Idols are not counted as performing artists?
Other forgotten gems: Detroit Metal City (about death metal and probably best comedy anime ever), Nitaboh: Tsugaru Shamisen Shiso Gaibun (story of inventor of new shamisen playing style), Sero Hiki no Gōshu (Isao Takahata take on orchestral music and fairy tales). |

Lots of stuff in this list that I want to check out. And I'm going to add to the chorus of Nodame lovers. Your Lie in April is really good melodrama but I'm personally more invested in stories like in Nodame Cantabile that I can relate to. Then again Your Lie in April is more visually interesting. I'd say it really comes down to how much I adore the characters in Nodame.

This is a pretty good list,but there are a lot of performing arts anime that weren't included on this list like "Kaliedo Star." Although,it was used last week,this would have been far more appropriate on this list than the other one.

You and me both. I marathoned the 2005 version last year on Crunchyroll, and was sad when I found out that the first half sold so poorly that they wouldn't release the second. It's a shame, since a lot of the most dramatic content happens in that second half.
Idols could probably get an entire column all on their own, and music in general does have a slot in Your Lie in April (despite the obvious musical style differences). |

I would definitely have dropped NANA into that list, not so much as a show filled with music but as a story shaped by a kind of music and its impact on the people living its lifestyle.

Since when is Kabuki ancient? Its old for sure and defiantly old for arts accessible to the common citizen but its not ancient. Bugaku is ancient though no one in their right minds would make an anime about it.

I'm also in the large group of fans waiting for Sentai Filmworks to release the second half of Glass Mask. Alas, it'll come out when the manga does (which is probably never).
It's such a shame, as the second half is overall better than the first. |

That's always the peril of "it gets better later on" motif - there may not be a chance for "later on" if they don't make the "early on" good enough to grab enough buyers. |

Nodame has a character who's an opera singer, but she only shows up a couple of times. For the record, the only thing Your Lie in April has over Nodame is that it's the more recent of the two, and that shouldn't be a judging factor. |
