The Nodame Cantabile manga won the 2004 Kodansha Manga Award, and the English translation was named by the New York Public Library in 2006 as one of the Books for the Teen Age. Both the manga and animé are available in English translation, but the live-action series is readily available to view on-line with excellent English subtitles. It has been adapted into to television series: a live-action drama (the one I'm watching) and an animé. Nodame Cantabile was originally serialized in a magazine, then released to 23 manga volumes. I'm currently watching the live-action version of this appealing Japanese series about students at a music academy.
