Nodame ROCKS. Ahaha, she's awesome. Loving the little text messages that Nodame and Chiaki sent back and forth. Good stuff. I'm really happy to see where they relationship is going (even though it hasn't exactly developed, it's still touching).

Hilarious scene when chiaki was undressing too. Ahaha, I love how they portray the gay people in this. Too funny.

3 more eps, I'll be so sad when it's over.

Loved the episode. It was hilarious how they put up that Japanese dubbing part where they were suppose to speak German. I was wondering how they were gonna handle that. I was surprised that they did all three perlimanires in sucha short time but then again there is only 3 episodes left. It was great to hear Nodame play all those songs especially the last one, L'isle Joyeuse. I am definitely looking forward to the next episode.

Aww...Nodame. <3 I wonder, too, where she gets her confidence from, considering people are always telling her she's wrong. :P For a little while I thought the competition wa a dream sequence, kept expecting her to wake up! lol

Their relationship is really touching. I wish it had more time to develop and blossom, but hopefully the end will be good.

Have to agree here, this episode was real good. I like the direction evertyhing is taking at this point. It really makes the series enjoyable on all aspects to watch.

Especially agree with Xinil about the relationship between chiaki and nodame.

Loved the part where the skeptics after watching Rising Star Orchestra perform started lining up trying to join! I was half-hoping Chiaki would take off his shirt too.

Can't wait for the next episode.

Hahaha! Well, it's not likely I don't care about the relationship between Chiaki and Nodame. I'm more interested between Kiyori and Mine. Hahaha! They're relationship is just something... hell?! XD

That gay part in this episode is much more better portrayed in the live-action. I really LMAO'd there. XD Hahahaha!

True... Nodame is the best, which is why she's the title character i guess.... :P

3 episodes left :'(

Then I'll have to wait for The Paris Chapter to get fansubbed when it's broadcast... :(

Nodame’s just awesome beyond doubt. Every piece was amazing; the dedication she’s putting into playing as she should and improving because she wants to go with Chiaki… I can surely say it now: she’s one of my favorites characters. I really hope she can win the competition. Love you, Nodame.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

It is SO good to see Nodame playing and being in the spotlight for a bit Chopin's Etude No.4 sounds hella difficult.

Glad Chiaki at least send her mails of encouragement, at least its some improvement

She sure hates Schubert xD I loved how they provided an excuse in the form of japanese dub, instead of randomly inserting it. Chiaki is amazing, he can speak German as well. Nodame, I keep loving you more and more. The determination, the motivation... loooved her performance and glad she earned the very positive response.

Woah, that orchestra was mind-blowing. I am in love with this show's music and the portrayal of it. Her chopin is so so so amazing!! I want her to win so damn much! At the same time, I am concerned about past. For now, she has impressed the main judge and the audience. Her l'isle was amazing as well, so lovely! It all depends on her mood in the end, quite picky but very interesting. She better wins!

Chiaki orchestra really make sensation. That violoncellist was really good. He also seem to attract a lot of homosexual.

I loooove Nodame piano! She his like I was before, like to play fast song with a lot of Staccato! I'm also really a fan of Debussy, I played Clair de Lune, even if I wasn't that good, I managed to go through it.

I didn't expect the new guy to have the hots for Chiaki and Kiyora screaming for Masumi was hilarious.

Really love the scene where Chiaki is spiritually helping out Nodame with the piano. It just shows how close they are to each other.

Loved Nodame's Chopin, the Debussey piece was pretty decent too.

Nodame will get 1st place free.
