Lol, is it just me or does everyone in this anime want to sprout wings and take of *laughs a bit*

Ok that was probably immature since this is meant to be an emotional and deep anime but yea, couldn't help it. Really want to know about this mystery thing with Kano and why she is strangling Yukito and I really get the feeling the plots really going to start moving the next few episodes.

Since I watched both Clannad and AS before the simarlities are really profound, (I know they are made by the same animation studio/company) but I only really expected the art style to be the same. The characters in this are of a quite similar design to Clannad (Yukito is Tomoya with Kamio being Nagisa, while Michiru reminds me alot of Fuko).

Good start to this series, looking forward to see more.

I disagree on the comparison of Yukito/Tomoya and Misuzu/Nagisa. If your talking about their personalities, I don't really see any similarity.

It's a pretty good show but.. i'm just not feeling the characters.

I don't see many similarities in those characters, but the red-haired girl reminds me a lot of Mei from Clannad. Their voices are pretty similar, too.

If you don't think Kano choking Yukito at the end of this episode is something, then you are beyond hope. I'd recommend dropping it because if didn't notice that then you are going to be completely lost about what is going on this series.

Maybe try again in a few years when you're sick of the generic ecchi stuff that you're watching now (it'll happen eventually, believe it or not). Everybody craves something with substance every now and again after all.

So Kano looks to be possessed by something...the story feels a bit rush, but at least there's no time for filler.

Yeah I saw Clannad and After Story before this show, and was expecting a deep story. I love the way these characters are growing a bit by bit, but good grief, I can't decide which characters I like best at this point.

I kind of dislike how Yukito basically forgets here (not sure if that was this episode or next), but I like that he remembered the money, and instead of barging in listens and leaves letting them have their moment. I really felt the emotion of Hijiri for her sister Kano in this episode, but I so didn't see Kano doing that at the end. The next episode I hope explains a few things, as I do feel bad for the two sisters.

One other thing, at first I didn't like the Michiru Yukito relationship, but I think I'm starting to see that it wasn't meant to be an abusive type of thing in Episode 1. The two seem to be bragging on each other so much and I wonder why that is... More to watch yae!

I wasn't too fond of the first two episodes but I have a rule of watching the first 3 episodes of an anime to give it a fair shot - and I'm so happy I follow this!

It was a funny episode so I would have kept watching anyway - but that ending! It was so unexpected! The main girl (I'm horrible with names) is actually starting to grow on me as well. The dinosaur collection was adorable :D

This anime keeps on getting better and better, it's so inspiring, and carefree, and somewhat serious in the same time. Yukito is one of the best characters ever, but every character here besides him is great too. Ma-a-an, what a great anime this is!

Awesome episode.

The Kano story is picking up nicely. DAT ENDING!!
I wonder if it's a split personality or someone possessing her. I guess time will tell.

It's nice to see Yukito care so much about strangers he barely knows.

The preview was full of questions? What will Kano do? Kill herself? But she couldn't "return from that". I foresee a sad ending to this arc. Well this is Key so I would not be surprised.

Misuzu is still adorable as hell. Her "V" makes me want to hug her until she DIES!!!!!
Her relationship with her Mother seems really iffy though. Hopefully some good development from that part.

Yukito and the loli girl have a nice little thing going, the love/hate relationship. Still she annoys me a bit.

The calm girl is really interesting and really likeable imo. Can't wait for her arc :)

5/5

Kinda feels like this anime is going to be seriously damaged by a rush job that makes it impossible to feel for the characters. The only reason story arcs hit so hard in Clannad and Kanon (what I've seen of it so far, anyway) is because you are given plenty of episodes to care about a character before something terrible happens.

Hopefully I'm wrong and Air finds another way around this, but that's definitely what it's looking like.
