Nodame Cantabile

Nodame Cantabile

The studious and uptight Chiaki is well-known as the top pianist of his school, and dreams of becoming a world-class conductor like his idol, Viera; but his fear of flying (which makes studying abroad impossible) combined with a recent break-up and dismissal from his piano instructor causes that future to seem both bleak and unlikely. After collapsing outside of his apartment, drunk, Chiaki inadvertently meets a young woman named Nodame who, while quite talented at the piano, is unclean, clumsy, and haphazard. Despite being almost polar opposites, the two begin to grow closer and work, together, to overcome the obstacles in their careers.

The personality of the main characters and the plot is similar. Shuichi is kind of stupid, gets excited over nothing and losts enthusiasm when his lover doesn't seems to return his feelings, but his love is true and persistent. Nodame is the same. Both of them love a man who is extremely popular, good looking and cold, and people don't get what they are doing together. And of course they want to be successful musicians.

The Morose Mononokean is not yaoi or shounen-ai, nor is it about authors or musicians. But if you liked the characters Yuki Eiri and would like to check out a fun supernatural show starring a character that looks just like him and has that same grumpy attitude, by all means give The Morose Mononokean a try!

And so the two Yuuris and the Russian champion Viktor set out to compete in a Grand Prix like none the world has ever seen!

Much like Gravitation, YOI deals with themes of emotional stress, LGBT relationships, and the pressure and difficulty that comes with fame. The characters in these series often deal with many issues realating to their career and realionships: from meeting deadlines, to losing weight, to coming out to the public about relationships, to disguising as a battery to avoid paparazi. Gravitation, however, puts more focus on the character's relationship while YOI focuses more on the character's career. Also YOI has more fanservice, so if you're looking for booty, Gravitation probably won't fulfil your desires as much.
