"First I will participate in a Conductors' Competition here to confirm my own ability." "Sorry but he won't take the 1st place!" "...it's because my Jean here will take the 1st place!" "1st." "Shinichi Chiaki!" "It's great that you won, isn't it?" "Senpai made one goal in." ""Since I met her, only good things happen"?" "Nodame too will do my best!" "I won't be defeated!" "Because I love your piano!" "You always say irrelevant things!" "Mukyaaa!" "I wonder what do I play the piano for..." "My beloved Vieira Sensei..." "Finally I managed to reach this stage." "Performance tour with Vieira Sensei?" "After the contract is settled, I'll immediately go to see him." "To be honest..." "I thought I had been forgotten." "Vieira Sensei..." "Don't move!" "I guarantee your safety as long as you don't create a stir!" "German?" " Oliver!" "?" " Right." "What the hell are you doing!" "?" "No... this is..." "Is that old man paying you for this, huh?" "Just come with me quietly!" "I don't want to!" "It's okay!" "Nothing to be sacred about!" "I beg you, come with me!" "No!" "Look Mommy, those two men are hugging each other!" "What are you plotting?" "Damn!" "Sorry to be abrupt but from now on we will decrease the subtitles... and will broadcast in Japanese as much as possible." "Paris National High Academy of Music (Paris Conservatoire)" "Wait!" "Quick!" "Yoisho!" "Hurry!" "Hurry!" "This way!" "This way!" "We made it!" "We're almost late because of Nodame!" "Tanya, Franck, merci beaucoup." "I'm glad we woke you up!" "But I didn't get any notice on the Entrance Ceremony." "No such a thing as entrance ceremony." "You got a notice for the introductory meeting, right?" "Eh?" "Nodame didn't go to the introductory meeting?" "What about the announcement for the Analyse?" "And the reservation for the side-reading?" "Analyse?" "Reservation?" "Sorry!" "I wish I had told you about it." "Nodame must find it hard to read and write still." "You did it on purpose, didn't you?" "Even if only person, it's better to decrease rivals, isn't it?" "Hey!" "I don't have such intention!" "But didn't Nodame attend the same academy as that Chiaki, right?" "She's a strong rival, isn't she?" "Yes, Chiaki suddenly won out of the blue..." "I feel as if my brain suddenly went faraway." "Yes, that was way too amazing." "But Nodame-chan, the way you are now, ...you can't be together with Chiaki." "You can't be together with Chiaki." "Okay, let's begin the Analyse lesson." "(=analyzing the structure and background of a composition)" "First, listen to the piece... then from its particular characteristics, assume the composer and the era." "After that, look at the score... and try to analyze the harmony and other things." "OK!" "Ho?" "A lost child?" "There is a child over there..." "In the Conservatoire, as long as you pass the exam you can get in, age doesn't matter." "Though there is an age limit of 22 as the oldest." "Could I possibly be the oldest here?" "Now let's listen starting from the 1st piece." "Hoo gee!" "While listening to this piece now, please give comments on it." "This is Brahms' Symphony No. 3, 3rd Movement." "Unmistakenly in 1883, he composed four Symphonies, didn't he?" "As Brahms' Symphony, it is simple, flowing, and... compact!" "Brahms at this time composed a lot of songs too..." "As to the motif making up the melody, suppose the first dotted note rhythm is section motif "a", the next section motif would be..." "The So-Fa-Re in the 2nd measure, I think." "Right?" "No." "Because it's the same rhythm as the section motif "a", it as a transformation of "a"." "So it means that there is only one motif?" "Isn't it impossible for a melodious theme?" "!" "Even if the 2nd measure has the same rhythm, the intervals are different, so it's a separate motif." "But as the melody starts with an auftakt, until the next one it should be a single motif." "No." "Isn't there one more motif in there?" "So many Chiaki Senpais in here..." "Then from the dotted quarter note after this dotted rhythm until the transformation of section motif "a" in the next measure... what about regarding it as motif "b"?" "Wooo!" "Thinking that way, the auftakt has a meaning too now, hasn't it?" "That's true." "The 2nd measure became connected to the 3rd measure now." "Ah that's true." "Yes, right, right." "I think so too." "That is a good thought." "I think so too." "You.." "You too, please make a comment." "Ano..." "Yes... hmmm..." "I'll do it next time." "Hehhh?" "!" "Nodame..." "Are you alright?" "Why..." "Huh?" "Why do all of you have such a deep knowledge?" "Franck too..." "Even a child." "Aaah..." "Well..." "Because I like it." "Besides, I've done such an Analyse lesson at my previous school, so I'm used to it." "Didn't you do it in Japan?" "Analyse?" ""Desert Prometheus Plan"" "Is it successful for now?" "But different from my expectation, you're already so black and blue?" "Different from Maestro, he's young, so his resisting power is..." "Elise." "What's this?" "This "Desert Prometheus Plan"?" "!" "I want you to sign a contract with our agency." "HA?" "If you belong to our agency, we will give you a good promotion..." "A lot of business will be coming to you so you can work like a cart horse!" "This a wonderful contract which will make you an excellent conductor!" "Now, will you sign it?" "Or