Every day the sun rises, sets, and the Nodame Cantabile series drifts closer to obscurity. Some say it has been there for years, but if you stumbled upon the anime and need more of it, there is more in the manga.

Where To Start The Nodame Cantabile Manga After The Anime?
If you have watched through Season 3 of the Nodame Cantabile anime and want to continue the story in the manga, you can start at Chapter 136.
What to Expect From The Nodame Cantabile Manga?
Nodame Cantabile, the anime, on its own, is perfectly fine. However, when transferring that love of the anime to the manga, it becomes less fine. You see, the anime, while quite long, also skipped over quite a bit. It is not enough that you need to go back and read it from the beginning necessarily, but enough that you should be aware that things were skipped since they can add some context to events.
The long and short of it is that if you enjoyed Nodame Cantabile, reading the manga from the beginning is worth it, but not necessary if you just want to see how things end.
Is The Nodame Cantabile Manga Over?
The Nodame Cantabile manga is complete. It ended in 2010 with Chapter 150.
Will There Be A Nodame Cantabile Season 4?
Given that the third season was labeled the Finale, I don’t think they will make more Nodame Cantabile anime. Even if it didn’t actually adapt the end of the series.
