lol~ Keima's so cool with that line when at that point when kakedama's about to be out.

Kanon's ballad is nice.

This episode is my second favorite episode for the anime so far... :)
They done well on this one, though, at first, I thought, this will becoming worse...
Kanon's 4th song is nice and suitable for the situation, though I like the three of the former songs better...

Too bad we don't need any sunglasses for the anime... ;)

Kanon arc was a huge letdown.. they wasted so much time on unnecessary songs, instead of bringing crucial details over the time =_=

As for me this episode was good. I liked Kanon's arc a lot and for me (a big fan of the manga series) it wasn't a "huge letdown". I suppose it will differ from person to person... Btw. if u wanna have all the details from the manga just go and read it :P This is an anime adaptation, not a 23 minutes sliding show of the manga.

I liked this episode, skipped the songs tho.
That scene where Keima convinced her to perform was very romantic.
Elcea was very cute this episode even tho she got called brain death demon, then again Elcea is always cute.

One thing i am wondering about is.
How can Kanon walk outside in the snow with that outfit and not get cold?

I think the reason why they included so many songs is because Manglobe wants to sell CDs and singles/albums outside of the actual show, kind of like how k-on has been doing. Not a bad ep, but I think this episode would have been fine without most of those songs.

Kanon's arc is officially over, with a new arc starting next week.

That was fine for the last episode of the first season... oh wait..

Seriously though, that looked liked a season ender episode.

Oh well, not bad. Too dragged out but I enjoyed Kanon's arc. I liked some songs too so yes, very decent adaptation to say the least but could still have been better (well, of course, it can always be better).

Well yeah I also think the manga is different from the anime but I still enjoy the anime version.

It's haven't let me down yet, go Keima!

Bye bye Kanon. Keima calling Erusi brain-dead was amusing. I wonder how Kanon can still remember Keima after the kiss.

That was a nice ending, but the songs in this episode kinda struck me as time-killers. Not necessarily a bad thing (they were decent, at least), but time-killers nonetheless.

Really looking forward to Shiori's arc. I know it's going to be like the umpteenth time Kana Hanazawa plays the meek quiet girl, but it still gets to me every freakin' time.

Doesn't anyone else feel bad for Keima? All these girls end up loving him, and I'm sure he ends up with feelings for them, and then they just forget. That's got to be crushing for Keima. Especially with Kanon who it seems he had the most feelings for.

gaaah

and yes, I guess we don't need sunglasses for this xDD
They really put this one chapter in the manga into a 23 minute length anime adaptation... They put a lot of crucial details for it to fit.. and the songs too xDD
It seems she didn't forget Keima when she sang the first song but when she's in idol mode, i think she already forgot Keima xDD (I still can't figure out how they wipe memories in the process so I just think they just suddenly go poof)

HOLY CRAP! When I saw the reflection start talking, I immediately thought "Wow! It's still too early for
Then I realized it was just her self-doubt talking to her. Bleh.

I wish we could have seen why Citron broke up, I've always wanted to find that out because it looks like there are no hard feelings between the three of them.

Wasn't Keima the one that came up with the idea to use the sensor in the manga? Seems like they're dumbing him down in the anime. I was surprised he was actually in the concert.

Read that chapter again. It was Elsie who came up with that idea and not Keima.

I read the manga and am contemplating spoiling ti for you, but its like season 3 stuff, you''ll find out later.

but if your tempted to read the manga... I was very shocked that the mirror started talking, Only to put her down, because I was Giddy after having have read the later chapters of the Manga

Very good end of arc annd the concert was kinda good too. Kanon was probably the most interesting out of the first three heroines.

Kanon's songs was nearly a waste in the end. Oh well. I was hoping it would do some momentary flashbacks as to what happened to Lime and the other girl (I had an overlay on the right side, so I don't know her name), but meh, Happy Happy Crescent was fine...

Wait, THIS SONG IS NEARLY STUCK ON MY HEAD!!! (Score for Arc: 8/10)

It makes plenty of sense to me that they spent so long on the songs. Musical numbers are a big place an anime can shine over the manga, simply due to the medium, giving those who already know the story inside and out something new to watch for. It's an area that can readily be done better than the original. Additionally, songs are a significant expense, so you want to get the most out of them. Enough exposure for the CDs to sell is even better.

Do I think it was good for the episode, though? No. Oh, the songs are decent enough, but even in a shallow, just for fun series like this, I need more content than that to be entertained. Showing the character dancing around a bit to pop lyrics just gets boring relatively fast, except in exceptional cases like Macross Frontier where they bust out all the shiny effects.

To tell the truth i hated Kanon at the start of this arc. Her personality was annoying, her problem seemed meh and i couldn't stand her appearance. Must of been something about the hair and glasses with the facial expressions and demeanor.

However, i was converted like Keima this episode. I felt sad when she sang her first song, and i was bobbing in my chair during her concert, chanting with the fans.... Okay slight exaggeration but you get the idea.

I must say that I was very pleased with this episode.
It is kind of rare that an anime actually do something better than it's manga counterpart but this time this is definitively it.
The first song on the stage was win, I don't like much happy cresent but the first one was definitively good.
For those that wonder if Kanon really forgot or not then the answer is in the spoiler below, I don't recommend seeing it but some people love to get spoiled, for more spoiler you can come ask on my profile, I love talking about this show/manga.

It feels so awkward to watch an idol-pop concert, even fictional, especially if you know that the songstress is the object of lust of thousands of sweating otakus packed together like tunas in the same hall.

I absolutely loved this episode. Definitely the best of the series so far - in terms of direction for sure. I also feel the songs took up quite a bit of time, but I did really like the first ballad. I'm not much of a fan of her other songs though.

I'm also enjoying the evolution of Keima's character as he gets touched by the girls each time. I'm definitely going to pick up this manga.

u kno the next flag? (coupling with with with with....)

The next (or maybe last) arc will begin at episode 9.

However, I dunno whether they will use 4 episodes for Shiori or not...

Oh well... A filler ep will cheer me up :D

(especially that next ep)

There's actually a very good reason for the memory thing that is explained really, really late into the manga. Unless you want a HUGE spoiler about a major arc later in the series, you're better off not asking :D
