Indeed, Miss Taiyaki-uguu. I haven’t been reading or blogging about Kanon to avoid spoilers thus the total media blackout. Not having seen the Toei version, my knowledge of the game/series was limited to 1) ‘Sad girls in snow’ 2) Mai x SaYuri FTW and 3) the remake is by KyoAni. And I did enjoy it. Kanon did surprise me a few times. In a ‘Wow! I should have seen that coming!’ delighted way rather than a ‘WTF!? SUNRISE KNNBCCB!’ sort of surprise. And the series succeeded in transmorgifying my dislike for most of the Kanon girls, often via a short scene, into sympathy and even adoration.
