The first episode of this was really fun. Nagi has to be one of the cutest anime girls ever. I'll keep watching just for her.

[Desuka Kira]

I plan on picking this one up as well. I'm getting the first episode now.

[kogetairo]

It's a high-quality anime. Because some staff members of Kyoto Animation Co.,Ltd. and (C) Animation Do at the former company participate in the creater-team and make it, how to show is very good.

I'm looking forward to the series.

[Jura]

I bought volume one of the manga for a dollar, so it must be good!

[Seri-Kun]

I'm suprised how good the first episode was. First of all I expected the guy to be the typical male lead type guy and to my utter shock, he wasn't! That gets huge marks from me. That alone made me want to keep watching it but since i've read the manga I was really interested in this show anyway. Great art, the voices are good, the personalities are also pretty interesting, even if the main guy is a little TOO accepting. Either way this makes about 4 shows i'm following this new season.

[FrOsT]

The second episode was so funny with the wand stuck to the table, the split personality, and Nagi chasing after the frog. There was also some serious parts to like when the kittens died and Nagi not wanting to answer Jins questions about her absorbing them added a little mystery to it.

[CruelAngelsFeces]

I LIKE THIS SHOW

Kind of. Its kinda funny

[Seri-Kun]

I've read a lot of the manga and so far it seems to be sticking pretty faithfully to the material. I like that a lot. Good series to follow

[CruelAngelsFeces]

I LIKE THIS SHOW

Kind of. Its kinda funny

did i say kind of? Starting to like it more and more :)

[Mr. Gruntsworthy]

The animation is superb. Normally I stick to older-audience animes like Black Lagoon, Michiko e Hatchin, etc but this one has my interest, and i'm keeping watch.

Gonna watch ep. 5 tomorrow morning when i get some free time

[Zeikku]

I randomly came across this show while watching Kaze No Stigma. The title had the same name as the main female role's last name:Ayano Kannagi. But once i started watching it i couldnt stop, this show is awesome in my opinion.

[Dooork]

just watched the first ep. and I had a very good first impression of this show the story and animation are both top notch, more like movie quality then a show. they must have spent allot making this.

[CruelAngelsFeces]

ep 9 was hilarious. Love how they thought he was Fay.

[Jariaya-senpai]

The cutest is Index....Nagi is a close third (#2 is Ruby from R+V).

I watched the first 5 episodes. I hadn't laughed to hard from an anime in a long time. There were some inside jokes about other anime in it.

It's definately one of the gems of this season.

[JRG]

I imagine there were plenty of people wetting themselves with glee with all the Lucky Star References in episode 10.

I however was just disappointed that Akiba didn't sing "My Pace Daiou"...

[FrOsT]

This is by far the funniest show of the season for me.

[Clintonio]

This is a pretty decent anime, I've laughed a fair amount, and unlike other shows of this genre, it isn't overly crude in its execution.

Nagi is cute too.

Though, my favourite character is Daitetsu. He's pretty much comedy.

I'm suprised this anime hasn't gained more attention on A4. Though, I guess the otaku crowd was kinda driven out ages ago.

[Jariaya-senpai]

I imagine there were plenty of people wetting themselves with glee with all the Lucky Star References in episode 10.
Actually there has been two Lucky Star references in the series so far. The first was when the Nagi web-site went up and one of the "students" said he was fired from Lucky Star after 4 episodes because he didn't have enough directorial experience.

I got more of a giggle from Haruhi making an appearance.

I found this on basically being bored, so I watched it. I thought it was going to be similar to AMG. It wasn't, and yes the female characters are all cute.
Daitetsu is practically the straight man who's physical size does not show him to be hulking type character we've come to expect from anime.

[Clintonio]

The Haruhi appearance made me O_O. I'm not really looking out for references, and don't get a lot of them, so I was a little suprised.

Anyway, I just saw episode 9, good episode. Though, it was very typical of what happens in these kinds of shows.

Downloading 10 now.

[Opace]

Episode 10:

Pretty much a mediocre setting for the episode, but it has got its humourous parts. But man I did love that Lucky Star reference. I thought the door at the beginning 40 seconds of the episode look strangely familiar..

