Maybe Kanon was too shocked and cried later, when Battler wasn't around?

What can I say, he happens to be my favorite character... Even if I like him better in the Visual Novels.

I think Kanon is a very particular character. He's got a weak body, he could be mistaken for a girl, he even got a female VA. But you would never think of him as effeminate considering his behavior. He has his own cool moments, like when he challenged directly Beatrice with that cleaver. Sure he might have died in the end, but he's almost on par with Battler as for courage and resolution.

He's also one of the most enigmatic characters of the whole human cast. He's the one who is affected by the worst case of furniture complex. After Rosa he's the one who's mostly dominated by rage. He dislikes Gohda, he dislikes Eva, he even dislikes Natsuhi. And that's ironic considering his furniture complex. Furnitures are not allowed to love but they are allowed to hate their master?

Why is it that he calls Shannon "Neesan" and he's so attached to her? Could their relationship be that strong when they were merely 6 years old? And after that supposedly he's never seen her for the next seven years.

Something could have happened when they were both 6 years old. Like, the rest of the kids at the orphanage could have bullied him, or picked on him, and Shannon was the only one who would stand up for him or (more probable) played and stayed with him?

Those memories of her kindness more than likely stayed with him for the next seven years, and when they met again, he calls her "Nee-san" to show a kind of gratitude/respect to her, who looked out for him like an older sister.

It might even be that they are actually related by blood. I'm one of those sticking to this idea.

That might be the case as well. However, now I'm wondering if there's any reason why they would lie that they aren't blood-related.

If they are brother and sister then they must be twins.

The similar looking thing is one of the best arguments of the Shkanon-Theory. But oh well I think it might be a possibility that they are twins. I mean maybe they can't remember that they are blood related or something. Or maybe they have reason. It isn't impossible

There's no such thing as magic.

(But if there is, then, yeah. So they're effectively siblings.)

Works for Shannon and Kanon, since they probably went through Kinzo's brainwashing in their youth, but not so much for Genji. But I do think Genji has some separate reason for his loyalty to Kinzo.

Because it's prettier and shows off wealth better.
Side effects include having your child fall in love with it (and possibly raping it). Lulz ensues.

Exotic furninture is a hallmark of the rich.
