‘お嬢ちゃん’ Directed by Ryutaro Ninomiya

[shiningwizard]

Minori, on the Brink (Ninomiya Ryutaro, 2019)

A girl discontent and angry, fighting through another summer of cowards. Long scenes bearing out confrontation. A chorus of incidental characters that barely cross with her, building an oppressive ambience of the exchange, expectation and exploitation that exists between men and women. Kamakura not as a tourist destination but as people live and work in it. A girl’s body, time and tolerance not as others have designs on it but as she wants it. Great. Looked incredible too.

Nodame Cantabile

Year : 2006 | Country : JP | Nb of episodes: 11 + 2 movies

My rate: 9/10

Synopsis :

Based on the hit comic book by Tomoko Ninomiya, this is a fun-filled quirky romantic story of two very opposite people.

Megumi Noda, or "Nodame" is a piano student at Momogaoka College of Music. An extremely talented pianist who wants to be a kindergarten teacher, she prefers playing by ear rather than reading the music score. She is messy and disorganized, takes baths several days apart and loves to eat, sometimes stealing her friend's lunchbox when it is filled with delicacies.

Shinichi Chiaki, is Momogaoka's top student. Born into a musical family, he is talented in piano and violin and has secret ambitions to become a conductor. An arrogant multi-lingual perfectionist who once lived abroad in the music capitals of the world as a young boy, he feels mired in Japan because of a childhood phobia.

They meet by accident. Nodame quickly falls in love, but it takes much longer for Chiaki to even begin to appreciate Nodame's unusual qualities. Their relationship causes them both to develop and grow. Because of Nodame, Chiaki got the opportunity to lead a student orchestra and begins to have a broader appreciation of people's musical abilities. Because of Chiaki, Nodame faces her fears and enters a piano competition. Opportunities open up as both begin taking risks, stretching themselves far more than they ever thought possible.

Main cast :

Ueno Juri as Noda Megumi aka Nodame (Piano)

Tamaki Hiroshi as Chiaki Shinichi (Piano/Violin/Conducting)

Eita as Mine Ryutaro (Violin)

Koide Keisuke as Okuyama Masumi (Timpani)

Mizukawa Asami as Miki Kiyora (Violin)

Saeko as Saku Sakura (Contrabass)

Uehara Misa as Tagaya Saiko (Vocal)

Takenaka Naoto as Franz Strezemann (Milch Holstein by Nodame)

My thoughts on this drama :

Gyaboooooo! Beware, this word will get stuck in your head for life once you watch this drama. I didn't give it a 10 but it's as well. It will make you love classical music. And the cast is perfect. They couldn't have chosen a better actress than Ueno Juri for Nodame. She was born to play this part.

 A Favorite ?

YES!!!!!!!
