Nodame Cantabile
SYNOPSIS:
Based on the hit comic book by Tomoko Ninomiya, this is a fun-filled quirky romantic story of two very opposite people.
Megumi Noda, or gNodameh is a piano student at Momogaoka College of Music. An extremely talented pianist who wants to be a kindergarten teacher, she prefers playing by ear rather than reading the music score. She is messy and disorganized, takes baths several days apart and loves to eat, sometimes stealing her friendfs lunchbox when it is filled with delicacies.
Shinichi Chiaki, is Momogaokafs top student. Born into a musical family, he is talented in piano and violin and has secret ambitions to become a conductor. An arrogant multi-lingual perfectionist who once lived abroad in the music capitals of the world as a young boy, he feels mired in Japan because of a childhood phobia.
They meet by accident. Nodame quickly falls in love, but it takes much longer for Chiaki to even begin to appreciate Nodamefs unusual qualities. Their relationship causes them both to develop and grow. Because of Nodame, Chiaki got the opportunity to lead a student orchestra and begins to have a broader appreciation of people's musical abilities. Because of Chiaki, Nodame faces her fears and enters a piano competition. Opportunities open up as both begin taking risks, stretching themselves far more than they ever thought possible.

I SAY
I was searching for a banner to use for my multiply in createblog.com then I saw a fanmade banner of a jdorama and it's entitled Nodame Cantabile... so I tried to watch it in crunchyroll... and find in funny and fell in love with the series... but I cannot finished the drama [actually the first episode] because my computer is old and slow... so I tried to find a DVD copy of this jdorama and fortunately i have bought one... I have bought it in an anime store somewhere in Makati... hahahaha
About the Liveaction drama... I love it!!! DA-I-SU-KI!!! nyaaaaaa~ Like the TWdrama Corner With Love.. the drama's being comedy is natural not corny... the special effects are great~ and cast is also great! Ueno Juri is great... she's like Nodame in the anime... She really deserves the Best Actress Award [Television Drama Academy Awards] for Nodame Cantabile.... she really acts like Noda Megumi... anyway Hiroshi Tamaki isss sooooooo hott! waaaaaah... the first time I saw him I already fell in love with him... [anway he's the bald guy in waterboys...am i right?] ... Hiroshi is also great! sugoi desu! He act great as well as Chiaki Shinichi... Acting cool in a comedy way... And many people were fooled by his acting.. people thought that he's really good at violin, piano and conducting [I am one of them..] but he is just acting like a pro... [confessed at Bistro SMAP] and Eita-kun [also at Waterboys with Tamaki Hiroshi and also in the Finale with Keisuke Koide, and I was suprised to know that Eita played the role of Junpei in Kimi Wa Petto he looked dfifferent in Kimi Wa Petto and he is also at Tokyo friends with my fave singer Ai Otsuka]... he's great too! A rocker playing a violin! nice~ i also love Eita... he played Ryuutaro Mine... now I am a fan of KIYORA X RYUU~ gyaboooo~ love the tandem of Kiyora and Ryuutaro! love it! Mizukawa Asami play the role of Miki Kiyora, "The Concert Mistress"...[Asami is in the Japanese Horror, Dark Water, and i really can't remember who she is there~}... anyway like I said... I love the love tandem KIYORA X RYUU than NODAME X CHIAKI... Saeko-chan... love her voice... is that really her voice? [she's in Nana Movie and like Asami in Dark Water i don't remeber Saeko as well... aaaaaaaah I remember! she's the girl who also loves NANA/HACHI's boyfriend the art student/waitress... ok..] Saeko's acting is great as well... hahahaa...Koide Keisuke... obviously I'll say he's great... actually yes he is... acting like a gay with that big afro wig... waaaah and when i saw his real face... I can't believe it that he is handsome ne... [he's also in waterboys finale with Eita and also in Gokusen 2]
I love this dorama because one of the reason is that I must watched every manga/anime liveaction... xD and also one of the reason is that I love orchestra and everything and it also involves the piano which is my favorite musical instrument~ And they also used some music composed by my favorite composers such as Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin... This dorama reminda me of a TWMovie, "SECRET", because of Chopin, the piano and everything...
Now, I have finished the drama I will miss this drama... specially Nodame's *gyabooo~* and yeah the "Fart Exercise"... hahahaha
There will be a sequel but with two episodes only... will be shown in Japan this January 2008 and I am really excited specially when I saw the cast... waaaah Eiji Wentz will play as Frank! YAY! I MUST WATCH THIS!!!!
