The announcement we made the last time was not accurate about this episode.  This is not the Opera-hen story.  This is a completely original, extra episode that falls between the end of Nodame Cantabile the main series and Nodame Cantabile Opera-hen.  It’s spring.  Nodame is getting very close to graduating from the Conservatoire.  Chiaki is keeping himself busy professionally.  And here comes the middle-age crisis…

P.S.

If you want some opera goodness, grab this CD of excerpts from the Magic Flute that accompanied this latest volume of manga.

It’s another RAINBOW.  It’s another episode I need to catch up with ^_^;;

As I lived closer to Kyoto than Yui and Co. does, my school trip to Kyoto happened when I was in 6th grade.  We did visit Kinkaku-ji like they did.  This was a year before the restoration of 1986-1987, so the main building was nowhere near as shiny as it looks now.  I know I wasn’t too terribly impressed by how it looked back then.  Nontheless, Kyoto is pretty fun place to visit.  If you get a chance to visit, you should try visiting Kyoto, even if it’s a cliche spot, along with making anime pilgrimage to Akiba etc.

P.S.
This was my translation #800.

Welcome, but don’t get comfortable yet.  We’re still trying to recover frostii.net domain after the domain was hijacked.  I’ve only set this up as a backup, just in case the recovery doesn’t work out.  The site should be mostly operational.  The tracker itself is probably working, but none of the torrents have been converted to use it.  If we happen to recover the .com domain, we will move back to that, and I’m going to NOT transfer all new comments between now and recovery.  Unless we make a new release on this .net domain, which is likely…  Stay tuned.

Update 1: I just remembered that I didn’t copy the tracker, so it won’t be working.  And none of the torrents would be available too, but none of them would be working, so that’s not much of a loss.

Update 2 (May 1): Now I was told that it may take another 5 days to recover the domain.  Pain in the ass.

Update 3 (May 7): As you can see, the site has been restored! Yay us!  And big thanks to Arabianswan for getting everything straight.

Here’s the special episode included with the first DVD release in Japan. It turns out to be a prelude to the series, that is, it’s actually a link between Paris Hen and Finale. Accordingly, we’ve called it episode 0, and it is truly the last part of Finale. The next special, Opera Hen, stands on its own, and there may be more than one of them, as the Opera Hen manga is not complete yet.

This episode focuses as much on the side characters as it does on Nodame and Chiaki. We get to catch up with Mine and Kiyora and to see more of Jean and Yuki. It’s a lot of fun. Bon appetit! (Yeah, it’s a mixed metaphor, but my French isn’t up to “Good viewing!”)

Note that this episode is only available in SD, because it’s from a standard DVD source.
