10 minutes, but I just remembered. STARTING NOW! was #3 on the Oricon Charts with 30,813 sales. Thats an 8k decrease from her last single release almost exactly a year ago. Not bad, its in line with many female solo artists still.
