If you’re a fan of anime, then you’re probably familiar with the Japanese term Nakama, which means friend, colleague, or compatriot (but really means so much more). For many of our favorite Anime shows, Nakama is the core of our heroes’ power, allowing them to harness the power of friendship to overcome any and all obstacles.
For this episode of the MANA (Manga Anime Netflix Adaptation) Podcast, Matt invites actor Adelaide Kane (Reign, Grey’s Anatomy) to discuss Nakama in anime and how she applies the power of friendship in her real life as well as who would make up her own nakama dream team.
