Character discussion - Kyou

Spoiler for Scenes they need to have:

1. Kyou in the rain (Oh, you can just feel the angst!)
2. The conclusion kiss (Freaking kiss all ready!)
3. Ryou Conclusion (Needed for closure)
4. Kyou Epilogue (Sweet scene that always makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside)

I second these with one addition plus an extra detail:

Spoiler for Other things I'd like to see as well:

• Tomoya's "date" with Kyou that ends with the "practice" kiss.
• Getting to see more of Botan's trained skills would be a plus as well.

Ah...memories...

[Tyabann]

I wonder how they'll do this route without the onscreen kissing. I mean, it was kind of important.

This might be a result of that marriage.

Mom, why are you wearing your high school buruma?

- Tak (And I wonder if they are going to name that child... Ryou?)

[swtrooper42]

It's something you'll understand when you're older dear. Now go play with your cousin.
(lol, Ryou and Kappei reference)

(What would they name her? Well there's always Tomoya's mother.)

Well, if you mix her and Tomoya's name, you'd get something like Kozue.

I don't know...

朋也 + 杏

Cannot quite get the inspiration for 梢

Ushio I can understand. Then again, if its Kyou's kid, don't ya think she'd get first dibs on the name? And I somehow doubt she'd be as creative as Nagisa

I used the radicals.
For Tomoya's name I used the first kanji - 朋. The radical is 月.
For Kyou's name kanji - 杏, the main radical is 木.

So, if I put 月 and 木 together, one of the many results I get is 梢 (Kozue). Well, if you want to keep Kyou's and Ryou's name-style, then I guess you can also read 梢 as Shou.

Yes, I understand that, although it has no relation in its meaning to either parent's name.

I was thinking more in terms of a word that can carry both parents' name, like Ushio.

[Ithekro]

Well Kyou...demon? Or mirror?

What about Tomoya?

Ushio only makes reference to Nagisa's name.

Kyou's name means apricot tree.

I'm not sure about Tomoya's, but I think it'd be something like "a companion".

[Proto]

Remember that normally, when constructing Japanese names, parents normally give a single radical of their names, or a single kanji on their names when using compund kanji.
So Used Can's idea is actually right

In the case of Nagisa and Ushio you can see that they followed this tradition since both kanji's have the radical of water.

[Kinny Riddle]

As expected, Kyo-Ani will make a Kyou DVD special episode to mirror Tomoyo's DVD episode for the first series. Looks like all the fears and bitterness of all Kyou admirers about whether or not Kyo-Ani would do this, which has sadly led to it constantly getting in the way of proper discussion about Tomoya and Nagisa's main story, will finally be laid to rest once and for all.

By the way, just out of curiosity, how many episodes is K-On rumored to be?

[Ithekro]

Rumored: 13
Some say more based on date of DVD/Blu-Ray releases.
No known confirmation either way.

Note: Even if it was 26 it would not interfere with any potential Key-based anime releases for the Fall season.

[Tak]

With all the talk of a special Kyou OVA, I begin to wonder if there are others who prefer Kyou and/or Tomoyo over Nagisa Not that Nagisa is a bad character, but I want some excitement in life

The ultimate triangle, hands down:



- Tak (No, not even Macross can top that)

[Proto]

but I want some excitement in life

Having a death prone wife is not enough of an emotional rollercoaster for you?

You want some excitement out of Nagisa? Then I have a suggestion...get her drunk.
