Nodame Cantabille

assalamualaikum.

i am addicted to Nodame Cantabille now.

yeah, i know, this show is like, what, aired on NTV7 back in my secondary school. i didnt like this show on that time; i thought that it was too ridiculous, too 'anime-like', too overacting and exaggerating. but, well... i'm in my 2 weeks holiday now, i have nothing to do (actually, a LOT of things to do but i pretend that they dont exist for the mean time) so i just browsing up crunchyroll.com, caught my eyes on this drama and i think to myself, 'yeah, there's nothing wrong to layan a stupid drama during a holiday. i mean, who wants to use their brain watching CSI during holiday anyway?'

it turned out that this drama is, well... a little bit foolish like what i'm expecting, but it is really not too bad either... the storyline originated from an anime, so of course, this drama had a lot of tak logik scenes just like in the anime too (i dont understand why they did this. i mean, it is acceptable in anime, but in the show of REAL people... i found it rather stupid). the storyline might sounds tak logik too, (it is logic FOR ANIME only) but it is no doubt, interesting and i could say... unique.

noda megumi or 'nodame', is a very talented girl, or maybe extremely talented, a gifted pianist who could play a complicated piece such as schubert starting from the age of about only 10 years old. growing up, she knew how to read the music score but cant hardly follow it. the special thing is, she could played all the pieces simply by memorizing them by ears. it means that, she cant play the piece by reading the score, but rather listen to the piece, memorizing the sounds and playing the piece according to her memory. but because of this, her chords sounds rather sloppy and messy.

other weird things are, this girl doesnt like to take a bath, claiming herself as someone's wife and her room is like tempat pembuangan sampah. haha.


nodame is certainly a genius. this is the main point that captured my attention. she might be weird, immature, keanak-anakan and too innocent that make her looks stupid, but her talent is simply amazing. because of her personality, she could make the piece sounds pure and full of emotion.

ahh, how i wish i could be a genius who could memorize the whole engineering book without reading it. haha.

chow.
