Comments on: Kanon - 22 (with three books this time!) http://www.moemoerabu.net/2007/03/04/kanon-22-with-three-books-this-time/ an otaku fan of all things moé Thu, 20 Nov 2008 07:47:34 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Nightingale http://www.moemoerabu.net/2007/03/04/kanon-22-with-three-books-this-time/#comment-1993 Nightingale Mon, 05 Mar 2007 04:38:08 +0000 http://www.moemoerabu.net/2007/03/04/kanon-22-with-three-books-this-time/#comment-1993 >>The way Ayu’s accident was presented left it rather confusing questioning if Ayu is really dead. The scene at the end with the red hair band makes it even more confusing as it doesn’t seem to fit into the timeline of events. - ahhh a very common reaction, just to clear up confusion, the last scene of U1 presenting the gift to Ayu is in fact a reality-denial, self-protection "memory" that U1 made up. It nvr took place in reality. If anyone gonna ask why does the present Ayu who just go poof has it then, well... im not gonna spoil it for everyone here... - - other the other hand, for Ayu's injury, i think she's suffering from internal bleeding in the back of the brain, where the blood clot blocks the neural links that controls other systems, rather than actually breaking her neck. From the lost of glaze in Ayu's eyes it looks to me that she's beginning to lose eyesight too at that point. Breaking the neck would cut the brain from signaling only muscles below neck point, but internal bleeding is more servere since it can block up to anything such as eyesight, even lung/heart muscles that will ultimately lead to death. Just a lil opinion of mine =) >>The way Ayu’s accident was presented left it rather confusing questioning if Ayu is really dead.

But I guess we'll find out in the next episode. As for the 25th and 26th episodes, that is what I have read about. But since there is also 3 weeks till April I'm hoping there will be those last two eps. Tarmin: lol, no it's not a life-size Nayuki doll. Just wait till next week, it's somehting that'll make a lot of people jealous. Rosemary: I'll have to rewatch it to see the blood. I saw the episode titles on ANN and my speculation might come true. Also I know about the WP update but thanks anyway. daRAT: I’m thinking that as well, surely she would have broken her neck. But I guess we’ll find out in the next episode.

Although there was no blood, seeing the colour of her eyes fade away and passing away in the middle of the pinky promise was pretty dramatic.” Actually, there was blood. If you look closely in one of the scenes (where she asks Yuuichi to do a pinky promise and it goes to a shot of her unmoving hand), you'll notice the snow underneath Ayu is darkened with blood. The blood's just not as prominent of a factor as it is in Toei's version. And yes, I know I notice the strangest of things when I should be focusing on other things while watching :P Oh, and I found on someone else's blog that "Canon of the End of a Dream ~kanon~" is episode 24's name. Apparently it's only 24 episodes though (not absolutely positive about this since it's still speculation), but assuming by the title of episode 24, it seems like that'd be the official end. I think kyoani might span the end of the arc between the two episodes, with (like you said you hoped for) an aftermath of sort for most of 24. ( PS, you probably know this already, but in case you didn't, you might want to check Wordpress about a security update they have - http://wordpress.org/development/2007/03/upgrade-212/ ) “Also with Ayu’s accident, I find it rather sad to see how it went, despite knowing that she was going to fall.

Why don't you just admit that you bought a lifesize Nayuki doll? ;-) daRAT: From what I've heard there are 26 episodes, but the last two are recaps of the series. “This concludes the Kanon Visual Fan Book, next week you’ll be in for a BIG surprise.”
