Yes, you read that right, we’re picking up the sequel to the infamous Josei manga, Nodame Cantabile. Now, why am I making this announcement instead of the usual Idiot in charge?
Well, this is what I got whe nI logged on to irc today:
.:15·46·38:. -MemoServ- please release the chapter of Nodame opera hen, I’ve sent you the link on msn, ask lazy to help you with the bot. Thanks
So… yeah.
Anyway, What’s this sequel all about? Well, apparently, it covers the return of Nodame and Chiaki to Japan, and Nodame’s first recital there and Chiaki’s first opera concerto. Sounds purposeful, doesn’t it? Well, you’ll just have to read on to find out. Also on another note, we apologize if this isn’t up to our usual standards, but we lost the cleans the first time around and then a lot of crazy stuff happened. (V2 anyone?)
Well, anyway, grab the release on IRC, leave comments, good or bad, we need them.
oh and we also NEED, Japanese translators and editors to help us out with various series (Nodame included), so please apply at viscans(at)gmail(dot)com.
See you next time.
I just downloaded it from irc. This is the first time I download your project. And I really enjoy your work. Thank you so much for scanlating Nodame.

Sorry, I forgot to write this. In page 27, Nodame said “After all, I want to see Mine and Masume again…”, it’s actually ‘Masumi’, not ‘Masume’. But it’s only a small mistake. It’s not really a problem. Thanks again

what the hell is an opera concerto…?
that terminology makes no sense?
Comment by john — January 21st, 2010 @ 5:13 AM
heh, well, I thought so too, but it lays emphasis on the way it’s currently worded, so we left it as that.

Thank goodness you scanlated it since I just finished the manga. T_T
I felt so empty after reading it all…and Idk for sure if watching the anime and waiting for episodes would be able to fill the gap of wanting to read more of this awesome series♥
I sure hope we get to read the rest that have been released so far :’]
Good luck to you all! ^^

Thank you for starting this series. Are you still planning on working on this? It isn’t listed in either your active or dropped projects.

Thanks so much for taking on this project! I hope you have enough staff to finish it, because Nodame is one of my all-time favorites and I MUST be given the opportunity to keep reading it.
