Once again, the overall story is lovely and wholesome. The character development of both Chiaki and Nodame is extremely welcome and heartwarming - seeing the progression of their careers in Paris makes for an interesting watch. With a welcome return of some of the previous season's characters, the new cast are very welcome - each with their own enjoyable character arcs, traits, and flaws.
The sound, beautiful as the first season. The artwork, a straight upgrade (even if their faces still look weird to today's standard). The pacing was rapid and each story point lands home, a straight improvement on the previous season.