[Dooork]

it seems like they need to add romance and Harem to the description the farther into the show we get.

[Jariaya-senpai]

I would like to see that also. It seems that the idea of the male lead in many animes actually having a g/f would somehow ruin the series. I want to see Jin with his childhood friend instead of either Nagi or Zange.

Zange is only flirting with Jin to get at Nagi (who has shown no interest in Jin).

Zange herself may just be flirting with Jin to get at Nagi, But the girl who's body she's in has developed a crush on Jin.

[Jariaya-senpai]

Dang it your right. I keep forgetting that Zange is possessing Hukara (sp?).

[FrOsT]

Lol, I forget to. Sometimes I find myself thinking how cute Zange is, Then I realise its's Hukara who's the cute one.

[Opace]

Dang it your right. I keep forgetting that Zange is possessing Hukara (sp?).

I'm pretty sure it was Hakua, I think.

To be honest, I want Jin to get together with.. no one ultimately. Oh sure, one relationship here and there, but I would love a dramatic end to the series. Like that's going to happen.

Edit: Is it only me or the opening song got me so hooked? It's not in a really high pitched voice like most which makes is realistic and nice to listen. The background accompliment is also nice with the trumpets.

[Jariaya-senpai]

I'm pretty sure it was Hakua, I think.
You're right. Dang, why can't Japanes women have easy names, just Chris, or Lisa, or Debbie....:roll:

It's a very good song. I like the OST version myself over the tv one. Besides Discoteque from R+V it's the second most played song on my iTunes/iPod.

[Clintonio]

@jaraiya;
Because those sound like the names of ugly prostitutes or poor people.

Though, that might just be me and my general hate towards common sounding western names ;)


OT; I love the intro, in fact, I'll be getting the entire OST when it hits. The animation to the intro threw me off a little; I though it was scenes from the show -_-

[Jariaya-senpai]

A site I also visit a lot deals with the OSTs of animes. Right now only the full OP and a couple singles have been released. As soon as the full OST comes out I'll make mention of it.



Top 10 popular female baby names:
1. Emily
2. Isabella
3. Emma
4. Ava
5. Madison
6. Sophia
7. Olivia
8. Abigail
9. Hannah
10. Elizabeth
I wouldn't be caught dead naming any of my girls these names....and usually popular names float down from the rich. We really went OT on this one.

Okay.....topic time!!!! Who is your favorite character, male or female?

Me? I could go for the popular Zange, but I like Takako. You rarely see a female otaku pervert (bloody nose and all). Actually Akiba is the biggest otaku.

Notice he used the word 'easy'. ;) I like Japanese names, it's unique and different, mostly.


It's a very good song. I like the OST version myself over the tv one. Besides Discoteque from R+V it's the second most played song on my iTunes/iPod.

To be honest, I like both versions. Whilst we're having a crack at foreign words, it's Discotheque. It is a very good song as well, close to Techno-like. I generally like Nana Mizuki's songs.

Back to topic: I thought they were from the show as well, I was sort of dissapointed when I realized it wasn't.

[Jariaya-senpai]

The subbed epi 11 is now out. Sadly I won't be d/ling it until this evening after work. :(

[Clintonio]

Well, time for Kannagi wallpapers/pictures I think.

[Jariaya-senpai]

Kannagi deserves as much exposure as possible. I can understand why. :p

The Nagi from the tree, did you notice that she had boobs compared to how Jim made her without any? LOL.

Oh, I was able to find both the latest scan (that would be ch 13) and I was able to upload that and the contriversal chapter (ch 36) (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=S3PIA4OZ).

Episode 11:

A wierd yet excellent episode. They're getting back into the original plot.. with a hint of mystery. Though I did laugh for ages at the 1st quater of the episode. Great stuff.

[FrOsT]

I thought ep. 11 was a little slow. It was decent though, even know I want to see more Zange.

[Freedom]

Anybody want to give me a quick summary of episode 11? I was falling asleep during it and couldn't follow all of the drama.