won't you?" "I won't!" "Wooooow!" "Why?" "It's the same agency as your respected teacher, you know!" "It's definitely not an honest business!" "For my promotion, the Competition's agency..." "Our agency is more excellent." "Accept the Prize money and the performance right from them." "However all other schedules will all be administered by us." "I refuse!" "Such an inhumane agency like this!" "Really?" "What a pity." "I hadn't wanted to use this means..." "Wh... what are you going to do...?" "Do you know this story?" "Prometheus... because he gave fire to mortals, Zeus' anger befell on him." "He was chained to a cliff, and had his intestines pecked and eaten by eagles." "Day by day his intestines were pecked and eaten..." "Koshokoshokosho!" "Stop it!" "Heeeeh!" "Hoooore horehorehore!" "Koshokoshokosho!" "That serves you right, Chiaki!" "This is Jean's revenge!" "Jean?" "Let him have it!" "The hand of God!" "Cheer up, Nodame!" "It's alright, you'll soon get used to it!" "Besides, the Practical hasn't started yet anyway." "Ah right..." "We want to play the piano soon, don't we?" "Yes!" "After listening to Chiaki's performance in the Competition," "I got highly stimulated too." "I feel that I've found ... different new discoveries from the past." "As I thought, orchestra is good, isn't it?" "Oui, oui!" "Nodame will also... do my best... and practice more." "For me to be able to perform a piano concerto with Chiaki Senpai," "I must..." "Nodame-chan!" "You haven't changed!" "Golden (gloves)!" "Comment allez-VOUS!" "Waaaaaaaaa!" "GYABO!" "This way." "Ou!" "Is this Nodame-chan's new home?" "It reminds me of the time when I was a student." "Though my room was tidier." "But it is tidy already." "Is this Chiaki's room?" "No, it is next door." "Just like when we were in Japan, only Senpai's room is a V.I.P room, and his piano is very good too." "He's really an extravagant man, isn't he?" "Gyabo!" "Ou!" "Does nothing change... between the two of you?" "We're always together, you know." "Since that time, Nodame has been doing my best!" "Other than the competition," "I also took the exam to the Music Academy." "It's a remarkable progress!" "Progress?" "By the way, why are you here, Milch?" "You don't have any agreement to meet Chiaki Senpai here, right?" "Why not?" "Because Senpai said that he was going to Vieira Sensei's place." "Here you are." "It's hot water." "Vieira!" "Congratulations!" "Welcome to our agency!" ""Desert Prometheus Plan" is finished!" "Now I'm going to go on vacation!" "From tomorrow Chiaki... will accompany Maestro Stresemann on a performance tour." "Hai!" "This is the schedule and instructions." "This one contains erotic countermeasures." "Yoroshiku!" "Performance tour?" "It's great, isn't it... that you can receive training right away." "You may go home now." "Wa... wait!" "What was that "Desert"?" "Nothing especially." "It sounds good to the ears, that's all." "I ended up signing a contract with such an agency..." "What will happen to me from now on?" "Chiaki, Chiaki, something terrible happened!" "Nodame is abducted by a dubious man!" "In the city, he suddenly came behind her and "GAA!"" "then... this..." "What are those hands doing?" "He said that if you want him to return Nodame safely to you, you must go here." "He must be a weird foreigner anyway, right?" "Mm!" "He looks a lot like Stresemann the Conductor, but definitely it's not him!" "He seems to be very lecherous!" "Definitely it's him!" "It can't be true..." "As I thought, Japanese culture is amazing!" "Now everybody, let's do a Japanese traditional event!" "Let's play baseball game!" "Jijii!" "(old man)" "Chiaki..." "Why does this Club exist even in Paris too?" "Chiaki..." "You got thin..." "I got thin in just one day today!" "Eh?" "Pardon?" "Don't act dumb!" "Using Elise, you forced me to..." "Chiaki Senpai!" "How's this?" "Milch's gift for me from Japan." "Nodame-chan looks wonderful!" "Yamatonadesiko!" "(ideal Japanese woman)" "The title is..." ""Catch me CHOU-dai!" (choudai = please, chou = butterfly)" "Gyahaaaa!" "And now... to celebrate my pupil's victory, let's all of us..." "Cin cin!" "(Japanese = male genital, Italian = kanpai)" "Well... he's my pupil, so it's natural for him to win." "It's owing to you." "Eh?" "What did he win at?" "He won at... sexual harassment court trial!" "Touch!" "Touch!" "This man is really..." "His way of doing things really made me upset, but..." "Alright." "I have to go now." "Eh?" "Where to?" "Tomorrow it's Spain, right?" "A performance tour with Stresemann... there's no reason to be unhappy about it." "I will go there first by overnight train." "What are you saying?" "!" "We'll drink like this until morning... then we fly together by plane." "No!" "Whenever possible, I don't want to go by plane!" "Overnight train..." "I missed using one." "Shall I go by it too?" "Eh?" "Somehow I want to... get on one very much!" "That's settled," "Nodame-chan!" "Hai?" "I'm going with Chiaki... on a performance tour." "Eh?" "Nodame-chan too, please do your best with your piano study." "Where to?" "For how long?" "Around the world." "For about 3 months." "This... please do me a favor." "Take care of my room." "A lot of packages and various other things will be delivered, I think." "Bye." "Do your best, OK?" "You may use the piano in my room."

