Nodame Cantabile: Finale Trailer Online!

I find pianos sexy

 
 
Music sure is in these days. The Nodame Cantabile manga may have just ended, but a side story manga, two live action series, and the 3rd and finale anime adaptation is coming around. As you can tell from the 30 second teaser, piano's are played and some dude hits on someone dressed like Bach... which is hot.
 
With all of this buzz I've really wanted to check it out. In fact, yesterday at the comic shop I saw a few volumes in the "Buy 1 manga, get 3 free." Of course, there were absolutely no first volumes...
 
(here's a trailer for the first live action movie while we are at it)

Didn't actually use much (if any) new footage. :(
  Still damn excited though.

Actually, it is not just some dude hitting on Bach. It is the story's male protagonist, Chiyaki, finally giving in with the story's female protagonist, Nodame, who at that point is dressed as Mozart. Yeah... it makes more sense if you've read that arc.
 
I'm REALLY excited about this. Much because of the two polar opposite pairing romance and the occasional over-the-top slapstick humor. Nodame is a weird but very much likable character with all the antics that revolves around her. The actress who plays the live-action Nodame does it so good she basically is the character. There are only two reasons you would want to watch this show either it is because of the male protagonist, who works hard to become a orchestra conductor, or because of Nodame because she is what she is.

I didn't like how the second season had so little episodes where things looked rushed. I still have enough interest in Nodame Cantabile where I want to see the third season so I'm hoping this one isn't rushed as well. And Mishakun is right, John. Nodame dressed up as Mozart for her piano concert in the second-to-last episode of the second season and Chiaki finally gave into her at that point.
