Tenkosei Nano (2026)

What a disappointment

After searching for this show for nearly a month and finally getting 4 episodes with eng subs, I payed out of pocket for a translation app for episode 5 and 6 only to be very disappointed.

So many people were saying this was better than the Thailand reset version, and my expectations were set, only to be immensely ruined. Like, how did they manage to completely miss the mark? Japan usually produces some of the best supernatural thrillers, so what went wrong?

This version is not even remotely close to the original at all; it feels like 2 different shows. Nanno, in this version, does not feel like a supernatural entity, but a high school girl who wants revenge. Almost all the storys are boring and end without very satisfying revenge. Tbh, this felt like a low budgeted, cheap remake rather than something done with precise thought, and it's a shame because the actress was good. I feel like with Netflix theatrical quality, she could have easily demolished this role up.

Such a shame and a waste of time and money I spent. I would rate this much lower if not for the actress, who was carrying the series on her back. Try for yourselves, but for me? I'm out 12 dollars.
