Well, raw quality is really bad so I guess we can't expect subs anytime soon. Anyway, it's good to see this anime again. Second. Season. Do. Want! ;]

Somebody up loaded a trolldub of this and I wanted to see what it would like. they actually had like 6 min. of the original animation, followed by the 'Girugamesh' guy from the Sakura-con' commercial repeating Girugamesh for the next 17 min. WTF! Hopefully someone else will do a slightly more faithful sub of this. Please don't feed the trolls, people!

Wow, I haven't seen Kannagi in like ages.. even though it's only been just a few months since the animated series ended, it's feels like it's been a long time. I also just saw the raws recently and I don't know if it was just a bad upload or the animation/production on it wasn't as thorough as the series beforehand was. It was a good episode but still seems like there's still room for more coz the ending didn't seem "finished" to me at all. With that being said, I was curious if this special episode was entirely independent from the manga? I have only read as far as chapter 3, as I wanted to wait for more chapters to come out back then before going all out on it.

I loved the opening when Nagi was trying to dance; it's been so long since I watched it.
Mmmmm the beginning reminded me of Haruhi.

However, it reminds me even more about how I miss It's a SONY
I found it funny when the guys were so overly-excited over the Famicom game.
I wonder who's plating such neatly placed money. :P

It was what I expected. Not as good as the series, but with the same feel... Though it makes me think twice about watching a second season if they are of the same nature.

Yeh, it's got the Karaoke and stuff. The video quality is nice too.

The show itself was halarious. I hope the "Part 2. Decided." at the end was a foreshadowing of a second season of Kannagi.

The troll version killed my YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY attitude, but saw it coming.

Anyway. The episode started a bit slow, the filming wasn't bad but could have used some extra ridiculousness. However things got a lot better with the "subtle" fanservice and the gay joke with the guys playing games.
By the time of the overdramatized return of the DVD I was rofling all over!

Nice episode overall, but the animation quality seemed pretty low compared to how I remember the show.

It was alright, expected better though. It had some bad moments aswell as some good moments. Had to laugh quite a bit at the rental store since that's like a real rental branch in japan. or at least it has that logo and that name/name like it. Can't exactly remember, just went to one when i was in Japan and i didn't realize it was a rental store until i went inside....

back to this episode. I'm curious if it was just me, or if commie subs used a bad raw because i remember the animation quality of the series being much much better. As well as the art. Just looked kind of crap to me :/.

And unlike most i don't want another season. the first was pretty good but got sorta bad towards the end, kannagi really does not need another season though. It would probably end up being all pointless bad comedy crap.

Fixed.

Although I wonder how they're going to deal with the source material since the manga has been on hiatus for ages.

As for the episode it was hilarious, it just got funnier as it progressed. As others have said, the filming reminded me of Haruhi, and also the part of being stuck somewhere while there's a storm outside. You know, the whole closed circle thingy. :P

And Takako made my day by convincing everyone to wear the swimsuits. Also, was I the only one who was expecting Tsugumi to go all Yandere during her scene in the movie? XD

It was great to see this again, I agree with what has been said about the ending. It does kind of seem like they are hinting at a continuation of the series with it. Either way, it was a fun special, felt a little like a series episode in its own way.

I found this dvd special quite boring. Only the last part was a bit funny. I definitely expected better. They didn't even exploit the girls in school swimsuits to give us good fanservice :(

Quite boring, definetly, wasn't that good as the series, and what the hell is with all that randomness and fanservice, though i laughed hard at the raining scene in the end.

I dunno. It kind of felt like instead of the movie in this episode, the episode itself had a budget of 100,000 Yen ($1000).

I guess the humor is off base too because this episode was not based on a chapter in the manga. Though it's not like an anime only episode hasn't been done well before in Kannagi...

But boy was the animation off in this 'special'.

trying to make a movie with only a thousand dollars(roughly), thats not gonna get much if you want a real movie; what was really funny was all the girls trying to get his attention while he was playing that video game, lol, and so anitclimatic after losing half the party they forgot they're wallets, rofl!

What, no one else thinks that the whole visual quality of the episode is linked to the 100K Yen they had in the episode itself. PS. I know its not an episode, just couldn't come up w/ a better word

I used the best possible raw (DVD .vob).
It's probably the outcome of the lack of budget they had for this episode.

I've seen this listed also as episode 14.

it was okay for a filler episode. I hope there will be a season 2. I've been keeping up with the manga. Lot of good stuff, including the origin of Zang.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

The first half wasn't that funny, but the second one had more than enough to fill the void. Gawd, I missed Kannagi.

Also, Takako with her hair down made me drool.

If it follow the manga than no it won't end up being all pointless bad comedy crap. Far from it. Pretty much every plot point left answered in season 1 is either answered or touched upon from Vol 4-7 of the manga.

Something about Kannagi just cracks me up. Other "comedies" just makes me think, "that was amusing" whereas Kannagi actually makes me chuckle and even laugh out loud. This episode was nice, I loved the fanservice :p, also the last part where Takako finds what, a billion yen, was hilarious.

Waiting for the weather lololololololol rain and lolol poor Nagi. And of course they find a video game and end up ignoring all the girls in bathing suits around them.

All in all a very silly episode that was fun to watch but not really necessary. 7/10
