THAT Animeblog

Most people know I hardly dislike anything and I do not voice it out most of the time. However, this really turned me off big time that I need to let it out.

What the hell is with that kiss?

Someone please explain to me about the sudden kiss between the two of them. This is a situation where Yuuichi is mostly just teasing Ayu as a little girl, with no hint whatsoever for any romantic relationships in the previous 18 episodes. You can argue that they are in love 7 years ago, but that’s 7 years ago. Not now. I personally think that it’s a really bad execution, with that sudden kiss out of the blue. First, Yuuichi suddenly blushed looking at Ayu out of nowhere in this episode. Then, the kiss came. I am not denying that the relationship is progressing slowly due to Ayu’s comfort but that feels more like a friend’s comfort than a blossoming love relationship.

Even emotional turmoil by the two makes the “rebound relationship” argument weak since this is simply out of way completely. I need people to convince me that the kiss is not sudden because it is greatly to me. I expected a steady execution or at least some hints dropped along the previous 18 episodes about a liking. I don’t even demand a blush from Yuuichi, but perhaps some thoughts and hints to the relationship. If you are wondering, I am perfectly fine with Ayu’s ending because they are destined to be together, compared to Nayuki even though she is my favorite among the two. However, it is the sudden 0 to 100 LOVE meter gradation that really pisses me off.

Well, I just had to let this rant out. Do try to convince me that this is in fact logical because even a subtle form of realism in this relationship is thrown out of the window completely.

p/s: I still love Kanon a lot.

Yes, I simply wanted to post something random, considering that I have suddenly thought of the Power Rangers when I saw the above screenshot. What will really happen if Kanon turns into a Power Ranger spoof? Actually, it is not “if it really happens”. It is in fact the story of a harem ranger, learning how to improve his power through the various senseis in this series. He is in fact the sheer combination of Naruto + Sasuke + Ichigo + Ana Coppola!

Don’t ask why for the last one. It’s stated in the shounen chronicles that a moe~ character must always be added into any shounen post in the Warped Shounen Guidebook1.01v. The guidebook sells for a cheap price of a taiyuki that must be grabbed by stealing it from the evil Master Vile-who-sells-taiyuki-at-the-roadside. Yes, I never watch a single episode of Power Rangers before.

Yuuichi, our great shounen character in Kanon shows you the steps of being the GREATEST HAREM RANGER and of course, he’s over 9000 thousand. Yes, all of you readers have been tricked. Kanon is smartly disguised as a harem series when its essence is truly a shounen series.

Kanon episode 5 clearly displays an unique side to the harem gathering genre.

Here is Yuuichi’s famous steps of discovery when an anime male lead actively searches to gather as big a harem as possible.

—————————————-

Attack 1: Nayuki

This is the episode where we saw Yuuichi being out of the stereotype. As we all know, most harem male leads do have a female character that is always on home waiting for him. This is well known as the “childhood friend” syndrome in shows where there is always a hot and cuddly cute childhood friend. Look, his first step of discovery is achieved as Nayuki faithfully welcomes him home after he went to school to have a date with the hot silent chick, Yuki Nagato with long hair and a sword Mai.

*The actual truth is that he went to pick up books for Nayuki, which is another sweet thing to charm her heart*

Under the guise of a show called Kanon.

Irrefutable proof no.1:

Ayu is actually Haruhi.

Irrefutable proof no.2:
Yuuichi is Kyon.

Irrefutable proof no.3:
I made you look, didn’t I?

Fang-chan BANSAI! The best girl with the best name, Makoto.

Cuteness personified @_@;;;

Welcome to the anime that is so overly blogged that I heard of some people dropping this already. Since I believe there are a million other bloggers blogging on Kanon (actual result is perhaps around 52), I will not go into the plot since you probably will read it somewhere already.

Or somehow.

I think Kurogane have the same problem as me. I really find Makoto’s “yatta yatta yatta yatta yatta” so fricking addictive that I found myself listening to it quite a few times already.

YAY!

She’s cute, I tell you, the great fang-chan. She completely rocks and it seems that she is fitting to my guess that she’s a fox. Anyway, more action after more…

The grand entrance of Impzie’s newest swoonage character (other than Sunako, Mariya, Kana, Feena, Jun, Ayako, Shoukou among many). Ok, I am seriously suffering from Compulsive Cuteness Syndrome…

This is the new cute face of Kanon. This is her glamorous entrance with “YES, I AM GONNA PWN YOU, YOU STUPID YUUICHI” music playing in the ground. That is just about the biggest entrance ever for a character in Kanon to wow me over. Her having a grundge probably has something to do with the fact that Yuuichi is way too thick in his head, thinking about espers, time travellers and aliens to notice such a cute gal in his memories. I am sure of it. Either that, or he is trying to find someone with wings that practically has an IQ of 50. Sorry, Ayu fans, I don’t hate her, but I do hate her stupidity.

That is why he said “Who the hell are you?”. Oh god, talk about thickness.

That is like so fricking sad because Fang-chan seems to be a big winner in Kanon. I am already thinking that she is way cuter than Ayu, or even Nayuki or whichever character is going to appear in this show.

Hereby, I will want to somehow twist the FFF (Fap fap feena) to the FFF (Fap fap Fang-chan) club. Oh god, I will be killed by that fanclub soon enough but Feena is still hot. However, it is just that Fang-chan just bowled me over immediately.

There are more reasons why she is so cool for me.

Auuuuuuuu~

Oh god, this sound is much cuter than uguu~. I fully, absolutely, greatly, firmly and (*add more great words here*) vote Auuu~ to be the cuter sound compared to the uguu~ by Ayu. Well, also because I am biased because I really hate dumb girls. Dumb girls turn me off, big time.

Anyway, we see the introduction of two new characters that are possibly having some strong leads to Yuiichi eventually. Both of them are nameless for now so I will give them nicknames for now. Considering that I am not one who has watched the previous Kanon or have bothered spoiling myself on the endings of the gals, I have absolutely no idea what their names are.

One is a shy and sickly girl (my guess) who seldom travels out of her house and hence bought her groceries in bulk. I presume she is sick because she is wearing too much clothing even for a winter. I will call her shy-chan. After being informed that her name is Shiori and she is mentioned in episode 1, she will be named Shiori.

Another is a girl who charges out at the end of the episode, trying to kick Yuuichi as she has a grudge against him. Making Auuu~ sounds and all that, with some fangs, i will call her Fang-chan (not to confuse with LOL OR FANG-TAN, who is tsuruya, one of the cutest green-haired anime gals ever in history).

That said, time for a short episode summary and my conspiracy theories that will make you laugh because I am such a bad guesser.
