Nodame Cantabile is a josei manga by Tomoko Ninomiya with anime and live-action TV adaptations, centered around the two protagonists, Shinichi Chiaki and Megumi Noda (more commonly referred to by the whole cast as Nodame). The story begins at Momogaoka College of Music where both protagonists attend. Chiaki is a talented violinist and pianist, considered one of the top students at the school, who dreams of becoming a conductor. He is extremely handsome and popular, an excellent cook, very neat and stuck-up. Nodame is an extremely talented but wild piano player whose ambition is to become a kindergarten teacher. She is a complete slob, a terrible cook, and generally acts extremely strange. The two first meet when Chiaki is thrown out by his piano teacher after an argument, and winds up being taught under the same teacher as Nodame. They later discover that their apartments are next door to each other.The series follows the musical careers of both characters as Chiaki eventually decides to follow his dream and pursue conducting. At the same time, the relationship between him and Nodame goes through numerous highs and lows, growing ever stronger in the process. Chiaki eventually assumes control of Orchestra S, assembled by Franz von Stresemann, a conductor-in-residence from abroad.The manga originally ran from 2001 to 2009 in the josei magazine Kiss, with a two-volume sequel collectively known as "Opera-hen" that ran from 2009 to 2010, bringing the total volume count to 25. The anime adaptation first aired in 2008, and two sequel seasons were released, "Paris Chapters"/"Paris-hen" and "Finale", both of which detail the manga chapters that take place in Europe, mostly Paris. The anime in general follows the manga very closely, so much so that the season titled "Finale" isn't really a finale at all because the anime leaves the story open much like the manga did in those parallel chapters.The Japanese dorama was made in 2006, followed by two special episodes and two movies. A Korean Series remake called Naeil Cantabile (Tomorrow Cantabile) also aired in 2014. A Chinese Series remake called Symphony's Romance (蜗牛与黄鹂鸟 W� Niú Yǔ Huáng Là Niǎo) aired from June to July 2020 for 40 episodes.Season 1 has also been dubbed in English by Animax, using the talent of Bang Zoom! Entertainment instead of their usual Singapore-based actors.The show is highlighted by its beautiful performances of classical music, as well as its seamless blending of said music into the creative lives of its characters.Gyabo! | |

Mistaken Identity: A non-comical example when the Roux-Marlet Orchestra is lacking members for a concert, so Chiaki calls up Nodame to play the celesta. Nodame is incredibly overjoyed, but when she arrives at the theater, Rui takes her to the entrance—and Theo recognizes the world-famous concert pianist instead, assuming that Rui was the one Chiaki called in. | |

Trash of the Titans: Nodame's apartment. Chiaki just can't resist cleaning it up. He hilariously faces deja vu as he visit Rui's apartment in France and sees she's just as bad as Nodame, and he has to stop himself from instinctively trying to clean it as if it was Nodame's. | |

Official Couple: Not hard to figure out that its Chiaki and Nodame. For starters, they appear together in every anime opening and every credit sequence. And during the course of the show, not one of the other suitors that appear, for either character, pose any serious romantic challenge. Furthermore the main premise and appeal of the show revolves around the evolving relationship between them. Opposites Attract indeed... | |

Worthy Opponent: A few which helps characters set goals and strive to become better. Despite displaying some traits of a musical Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy, french conductor Jean Donnadieu is this during Chiaki's first conducting competition in France. Its actually his girlfriend Yuuko who does most of the trash talking, much to his chagrin. Rui and Nodame towards each other. Nodame's in awe of Rui's talent, prestige, and her ability to play with Chiaki, and so she often strives, to be as good as her. Little to her knowledge, Rui also views her as one — despite being a Cloudcuckoolander, Nodame's interesting, erratic, spontaneous playing, and her ability to draw people with it, is what makes Rui jealous herself. | |

Bookends | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_5313c266 | comment |
Book Ends: The first anime season uses these expertly, with the first scene of episode one, a flashback, running alongside a "narration" (words appearing an otherwise blank screen) about memories, and the final scene of the last episode continuing the thought to reflect one of the series' big themes and the development of the characters. Makes an already touching finale so damn-near perfect. In the live-action drama, the first song that the group together as an orchestra was Beethoven Symphony No. 7, as well as being the first time Chiaki conducted. At the end of the series, they played this song again, being the last time Chiaki would conduct in Japan with this orchestra, since they were all graduating and going their separate ways. In one of the final events of the story, Chiaki encourages Nodame out of her slump by getting them to play the piece they first performed together, Mozart's Sonata for Two Pianos in D major. | |

10-Minute Retirement: There are several instances where Nodame loses focus and seriously considers quitting piano lessons. Sometimes she recovers herself, sometimes Chiaki needs to help her regain her focus. | |

