>>Only in Kanon you get to screw a girl on her Linus blanket :V

Do the Nayuki h-scenes involve strawberry jam?

@Avisch and everyone else:

I’d like to put this on record once and for all: It’s K-I-N-N-Y with a bloody letter “I”, NOT the friggin’ generic KENNY. :p

@ deltazechs

Thank you. The translator, William Hawley, also composed a very fine choral work with original Italian text of the poem which we are going to sing in the upcoming May concert. It is interesting how many part of the poem can be connected with various Shiori scenes.

Heh I’m watching it again too. Kanon is just too good and it’s the first show I’ve rewatched before the seires ended x.x I mean it’s being subbed by 4 groups and I’m going to see them all. Working on Aquastars now

Shiori reminds me of this poem.

By: Torquato Tasso ( 1544 - 1595 )
translated by: William Hawley

Title: Vita de la Mia Vita

Life of my life,
you are to me like a pallid olive
or a fading rose;
nor are you deprived of beauty,
but in every way you please me,
whether you flatter or shun;
and whether you follow me or flee
softly you consume and melt me.

KyoAni gave all those hints for the Kanon veterans, and for those with sharp minds… really good ones. they stop it when Makoto’s Arc enter it’s crutial stage, a good move.

You have to love KyoAni for its references, to the old series, to other Key works, and of course, it’s own projects (like the Lamba Driver effects for Mai’s battles).

Next Saturday I’ll see it again as a prelude for this Spring….
Lucky Star… here we come.

I had sort of expected that the comments Yuuichi made would be hints toward the future developments…but I forgot about them so It didn’t matter in the end.

Kenny Riddle: I also noticed that Kyoani had alot of detail to copy the CG’s. I wonder if their director was like “Ok see this? Just copy that”
