First I was like: oh no not another K-On story (this was after reading the synopsis) but now that I read the novel I must say I was surprised. I'm reading the manga now atm and I'm considering to buy the manga. Can someone tell me is the manga is already published in english? Because on baka-updates there is no english translation mentioned and mostly I believe baka-updates...

The author is actually the author of Kamisama no Memochou. I don't think it's licensed in English or it will ever be anytime soon. |

Like I've said, how many works does this author have...
Personally, I prefer KamiMemo. But this isn't bad at all. And way better than K-ON!, which I don't particularly like. It has good musical refs, BTW.

I've only read the first volume of each series so far, and with fan-translations it's always hard to compare, but I give the edge to Piano Sonata based upon the strength of the characters. Quote:

I like manga art more than LN art. There's more of an edge to it and Mafuyu looks appropriately, well, bratty. Edgy and tsun-tsun, you could say. The main character also looks a lot less like a generic VN harem lead guy there, thank the gods.
That's mostly on character design though. No comment on material matters. |

Anyway, regarding the most recent chapter 11, it looks like they skipped the actual showdown. The novel actually detailed their dueling performance until Mafuyu collapsed, but the manga skipped over it entirely. Last edited by Shadow5YA; 2012-02-22 at 21:07. |

@Shadow5YA Hime is a trilogy. Never touched the rest I should pick up Sayonara Piano Sonata too especially since the actual topic of music is central in it....unlike K-ON! which was more like lazing around...

Does anyone know how copyright laws work? I was wondering if it's possible for this to get an anime.
In KamiMemo, Colorado Bulldog was supposed to be Narumi's ringtone, but they took that out in the anime. I was wondering if all these song references in Sayonara Piano Sonata would face copyright issues as well. |

And i highly doubt this series will get a green light for anime. It lacks the Ecchi / Action which series like this require for it to be green lite for anime. |
