Nana Iida (飯田 奈々, Iida Nana) is a haracter in the Rail Wars! series. She serves as the leader of the Fourth Peacekeeper Squad of the Tokyo Central Railway Public Safety Office.

Appearance in Anime

Nana is portrayed as a calm and gentle leader who places a great deal of trust in Naoto Takayama, often delegating important responsibilities to him despite his status as a high school trainee. She appoints Naoto as deputy squad leader, reasoning that while Aoi Sakurai excels in stamina and marksmanship, she is too reckless; Haruka Kōmi is intelligent but lacks physical endurance; and Shō Iwaizumi is strong and athletic but not particularly strategic. Naoto’s balanced personality and sound judgment make him the most reliable choice.

Nana shares a long-standing connection with Hitomi Gonō, the supervisor of the Fourth Peacekeeper Squad. The two were classmates and frequently collaborated during training, often competing against one another. Nana repeatedly outperformed Hitomi in marksmanship and note-taking, demonstrating her skill and reliability.

Unlike Hitomi, Nana has no ambitions for promotion. She chooses instead to remain the leader of the Fourth Peacekeeper Squad, which is composed mainly of high school students participating in on-the-job training, allowing her to guide and mentor younger recruits over the years.
