Nodame Cantabile - S03

Shinichi Chiaki is quickly making a name for himself as the principal conductor of the revived Roux-Marlet Orchestra, while Megumi "Nodame" Noda has come a long way as a pianist at the Conservatoire de Paris. But tension builds between them as Nodame feels left behind by Chiaki's growing success and his close friendship with the legendary piano prodigy Rui Son. Ignoring the advice of her teacher Professor Charles Auclair, Nodame enters another piano competition, hoping to kickstart her own performing career. Meanwhile, the people around Chiaki and Nodame are facing their own turning points. As Chiaki, Nodame, and their friends move forward on their separate paths, they have to not only try to stay true to themselves, but also remember where it all began.