"Therefore, about those matters," "I'm saying that you must separate them clearly." "Huh?" "Chiaki." "You had better... be honest to yourself!" "But WHO has dragged me away from Paris?" "!" "It's Elise!" "I'm Noda Megumi." "How do you do?" "I'm Charles Auclair." "Nice to meet you." "I'm sorry that I haven't been able to give you lessons because I was on a performance tour." "Bebe-chan." "(=baby)" "They call me Nodame." "Ah!" "This is... from my mother for Sensei." "This is a famous product from Hakata called "Toorimon"." "Oh, thank you!" "It's omochi!" "Omochi!" "(= rice cake)" "No, they are omanjuu." "(buns with red-bean paste)" "How delicious!" "Omanjuu!" "Right?" "This won The Gold Prize at Monde Selection." "One more!" "One more!" "Ano..." "Auclair Sensei is... the person who after listening to my performance at the Competition in Japan, invited me to this school, right?" "Yes." "It's good that you passed the exam." "Does it mean that Nodame have a prospect?" "Yes." "Everybody here has." "Won't it be too late for me to start from now?" "I wonder about that..." "Eh?" "First, let me hear your piano." "You may play whatever piece you like." "Liszt - 100 Transcendental Studies" "How was it?" "It's not good at all." "I asked you to play the piece you like, not to show me your special ability." "Besides, students who can play such a difficult piece like that are not limited to you alone, but there are many others." "What did you come here for?" "November." "Finally I returned to Paris." "Ha?" "You want to have a day off?" "For a day... for only a half-day... as soon as I collect my clothes I will return immediately." "Didn't I say that the performance tour would continue for 3 months?" "!" "I had already made you able to debut as written in the contract, so..." "Yes." "I feel thankful about it." "Eh?" "I can't hear you!" "I feel grateful to you." "If you don't return to us... then..." "About the Competition Victory Memorial Concert, it's decided to be held early in the New Year." "Eh?" "It'll be your Europe debut." "Bye!" "I wonder if she's still at school..." "I must report to her about the Tokyo Performance... and also about Europe debut." "No." "Before that, I should clean up first." "When I called her, unmistakenly she was here..." "Why am I... so anxious like this?" "As long as she is in this room playing that piano, it will be fine." ""Fine"?" "What will be fine?" "Thinking about it... the things that happened since I met her:" "I was picked up in front of my apartment..." "Along with her kotatsu, she invaded my room..." "I let her kiss my cheek..." "(This is a board of Jinsei/Life Game in Japan, something like Monopoly but with life events)" "I invited her to study abroad together..." "I went to Nodame's home in her hometown..." "I arranged to live in the same residence..." "*Stopping." "Busy, deep in thought* (Rest once)" "Carelessly I took her hand..." "Carelessly I passed her my room key..." "*Stopping." "Busy, deep in thought* (Rest once)" "Up to now, usually I stopped around this stage, but..." "Hentai No Mori (Pervert Forest) Welcome!" "Ah?" "Nodame?" "Welcome home, Senpai..." "Congratulations on your debut..." "Good job with your hard work." "She turned into that again." "Today Nodame's stomach is full already, so please excuse me." "Wait!" "What's wrong with you?" "You stomach's already full?" "Had something bad happened at school?" "Or rather, did you do something bad at school?" "Nothing especially." "Nothing..." "I couldn't do anything." "Nodame cannot catch up... with anything at all." "Although they are all younger than Nodame, they have a high level of intelligence... and detailed knowledge in music in too..." "Nodame was even... laughed at by a child..." "Nodame is like... a frog in a well." "The world is very vast." "That's all." "The fact that you have no intelligence is not something that only started now, isn't it?" "Even so, you've passed the exam!" "That must have been a mistake." "I was no good at the Practical lesson either." "But... what about the piano teacher who invited you?" "He said: "It's not good at all. "" "and "What did you come here for?"" ""Konnichiwa Bebe-chan... "" "That's all." "How ridiculous..." "You... you did that "Something Exercise" again, right?" "I did my best playing the piano, you know!" "But he said it was not good!" "I'm already 22, yet he called me "Bebe-chan"." "What did you play?" "Play it now!" "Just like the way you played in front of Sensei." "Transcendental Studies..." "Moreover, why... does she play it like that?" "Rui plays Liszt "Etudes Dexecution Transcendante"" "Stupid girl when there's no need for her to be anxious about it." "It's enough, Nodame." "It's enough, stop it!" "Mukyaaaa!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Do you mean that you can't listen to Nodame's piano?" "It's not that..." "I do like your piano!" "Therefore, you don't have to worry." "I can't help it because I love Chiaki Senpai one person only!" "You always say irrelevant things!" "Don't feel sorry for me unless I'm begging you for money." "Please get out of here now!" "You can leave Nodame alone!" "Chiaki... welcome home..." "Otsukare!" "(= said after someone's hardwork)" "Irrelevant things?" "I do like your piano!" "That's why you don't have to worry." "I can't help it because I love Chiaki Senpai one person only!" "Therefore about those matters," "I'm saying that you must separate them clearly." "Damn." "But it's the same with me too... whenever I face a music score," "I always feel as if a high wall were blocking my way." "However... there's no