Oh my, did that guy really? Nodame's play entirely depends on her emotions, it's so surreal, haha. She's amazing though, everyone is going to know her as the winner soon.

Yes. This is the story from the start. Nodame is a good pianist who just wants to have fun with the piano. She doesn't have the motivation to work hard. At the moment her motivation is following Chiaki to Europe.

Nodame playing was my favourite part of this episode! I think the final episode is going to be BIG.
BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity.

In Nippon, we trust.

We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本

I believe in freedom of expression.

I know this is an old post, but I'll just reply to it anyway, in case it helps.

I guess it's not the most engaging in many regards, but yeah that's precisely the point, which is why the judge says at the end "maybe she's still a baby". She's too easily swayed by short-lived emotions, and instead of depicting Debussy's emotions, she musically makes up an entirely different piece based on her current emotion on the point.

Not that the musician's current state of emotions doesn't have much to do with their performance, it certainly does affect it. But the issue is she doesn't really have a thread of consistency, and instead quite literally just plays whatever is on her mind. In other words, she's a baby.

Which also means, she doesn't take her pianism so seriously. To begin with, she's not even fully attempting to understand the piece she's playing anyway.
