Pre-Key Tactics Games with Cameos in Kanon 2k6
Yippee for gamer's input Thanks nani. If there's any misspelling , incorrect info or stuff that needs adding, please let me know and I'll update the post.
Here's a short summary of the Tactics games that involved core Key team members before they left to form Key. So far, 2 of them had cameos in Kanon 2k6. DOUSEI Release date: 5/23/97 Tactic's debut game and the first game involving core Key team before leaving Tactics. No cameo so far in Kanon 2k6. MOON Original release date: 11/21/97 Last release date: 1/30/2003 It is said to be the second game to be produced by the core Key team before leaving Tactics, the first being Dousei. It follows Ikumi Amasawa as she goes to a secret organizaton named FARGO to find the cause of her mother's death. For a full discussion, please follow the link provided by nani here. It had a cameo in ep. 6 of Kanon 2k6. Main characters: Ikumi Amasawa Miyoko Amasawa Shounen Haruka Mikan (Mima) Ryosuke Mikan (Mima) Yui Nagura (Nakura) Yuri Nagura (Nakura) Youko Kanuma Takatsuki ONE ~kagayaku kisetsu e~ Original release date: 6/26/98 Last release date: 1/24/03 It is said to be the third game produced by core Key team before leaving Tactics to form Key. It also shares elements in common with Kanon. Kouhei Orihara has not recovered from the loss of his sister. As a result, he breaks a promise, losses connection with others, gets pulled into a spiritual world called "eternal world" and starts to disappear. More in depth discussion which contains spoilers to ONE and Kanon can be found here. It had a cameo in ep. 4 of Kanon 2k6.

Well, that would be giving away a spoiler. Actually, it could be a happy ending, a sad ending or a bittersweet one depending on what Kyo-Ani decides to do since the game scenarios also had those possibilities IIRC. It is a based on a "crying game" as defined by kj1980 Quote:

i have a question about how to watch kanon
seeing there are so many theories and speculations i think i should go with suspension of disbelief like Mai is indeed a demon hunter and Makoto is a girl with amnesia and she hates Yuuichi for some reason is it then okay to watch with this perspective? |

my advice is to keep an open mind and realize that the supernatural is completely integrated with the normal. Nothing can be taken for granted.
I guess my spoilerish hint is: Spoiler:

(thinks through each episode seen so far)
I'd give that a definite yes.... in fact, there are a pile of hints: always at least one for the overall story arc and one or more for each girl we've seen. Sometimes they won't glare out at you until the revelation later though.

yeah after this finished you should go back again and you'll realize that everything happened/said meant something. If you've already seen the TOEI's version or played the game, you'd be smilling and nodding all the time while watching KyoAni's version.

Funny how I just mentioned about this earlier on today in an IRC channel. Anyway, they are more like the four seasons of Key games (even though strictly speaking ONE is not released under Key). Another saying of four seasons of love adv games, in the order of Spring->Summer->Autumn->Winter, is CLANNAD, AIR, Memories Off (series), and Kanon.

In addition to the romantic relationship between the leading male/female characters, a very significant portion of the story actually focuses on the relationship between family members. Speaking of which, is there any update on the movie version since the initial announcement back in Mar? |

There's also something called ending credits. Quote:
But that's pretty much restricted to the common path portion of the game, really. Once you head into character specific paths, the seasons can really start to fly by. ^^; Quote:
Until then, we can only pray for a Kyoani CLANNAD anime announcement while imagining Tomoyo's 64 hit combo in animated glory. |

Its a mystery... so to say too much gives it away.
Setup: Yuuichi returns to a small town after 7 years, having left when he was a small boy. He doesn't remember much about it however there seem to be important unresolved issues with a number of women he meets. There, now go watch....

although kanon has an harem look, the content, the plot and the pace... the whole anime is absolutely not something you can compare with conventional harem. (yuuichi is not a loser, and probably NOT lucky in his situation, he is NOT here to grab a girl)
granted, this is rather a dramatic story, with lots of romantic touch, comedy and so on.
