Nodame Cantabile Chapter 136 Discussion

Alright. This is my second time rereading and I have yet to rewatch the Anime fully. Gonna get to that after finishing Opera Hen.



I truly love love love this series so much and the Manga was just as good as the Anime. I should have listened to the songs more, though. The emotion and impact this series brings out and all the relationships, romantic and platonic, were all executed so beautifully. Even the romance, which I thought was a flaw at first, was done extremely well. A reread was worth it because I got to see the little things and focus on the dialogue more.



I adore all the characters. This time, I ended up respecting pretty much all of the side characters, even Rui, Tanya and Jean. Everyone has so much life and colour in them.



Anyway, I will start Opera Hen soon. I remember not being very fond of it when I first read it so let's hope for the best this time.

wtf kind of ending was that. absolutely awful. no closer for the readers. i can't believe the last line was "that again?" worst last line ever.

Lack of piano concerto hurts me.i know right!? they didn't give us anything!!!!!



urgh i'm so pissed. 1/5 for this chapter.



I hope the upcoming anime gives a better ending.

And scene.  the ending wasn't bad, but it didn't have nearly as much closure on most of the plot arcs that it should have.



9/10 overall, and the docked point comes from the way it ended.

sighhh, this manga was tooo good to deserve such a BAD ending :(

I can't believe that was it... I was so hoping on a wedding (bit unrealistic, but I can dream). Now I really can't wait until it is December so I can see how Nodame and Chiaki are doing.

i dont think i was happy with this finally chapter - nothing really developed and disappointed about that mainly  :/ Agreed. I guess we'll get a proper ending in the upcoming Bangaihen manga.

no Nodame/Chiaki concert? >< I can't believe its over D:!! I still loved it

The best manga ever and it came with a terrible ending. What IS IT about the Japanese and bad endings?



*Sigh. Just so disappointing. :(

Really good ending. I highly enjoyed this title.

QFT

It's not that it is just over... Was I mistaken, or did Chiaki really speculate that him and Nodame weren't even a couple anymore? I know it was greedy (and unrealistic) to want to see the family they could have had together. I imagined a boy just as off his rocker as Nodame, and a bossy little girl like Chiaki. Who has to learn cooking and cleaning from her Dad. Not her mom. And maybe Nodame is a unconventional music teacher, who teach elementary school students music from home. Chiaki will eventually settle down as a professor of music. And their children are just as talent in music as their parent are. And They Lived Happy Ever After! I know that was an unrealistic fantasy. But to end it as ambiguously as it did, made me drop my score. I couldn't see a kiss, a grope, a reaffirmation of love, nor my concerto? No just a" I thinks that counts as a break up". I am very disappointed.

What are the details on the side story?
