Nodame: Paris is the 2nd season of Nodame Cantabile... although shorter than the 1st season it provides a great 'bridge' to the 3rd and final season.
This season focuses more on the relationship between Nodame and Chiaki and Chiaka's dream of becoming a world-class conductor. The humour, as always, is sensational and the music is amazing...
The artwork is somewhat better than the first season however I wasn't as impressed with the OP and ED pieces. The introduction of several new characters brings new life to the series as they move into a new life in Paris.
This season felt a little more 'mature' in that the characters had grown up and were faced with more serious issues. Nodame is always Nodame but you can see her progress as you move through the series - if only Chiaki would quit stalling and make up his mind! Gyabon!!
