Actress Aoi Yu will lend her voice for a new character in the movie Nodame Cantabile Saishu Gakusho ~ Kouhen. The movie will be release in Japan on the 17th next month. Her character is named Jadwi and is Hungarian. As the movie progresses, Nodame will quit playing the piano. Jadwi’s character becomes crucial to the storyline as she is the one who makes Nodame realize the importance of music. Actress Ueno Juri said: “Jadwi’s character is really bright and is very similar to Aoi.” When the production team was looking for a candidate to take on the voice role, they didn’t have to think twice about approaching Aoi. This will be the third time the two actresses have worked together.

As well, new photos from the movie were released earlier. Aside from ones showing Nodame with Franz Stresemann (played by Takenaka Naoto) performing in London, there are ones of Nodame with Chiaki sitting together cozily in a kotatsu.
