Line 18:
** Nodame herself would probably qualify, if she wouldn't make silly faces while playing.
*** Well, there are many fans who find her silly faces pretty cute in their own way, so...
* Okay, they don't play classical music, but the girls from ''[[K-On!
* Kahoko Hino of ''[[
** And the [[Bishonen]] are music players as well, so they're [[Gender Flip|gender flipped]] examples.
* Male examples (gasp!): Choutarou Ohtori and Yuushi Oshitari from ''[[The Prince of Tennis]]''. Both are handsome, promising violinists as well as excellent tennis players.
Line 31:
*** [[Incredibly Lame Pun|I guess it's not a virginal anymore...]]
** After Eurovision 2009, quite a few fanarts have Norway playing the violin as well.
* In ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'' (both anime and game), [[Moe|Kotomi]] [[Bunny Ears Lawyer|Ichinose]] is a ''really'' cute violin player. [[Dreadful Musician|Even when, well, she SUCKS at playing.]]
* Another "pretty but sucky player" case: [[Quirky Miniboss Squad|Shirabe]] from ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]''. Her music can ''[[Musical Assassin|shatter stone]]''.
* Misaka in episode 19 of ''[[A Certain Scientific Railgun]]'' does a violin solo. Bonus points as it was the [[Theme Tune Cameo|ending tune]] and one of the few time she wears something other than her school uniform; a white flowing dress.
* Quon Kisaragi from ''[[RahXephon]]''. Naturally, since she's the [[Ms. Fanservice]] of the show.
Line 39:
* Henrietta from ''[[Gunslinger Girl]]'' may qualify. She carries her main gun in a violin case ''a'' ''la'' [[the Mafia]], and plays the violin quite well. Then again, she's only about eleven...
** Claes loves to play the piano, but being one of Henrietta's kind she is not much older.
* ''[[Kimagure Orange Road
** It's [[In the Blood]], actually: Madoka's mother (implied to be a [[Hot Mom]], but never clearly seen) is a famous classical violinist and her father is an equally well-known conductor, so she learned from the best.
* ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' has Shinji Ikari playing the cello. Although it doesn't particularly make him more attractive than usual to the viewer, hearing his performance does elicit [[Pet the Dog|some rare genuine niceness]] from Asuka as she notes he's really skilled with it.
** The first part of ''Evangelion: Death and Rebirth'' has several of the Children playing instruments.
* A pre-teen version ([[Huge Schoolgirl|who is still, uhm...]] [[Younger Than They Look]]) is Ai Shinozaki from ''[[Hell Teacher Nube]]''. At the age of 12-13, she's a genius violin player as well as [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]]. {{spoiler|And a [[Lonely Rich Kid]] [[Stepford Smiler]] who's possessed by a demon due to her loneliness and emotional turmoil.}}
* Another male version is Hijiri Minase from [[Yami no Matsuei]], a [[Teen Genius]] violinist who is the [[Dude in Distress]] from the ''Devil's Thrill'' arc.
* One for each gender, in ''[[Marmalade Boy]]'': Kei Tsuchiya is a handsome boy that plays the piano, Anju Kitahara is a [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] who plays violin.
Line 49:
* Seraphim from ''[[Kore wa Zombie Desu ka?]]'' plays the violin and later {{spoiler|leads her fellow vampire ninjas in closing the gates to the underworld; bonus points for them being in [[Meido|Maid costumes]].}}
* Dimitri from ''[[Kurobara Alice]]'' was an opera singer in the past. Alice {{spoiler|(his beloved Agniezska's body, animated by the soul of a young woman named Asuza Kikukawa)}} is a talented pianist.
* Trowa and Quatre gender flip it, playing flute and violin, respectively, at the end of an episode of ''[[Gundam Wing]]''. This is perhaps just more fuel for [[Yaoi Fangirl|fan girls]] of the pairing.
** Quatre is also a skilled piano player, bonding with Noin over a sonata that he plays in {{spoiler|the Sanq Kingdom school.}}
* Ayane and Kou from ''[[Rouge Noir]]''. Ayane doubles as [[Sensei-chan]] since she's a music teacher.
* Seika "Mariana" Akishima from ''[[Amakusa 1637]]'', a prospect opera singer who's pretty famous in her school as such. Her beautiful voice is showcased when she reunites with Natsuki and Eri in the past, via singing to them from the boat she's in so they can recognize her.