What I got out of it was that Nagi disappeared because Jin doubted her status as a Goddess. Is that correct?

[Opace]

Basically,

Many people calling Jin a Bi, Homo and the like. He doesn't really care until he fell from the window onto the roof before when he tried to catch the impurity. He asked Nagi why she needed to cleanse it and questions similar. She got pissed off and cried (!) a little. She goes to the roof and actually can't remember why and how the impurities got about. Jin goes and asks Hakua's father about Nagi and tells him that she's a goddess. That guy questions what kind of Goddess she is, and there is no proof that she is a Goddess. Jin goes to the library to search through a thick list of deities, but exclaims that he cannot find Nagi. The episode ends with the library return slip with Nagi as the last borrower of the book/listings.

Yeah.

[Jariaya-senpai]

What Opace said. It was basically an episode about identies.

[BakaOnna]

So I just started this series (finished up to ep 3). So when does it get better? :lol::?

Hopefully by the next episode with the introduction of Zenge.

If you don't like it by episode 3 I doubt you will like the series. It doesn't change much, Zange just adds drama and fanservice.

Fanservice is right, Zange adds some more eye candy.

Though, Nagi-sama wins outright.

So I gave in and started the watching series. This probably one the funniest series of I have seen this year, well next to Nodame no Cantabile: Paris.

1 - 10 was hilarious, hell, even the filler 10 was hilarious.

Well if anyone didn't know the author got sick and went to hospital so they probably going to show fillers or they won't be any episodes for a while until she recovered.


The editors of Comic Rex made a statement in the January 2009 issue to be sold on December 9, 2008 that the manga will be on hiatus due to concern about the author's health.[2] The installment of the manga just prior to the author's illness caused some fan controversy, but was not linked to her illness. The author underwent surgery on December 12, 2008 and is recovering

We've been talking about that here in the manga section.

[Strahan]

It's a very good song. I like the OST version myself over the tv one. Besides Discoteque from R+V it's the second most played song on my iTunes/iPod.

I too like the OP song. Not too crazy about the ED song though. I also love Discotheque from R+V. My iPod sees alot of that one, Toradora's OP/ED, Wagaya no Oinari-sama OP/ED, and a few from ef.

Just watched ep 12. Funny how this show can swing from hilarious to sad drama so fast heh. I like it, not complaining. The whole part at the school with the misinterpretations about Jin and Daitetsu were funny as hell, especially the confession from Honda then you have the sad ep 12. Can't wait for the closing ep to see how they wrap it up.

[Jariaya-senpai]

Epi. 12 was very well done. First off Zange kicked some butt. Don't get on her bad side. LOL

Then seeing how much Nagi effected Jin. Makes me wonder if he's mad at himself for doubting she was a god and thus feeling guilty about it or he really misses her.

[Opace]

Episode 12:

Man, not seeing Nagi for an entire episode really sucks. Nevertheless, great episode; especially the background music. The piano piece in the middle and the piano version of Motto Hade ni ne was excellent and very fitting.

Sort of a melancholic episode, but that's great also. Just goes to show how much Nagi rules.

[Arinamoon]

Great anime! couldnt take myself away from the screen. Pluss never seen this type of anime befor where a goddess loves to sing and dance.

[Jariaya-senpai]

There is only one word that describes epi. 13.....WOW!!!

For most of the epi it was pulling at your heart strings. The ending was typical Nagi/Jin. Also it was left with a small cliffhanger (nothing major). ALso the whole motto hade ni ne was played as the EP.

For anyone I highly recommend this series to watch, no matter what your genre favorites are. This series get's a 20 out of 10.

edit: if anyone is truely a fan and had made any positive remarks will be getting a plus reputation from me. I can't say enough positive things about the series.

Okay, I don't read the manga so I didn't know. Well that's good to know there is enough material to keep the series going for a little bit (even though it is thirteen episodes this season). Enough material for a second season maybe?

[no_life_king]

Has the series already ended? I heard this is a good one so I'm gonna watch it.

I wouldn't bet on a second season to be honest. But as it stands, it'll probably be a year before there is actually enough material for a continuation.

