Finally found it, sorry for the early post ~just got excited.

The start was really funny, with a simple argument and Nodame's silly food critic made this really lively. Lol, never knew Nodame would tease Chiaki that much.

It's been what? how many years had past? Lucas all grown up, ey.

Love the counter-attack of Chiaki,

Just wonder if that was really what she translated, anyway, it's really funny

But I was expecting more from them ~Chiaki and Nodame

Where can I see this OVA?

Lucas Beaudry (not Bodley like sub has written) has grown up and is 15 years old now (compared to beginning which was 10 and voiced by Rina Satou). His voice deepens and sounds like Yuuki Kaji (and it was wrong... he was Hiro Shimono)! He's in love with Yuiko!

It was too fast that I feel it ends so fast and sudden, and I later realized that it was only 10 mins.

That was hilarious!! I wish it was a full episode long... even though it was mostly filler, plot-wise.

Guess we wait until Opera-hen now!

Really funny OVA. I'll miss Nodame Cantabile even more now >_<#

Loved how Lucas swayed Yuiko away from Chiaki, I can understand his envy ^_^

Only complaint was that it was too short...

Really odd, I cannot get this ep (Frostii sub) to play without crashing. I've had no problems with any of their other encodes, and actually can't recall any videos killing my players (plural) in at least a year or two.

ETA: Nevermind, out of the blue my system decided some codecs were corrupt and all mkv files stopped working. File works fine after reinstalling codecs and players.

Ova's don't really need a point, especially when they're done as fluff to accompany the DVD's. In that way this one acomplished it's low goal of providing some swift cute comedy. Now if you were telling me this was an stand-alone OVA (like the latest Higurashi Rei and Shakugan no Shana S are) then yeah I would agree with you. I give it a 7/10 because, while not really having a point (or coming up with a proper conclusion) it had me smiling all the way.

Couldn't have said it better. Apparently people want deep moving plots for ten minute extras-exclusives thrown in for the fans buying the DVDs. Although maybe people had higher expectations due to the previous OVA's of this series. The first Finale OVA was a sweet catch up episode with some of the forgotten season 1 characters. So in a sense, this one only had the comedy to go for it so I can see a where a bit of the hate comes from, but it's still silly.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

I was hoping this ova would be more eventful and a continuation of the 11th ep. It was a little entertaining but I found it to be pretty pointless and way too short.

6/10.

What? Since when is 6/10 hating? If you dislike it, then it shouldn't even be above a 5! Anyways, I give it another 7/10. Twas just as enjoyable as the rest of these last 2 seasons (excepting their climaxes of course).

Урю The only thing they don't adapt is Opera-hen(1 last volume of manga if I'm not mistaken). It would be good to get 1-2 more OVA's but it won't happen.

Overall liked this OVA. It was quite funny

Didn't really added more to the story and felt more like a filler, good that they didn't added this to the main story or it would have rather been sad! It was actually pretty funny to see but well pretty useless in the end.

After finishing the third season, I wanted more because imho the ending was a little bit poor, so with this ova I was expecting something different, adding brief significant things, but this was very short and irrelevant... It still being good, but I want more :(
In every score, there's a feeling...