other choice... than to overcome those walls one by one by myself..." "Hmm, you seem to get completely lost..." "Ah, right..." "Would you like to try playing it at a recital?" "Eh?" "At the year-end Recital in Loire, one of my students will be introduced as one of the performers." "For this year's recital, do you want to try to play there?" "Recital?" "It's impossible." "Non!" "There are many other students who can play better than Nodame." "Don't you want other people to listen to your piano?" "Then what did you come here for?" "What do you play the piano for?" "What do I play for?" "These are the pieces for the recital." "Mozart and Ravel." "Hoogeek..." "Mozart!" "Then I am Majino his assistant." "Because Auclair Sensei is busy with his work outside the school, for a while I will be the one guiding you in the lessons." "Hai." "Because there is not much time left, let's start straightaway from sight-reading." "Eh?" "Hai..." "Even if this is a side-read performance, did you read the score well at the beginning?" "Of course, check the cadence and the tempo first!" "Once more!" "Hai." "Have you taken Analyse class in Japan?" "Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart..." "Born in 1756 in Salzburg, Austria, he is one of the three great masters of classical music alongside Haydn and Beethoven." "This "No. 18" which was made public in 1789 was said to be his last piano sonata..." "Carrying the consistency of Mozart's music, it's a great piece which keynote has cheerful and bright tones, while at the same time attaining maturity and depth." "Heh?" "Although it is difficult to do an Analyse of Mozart's compositions in his later years, it is a MUST to be able to analyze the background and spirit of his era in addition to playing Mozart's tone colors!" "Spirit?" "Make it like a fanfare." "Hai." "It's a polyphony, so listen to the left too." "Hai." "Pay attention to the left hand's fis." "Make the moll be felt." "Hai." "It's canon again now." "Hai." "Enlarge it using crescendo." "Hai." "Mozart" " Piano Sonata No. 18" "Why such a sad Mozart?" "Do you hate Mozart or something?" "I don't hate him, but..." "But?" "I can't enjoy it... or rather, I have no confidence." "Ha?" "I can't do Analyse either..." "I can't do side-reading either." "I have not studied to this extent." "You never did it in Japan?" "But you attended a Music Academy, didn't you?" "I didn't do it there." "Then do it!" "I don't understand it either." "Then try to understand it!" "What do I play the piano for, I wonder..." "Then quit it." "Return to Japan and play whatever piece you like, in whatever way you like!" "Onara Exercise (Fart Exercise)" ""Nodame Sensei's Guidance"" ""Nodame's Music Guidance" Kindergarten music to raise beautiful hearts" ""Hi!" "I'm her husband!"" "Nodame-chan," "The way you are now, you can't be together with Chiaki." "You can't be together..." "Chiaki." "Have you decided... on the piece for your Europe debut?" "No, not yet." "What about Brahms No. 1... which suits the New Year?" "Huh?" "I want to know how much..." "Chiaki has progressed." "Brahms Symphony No. 1" "The is the piece I first conducted, with Rising Star." "Hallo, it's Nodame!" "I am now not at home." "Please leave a message." "Thank you for your supports, everyone!" "Megumi Noda." "Though she's a 1st-year student, she's already 22." "How do you intend to raise her?" "Hmm..." "I'm still thinking about it." "This could be too harsh to say, but could she possibly not doing anything in Japan?" "Mozart" " Piano Sonata No. 18" "You're practising from quite early, aren't you?" "Auclair Sensei!" "Eh?" "It's morning already?" "Could you be here since yesterday?" "Aaa... somehow..." "I thought I was just about to understand it..." "Mozart..." "Somehow...?" "And this?" "La Suite Du Mojamoja?" "This is "Mojamoja Suite" composed by Noda Megumi." "Megumi Noda..." "Is it you who made it?" "Yes." "Hmmm..." "It seems to be a cheerful piece." "In the beginning it's like a small bird singing... then gradually it becomes lively, airy and gay." "Eh?" "Is the story here a children's tale?" "Noda Megumi" " Mojamoja Suite" "You made a mistake!" "It's because your composition is hard to predict." "Predict...?" "But this music piece is like this, right?" "Uh-oh!" "Some anxiety appeared!" "The sky turned darker... someone was shouting anxiously." "That's the Moja tree who's hated by the others." "He smells bad." "Moja tree?" "Not even an insect wanting to come near him, he was bored living a life of merely standing there." "That's why when the storm came, he became very happy." "Therefore make it more exaggerated here!" "Scatter away the anxiety in the forest by playing it happily in forte!" "Try to play it." "But you didn't write "forte" on the score..." "I forgot to write it!" "Please feel it!" "Just as you wish to say many things by your composition, other composers also wish to say many things." "Eh?" "You only hear that voice instinctively and sensually." "What did Mozart see and what did he feel when he was composing this piece?" "What kind of world, what kind of tones was he playing?" "Please try to listen more clearly." "However, that Schubert's Sonata was very good." "The one you played at the Competition." "Please play it once again." "Hai." "Schubert" " Piano Sonata No. 16" "Schubert was really a difficult person." "Don't just talk about yourself." "Listen to others too." "Face the music score face to face." "See?" "Can you see them now...?" "The sceneries in this piece of music?" "Ha..." "Ssshh~" "Did you often come here?" "I come here every week with my