Edit:

Episode 13:

Seriously, I have mixed feelings about this as an ending episode for Kannagi. On the one hand, I liked it. It was fairly good, it wasn't brilliant but passable. We get a semi-nudity shot of Nagi. On the other hand, I disliked it. It felt rushed, and through this the animation quality was, literally, shot.



You don't see me type this too often, it is one of my favourite phrases. If you do see me type this anywhere, you'd know how awesome I find it to be:

Daitetsu is a legend. <--- He makes me laugh too much. XD



Well, then the whole Jin gets surprised followed by Nagi also followed by Jin drops his glass and it shatters followed by Nagi tripping over followed by Jin tries to stop her fall since he does not want to see Nagi hurt followed by almost having sex with Nagi if Tsugumi did not come to stop it! All that is just sick! Nagi seeing naked makes me really sick as a Christian that at the very least can link Nagi to the Saint Marie for the simple reason that she is land deity therefore one who can do the good work of God. There is not need to see her naked.


What part of it being 'sick' do you deem a guy being surprised at a girl suddenly walking around naked in a towel, dropping his glass full of water and saving the girl from deep cuts from the shards of glass when she tripped over his foot? It's a normal situation in Anime, especially the ecchi ones where they get into an accidental, suggestive position. In this case, they did.

Slayer545-sama, you seriously need to 'read' the atmosphere. Do you seriously think he would proceed to have sex, or rape, Nagi before he was interrupted? I'll give 3 reasons why not:


- Jin, at this moment, has only just realised his attraction to Nagi. He'd soon rather die of embarrassment than do what you suggested he was about to do.

- Jin's an idiot and a coward, but he knows what's right and what's wrong.

- I want you to rewatch that scene again and see if there is any sexual feelings integrated in there. No, wait.. I didn't see any, nor will you; so don't try.

BTW these are my original thoughts:

Great rarri! Guess we going to check it out together. :D

First of all on behalf of Nagi Merry Holidays! Second I will yell out "WHERE THE HELL IS JIN x NAGI? There was enough tension(sexual) to make it happen! Third would be that the Fan Service is great! Watch the net for many people complaining again about it. Only difference is that it's all Jin doing this time.Hey! I don't mind.
Review later first this:
Special Fan service spoiler as proof the tension (sexual) was high enough and now Nagi naked body is etched in my mind! I want it out but can't. Damn ero. Pretty much all the fan service scenes are there and it seems they did it really daring.

This just in on the news that the net Typhoon of Nagi's naked scenes are in
http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2008/12/28/nude-nagi-kannagi-climax/

Now on to this final review of Kannagi! Before that happens I want to say that I will miss this series mainly for its comedy and parodies such as lucky star!

The episode starts with Nagi being at the Kamimori residence (I knew it that Nagi would be hiding there from episode #12) logically the husband/wife must have kept Nagi hidden (since she good at lying that might have been possible) but I think Nagi is there more to sooth the grand-mother before her passing away.

Ok everyone calm down about Jin's shoe throwing.I understand the position all are taking for Tsugumi but remember that Jin since that maid cafe incident has problems with temper and anger management. Usually he's quiet kid but the stress and other factors such as mental breakdown are quite the nasties when they accumulate. Jin was at his 3rd day of no Nagi so everyone just understand Jin went berserk and not because of anything else. The shoe throwing was just plain frustration!

Shino and Takako talk with Tsugumi about Nagi. The situation looks only to Jin as what is going on, the rest only seem to know that Nagi has not shown up much. Even on the internet people wonder where is she? Tsugumi is worried a lot about Jin and myself I am very angry that he is being selfish like that! He does not even consider Tsugumi's feelings at all! Moreover he is just at worst thinking he will bring her trouble and to her family trouble as well. That is lame thinking! Jin thinking like that must be a fool since Tsugumi is a childhood friend (I am assuming Jin thinks like that because he did so when it came to nutrition).

