Naota Nandaba

Naota Nandaba

Meet Naota Nandaba, a 12-year-old with a name that means "honesty" in Japanese – a little irony considering how hard he tries to seem grown-up. Always acting cool and collected, he kicks off and wraps up each episode with his laid-back monologues, insisting that "nothing amazing ever happens here," even when his life is a whirlwind of surreal chaos. Naota looks up to his older brother Tasuku, carries his baseball bat around, and even hangs with Tasuku's ex, Mamimi, who represents childhood for him. As he navigates his feelings for the wacky Haruko, Naota finds himself caught in the messy in-between of adolescence, surrounded by adults who just don’t get it. Plus, he's got a peculiar taste in drinks and hates anything spicy – a quirky kid trying to figure it all out.
