All Chiaki ever wanted was to become a great conductor, and now it’s finally happening: He’s leading his own orchestra. He’s worked hard to get this far, but he still has so much to do. His musicians are sloppy, unmotivated, and out of practice. Chiaki’s ready to devote his life to making his dreams come truebut will they include Nodame, the girl who loves him?
...but, I'm thinking the writer is running out of steam. There's no real thrust anymore. I still enjoy the humor, but the overall plot is somewhat lacking.