Like some people have said earlier on The scene after the one where Tsugumi worries about Jin in class and seeing Jin not having much energy to run since he must be sleeping bad this is partly Nagi's fault but Jin brought it upon himself this. The scene where Jin and Tsugumi are on swings.Is Tsugumi not amazing? She had such powerful psychological influence! She knew what to say to Jin and what to get out of him so that she can scold him again. That scolding woke up so much Jin that I myself was "How did she do it just like that?" question in head at that moment. It is very impressive how she handled Jin mentality!

Put it this way: Jin was in a "diving suit complex" where one isolates himself in mental state. Tsugumi was able to break that complex and also to motivate Jin! Pretty impressive it should be more Jin x Tsugumi instead of Nagi. Tsugumi can help Jin a lot in the future, especially as wife.When Jin was riding on his bicycle the flashbacks were very nice in reminding the viewer more of NAGI!

What followed made me cry! T_T It was shown so emotionally touching of Jin comforting Nagi even if Nagi said she lost her pride! Jin said he believes in her! I was so happy so see them back together despite all the crap and trouble Jin got cause of Nagi. So much at that scene in the grasslands near the water! Such a heart warming story it was from the lady to say when she fell into a hole with her baby that Nagi helped her from the pit! So nice of Nagi, more proof that she a good Goddess despite being a fake (I still think she might be a girl that hanged herself). The other part was sad because the old of Kamimura residence passed away. Anybody thinks Nagi helped her pass away like the cat? Weird, Nagi did not obsorb the old lady I do think Nagi helped her soul cross over to heavens. Jin holding Nagi's hand was Kawaii! Ichiban kawaii!

The phone messages had some very hilarious moments such as the messages Daitetsu left. Hahhahahha such a shy guy he is! Personally like I stated before the perverted scenes of Nagi just created a net Typhoon of Fan furry most likely for labeling Nagi as a slut that shows herself naked. Man I wonder WTH are they going to do in the DVDs to this part? They might add Nagi nipples in the DVD version, that would be O_O to me since I am learning how to handle this stuff anime wise. To me the naked scene was a spice to end the show.What made me angry, angry and angry is that Tsugumi saw all this and is so shocked! Tsugumi T_T Poor, poor her! Shattered heart by this scene.

This a wide message for viewers to watch for season 2 in order to find out what happens to Tsugumi. I want to know!

1.They better fix Jin x Tsugumi in season 2
2.Why not have had Jin x Nagi?

You don't see me type this too often, it is one of my favourite phrases. If you do see me type this anywhere, you'd know how awesome I find it to be:

Daitetsu is a legend. <--- He makes me laugh too much. XD





What part of it being 'sick' do you deem a guy being surprised at a girl suddenly walking around naked in a towel, dropping his glass full of water and saving the girl from deep cuts from the shards of glass when she tripped over his foot? It's a normal situation in Anime, especially the ecchi ones where they get into an accidental, suggestive position. In this case, they did.

Slayer545-sama, you seriously need to 'read' the atmosphere. Do you seriously think he would proceed to have sex, or rape, Nagi before he was interrupted? I'll give 3 reasons why not:


- Jin, at this moment, has only just realised his attraction to Nagi. He'd soon rather die of embarrassment than do what you suggested he was about to do.Yeah but does he know how to control himself? Many times I seen lose it.

- Jin's an idiot and a coward, but he knows what's right and what's wrong.Yeah ok I agreed but I never said he would rape or something, it just looked like that and if you refer to Zange song "It's ok to be beast because God will forgive you?" The song already said hints that Jin has a hidden beast within him. Most humans do.

- I want you to rewatch that scene again and see if there is any sexual feelings integrated in there. No, wait.. I didn't see any, nor will you; so don't try.Hahahha, good one. Sexual feelings no but tensions and the fact such situations it can happen, I would have to say yes.

Answer in bold.
BTW: I find it sick not the naked walking but the fact that Nagi acts like that as a Goddess. This is not the old age of Greeks.

Okay, I've held myself back because I am at work and didn't want to get worked up but let me talk to you about something slayer.

First off, if you're coming on here and start ragging on an anime please leave. We have no problems with you had an issue about the storyline or art or whatever. That's fine. We all have issues like like.

