| Oh wow, didn't expect Ayu to be alive. Well well, a happy end which is always nice. Caught a glimpse of Makoto in the background in the final scene :P Still, Nayuki for me <3 |
 |
| Me either. I thought that she would of passed away or something. But, it all ends in a happy ending. I don't like these kinds of "yay everyone's happy" kind of endings. They seem too unrealistic. |

| A happy ending is always a good thing to me. A happy ending where the male lead end up with my favourite character is even better. Simply loved Kanon. Beautiful animations, unique characters and a very touching story. |
| What can I say? You just witnessed a legend ^^ This is the best of its genre so far (in my opinion). It's also my most favorite anime overall. |
| Yeah, you even have a Kanon signature. =] (A very pretty one too, I must say.) I have to agree it's really good. I have to think about it for a while to see if it can pass Clannad, though. I marathoned quite a bit so my thoughts might not be very reasonable. |
| Well you can rewatch it as many times as you want ^^ I'll rewatch this this coming summer..for the 3rd time I guess. Majority says that Kanon is greater than Clannad. I may approve of that but my final decision will be after watching Clannad AS. BTW, thanks ^^ |
| aaaaaa...i watched the anime in two days....men i have no more tears.... from the start to the end it was a complete masterpiece even air or clannad just cant compàre themselves to it ......i love clannad like no other but kanon was so great....TT__TT ..so it was a dream but at the same time it didnt...T_T .i hope clannad AS can keep up with these masterpiece series....or to make it even better...^_^ TT__TT |

| One of my favorite animes, glad that there's a happy ending and I was SO happy that Ayu is still alive! And, I have also spotted someone in the ending too... |
| Yuuichi can't be with Ayu. He would be cheating on his fox wife D: |
| I'm sad that there is no more ep. Kanon is awesome, definitely 10/10 for me, even though there are many things left unexplained. |
 |
| It's simple: Ayu wished for a miracle (: Liked the way things turned out. Great series indeed, one of the best of the genre. I really liked it as much as I liked Clannad... but there's an extra here - all the characters are cool, and the main character although is also kinda loli, is so much more cooler then Nagisa >_< And... that's why Kanon 2006 is the winner in my personal comparison "Clannad or Kanon 2006" ^_^ Yuuichi can't be with Ayu. He would be cheating on his fox wife D: You made my day with those two sentences. LMAO |
 |
| Finally, i cried a lot!!! Since i've seen Toei's version first, i was expecting a similar end. I'm happy that KyoAni made this new version and put my feelings to tremble a lot like this. I can admit it with no regrets!!! KyoAni really makes the best animes! I liked Toei's version a lot, although i've complained about a few things. Now i love Kanon even more for KyoAni's version. |
Anime ga daaaai suki!!! Computer Engineering. Japan is awesome!!! |
| More Shiori = excellent ending to an excellent series. |
| i loved this T_T !~ <3 |
| I love this anime~ ^^ |
Tosi ystävyys ei jäädy pakkasella! Thank you for your visit. Welcome again! |
| What an incredibly beautiful ending, love how they tied everything up so well with that glad Ayu came back and is on the road to recovery got to see a glimpse of Mai felt their overall wasn't enough Nayuki but maybe that's just me but still great ending. |
| I liked Kanon a lot, and I still hold my 10/10 score but the ending was a bit... odd? Miracles were just flying off the wall!!!!!! Hey, you get a miracle! You're a pedophile, so I'll grant you a miracle. Even though you have hair that isn't humanly possible to sustain you get a miracle too!!!!!!!!! Oh, you donated to charity!?! Well you get a whole entire bag of miracles :D Really? Lol, the ending seemed too fan serviced. Even then, I still loved the series. |

| I was truly fearing a bittersweet end. My suspicions couldn't have been more wrong. HAPPY END. |
 |
| A good episode to make agood ending for a GREAT series! I likedd this much more than the original. |
| Revisiting this after a long time... Am I alone in the feeling that the ending wasn't very coherent and ruined all the drama of Ayu's arc? |

| What a great series. I'm sad it's over now. I didn't cry like I thought I would. Maybe I'll have to watch it a gain XD. |

| Oooh Miss Alicia It's our own secret garden Lesbians at war |
| Great show, however, the show is not as appealing for me after the end of Shiori Arc... for me, Shiori, Mai and Makoto arc have completely overshadowed this ending. Nevertheless, this series have been great ^_^ 9/10. in other word, Clannad ~AS~ remain as my favorite of all time. |

