Nodame Cantabile

Hello everyone! Today I will introduce the comic named "Nodame Cantabile". It is Japanese manga by Tomoko Ninomiya. "Nodame Cantabile" was published serially by Kodansha in the comic book named Kiss and it is issued in 23 separate volumes. And it won the prize named Koudansha Manga Prize. The theme of the comic is classical music. It is a romantic comedy, and the comics are interesting and you can learn about classical music. If you are interested in classical music, I recommend "Nodame Cantabile".



The chief character of this story is a woman called Megumi Noda. She studies piano at the College of Music. A man called Chiaki Shinichi lives in the room next to the apartment where she lives. He is at the same university too, but he learns conducting.

This comic became an animated cartoon, a TV drama and movie.The acters Hiroshi Tamaki and Juri Ueno appear in this movie. They learned about musical instruments to reproduce an orchestra. I was surprised that they researched so seriously. Please check out this comic or movie!
