Just to help you calibrate, I also use Darker Than Black as example of "science fiction done right" and Eureka Seven for "young adult done right." If you don't like those, then you may find my advice (go watch Nodame, all of it, in Japanese with good subs) and opinion (the Nodame series is the finest example of what you can do in anime that I have seen, across hundreds of shows) at odds with your own.I'm not sure why, but for some reason I've found myself reviewing certain franchises in reverse order. But what hits you across the span of the series is the character development, and the real tension of "how can these two extraordinary, obviously gifted individuals find a way to have a real, meaningful relationship?" The growing maturity of the characters, and the maturity of the supporting cast (wait until you meet Charles Auclair) are stunning. The original voice acting is superb (I seem to remember the Crackle version is dubbed, so be warned). But the anime version (beyond the source manga, which can't actually play the music for you) can do things (pity the poor orchestra). Sure, there's a television show adaptation of it (I was underwhelmed). The other answer, and the one I prefer to give, is to show bits of Nodame. Remember, the film adaptation of Cowboy Bebop fell apart because the estimated shooting budget was over 200M dollars.

Could you do this in any other medium? Not really. Literally the scale of the fight at the conclusion of the series is mind-blowing (without spoiling and teasing the non-viewers into going and watching it: wait until you see what they're using as throwing stars). One is to pull up something mind-blowing in the animation to show what you can do when you're not worried about a CGI budget, because most of the art cost per-frame lets you engage in pure spectacle without the financial gamble. When asked "what's different about anime?" from people that know I'm a fan of the medium, I've found there are a couple ways to answer the question. One of the points of frustration I have is the lack of availability of a complete anime disc release, for which I would gladly pay premium/kill to have on Blu. I even have numerous sets of the OST released. I have been a fan of the entire Nodame Cantabile series for quite some time. When I get some extra money, I'll find and buy the DVD/Blu RayĪnyways, let me hear your thoughts about this anime. If you love and enjoy music and you want to watch something relaxing with comedy and romance, You must watch Nodame Cantabile. Oh God! I probably wont find a good anime (for me) in a long time. It was an amazing perfomance, and when Nodame finished, i was exactly like Stresemann: I felt pleased about that wonderful perfomance Actually, I dont know how I felt.Īfter Nodame finished the sonata, she had this expression: So much frustration and regret When I was listening that sonata with a good animation, I was exactly like Stresemann: I was sad but amazed. This is one of my favorites scenes: Nodame playing a "sad" sonata with feelings of defeat and regret. I also features other master pieces with a special touch Nodame style xD Its amazing how anime transfors a music master piece into something more beautiful. Im not a big fan of Romance or Josei genre, but I do love music, especially classical music.Īfter watching the three seasons of Nodame Cantabile, Im speechless.
