We did all the kisses with the last poll on romance, but now it's time to rock! Or Jazz out! Or do whatever the music commands us to do! I hope it's not evil!

I know absolutely nothing about these suggestions except Kids on the Slope (which I've seen a chunk of and liked a lot). 

Also UPDATES: currently finishing year end list in time for oscars. Also also, getting that now yearly ANTI-OSCAR stream going (tentatively for new week), albeit with a new hook.

Anyway! It's MUSIC TIME.

Nodame Cantabile would also have been a good choice to put on the list. It focuses on classical music and is also a romance. "Shinichi Chiaki is a first class musician whose dream is to play among the elites in Europe. Coming from a distinguished family, he is an infamous perfectionist; not only is he highly critical of himself, but of others as well. The only thing stopping Chiaki from leaving for Europe is his fear of flying. As a result, he's grounded in Japan. During his 4th year at Japan's top music university, Chiaki happens to meet Noda Megumi; or as she refers to herself, Nodame. On the surface, she seems to be an unkempt girl with no direction in life. However, when Chiaki hears Nodame play the piano for the first time, he is in awe at the kind of music she plays. To Chiaki's dismay, Nodame moves into the apartment next to his and finds out that she is head over heels in love with him. Nodame Cantabile tells the story of Chiaki and Nodame, as they not only learn to deal with each other, but learn lessons from one another as they strive for the top of the musical world."

I'm not usually someone who recommends, but I find Bocchi the Rock to be such a lovely piece about overcoming social struggles that also fully understands what being an introvert is like, especially speaking as someone who was in that place for a long time and still struggles with a lot of social stuff.