Granddaddy." "Let's listen together inside!" "This is Mozart's "Ave Verum Corpus"." "This piece for Mass is the only one" "Mozart completed during his later years." "Thank you for all your supports" "You're going to a Castle in Loire at the year end?" "Yes~" "Benoit-san who is sponsoring the Recital is an ex-nobleman from a Count Family with a very long history." "Going by myself, Nodame feel worried that I might get lost, so... if you've no other plans..." "Kyaaa!" "I'll go, I'll go!" "That'll be a great vacation!" "May I go too?" "Weren't you going to an Anime Festa again at the year-end?" "Who knows I might be the one playing at that Recital next year, so..." "I had better check it out in advance..." "How nice!" "An otaku with a rich fantasy!" "What did you say?" "You!" "Then, what about Chiaki?" "Senpai... looks very busy..." "I have no idea when he will return." "But, but... it'll be your first recital, right?" "You had better inform him!" "You stupid!" "While Chiaki isn't here, she wants to progress by herself too." "Why don't you know a girl's heart?" "!" "What's that?" "Ah, right!" "In that case, what about inviting someone else?" "This time, a handsome guy who really has a promising future!" "Ah!" "There is one!" "There is one!" "Who?" "Who?" "Nodame!" "What kind of person?" "Tell me!" "Oi!" "What is it all about?" "Why are we heading to Japan again?" "It's an urgent wish of Maestro's, to celebrate the finish of the performance tour by having a party in Japan." "We have to go only for such purpose?" "I had planned to return to Paris!" "It's an enjoyable party with the meaning:" ""Let's do our best next year too!"" "You must attend it." "It's simply because Jijii needs a watchguard, right?" "!" "Right!" "What's wrong with that?" "There is no need for that!" "If Chiaki comes to the party, he will steal all of my girls!" "The leading role of the party... is ME!" "Go back to Paris... or just wherever you want to go!" "In return for that, say hi to Nodame-chan for me, OK?" " Hai..." " Ha..." "Ou!" "Oh, I hate beans!" "Christmas (Noel)" "It's Noel in the city..." "The 3-months performance tour is finally over." "My gifts from the tour are Jamon Serrano (ham) and caviar." "And..." "I wonder... how she's doing about this time... in an unfamiliar country... all alone at Christmas... obviously something's wrong with her..." "As I expected, Paris is jammed at Christmas." "I'm sorry." "I'll get off here." "She isn't home yet?" "She couldn't possibly throw herself..." "Gyahaha!" "Huh?" "I wonder if it's the castle for the Recital!" "No I think it's a little bit too much..." "Nodame definitely wants to drop by Mont-Saint-Michel." "Mm!" "Ah!" "Chiaki-kun!" "Senpai!" "What is it?" "I wish you had told me first you were returning!" "Returning to my own place, why do I have to tell you first?" "What are you doing at other people's place?" "I am now setting up a plan for a trip with Kuroki-kun." "Nodame's going to Loire at the end of the year and Kuroki-kun's going to with me." "A trip?" "Just the two of them?" "Chiaki-kun!" "It's not as you thought..." "If Chiaki Senpai has time, what about going with us too?" "Enough!" "I'm not going to worry anymore!" "Do whatever you want!" "Chiaki-kun!" "Ano..." "(she really worked hard on it)" "Why do I have to get out of my own house?" "Damn!" "Shall I go back to Stresemann's place now?" "Chiaki Senpai!" "Senpai?" "This is really Senpai, right?" "This smell..." "Shinichi-kun ~" "Mukya!" "Why are you ignoring me?" "When we haven't seen each other for a long time?" "That's my line to say..." "Nothing especially." "I'm not ignoring you." "Ah!" "I know." "You're angry because I put that Christmas tree in your place without asking you first, right?" "But Senpai didn't call me, so I had no chance to ask you first." "You could have called me, couldn't you?" "!" "But there was especially nothing I need to talk to you..." "Besides, Nodame was busy..." "Well, well, let's go home!" "The tree's decorations which will put colors to our love are waiting for us..." "I'm fed up!" "You're abnormal." "Just when I was going to be honest to myself..." "No, I had better not give it to her." "It's still not too late now for me to quit." "Senpai?" "What "love", huh?" "You said it just to amuse yourself..." "You said "I love you, I love you" but you never try to face it seriously!" "They are all just your playful fantasies!" "It's the same attitude as the one you have toward music." "As I thought, I can't be with you." "It's good that I said all of those words." "If I said those harsh words to her," "I guess with this, her attitude towards me Ore-Sama will be corrected.." "Have some sense of danger that I can leave you anytime!" "MUKYAAAAAA!" "Hmph!" "You're a man with a small ASSHOLE!" "With a man like you, I would be the one asking you to leave me first!" "To get mad just because of a Christmas tree?" "!" "Hmph!" "I can't believe this..." "She's really..." "Wait!" "This..." "Mukyaaaa!" "Judo!" "Ippon!" "(one score)" "I'm the one asking you to leave me first!" "Stop joking!" "The one joking... is YOUUUUUU!" "MUKYAAAAAAA!" "You!" "You'd better stop..." "HYAAAAAHHH!" "Eeeek!" "Nodame is always serious with my feeling!" "Why are you escaping?" "Just when I thought I was near, you all went farther away..." "Both Senpai... and music too..." "I was not... going farther away..." "Weren't you going to leave me just now?" "!" "Wa... waittt!" "I'll be killed..." "I understand." "I understand, so..." "How troublesome, really!" "This kind of girl!" "I understand your feeling." "Re... really?" "Yes..." "Why?" "Why