Kanon 11
Monday, December 18th, 2006Well, back to where we started again. Yuuichi hunting his targ– I mean, helping the socially inept.

Am I the only one who sees a problem with this?
A Mai in dress is fine too.

Sorry guys, I’ll have to make this one quick. Episode is great, emotional rollercoaster it is. I suggest you check up with Anime on My Mind for a proper coverage on the episode, as the blog has it down pretty good. Spoiler and non-spoiler versions here. As the blog explains, it’s going to be too hard to make fun of this anime any longer as it is. That’s not to say it’s bad, mind you.
Stand by. The infamous Emotional Roller Coaster is ready to go. You must be this tall in order to ride. You must carry a Spoiler ID with you at all times, and lastly, you need to scream “UGUU~!” while riding. Failure to comply with any of these terms may result in severe mental backlash. We will not be held responsible for any form of damage that may result.

People, please remember the following equations:
Makoto + Scissors = Kyon no Imouto v2
Nayuki + Strawberry Jam = “Ichigo jamu… ichigo jamu… ichigo jamu~”
Makoto + Akiko’s Jam = “Aaauuu…”
Nayuki + wild cat = “Neko… neko… neko…”
Makoto + wild cat = “Give me back my nikuman!”
The serious stuff is finally kicking in for Makoto. I was wondering when we were getting to this stuff. Quite serious, and it looks like it’s not just gonna end there as the episode preview has been hinting at it.

You’re the man now, dog!
Priceless. I also loved the firecrackers scene. It sort of gives you that “oh crap, something’s gonna blow” feeling. I don’t think I’d have the guts to deal with those if someone threw them into the bedroom like that. I’d end up covering myself with the blanket for cover (is that even enough?).
Ayu has different variations of “uguu”, huh? おっと、体が爆発した。
“Waah! I love being moe!” so Shiori says.
Mai: “Be careful, Guze are around here. You are merely a Torch, and I am merely a Flame Haze.”
Thanks to panzerfan for the idea. And thanks for visiting this blog 1000 times. :3
Did I already mention 91 was an asshole?
Not only that, he:
This episode was purely Makoto-oriented. There’s enough for the Mai fans though, especially with 91 trying to make her talk. It’s actually kinda cute watching her eat and stuff. It’s all the more amusing when she uses her sword to swipe away Makoto’s cloak, with the “AUUUU~~~!!!” and everything.
By the way, I might have spoiled myself a little bit here but…
Does this have something to do with that legend that Nayuki talked about in the first episode? :3
91 is…
What’s with Makoto? When she’s around 91, Nayuki, and Akiko, she’s all hyper and likes to pull pranks, but when some stranger (e.g., Ayu) comes round, she’s all shy and hides a lot. Guess we’re starting to see part of her personality.
Kaori coverage! Finally, I was hoping for more of that. Too bad she isn’t one of the main girls, let alone the main heroine. By all rights she should have been one! >:(
Nayuki’s too damn typical for the average harem girl; all “I’m trying to do everything but falling behind” business. Though mind you she doesn’t look too bad.
Kawasumi Mai + sword = win. Though will we be seeing her actually attack demons? Would be nice if a giant blue humanoid thing from Haruhi came about, and she’d have to jump up and do a Jumping Golden Slash. I would kill to see that happen.
In other news, we don’t have any snow yet, so we can’t expect any Sad Girls either here. But it’s Canada, so who knows what’ll happen. Of course, expecting Sad Girls is going to be like expecting to win the lottery.
No screencaps this time, unless someone makes it easy for me and gives me an auto-screencap program! >:)
First things first, Makoto is hilarious. Freeloaders at their best, huh. The sponge rolling down her back was classic. Yuuichi is an asshole, and he’s good at what he does.
Secondly, no Kaori exposure? Come on, Kaori is a cool girl, after all! Out of all the girls in this anime, Kaori looks/acts the best hands down. Screw Nayuki, Ayu, or any of the other girls!
Lastly, does everyone have amnesia? Seems to me maybe they all came together one night seven years ago, ate something that put them all into a coma, and here they come one winter morning present day all having their memories screwed up. That’s gotta be fun.
Read on for spoilers regarding what might happen at end of series…

Things to note:
In conclusion, Kanon ep 2 will hook people a lot more than ep 1 did. Be warned. It’s Haruhi all over again.
P.S. Does anyone know how to take the following screenshots automatically and have them automatically resize and post to WordPress in this manner? Doing this all manually is going to give me carpal tunnel or something… ^^;
