tho theres already a thread about air in the general anime forum Air: Movie/TV thread since it has yet to be fansubbed. but hey its going to be subbed most likely. its similar to Kanon. If you liked KGNE, Kanon, and romance type animes this will be good for ya. I'm really looking forward to this show since I really liked KGNE. Doh didn't noticed it said 2/5/05 cuz the prelude dvd promo said 1/05 looks like it got pushed back a month

I've played the game, and it's not really a harem at all in the guy chasing after many girls sense. There is an overabundance of the female sex, because of its genre. Whether it is "good" or not depends on your preferences for anime and also how well the directors pull it off.

The TV show starts airing in Japan at Jan 6, 2005 at 24:30 (Jan 7, 2005 12:30am)
The movie starts showing February 5, 2005. I haven't actually seen KGNE, but from I've heard, KGNE seems to have a lot of relationship drama, whereas AIR, the game at least, does not have as much drama. There's less of a focus on romantic love relationships than usual games of its genre. AIR will most likely be closer in style to Kanon, though the TV series shouldn't be as diluted as the Kanon TV series, because Kanon originally had 5 paths in the game version, whereas AIR only has 3 paths (and I'm guessing they're going to concentrate on the main path).

MakubeX2 · 2004-12-26, 09:46

AIR does not focus on the romance aspect on relationships alone. The scenarior focus on other apsects such as paternal & maternal, master & servents and siblings.

Kanon will not be an appropiate comparison since it covers just romance alone.

AIR is deeper then Kanon when it comes to the subject of relationships.

For the TV series similarity to the movie, yes and no. The climatic scene with Mizusu is of course the same, but other than that, it is more different than similar. I prefered the TV series more than the movie. Watching the series first since t's longer helps immense yourself inthe show more than if you did the movie first since you already know the ending then.

Well it's not a typical romance harem/love triangles like SHUFFLE, as for KNGE level drama, it definitely has a lot of that (at the end). All I can tell you is that this is not a happy series in terms of the plot itself but the relations between people will be shown to be important and even override the sadness of the events themselves. There is some romance and a main male lead but it's not the single most important theme of the show. The show definitely has an overall "mood or feel" and also a strong mythological/spiritual background as well.

As I'm obviously a fan of the show my reply is probably biased. Overall I liked AIR TV for my own reasons that may be different from others here. The best way is to just watch 2 or 3 eps and see if you like it or not.

Well said =).

Leo Otaku, what's that countdown for?

andiyar · 2006-01-03, 20:09

The countdown was to the original on-air date of AIR TV. Which was, what, the 6th of January last year, if memory serves

-Andiyar

Leo_Otaku · 2006-01-04, 00:54

LOL yeah when the board crashed er whatever it had that from like pre january XD must fix

Sinestra · 2006-01-05, 20:16

i finally got around to watching all of Air and finished i like it and it made me tear up at the end that never happens but i have a few questions if someone is willing to answer

1. Was the curse lifted
2 Misuzu is the rencarnation of kana right?
3. why did she still die at the end even she did all the things she wanted to
4. why was kana cursed in the first plave and what exactly did it do i understood it a little bit but fully

ForeverGoNe · 2006-01-05, 21:57

1. No
2. Yes
3. It couldn't be prevented, there would always be dreams. She was able to fulfill her summer feeling like a real daughter to Haruka. That was her goal that summer. She wanted a friend, and she achieved it (her mother).
4. She was cursed never being able to sleep. She would restlessly fly the sky and Misuzu had those dreams constantly that made her back ache.