am I the one whose attitude being corrected?" " They made up!" " Good!" "Good!" "Good!" "What a GREAT way to make up!" "Kyaaa!" "The sceneries finally became more vacation-like!" "Aah!" "Windmilsl!" "Windmills!" "They're like the illustrations in children' books, arent they?" "Vacation!" "Vacation!" "Finally the vacation will be starting from now, righttttt!" "?" "Oi!" "Well, I understand that Senpai is disappointed because we're not alone, but..." "No!" "...this is Nodame's first recital, you know." "I'll do my best so that everyone will be able to enjoy it!" "In order not to be beaten by Senpai's Europe debut," "I will perform as well as I could." "Ah it's true... it'll be Megumi's first recital." "I'm also looking forward to it very much." "And by the way, shall we have... a wedding ceremony in that Church too?" "Iyaaan..." "Don't do atereco in your brain!" "(=voice over)" "Pervert!" "Ne, Chiaki!" "I'm hungry!" "Let's stop by a restaurant somewhere!" "Ah, Tanya, we're meeting someone!" "I've promised to have lunch together in Loire, so we have no time to go to another place." "Oh really?" "Ne, Nodame, the man is really a handsome guy, right?" "Of course." "With a promising future?" "He's a genius!" "A genius and a Count?" "Which one should I choose?" "Aaaa..." "How fresh the air is!" "Alright!" "Where did you promise to meet him?" "No mistake it ought to be around here..." "Ah!" "There he is!" "Megumi-chan!" "Of all people, why him?" "Non!" "Non!" "Tanya!" " There, that one!" " Eh?" "Eh?" "Nodame, you're late!" "Sorry, sorry!" "This is Tanya!" "And this is Lucas Baudry-kun." "A ten-year-old with a promising future..." "Wow!" "Chateau!" "Welcome, Madame Noda!" "Here?" "!" "A cosplayer?" "!" "Today is "Meeting people with a special plan"" "Okay, there's no need to feel reserved." "Please come in!" "Plan...?" "I'm glad you came, Student-kun!" "How is it?" "Are you surprised?" "This is the room for Mr. and Mrs. Nodame." "(=Chiaki lost his name)" "Wuaaaaaa!" "Huh?" "No!" "Um..." "Sorry, I told him I was coming by my husband's car..." "Gyahaaa!" "Mukya!" "What a wonderful room it is, isn't it?" "That owner of this castle... he's quite a Mozart maniac." "Maybe I had better practise Mozart now..." "You've practised it before coming here, haven't you?" "Ano..." "What?" "Hah..." "This... this fastener at the back won't go up!" "Help me..." "This is the dress Youko made for you before you left Japan, right?" "Yes." "Did you get fat?" "Heh?" "!" "Fat?" "I got fat?" "What was that sound?" "Oh no!" "But it's still open!" "12 euro?" "That expensive?" "Just for Nodame's recital?" "Yes." "This is for administration fee." "But we are the guests of the sponsoring castle owner." "Everybody is a guest..." "Hmph!" "Frenchmen are really stingy!" "This is for Nodame's sake!" "I can't wait!" "Wait!" "Lend me some money." "Heh?" "For today's recital, I bought this dress, you know." "I have only... 7 euro left." "In the first place, is that a dress to come to a recital?" "Ha?" "But isn't it fashionable enough already?" "I mean they are dazzling people's eyes!" "Your jacket is leopard but your skirt is tiger pattern!" "This is not tiger but ZEBRA!" "I don't want someone like you to comment on my fashion!" "Look at yourself!" "Do something with that tastelesssss style of clothes!" "I don't want YOU to comment on my fashion either!" "I don't get what you mean!" "I mean you have bad taste!" "Oops!" "I can't believe this..." "You're really a rude man!" "That's why no girl likes you!" "But you also always size men up!" "That's rude!" "It can't be helped!" "Because that is all I have left!" "So stupid!" "A man like you is NOT my type so don't worry!" "I wonder what kind of student will perform this year..." "The young man who came 2 years ago was good." "I heard he took 2nd place in a competition in Germany." "Mmmh, will Nodame be alright?" "Ah..." "Nodame?" "!" "What's that look?" "Mozart!" "Nothing can be worse than this!" "How will it turn out?" "Nodame's first recital..." "Ano..." "How do you do?" "My name is Nodame." "Thank you very much... for coming to Nodame's 1st Recital today." "I will play happily, so everybody, please do your best listening to my performance." "It's YOU who should do your best, isn't it?" "Yes, I will do my best!" "Mozart" " Twinkle Twinkle Star Variation" "Twinkle Twinkle Star" "Ah..." "This tone color..." "Before I realize it, she understood it very well." "This piece... makes the Church vibrate... and... makes Mozart vibrate." "Analyse..." ""The Real Mozart"" "This is Mozart's..." "Twinkle Twinkle Star Variation." "Out of his 35 years of life, it was said that he spent 10 years travelling." ""Music which does not travel is unfortunate,"" "were said by many people in many languages." "The musical Mozart, prompted by chanson pieces, had composed this Variation." "Round... and beautiful grains of sound... just like a fish freshly pulled out of water, it's a flipping and flopping performance!" "Mozart" " Piano Sonata No. 18" "Piano Sonata No. 18" "Mozart's last piano sonata." "Baroque-style counterpoint which reminds us of Bach, it's a difficult piece." "In the usual places where we think a different melody will come out, the same melody as the 1st theme appears." "And when we think finally a different melody came out, it immediately disappears, it makes us feel confused and ask: "What's next?", yet it readily concludes." "That sense of balance..." "Mozart is... not someone you can ask where his theory lies, isn't he?" "She is playing it while understanding that much." "Amazing!" "Without