Really? It was my favorite. XD

Makoto is really growing on me. She's so cute! A little selfish, yeah, but... I 'unno, I like her anyway. Mai was pretty cool; I loved the lunch scene!

Best part, though?

The bath scene. Yuuichi seemed so confident of himself. Hahah~

The porno mag part was pretty funny I must say. I also really enjoy the way that the perspective goes to first person from time to time, it's really nice "camera" work.

Ditto. Makoto-the-ghost at the end was great. The terrified expression she had after Mai nearly sliced her in half... ^^

Wow, that was the better from the first 5 episodes.
Bath, ero hon, lunch and ghost parts were cool!!
Until this episode, i was thinking Kanon (2006) wasn't so good as original Kanon.
But all the comedy of this episode made it worth til now.
I expect the next ones have at least one fourth of this episode coolness.

Now, i'm really liking Makoto's actions. In original Kanon, she was just an annoying girl, but in Kanon (2006) she has an excelent role.

And, from what i saw, the problems of Mai Kawasumi from Kanon (2006) should be more realistic then in original Kanon...
That's either a relief (talking realistic) and awful (talking about action scenes).
Mai will look really crazy...

Yes, something decent for a change... although nothing special, as usual.

Mai is definitely interesting, although the "demon hunter" thing seems... lame.

Makoto is as annoying as ever, but at least there was close to no "uguu" this time, so I guess it's an improvement.

The porn magazine part was amusing though..

Interesting approach on the meeting with Mai as they already met and introduced to each other it did as I though give another feeling like it did with the 2002 version when they've only met for the first time!

The Porn Magazine scene from the 2002 version was allot funnier though, where they where actually in the book store and required to run away, sad they didn't do it also this time it was really an amazing moment!

The rest of the episode was mostly the same and was quite funny! Up to the next one :D

Mai is weird. She seem to know Makoto somehow or she's able to see thru people.

Makoto still trying to trap Yuuichi. Next episode seem to center on Makoto story.

Shiori look like she's a ghost or something, she seem to be there and not there at the same time.

Sorry I would have to disagree - THAT WAS DISAPPOINTING. No offense to people who have just watched this, but the ero-hon part in the 2002 version was WAY BETTER. I will never forget that reaction in the original Toei version, with Nayuki and Yuuichi hiding in secret. This version just brushed it off like it was nothing!

Otherwise, this episode is 5/5 worthy. The addition of the bathing scene, the onii-chan moment (Shiori FTW!), and obviously the foreshadowing at the end were new to the KyoAni remake. Especially the last scene, in which Makoto stalked Yuuichi to the school - it wasn't in the remake, or at least that is what I remember. From what Mai said really worries me. Or is it just a foreshadow of (SERIOUS SPOILERS AHEAD, CLICK ONLY IF YOU HAVE WATCHED EITHER 2002 or 2006 VERSIONS)


Unlike the 2002 version, which presented itself in a more or less omnibus format, this somehow links everything together, as if orchestrating a big picture behind, at the very end. This has deemed potential, unlike the 2002 version which had its fate sealed after Mai's intro. Although, that does not mean the Toei had it bad - as far as I see things, the first five episodes of the 2002 version knocked this version flat in terms of plot and development.

Agreed with you yet again. Although I'd prefer the 2002 Mai debut appearance over KyoAni's remake.
