The story takes place in a city. It revolves around a second year highschool student, Aizawa Yuichi returning to the city after 7 years when he first visit the city. He decided to stay with his cousin, minase naiyuki and her mother Akiko. After going away for so long, he has long forgotten of what happened 7 years ago in this city. On the day of his returns, he is out with naiyuki showing him around the city and to buy ingredients for the dinner. Yuichi refuses to go in the store with naiyuki as he was afraid that he would be lost. While waiting at the side walk, a girl, Tsukimiya ayu bang into him and drag him into a cafe and confess that she had steal a taiyaki unknowing as she was scared off by the owner before she has a chance to pay. Yuichi drags ayu back to the store and apologise and was forgiven. They then decided to meet up again.
A few days later, another girl, sawatari makoto bang into yuichi. She has no memories of her past but still remembering her grudge again yuichi. After she collapse, yuichi then brought her home and learn about her situation where she was given permission to stay at Akiko house which yuichi was against it.
Later, she got to know another girl, kawasumi mai who is at the same highschool. She is always fighting demons in school at night when the school is deserted. Thus, she is always blame for all the accidents that happen in school. Where later, yuichi also joins mai at night almost everyday. By coincidence, yuichi met another girl, misaka shiori. She has suffered from an unknown disease ever since she was born which made her body too weak to attend school. Yuichi starts to talk to her after noticing her in the school courtyard. It turns out that she was waiting for someone dear to her. As the story goes on, yuichi starts to remember bits of the memories 7 years ago and the connection he has with the 5 girls.
The story focus primary on yuichi and the 5 girls in the story. Where there are a few side characters every here and there. Like i mentioned just now, Kanon is very very similar to clannad. Even the characters personality are very similar. The settings are quite similar too in the sense that the main character met a lot of girls by coincidence where he later know that they have actually met before. One key similarities is that it contains the element fantasy and miracle. Yes, i should say the whole story revolves around miracle. Without this element, the story is a sure thumbs down.
I should say the story is a good in a sense that it is pretty organised. What i meant is that the story actually follows a sequence where the story concentrate on yuichi and a girl and solve her so call problems before moving on to another girl. This is essentially critical as it makes the story looks more neat and also help the watcher under stand better :D Also,Most of time, the story would sent you laughing all the way. It is very entertaining and relaxing. Also most of time in the story, it is kept in suspense that would urge you to carry on watching. So this surly add points to the anime.
Of course, it does has its bad point. One season is definitely not enough. The ending is good but not satisfying enough. It is because the ending somehow set it into a beginning of another story.It would make the watcher want to continue on. So i believe that if it has a season 2, it would be Gr-awesome ( great and awesome ).
For me, Kanon is slightly better that clannad. Saying that clannad is still great. Both series would surely sent you laughing and crying :DD Overall, i feel that the anime is definitely worth for you to sacrifice some of your time to watch. Good anime' are always worth people's time to watch xD
Now for the song part.Okay it has nothing much because it only has one opening and one ending song and a few characters song.
1. Last regrets by Ayana ( op 1 )
2. Kaze no Tadoritsuku Basho by Ayana ( op 2 )
My personal favourite is Last regrets. The song title is pretty cool aye ? :DD It is not that catchy but at least it does fill you with emotion.
Ciao su~~~
