I have to agree with all those opinions that Kannagi is not story driven. It is character driven. Though I respect mangaka for she was able to create such enjoyable characters, but lets be true - she fails at making good plot. Her attempts gets too distracted and eventually nor tension nor interest is present. Sure the last chapter was big boom but I think she freaked out a little by herself with that. Usually the actual plot leaves far far to be desired. She herself admitted that she has troubles with consistency - sometimes it goes too serious (plot driven) or too light (no plot, yay).
Same goes into anime. Though I personally think that anime does almost every thing better than the mangaka did, it still has those core problems with the consistency.
