Anime Vice Anime/Manga News

In spite of reports that a new set of one-shot manga spinoffs based on Nodame Cantabile's colorful side characters is in the works, word is now that creator Tomoko Ninomiya and Nodame Cantabile are off the docket for the time being, because Ninomiya is back in the hospital-- this time with acute appendicitis. Ninomiya took time off recently when she was giving birth, and shortly thereafter was struck with carpal tunnel syndrome, which forced her to take off more time.

No return date has been set yet, but plans will be announced in an upcoming issue of Kiss magazine (which serializes Nodame Cantabile) and its official website, so check back here for the details as we get 'em.