Just Friends | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_5d414804 | comment |
Just Friends / Better as Friends: Stresemann and the school's principal decided to be this after the principal had an illness that stopped her from playing the piano when she was younger. Stresemann's assistant Elise mentioned that if not for this illness, the two of them may have become lovers. | |

Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Most of the maestros featured in the series are like that, such as Stresemann with his pervertedness and Viera with his obsession for toys. Even Nodame's teacher in Paris, Professor Auclair, is pretty quirky too. | |

Race for Your Love | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_66805a18 | comment |
Race for Your Love: Chiaki has two instances of this, although he is not in danger of losing Nodame forever — he just has important revelations regarding what she means to him. The first one has him going all the way from Tokyo to Kyushu to find Nodame, who returned to her hometown. Then later in the Europe story arc, after Nodame has had her own doubts about performing and goes to play with some local schoolkids, Chiaki runs over to see her. | |

Missed Him by That Much: Nodame and Chiaki frequently go through this when looking for each other (or one of them doing so anyways), such as when Chiaki is out drinking with his new orchestra and just passes a distraught Nodame who's looking for Chiaki for comfort. | |

Once More, with Clarity | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_7374ab13 | comment |
Once More, with Clarity: It's established that Chiaki's fear of planes came from the sudden emergency landing he experienced returning to Japan. Then Nodame uses hypnotherapy to cure his phobia, and it's revealed that a young Chiaki was drawn to the elderly couple next to him because they had also attended a performance conducted by Vieira. During the landing, the husband started to suffer from a heart attack and Chiaki was the only one who saw his medicine bottle roll away out of his reach. The old man died shortly after and Chiaki believed he was guilty for being the only one who saw this and couldn't help. | |

Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: The S-Orchestra is this. When they are recruited by Stresemann, many of the members are so-called underachievers, and Chiaki especially got frustrated during their practices. Their delivering smash-hit performances in concert is a classic From Zero to Hero story. Then there's the Roux-Marlet Orchestra, when Chiaki is to become their permanent conductor and finds that the members are in disarray. | |

All Work vs. All Play | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_9874f2ab | comment |
All Work vs. All Play: Chiaki is usually seen engaged in his studies, advancing his musical career, while saving an orchestra or two along the way. He's even pondering beauty and meaning of music in his life on his spare time. Nodame is a talented but unmotivated music student, often preoccupied with her favorite anime Puri Gorota and generally being a Cloud Cuckoolander. She gets better in Seasons 2 and 3 as she finds her motivation to strive for greatness, with the help Chiaki, her mentors, and her friends at the Conservatoire. | |

Single-Issue Psychology | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_9e335555 | comment |
Single-Issue Psychology: Played with; Chiaki had a bad experience on a plane as a kid and developed a crushing fear of non-land based travel as a result. It only takes one hypnotherapy session with Nodame and he's "cured" - however she just makes him completely forget the incident, instead of curing the fear. It's seen afterwards that he's still comically afraid of non-land based travel, it's just that he can take it when there aren't any other options. | |

| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_afe75982 | comment |
Unsound Effect: Not exactly a sound effect, but, in the manga, you can't hear the actual music. The manga simply states the name of the song being played — and if you aren't familiar with the song, you're stuck with just the pretty pictures. It's also hard to know how well or badly the characters are playing. Nodame's badger, whose presence is seen in Nodame's emotional outbursts. | |

Demoted to Extra: Almost the entire supporting cast of season one less Kuroki the Oboe player don't come back to season 2-3. Some of them return in Finale's episode 0 DVD special as well as a few cameos in the season itself. Justified by the setting change from Japan to Europe. | |

Save Our Team | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_bd7fc87 | comment |
Save Our Team: Of the musical variety with the orchetra. Starring Chiaki in his first full-time conducting job with Paris' Roux-Marlet Orchestra. The orchestra itself has a storied and prestigious 150 year long history, and was conducted in the past by Chiaki's famous mentor, Franz von Stresemann. But when Chiaki becomes it's regular conductor, he finds it has fallen on harder times. Its short on members, and those who remain are unmotivated and demoralized by a recent streak of lacklustre performances. After an absolutely dismal concert with Chiaki conducting, he vows bring the orchestra back to its former glory. He did it before with the S Orchestra in Season 1, and he'll do it again. | |

Compressed Adaptation | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_bdc94cd9 | comment |
Compressed Adaptation: The first series had 23 episodes to cover the first nine volumes of the manga and didn't leave out much. The next series had 11 episodes to cover the next seven - yes, people noticed. The third season drops a storyline completely to fit the rest of the material in. The Japanese drama took minor stories out but otherwise covered the first nine volumes. The two specials that followed covered the next seven volumes - while the first special episode covers the conducting competition arc fully and accurately, the second episode cuts out even more than Paris-hen. The following movies also cut out a lot of stories, mostly ones relating to the supporting characters. | |

