READ BEFORE POSTING:

This is a thread to discuss the Kanon remake, there will be absolutely no discussion regarding the original series. Violations will be considered spoiling, and will be dealt with a severe warning and possibly a ban from the forums. Beware of browsing wikipedia and other sites about the series, you'll probably find yourself reading alot of spoilers.


"Announced by TBS and Pony Canyon at the Tokyo International Animation Fair 2006.

A remake of the Kanon series which was shown 2002. This time production and animation is done by Kyoto Animation, the same team which was already behind the AIR TV conversion, as opposed to Toei which was responsible for the 2002 series.

Broadcast scheduled to fall 2006. The series will have the same seiyuu cast which already was in the original.

*based on Key Visual Art`s visual-novel by the same name*

One snowy winter`s day...

I sit on a bench near the station, waiting to meet my cousin Nayuki Minase; it`s been seven years since I last saw her.

This place is far from the town where I was born and lived until yesterday.
This is where Nayuki lives with her mother, who has offered to take me in, now that I am forced to move so suddenly.

And this is the town in which my faintest, cloudiest childhood memories are set...

A young man, Yuuichi Aizawa, gets off a train and leaves the station as he enters a town that is blanketed by snow. He left the area seven years ago and has now returned to his memories that he left behind. Although his past is blurry in his mind, the girls that still remember him and that he had relationships begin to help him remember. While this happens, the bad memories of his past also begin to come back, and will eventually haunt him."

Animation looks quite good.

I never played the game (never found a translated version, or a translation patch), but I did saw the "original" series. And just a few minutes of the prelude already hooked me.

Im expecting a lot from this series, I just hope Im not dissapointed as I was with Air.

I think it's pretty obvious that this series will be overly oversubbed.

I think it's pretty obvious that this series will be overly oversubbed.

Yeah, that's indeed something that can hardly be called surprising. I watched the old Kanon in the first place because Fred Gallagher mentioned it in his rant or blog, and I'm pretty sure 10000 other people did the same thing... >_> And that's of course only a fraction of the whole scheme. Talk about a hot show.

I'll check this EnA prelude version - simply because that abbreviation sounds more convincing than the names of those other groups...

[Munsu]

Sprocket I've never heard of. Melody is some new group, I think they are subbing Bimbou Shimai Monogatari, and I think they are bad from what I've read around. EnA, I haven't seen anything. And The Waffle House is a manga group, don't know about their subbing skills.

[RyougaZell]

I'll have to go with the most "known" group when the series comes out.

Or maybe I'll recheck my old version of Kanon and see who subbed it, to see if they will repeat the honors.

Who is Fred Gallagher?

...and I'm pretty sure 10000 other people did the same thing... [

Yeah, I'm one of the 10,000 other people.
So this is 24 episodes... much longer than the original.

[Munsu]

Hah, I have better opinions than that so called Fred Gallagher. Just follow my lead.

[animus]

Man I just finished I guess the Makoto arc at episode 10, and it had me bawling. You know it's gonna happen and I just couldn't hold it back.

[Archangel]

Unlike others i only got around to watch this after i had already finished Clannad so i was able to find a whole lot of fun backward parallels

Loved it as i suspected i would, definitely a Key series
