Synopsis

Yukihisa Matsuda, principal conductor of the Rising Star Orchestra, arrives in Paris to perform Wagner's Tannhäuser Overture as a guest conductor for the Recyl Symphony Orchestra. When Matsuda overhears the orchestra members praising Shinichi Chiaki, the budding Japanese conductor of the Roux-Marlet Orchestra, he can barely contain his contempt at there being another "Black-Haired Noble" in the same city. Freshly dumped by his mistress following the performance, Matsuda catches Chiaki and takes him out to drink under the pretense of discussing career. But much to Chiaki's chagrin, the subject soon turns to Chiaki's own special someone.

The upside is that this is an entertaining side story, retaining a lot of the quirky ...

Nodame Cantabile has quickly become one of my favorite shows of all time but this OVA is just yikes yikes yikes.

I could overlook the show's mildly stereotypical treatment of its gay characters and its weird sexual harassment "comedy" with Stresemann as those are things you kind of just need to look past when viewing anime, especially older titles, but this was the straw that broke the camel's back. The character this OVA focuses on(I don't even remember his name) has no redeeming qualities, and isn't likeable or funny or interesting to watch. I was actually really confused for the first 5 or so minutes of ...