But never in my whole time here have I ever made the comparison of anime to God (I've had discussion about God but that's a different story). Why? Because this is fiction. It's not real. I don't worship any of these stories. Nobody here worships any of these stories or characters. The ideas of spirits and gods are part of Japanese culture. That's what makes is a rich culture one worth exploring.

So if you don't like the manga/anime because of the reference to god, then please leave. This is not the only manga/anime that had gone this route. Do you want a list of the others so you can ***** and complain?

Hey I ain't complaining just stating my opinion that's all. I am a Christian and this anime is slap in the face for worshipers. You go and see how religious authority will think about this. They will burn you or this anime. There is a reference to God and the other is they are making fun of it.Sure the anime is a comedy and all but this a discussion and so it's time Japan wakes to smell the fresh roses of it's not ok because you can draw it someone is controlling Japan and whether you like it or not something ain't right in all this.

Let me remind you something, Slayer. Nagi, and nearly every other person claiming to be 'God' in Anime (i.e. Spice and Wolf), is called a deity; not a God. Know the difference between the two? If not, look it up.

Haruhi? Lol. But yea i agree.... I think most anime characters, when they say there "God", There not referring too, the omnipotent, ultimate creator of the universe, (minus Haruhi.. <_<), They are, in more of a sense, a being with a supernatural power, or force to control things.

Essentially yes, they are beings of special abilities or powers. They don't have to have powers to wipe of existance or anything like that, deities exist because the people believe they will help their land grow more crops or help them in some other form.

Haruhi is more like the de-creator of the Universe. XD

Well at least deity should set a example. What kind of example sets eros anyways. My point the ecchi was done for the fans cause they were desperate for it.

Yes the fans were; your point? It wasn't totally absurd that it'll be somewhat disgusting to look at, it was fine.

Perhaps from a Christian point of view it may differ at the very least Zange was possessed so I understand that position. Nagi was not at the very least.

This might sound cheesy, stupid or worse; but not unwarranted:

She was possessed by her emotions, not making her think clearly. I mean, what else would encourage her to walk to her clothes naked in a bath towel.

Most likely irrational thinking. How else would you explain her not thinking about the fact Jin could see her naked like that? :confused:

Emotions again, she is less likely now to care about Jin seeing her naked than before.

[slayer545-sama]

Emotions again, she is less likely now to care about Jin seeing her naked than before.Yes, perhaps but she still has a title and that is just plain to assume it with such acts for the acts themselves aren't pure. :shock::shock:

[Strahan]

You said it yourself several times, you are Christian. You thus don't have much room to *****, being that Nagi is a Shinto kami. Don't harass others because someone else's religious ideas don't go in line with your own.

I'd also recommend you stay away from Kamisama Kazoku and Kamichu, heh.

And Ah! My Goddess. I'm also Christian also but my faith is strong enough that I know that these are fictional characters and the characters and culture of the animes don't shake my foundation....and I don't go around yelling at people because of it. The rule I always live by with ANY show is: if I don't like it or it's content, I don't watch it. Just watch the legalism slayer, it's not very becoming.

Anyways, what did everyone think of the last epi? Are you hoping for a second soon in the future? It took a year for the annoucement of the Spice & Wolf season 2 and 2+ years for Harahi's second second. To me, this will be one of the most anticipated shows I'll be waiting for.

[Opace]

I predicted it'll be 1 year before there's even enough material for a 2nd season. This time around, we get more Nagi being lovey-dovey?

I couldn't say since the tranlations of the mangas are only up to chapter 14. It's where Tsugumi talks to Zange about Jin and Zange says she'll go out with him.

[TuaRal]

Aww.. 1 year for more? Nagi is like..the best may I remind you...shes about as good as Horo from Spice and Wolf

[Jariaya-senpai]

Kannagi chapter 15 is now out. It starts off when Jin falls out the window trying to catch the impure butterfly. I'll have it up and combined into a file in a few minutes.

I hope we get some more Zange being lovey dovey to. She is so cute. I loved it when she beat them dude's up in the alley, show's she aint all looks.

Heck yes, I want to see some Zange lovey dovey too. :lol:
