Movie Reviews of Kanon, Volume 3Movie Review: Kanon Volume 3 Review Summary: 5 StarsThis volume concludes the "Makoto Arc" and begins a new one, "Mai Arc". The Makoto Arc ends in a dramatic fashion where Makoto starts regaining back her memories which then leads her to completely lose human traits. Afterwards the attention is then focused towards Mai. Now not much is known about Mai, as the only thing we know so far is she fights against spirits that dwell in the school late at night. Another thing we know is Mai does not like to talk a lot and she has gotten herself a reputation within the school and it's not a good one since she tends to be accused of destroying school property. In order to improve her image, Yuichi decides to have Mai go to the school dance and he succeeds in convincing her to go. All is well until something happens at the dance and that concludes this volume.
I have to say after watching 3 volumes of Kanon so far so good. Though this volume focused more on Mai and Makoto, other "main characters" did get some spotlight and that is important for the later arcs. I particularly enjoyed the scene between Nayuki and Ayu when they met for the first time, even though Ayu has been eating at Akiko's place for some time. Also, Yuichi begins to learn a bit more about Shiori and pretty much you can guess that will be the next arc after Mai.
I highly recommend this volume for those who have been watching Kanon thus far. If you have not been watching any Kanon, please purchase and watch volumes 1 and 2 before viewing this volume as it will not make much sense.
P.S. I would have done this review early if I had gotten volume 2 with box earlier than later. Also, the ending credit claims that volume 4 should be out around April, but according to some reports it looks to be sometime around May. Remember this is not confirmed news.
Summary of Kanon, Volume 3Yuichi's relationship with Makoto grows more and more confusing each day. It seems the closer the two become the less they understand about one another. The bond between the two has developed from a once volatile exchange of insults into a caring and protective union. Their connection has swelled beyond friendship and reached a level which the two of them may not be able to handle. Meanwhile Mai has begun to open up to Yuichi - albeit very cautiously. Seeing signs of her gradual acquiescence Yuichi feels compelled to work even harder to being Mai out of her shell. On the one hand his efforts are commendable but the outcome could send things in the opposite direction.System Requirements:Running Time: 100 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: ANIMATION/ANIME UPC: 702727185427 Manufacturer No: DKN/003