| It was good, no doubt.. but i'm left feeling confused and mildly irritated at the ending everyone claims to be the best evar. I understood all that happened, but i can't seem to grasp the 'entire' story, do i just have to *insert miracle* to everything i'm confused about to "accept" kanon 2006? =P Oh well, still gets a 8/10 from me. |
 |
| Great series overall. I personally cant decide if kanon 2k6 or clannad is better. though i felt the ending is a bit rushed |
| If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card). |
| Given all the hype around it, and the huge amount of people that recommended it to me, this series didn't live to my expectations. Actually, it failed (miserably) to pull my interest. The characters all (except, perhaps the male lead) feel very fake and flawless and that takes away whatever pleasure one could have from watching this kind of show, heavily based on character development... or so it seems. Anyway, most of the time I was bored while watching this but I kept watching, due to the "it gets better" that I was told several times. Indeed, it got slightly better for a few episodes (Mai's arc) and I also liked Shiori's short arc. However, I found myself yawning throughout most of the remaining episodes. I can't say the same about this last episode though. I did like the ending. It was beautifully done and was a nice conclusion to the story. A nice ending for a mediocre series. This series gets the 'average' mark from me (5/10), mostly because I liked Mai's and Shiori's arc, which are about 1/3 of the series, so it would be unfair to give it a rating lower than this. |
| Good series, I guess. The first few arcs were almost unbearable. The last couple were great. The series falls somewhere in between I guess. 7.5/10. |
| Finished today,it gets a 10 from me ^^' I would give it a 9,but I can't just give that,it has something many shows don't have,A GOOD FINAL @___________@ |
| i loved the end. the happy end ^^ but i've got a question, does someone know what the soundtrack (or whatever you call it) is... uhh... when Akiko and Yuuichi were in the cafe... and there was music... on the violin...? |
| Key ftw! Kanon was beautiful..just beautiful.. Definitely a memorable series! ^^ |
 |
| I liked it, but it seems kinda strange, with him dating Ayu ( who seems a better "littel sister" character). Also, I never got what happened to Makoto. |
| I love this! |
| This is a great series! Almost as good as Clannad As. Fortunately I wasnt as emotional watching this as I was watching CLANNAD AS but this was a great anime. now i wonder.. now what? Shiori LIVES ! MY FAVORITE CHARACTER! :D |
| I really love this episode. Its a really great episode ^^ |
| Good, but lacked the depth of character development from Clannad (although there was two series of that). Makoto and Ayu, in my eyes, were quite annoying, and the climax left me in limbo. It happens, where you try to create your own reality because your scared of the real world, but Makoto being a fox, Mai fighting illusionary demons, and Shiori surviving a terminal disease, not to mention Ayu being in a coma for over 7 years? And even hints of insest (if you count counsins relationships as that)? It seems far too farfetched and unexplained, even if the supernatural elements were deliberate. Clannad explained its arcs far better, even if it was a bit cliche, and the comedy was better than just 'Insult -> "Auuuu"/"Uguuuu!"'. It was not bad, but not great either. |
 |
| Great anime, just... awesome. But the corny happy ending was just... bleh. 8.5/10 |
 |
| Well, I think I followed the ending a lot better my second time through the series, but it's still a bit confusing. I'm still not sure if the entire series was part of Ayu's dream or just the last episode. Obviously Shiori's recovery and Nayuki's mom getting better didn't really happen since that doesn't fit with what we know of reality at all, but I'm not sure if the last scene showing Ayu's recovery was real or not. It is implied that Ayu is dreaming all this as Yuuichi is by her bedside telling her about everything, so perhaps all the events are slightly based in reality but with the supernatural parts added in by Ayu's subconscious. This is all just speculation on my part though. |
| HAHA LOVED THIS! Though i still loved clannad more. haha any hope for Kanon After Story? |
 Do you like or wish for the Otonashi X Tachibana Kanade pairing from Angel Beats? Or just love both characters? Then Join the club ^^:The Otonashi X Tachibana Kanade Club     |
| so Ayu woke up eh? Is ayu's last wish is to forget her? |

| wow what a great ending!!:D and it's not that surrealistic either(in some parts) Akiko go out of the hospital...possible Mai and Sayuri also got well...posible Shiori was cured...that's pretty hard to belive because her ilness really sounded bad but hey,so did for Stephen Hawking :) and last but not least(actually the most important)...Yuiichi MISUNDERSTOOD,so Ayu wasn;t dead but in a coma...you can't imagine how happy i felt when i did found out this :D... that's it,kanon goes up to #2 on my favorites list,after clannad :) great show,i will happily rewatch it sometime this year 10/10 PS:Nayuki,Ayu,Yuiichi,Shiori and Makoto all have their chance to get on my top 10 characters xD |

Interesting. That's the same reaction I had when I first watched the series, but (as I stated above) I'm not so sure anymore after re-watching it. I have 2 reasons for this: 1) Shiori pretty much states in the last episode that all the miracles are the results of a dream. Well, okay she is speculating but I think this is the writer's way of telegraphing their intentions to the audience without stating them outright. 2) Up to this point, the whole story has been building up to a wonderful, awful tragic ending. Giving it a happy ending at this point through a series of Deus Ex Machina ruins it (for me at least.) So it is possible I'm simply projecting my own opinions into the story, but the way I see it viewing the ending as realistic would be like having the title characters survive at the end of Romeo and Juliet. |
| the story of this is like in clannad.. but i like it |
