Nodame Cantabile Chapter 116 Discussion

I really like the new dynamic they developed in this chapter, I hope everything turns around for Nodame.



also, THOSE BOOTS ARE AWESOME!  lol

Chiaki is such a... guy. If I were her I'd throw him out the same way he used to do to her.

THIS IS AN MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.

                ----------------------------------------

                hmm...looks like chiaki see's something with the pieces that Nodame are practicing. I wonder what it could be.

I love the emotional play Nodame has with Chiaki in these later chapters. Nodame isn't just the wacky-skilled-piano player, with limited emotional development. No... limited isn't really the word... just not truly expanded upon. We've seen her love of Chiaki, her love of anime, love of music, her love of Chiaki's food... love of His smell. But this is more of the why of Nodame, then just her reactions. I mean I was nearly crying when she was.



She's aware of how other see her. She's aware of her deficiencies. She is learning to care about what they are; and has a desire to change. And she isn't afraid to take Chiaki to task for his neglect of her emotional wellbeing. I'm feeling like their relationship has reached another plateau. As  well as this manga.
