Yea, I think the issue here is that there's only so much you can tease the audience with, and at this point with the rather lame confessions it doesn't seem like there was much underneath the surface to begin with. (Read: low payoff)

(BTW the end of Kanon was very, very badly written into the story).
Well, that anime had flashback scenes throughout the series that served as a foreshadowing, though I would find your reaction understandable due to the terrible pacing problems the series had especially at the end. But in Kanon's case it was still possible to figure out what was going on to some degree before you get smacked in the face with it. Ore imo, I'm not nearly as convinced and this is related to the first thing I quoted.
