Kannagi turned into a harem

But it’s still good, so far.

Not really too much else worth mentioning about that, but hopefully the quality doesn’t falter. So far there’s been nothing original about the plot in general, so adding another anime cliché should just be another test of Kannagi’s ability to execute brilliantly. It’s still a bit early, but it hasn’t failed yet.

This is mostly an excuse to respond to remarks made by He-Who-Must-Be-Spoken-To-in-Trackbacks (you’re welcome for the trackback), which no one loves to do but the statement that “nobody … even paid attention” raised a flag. Heaping praise is being dumped on Kannagi from all over the webernets, and let’s just say I wasn’t the only one zaitcev glossed over when he decided he was the sole party who noticed the animation quality. In fact, I even mentioned the Lucky Star resemblance (passing mention, I guess, but the parallel is clear as day).

Why is it people have to imagine they’re the only ones to notice something? Some other bloggers I love have a tendency toward this underdog stuff as well. Maybe it’s everyone’s desire to be the one finding the hidden gem, but let’s just all get together here: Kannagi is pretty boss, it’s so boss that we all know it, time to start a fan club.

I believe I mentioned 4 comments. These are they (them?)

  1. TheBigN says:

    I’d be perfectly fine with just a Nagi fanclub myself. But the show has been much fun so far. :3

  2. Shin says:

    It pains me that you would call Kannagi a harem anime, since this label always seem to carry negative connotations. ):

    Nagi has explicitly mentioned that she has interest in someone else, while Zange has some sort of ulterior motive. Only Tsugumi wants some of Jin’s cock, from the looks of it.

    Also, I’m starting a Nagi fanclub. Care to join?

  3. admin says:

    I’m not convinced about Nagi’s interest in someone else. That’s not how these things work…

    Unless it’s me. Is it me?

    I’m all over a Nagi fanclub, though. I’ll make the t-shirts.

  4. This anime had me by the OP and hasn’t let me go yet. Nothing truly unique about it save for the superb execution. At the end of the show I’m just really happy and feel good about anime and life. The only tragedy is that it’s clear even to me that Nagi > Ranka, oh noes…