realizing it, we are drawn into a different world..." "Incredible that it's her 1st recital!" "How can she produce such sounds?" "Me too... for the last one year I do intend to study piano as well as I could in Paris." "However, it was very hard for me." "Being alone for a long time, I feel lonely," "I feel scared, if I think my future will forever be like this." "It's impossible for me." "I won't be able to endure the hardship." "I'm not made for this." "Don't say such things!" "Bravo!" "It was a wonderful Mozart indeed!" "Okay!" "Mozart is over now..." "Ravel" " Miroirs "Alborada del gracioso" (Aubade of The Jester)" "Playing mezzoforte as fortissimo?" "Ravel." "Miroirs. (Mirror)" "Alborada del gracioso." "Since Nodame came to Paris, this is the first piece she played." "I can't do anything..." "Nodame is... is a frog in a well... the world is very vast." "It's only a few months since then, and yet..." "When I think I've come near her... she seems to move far away..." "As she can quickly... beat her own level of understanding," "perhaps I had better... be prepared for various things." "(not to be beaten)" "Bravo!" "Ravel is... good too!" "Only for personal use!" "Violators will be eaten by a mongoose!" "Everybody, thank you very much for coming to my Music Festival this year too." "And now... let me start it..." "Wolfgang!" "Wolfgang!" "Why do we have to dress up like this too?" "But for us to experience wearing the costume of that period is a rare chance..." "Besides, it's not so much different from a tuxedo." "It IS different!" "Now, for the people who'll perform, this way please." "Huh?" "I'm a conductor, so I don't perform..." "I heard that you are very good at violin... from Nodame-san." "Nodame!" "I'm sorry but I don't bring any instrument with me here." "I will lend you my violin." "YOU play, then!" "Even so, Tanya... you're even more... striking." "Naturally!" "I'm the Marie Antoinette of this castle!" "Ha?" "The son of the this castle's owner should come to this party too!" "Let me introduce you, Fish-chan!" "This is my son Roman." "Nice to meet you." "He's still single, and now he's looking for a wife." "Hai!" "Hai!" "I'm Nodame's friend..." "Oh?" "You're..." ""7 euro left"?" "The Recital's receptionist!" "It's over!" "My Paris!" "Nodame-san, thank you for a wonderful performance today." "I became your big fan now." "Would you please have a recital here again some day?" " Eh?" "May I?" " Mm!" "I'd like to ask you too." "Would you please perform at my salon party?" "Really?" "I hope you would accept!" "Because "Art grows by coming into contact with people's eyes and ears. "" "Though I was just parroting what Auclair-san said..." "Would you like to play at a recital?" "Don't you want people to listen to your piano?" "What do you play the piano for?" "Thank you!" "Thank you very much!" "Hmph!" "In any case without my piano.." "I would be a mere peasant girl from Russia." "In that case... why don't you also perform to attract them?" "Ha?" "Up to a moment ago, I also felt like you do." "Unable to bear the loneliness living in a foreign country," "I was going to escape." "However, after listening to Megumi-chan's performance, I received courage from her." "As expected, music is universal." "Let's play "Oboe Quartet" together." "Sure." "Mozart" " Oboe Quartet" "Ack!" "Senpai is escaping!" "I can't stand wearing this costume." "How could you do that recital in such a costume?" "By the way, Nodame got sudden work offers... for a recital at a salon party and again here at the castle!" "It's great, isn't it?" "Heh?" "That's great!" "Just as Mozart said, travelling is a good thing to do." "The meaning is a little different." "How was it?" "Nodame's 1st recital?" "It is extremely... bad for the heart!" "Stop fooling around, stupid!" "What was that Ravel at the beginning?" "Do you intend to kill me?" "!" "(from heart attack)" "But well, it was good." "I was moved to tears." "Hee hee hee..." "Next is Senpai's turn, isn't it?" "Senpai too, what about wearing this kind of costume and make a Europe debut?" "Okay, Andre!" "Who the heck is Andre?" "(=Andre Grandier, from Rose of Versailles)" "Andre..." "You, could you be..." "Ah!" "Mukyuu!" "(LOL, Nodame is a foot fetish?" ")" "Eeek!" "What's this?" "Mukiiii!" "What's that?" "A quarrel?" "They're just playing... though kids can't understand that." "Kkkkhhh!" "But look, she is doing "dogeza" now!" "dogeza?" "(=kneel down)" "That's cruel!" "Hai!" "Kids may only see till here." "Eh?" "A bit more, please!" "Are you sure?" "I'm going to play the piano, you know!" "Who knows I will be scouted for next year's Recital!" "I'll play first!" "No, I'm first!" "Return it to me, please!" "No!" "Got it!" "Phew!" "Good!" "I didn't know... you could play like that." "That's because I had been doing a secret crash training at school." "As to that Ravel... its reflection was a bit too strong..." "Ha?" "(=She was refering to the mirror or miroirs)" "What about the Twinkle Twinkle Star?" "Actually Auclair Sensei selected it for me." "As expected of Yoda, right?" "(= Auclair Sensei)" "Yoda?" "(=from Star Wars)" "Nodame... will study more things from now on." "So that they all want to listen to my piano again... so that they'll feel glad listening to it." "I'm going to practise harder." "Someday I'll surely be able to perform a piano concerto on the same stage with Senpai." "You..." "Eh...?" "She has been like this since she was in Japan... she seems to be always with me... and yet she isn't." "She embarks on a journey by herself... and without my realizing it, she comes back again."

