Speaking of Nodame Cantabile, it seems to be enjoying a bump from the release of its TV drama adaptation. ComiPress shares the latest Tohan Top 10, and Nodame occupies three spaces on it, with the most recent volume just ahead of the first and third. It’s like the Cartoon Network Effect, only with live actors.
And what does the Daily Yomiuri think of that program?
“[I]t displayed potential for the first 15 minutes.”
In other multi-media news, Anime News Network notes the joyous arrival of the Sgt. Frog anime in February, and that the invasion began a little early.
And last but not least, that trailer for the Death Note sequel is really, really creepy. But so is the trailer for the first one.
