I will seriously never comprehend how someone having a "favorite character" prevents their being able to appreciate and be fond of other characters, especially when the story *needs* those interlocking relationships to work.

I think you've confused yourself for "we all". Some of us found the whole series to have emotional impact, even if there was a particular character we enjoyed.

Calling Kanon a "harem anime" is kind of like calling The Diary of Anne Frank a "nazi story" ... well... yes.. and no, not really. Simple labels or rote categorization usually undervalue a story. I mean, Deathnote is just a detective story with a few monsters, eh?

But yes, I'm very anxious to see Lucky*Star and hopefully more satirical Haruhi...
