In 2016, Nana Komatsu starred in Destruction Babies, a somber, nihilistic and utterly violent tale which was met with either love or hate reviews ! She impersonated Nana -a hostess working in a Yakuza owned club- who at some point in the story finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time. Nana Komatsu was just 20 and skilfully handled dark scenes, a performance rewarded with several nominations and awards.
OnderHond: “As for the actors, they do a pretty spectacular job. Yuya Yagira (Dare mo Shiranai) takes on the role of Taira and almost effortlessly embodies one of the most enigmatic and charismatic characters I’ve come across in recent memory. Taira is almost impossible to read, but his sly grin, misplaced sense of amusement and disturbingly haphazard attitude make for a truly interesting character. Masaki Suda and Nana Komatsu are equally charismatic, though their motivations are at least somewhat more understandable. It’s a stellar cast”
