Kanon is one of my favourite anime series and the only thing that i can say is better than Air at, is that it has more time for the developments of each character and for the audience to know them intimately rather than the fast-paced drama in every episode of Air though the episodes in Kanon never got boring.

The story and presentation was also straightforward and easily understood by watchers. I gotta say the funny bits were very well placed indeed. I enjoyed this anime immensely and loved the happy but gentle ending which was very appropriate and unexpected after watching Air (i thought sad endings were the producer's style, guess i was wrong).

Overall i think the anime is just fantastic and recommend anyone to watch it. The story is very original and very traditional in its own way (i mean, even the legend is original!). I really enjoyed the relationship between the characters especially between Misuzu and Haruko in the end even though it was short but it was still happy.

In this anime, you really get attached to the characters and actually feel for them when they are going through hard times. It is in the Summer Arc where we get to meet Kana and the others that we begin to understand what pain the winged girl in the sky had gone through. But it is also in this arc that there are the most humorous parts. It still makes me laugh even when i think about it.

I think that this anime I quite good but maybe not worth buying but downloading, definitely! I think that this anime kind of dragged a bit too long so if you don’t like long animes that drag for ages (I think it’s 52 episodes) don’t watch it. I gotta say, though, the anime producers really know how to keep you occupied and entertained throughout the series and I never once thought it was boring.

One thing I definitely didn’t like was Ichigo’s pose. Of all the Mew Mews, why chose the main leader and design such a crap (sorry but that’s the only way I can describe it) pose? And there were also unnecessary moves during the transformation which really kind of put me off (because it’s really lame) so that whenever she transforms, I skip it.
