I love HNC, and im starting to like this anime, i just hope it doesn't lead to the same love conclusion of HNC. a good romance comedy is good once in a while.

Seconded, I really hated how H and C season 2 ended. That is partly why I am hoping this stays a comedy (also because it is so funny)
Peace.
Well, I watched the first two episodes of this last night. About time I started watching a current series. I'm really liking this one a lot. I don't watch many comedy animes, so this is a really fun change of pace for me. As someone who took both piano and violin lessons (ok ok, so maybe I only played violin when I was in kindergarten when I had an awesome violin teacher and then he moved away and the new teacher wasn't good a knowing how to teach kids so that was the end of that) I find the technical musical aspects of this anime to be really fascinating. I'm definitely putting this on my 'Must Watch' list and sending it over to my brother who is majoring in music at university.
And that picture of Mine's hair from the live action....priceless! I'm downloading the live action now, just for that, lol.
Episode 5 by Froth-Bite
Wow, people really love live-action Mine's hair, hahaha. Yeah, when I first saw it, I was thinking, "Holy jeez, that's some crazyass hair!!" Still, that can't be the reason why people should download the live-action![]()
Hehe, now that I've seen the first couple episodes of the live-action, I agree with you there. In fact, I think I may even like it better than the anime. I need to watch a few more episodes of both to decide, but so far the live-action seems to take a bit more time explaining things, so the story is a bit more coherent. I also think the differences in music style are more evident in the live-action, but maybe that's just because I'm watching more closely for it this time around.Originally Posted by kooshi
Not only did they explain things a bit more clearly, but the live-action is wackier than the anime. Plus, Nodame is so damn cute and plays the part extremely well. Unfortunately, I find Chiaki to be colder and harsher.
Yeah, do you know which corresponds more closely to the manga? I wasn't sure if it's just a really wacky series or if Japanese television is just wacky in general.Originally Posted by kooshi

I think the coldness suits his character better. I can't really say anything about the end of the series since I haven't seen past the first few episodes, but I'm hoping that the increased coldness of his demeanour will make the gradual change in his character more apparent as Nodame starts to wear off on him. It also is a great contrast to how upbeat Nodame and Mine are. And the expression on his face when he thinks about going on a plane....I nearly fell off my chair laughing!