"Mmm...well..." "Nothing changes..." "I bother to come here from Japan , you know!" "Who the heck are you?" "!" "Vienna" "Congratulations!" "Becoming a Finalist, you did it earlier than me, didn't you?" "What about you, Kiyora?" "How's Vienna?" "Mm." "While studying chamber music at school, I'm starting to prepare for Competition now." "To be honest it's my limit already, but hearing about you now, I wouldn't want to lose out to you." "Do your best up to to the last note so you won't regret it later." "Mm!" "Thanks." "Ganbare..." "Now, study, study!" "Ha!" "Till...?" "Huh?" "Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks..." "Is Senpai going to do this again tomorrow?" "Yes, as the piece I select from among the ones I've performed up to now." "But it's the piece you've failed in the 3rd Round..." "Wouldn't it be better for you to select one that you're especially good at?" "I can't let it remain that way." "I'm vexed." "I do remember the whole piece, but yet I made a mistake..." "Something was wrong with me." "Yes, it's true." "Huh?" "Nodame likes "Till" too." "It's enjoyable... and really merry, isn't it?" "True!" ""Till" resembles you, doesn't he?" "Eh?" "Always jesting back and forth... and then immediately escaping!" "I love you!" "Gyabooooo!" "Just when I thought you've gone away, you reappear." "Senpai's a demon!" "A devil!" "Don't whine!" "You're a man with a small asshole!" "Chiaki Senpai!" "She came!" "I love you!" "Chiaki Senpai!" "Then  in the end Till was caught... and killed." "(= not true)" "Heh!" "Gyabo!" "Is "Till" such a story?" "It's not merry at all, isn't it?" "And why is he like Nodame?" "What do you feel in your heart?" "There are times I feel like killing you!" "MUKYAAAA!" "Why is Nodame "Till"?" "Ahahahaha..." "Smetana Hall, Prague" "Platini International Conductors' Competition Final" "For the Final, we do private rehearsals with only the Juries present." "And then, that evening... the performance is conducted in the form of a Concert." "Chiaki... why does he have to choose "Till" again?" "Hmph!" "In any case it'll be the same as before." "What will Chiaki do..." "Will he apologize, or will he try to divert it with a joke?" "With this, the severe Competition will be over." "Let's enjoy it!" "Please." "(Richard Strauss" " Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks)" "What a good sound..." "He's laughing..." "The sounds are blending well ..." "What happened?" "When I first conducted an Orchestra, the thing Maestro taught me is... to respect music  and people... and those things will return to oneself." "So it's the Final now!" "How exciting, isn't it?" "But will Chiaki be alright?" "Isn't he in the dump because of last time's failure?" "He'll be alright!" "Let's go, let's go!" " We can't wait to see it, can we?" " Yes!" "It's completely different from the 3rd Round last time..." "And it's a completely different "Till" from Jean's too." "In contrast with Jean's flowing and pleasant performance despite the many sections somehow," "Chiaki, even in a short time like this, is showing us the structure of the original work, and is expressing the spirit of the piece in detail..." "He is showing us his strong will and intelligence." "This is... the last piece in this Competition." "Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto" "It is a famous piece praised as one of the Four Great Violin Concertos." "Starting from the 1st note of the 1st measure... all throughout the piece is entirely... full of beautiful singing melodies."

"I wanted to conduct this piece with an orchestra some day..." "This is a piece I have always adored..." "Bravo!" "Bravo!" "Bravo!" "It's over." "I enjoyed it very much."

"Don't get too carried away, OK?" "It's you!" "Though Jean was a little bad too, it's the Competition that was bad!" "But well, maybe to let a type like Chiaki win might be a good thing for Jean too." "Pokkiri sukkiri, right?" "(= snapped and felt good)" "Didn't I tell you not to get too carried away?" "!" "Mukyaaaaaa!" "Oh no!" "It's rayon?" "(rayon is cheap, unlike silk)" "Your girlfriend is cute, Chiaki." "She's not my girlfriend." "Your girlfriend is... a...amazing." "She is, isn't she?" "Yuko's wonderful, isn't she?" "No, that's not what I mean." "Moreover, since I met Yuko, only good things happen... though this time it's regretable for me." "Na, Chiaki..." "For the result, I want you to be the one informing Vieira Sensei." "Huh?" "Chiaki is my senior, right?" "I heard it from Sensei." "Here." "Vieira Sensei's and his Manager's mobile phone numbers" "Thank you." "If it's now, he might take you with him in his performance tour." "I envy you, Chiaki."

"Chiaki-kun's amazing!" "Ou!" "By the way... it's been a while since we last talked to each other." "As I expected, did you gave me a call because you missed me?" "Until the competition, I have to stay at Kyle Dune Sensei's house for lessons." "Since you won't be able to contact me by mobile phone, I thought of telling you in advance." "Eh?" "What about sending letters?" "If you have the time to do such things, you had better practice too, Ryu." "Bye!" "Say hi to the others for me." "About that..." "Kiyora?" "!" "Oh wow, Kiyora?" "Pass it to me." "Hello, Kiyora, how are ... ?" "It isn't connected..." "Ryu-chan?" "What's wrong?" "Ryu-chan!" "?" "Nodame, let's drink again at home!" "Heh?" "Again?" "I didn't drink at all." "I was just greeting people the whole time..." "Nodame can't drink anymore." "Geh!" "So you were drinking again?" "Why did you drink that much when you knew you're weak with alcohol?" "Because Yuko-syhan said it was delisyhious..." "You girls..." "Come!" "It's great that you won, isyhn't it?" "Senpai made one goal in." ""Since I met her, only good things happen" ?" "Because Milch suddenly fell ill... today this person will conduct!" "Senpai, it's great, isn't it?" "I'm this Oke's... official conductor?" "Bravo!" "D?" "!" "(LOLOL...is her cup size really D ?"
