Nodame Cantabile
| I play the piano and only completed the 8th grade last year. It's all thanks to Nodame Cantabile for giving so many inspirations to improve my piano skill. I really want to learn violin too and may be the chinese instrument, Erhu. XD |
     |
| used to play piano, but also have quit due to my lack of enthusiasm for the instrument. now i just play guitar, bass and drums |
     |
| i played the tenor sax for a few years. Havn't touched it in a while though. Right now i'm playing the guitar :) <3 music |
| I have a tiny, tiny, tiny bit of experience with the guitar, but that is it. So... no, I have not really played any instruments and do not currently play any either - but I love this series to death. Probably because I have a huge respect for classical and orchestral music. I assume that a chunk of the fanbase does love it because they play an instrument and have similar desires as the characters in the series do, but there are many other reasons to love Nodame Cantabile as well. |
| Violist over here! :] I really think that Nodame isn't has fun unless you do play an instrument~! |
| I play the piano, and i recently starded learning the cello to. Its soo hard ^^' |
| Find your freedom in music <3 |
| flute but i wish i played the piano xD |
| I played violin through out my school years, so learned it for kinda 12 years at least :) I can play a bit of guitar and irish tin whistle (still learning them both), and well piano on a very basic level haha :D |
 |
| I played trumpet in my school years, but I started learning woodwinds on the side during that time as well. For my freshman year of college I switched to bassoon... And I haven't looked back since! I actually learned about Nodame Cantabile maybe a little over a month after I started learning the bassoon. I had very little knowledge of anime/manga at the time. So yes, once I learned of Nodame Cantabile and saw that it was about music and had musical instruments I had to check it out being the total band geek I am... |
 |
| I tried piano around 5th grade, but was self-taught so I never got past the basics. Drums in 9-10th grade and currently studying guitar. |
| Hmmm, I play piano & harmonica. Both at an amateur level. Though I'm not sure that's the reason I'm enjoying this or the reason I started watching. It's rated in the top 25 anime here right now & I heard the OP accidentally which brought me to look at what the series was about. What has kept me here is the comedy really. I guess I'm also curious about how the story will develop and whether or not a relationship between chiaki & nodame will develop further. |
| Such junk... |
| I play the cello. |
| I've played Guitar Hero. Does that count? Just kidding. I don't play any instruments, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying the anime immensely. I believe Nodame Cantabile has made me more interested and respectful towards classical music. |
 |
| guitar<piano<violin for me XD |
| Korean family here >:v so played piano when I was... 5? stopped right when I went to middle school. I wish I hadn't. But now I play alto sax. I've had it for.. 5 years now? I played recorder for a year too. I want to get an EWI right now and I fail with string instruments |
 |
| I used to play the Violin in elementry school. I really miss it now~ |
     |
| I've been studying piano for 9 years, percussion for 5 (however, I quit this past year), and another instrument for 8. |
| I play the guitar, and have been playing for 6 years now. I used to play the accordion as a small kid, and played the trumpet for a year a few years back for school. |
| Don't play a damn thing, still like the show though. |

| I love instrumentals but I've never played one or not good at it or was destined to never learn playing =p |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Don't play any instruments but I was in 3 different Choruses for 6 years. (elementry, jr. high, high school) Still enjoy the show though ^^ |
 |
| Well I'm an instrument cripple! I'm not talented at all in playing, but I enjoy it anyways, besides it's always fun for me and others. So it's guitar and drums for me. I still try to learn a thing or two on other instruments like synthesizer, bass guitar n' instruments I'm unaware of their name o.O I wanna learn playing harp and piano of course and violin would be nice :D Duh...I can only listen to music, not make one, but I'm happy enough this way! ^^ |
 |
| Playing oboe, learning flute. Played the clarinet, though... for only a year before switching ^.^; |
| Been playing the clarinet for 5 and a half years, self taught in piano for about one year and counting. Musical experience prompted me to start watching, but I think I would still love it equally regardless of whether or not I play any instruments. |
 |
| Played clarinet since 6th grade, so around 7 years of playing. Had piano lessons but I lack the talent so I quit. Learned other instruments such as trombone, trumpet, saxophone and even oboe at one point. I sing as well. But, I don't think playing an instrument was the reason why I liked this show that much. :P |
| I played Piano, Clarinet and Guitar. I wish I still played at least one of them. |
| I played flute for a long time. |
| Well I have played Trumpet when I was in elementary and middle school and was even in a band as an adult...I have no clue if theres a connection between that and this anime though since I never thought about it till now XD |

| Count me in on the rare few that don't play an instrument. I do have to disagree with the people here saying this show might not be as fun if you don't play an instrument though. I've taken quite a liking to listening to classical music at an early age thanks to my grandfather. I did play a little piano and percussion as a kid but never pursued it past elementary. In short, I've forgotten everything and can't play anything now- not one bit! But I still love listening to others play and that's why this show is more than fun ahahaha |
 |
| I played a bit of piano in school, but Nodame kinda made me want to re-learn everything again xD. Though it has so much spontaneous comedy and romance it would be hard to just chuck it under the music genre. Overall it's a great uplifting experience. |

| Well, I love Nodame Cantabile, and yes, I did used to play clarinet in band when I was in school, so I do know a little about music, yet the series is a romantic comedy that would appeal to non musicians as well! |
| I don't play any instrument but still love the show. I'm a listener. |

| I played piano for 1 year and violin for 3. Never got good but I understand the basics and some music theory. I'm sure people appreciate music anime in correlation with their degree of musical expertise. |
 |
| I took up piano lessons last year, maybe some 9months ago, solely for my own entertainment and because I've always wanted to play *something*. I'm too old (28) to ever be teacher or concert material, but that doesn't really bother me, I don't know music theory either, my lessons are more practical - going through various pieces. No classics yet though, only some small pieces (recently Alexandre Desplat's 'The Meadow'), and maybe that's too little after 9 months, but I don't mind yet ;D it's cool to be able to press some keys and make a bit of music resound in the room, that alone makes me happy :) I stumbled on Nodame Cantabile on the TwoSet Violin youtube channel, as an example of an anime where they get the animations right xd |

| I haven’t watched this yet, but my japanese piano teacher recommended it to me lol. I’ve also been playing the cello for over 10 years. It’s always hard to get into a series that has unrealistic portrayals of musicians for me, but this seems really genuine. |

| I play piano and violin. Have been doing so for almost 8 years now |
| I used to play the piano when I was young but I wasn't really passionate about it to begin with, I just love piano as a personal hobby, alongside with playing an acoustic guitar. |
