New Drama

Nodame Cantabile

There's a wonderful new series that I just recently finished called Nodame Contabile. Thankfully it's Johnnies free and well let's just put it this way, it was so much more amazing because of it. I'm only a fan of Kamenashi-kun and that only barely. Neeeways, this drama is based on classical music and the story of two people who's very lives revolve around it. On the one hand there's Noda Megumi (aka Nodame) who loves to play piano for fun and has the unusal talent of remembering an entire score after hearing it just once. And of course, there's our unusal hero, who's a perfectionist, workaholic, and manical-to-be conductor. The chemistry between the two is absolutely amazing more so in the Live-Action drama than the anime, but overall the story is absolutely amazing. It's a great watch with all of it's crazy characters and Ueno Juri plays a wonderful Nodame with all of her quirks ^___^ I give a 10 out of 10!! Great drama worth watching, especially on a down day, cuz it'll cheer you right up >.<

PSS. The orchestra that orginally formed for the anime and possibly the live action series went on to become an official orchestra with the name Nodame Orchestra ^__^ The CD cover above is their work.
