As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!

Ok if some people hasn't watched the anime before let me give you a summary of it.
For starters, it came from a H game(dun worry none of that in the anime) and this was a remake version of Kanon that was released in 2002 which was not as good since it cramped 5 story arcs into 13 episodes and the art has improved in this remake.
Now for the story,

The story revolves around Aizawa Yuuichi(below) who is friendly and goes the extra mile to help his friends but he is kind of insensitive to girls thus teases them a lot in the show. At the start of the show he has no memory of time when he visited city in the past but slowly regains his memories through interaction with he people he met in the past. He is afraid of heights as well.

Minase Nayuki, she is Yuuichi's cousin and is a very heavy sleeper and she takes a long time to get up in the morning and will pass out several times during the morning before completely waking up.She has many alarm clocks in her room but instead wakes up Yuuichi instead and thus he has to go off each alarm and wake her up himself.Since she has such trouble waking up, she is always running for school and is in fact the school's star runner because of this and became captain in her second year. She likes anything with strawberries. She adores animals and can't resist petting one even cats which she is allergic to. She is in love with Yuuichi(in Japan, such relationships between first cousins are not only acceptable but common) ever since they were young. She has a catch phrase~Nyuu but only says it while she is sleeping or is sleepy.

Tsukimiya Ayu, she is the main heroine of this series. Although she looks like a child, she is the same age as Yuuichi and Nayuki 17 years old. She is verl clumsy and she trips very often in the anime, much like a child she is naive about common things, such as not knowing what a mobile phone is. She is very scared of anything to do with horror and becomes very terrified at the mere mention of them. She refers to herself using boku which is mainly used by guys. She also loves to eat taiyaki which is a fish shaped cake and is usually filled with red bean paste. She also has a catch phrase~Uguu.

Kawasumi Mai, she is 18 years old and is a third year student in the same school Yuuichi goes to. She is usually at school in the night defeating demons with a sword because of this she is constantly getting blamed for the damages but she never denies as she knows no one will believe her. Mai's idiosyncrasy is her unwillingness to carry on a conversation or even to merely utter the meekest of responses when addressed. Yuuchi uses food to get her to respond. She has a very close friendship with Kurata Sayuri(who is her only friend besides Yuuichi) who brings lunch for Mai and Yuuichi.

Misaka Shiori, she is 17 years old and is a first year are student in the same school Yuuichi goes to but because of a life threatening illness she has since birth she can't regularly attend class. Despite of this, she goes to school quite often but only to stand and wait wait at the school yard and is visited Yuuichi. She loves drama and is always inventing reasons for things that happen in her life, she has a noticeably quiet voice though is not afraid about adding a smart alec remark during a conversation in an attempt to sound cooler. She is the only heroine in Kanon whom Yuichi did not meet in the past.

Sawatari Makoto, is a young girl who attacked Yuichi Aizawa suddenly in the middle of town early on in the story but fainted and is carried back by Yuuichi to Nayuki's house where she lives as a guest for the remainder of her story. Despite having lost her memories, she remembers what her name is and is sure that she holds a grudge against Yuuichi, because of this she is seen constantly playing pranks on Yuuichi but he manages to turn each one of them against her. Makoto can be clueless about things that people her age should know, such as the fact that she can buy her own meat buns and manga. Like Nayuki and Ayu, she too has a catch phrase~Auu.

Which of the three anime produced by Key is better,
-Kanon
-Air
-Clannad
I personally like all of them but kanon takes the price though clannad is also very funny.

This certainly make me want to watch the series, though, how long is it?
Is it all romance and comedy? Parodies too?
I'm just curious please bear with me...

Ok every of the 4 girls(minus Shiori) has some connections with Yuuichi in the past mostly is him being kind, friendly and playing with them. He forgets all of this due to. . . neh no spoilers. He regains he memories of each one of them in their respective story arcs except for * * * who he keeps recalling.Though Sawatari's(dun like to use makoto due to the anime school days) story arc is the saddest, the rest is pretty sad and definitely deserves to be on the plan to watch list plus high priority!

I asked someone who made a thread offering to make others sigs if he'll turn it to the official request section and he did. so how a about it?
and we should use our mal sigs over here. we just have to resize it.

Kanon is not your everyday harem romance story, its able to level sad parts and comedy very well. And most of the comedic parts involves Sawatari's pranks backfiring, Ayu's clumsiness or Nayuki's sleepiness. Ok lets discuss each character one by one starting with Nayuki(Hauu! I want to take her home!~Rena). Caution! Only read forward if you have watch it or want spoilers