Despite displaying some traits of a musical Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy, french conductor Jean Donnadieu is this during Chiaki's first conducting competition in France. Its actually his girlfriend Yuuko who does most of the trash talking, much to his chagrin. | |

Cool and Unusual Punishment: After taking first place during his first conducting competition in France, Chiaki is kidnapped by Elise, Franz von Stresemann's agent and manager, with the goal of forcing him to sign on with her publicity agency. When he refuses even after being beaten up by one of her bodyguards, she resorts to tickling him with backscratchers until he submits. | |

Show Within a Show: Puri Gorota, a children's anime that has some similarities to Doraemon. Nodame is a huge fan of the show despite being an adult, and she even uses it to teach herself French by watching the show's French dub over and over. | |

Otaku: Nodame, who is a big fan of Puri Gorota, and Frank who also owns a lot of anime merchandise, although soon after he admits he's nothing compared to Nodame. The owner of the castle Nodame stays at for her recital is a masive Mozart geek. He practically has his significant dates and exact length of his lifetime memorised. | |

From Zero to Hero | |

The S-Orchestra is this. When they are recruited by Stresemann, many of the members are so-called underachievers, and Chiaki especially got frustrated during their practices. Their delivering smash-hit performances in concert is a classic From Zero to Hero story. | |

Shout-Out: Live-action, end of third episode: "SIEG ZEON!!!". In one episode of the anime, Nodame sings the theme song from A Dog of Flanders (1975) while she's in the bath. In Paris-hen, the next door neighbor, Frank, is an Occidental Otaku who collects merchandise of Shakugan no Shana, another JC Staff anime. | |

Rui and Nodame towards each other. Nodame's in awe of Rui's talent, prestige, and her ability to play with Chiaki, and so she often strives, to be as good as her. Little to her knowledge, Rui also views her as one — despite being a Cloudcuckoolander, Nodame's interesting, erratic, spontaneous playing, and her ability to draw people with it, is what makes Rui jealous herself. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: Earlier Chiaki initially decides to live in Prague when he learns Nodame was going to Paris. Then it's revealed that his father is relocating to Prague, and his mother knows that Shinichi would not want to make contact with him - sure enough he also moves to Paris with Nodame. Nodame hears Ravel's Piano Concerto in G Major for the first time and is inspired to perform it with Chiaki. However, that is also the same piece Chiaki is to perform with Rui. It absolutely breaks both of them when they find out separately. | |

Translation Convention | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_e11b003d | comment |
Translation Convention: Kai Dunn of the Berlin Philharmonic arrives in one episode, but has only a limited grasp of Japanese. While the episode renders everything in Japanese, handy notes appear whenever the characters are in fact speaking German. The second season takes place in France, so all the characters in France, including Russians and Chinese, are speaking perfect Japanese in a fansub with English subtitles. Lampshaded and justified when the live-action series shifts to Europe. It is explained a short way into the two-part special and the two films that the characters will speak or be dubbed in Japanese to reduce the need for subtitles on-screen. | |

Pimped-Out Dress: Masumi wears one, which he made himself, for the S Orchestra's performance of "Rhapsody in Blue" in Episode 10. At the feasts on the night of Nodame's first recital, everyone dresses up in the same clothes as Mozart's time, so we have the ladies including Tanya in all sorts of pimped out dresses. Except for Nodame, who opts for a male outfit to mimic Mozart in her recital. | |

Covert Pervert: Quite a few, whether it be Nodame trying to take Chiaki's shirt off or the replacement violinist Takahashi watching Chiaki take his off in the change room. Though it’s mostly all played for laughs. Chiaki surprisingly exhibits some aspects of this too, such as his reaction when he discovered Nodame is actually a Hidden Buxom and his reactions to girls with revealing chests in his face. | |

Will They or Won't They?: Nodame and Chiaki. In the first season of the anime they seem to get together in the end. For the second season this apparently has been reset with Chiaki constantly denying they are dating. In the Manga it is made explicitly clear that they are a couple, to the point that in the final issue, Chiaki proposes to Nodame and she accepts. They are still together as a couple five years later in the epilogue. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished | |
| Nodame Cantabile (Manga) / int_fe614133 | comment |
Beauty Is Never Tarnished: In the live action adaptation, Nodame always has perfect makeup on even though she's supposed to be a total slob. The make up is minimal though and justified as actors have to wear good make up due to the lighting when filming. Of course this is averted when Nodame overapplies the make-up and becomes a Cosmetic Catastrophe. | |
