  When I heard there was an anime about classical music students, you can imagine how excited I was to see it. I was somehow led to the live action series, which I promptly downloaded and started viewing. It immediately became a favourite of mine. I hadn’t ventured too much into the live action (drama) realm before this, mostly due to a prior experience with a drama which turned out to be the equivalent of a western soap-opera, but Nodame Cantabile was a welcome change…….(continued)

about

Omohide.com is my personal site, where I post my thoughts on various things, including anime, films, classical music, soundtracks, books. It's also the only outlet for my fanboyism of everything from Studio Ghibli =D. As well as the above, I enjoy (read: am obsessed with) the piano and composing. The site's name, which means "memories", is derived from the title "Omohide Poroporo", which is a favourite of mine.

And who am I? I'm your typical student-by-day-websurfer-by-night from Toronto, Canada. I live in Scarborough, which is part of the Greater Toronto Area. On the internet, I usually use the nickname "theowne", which doesn't particularly mean anything. You can email me at: theowne [AT] gmail [DOT] com.
