Does anyone know if Kaorin-chan has a last name? According to this one doujin game, she does, but I'm not so sure. The pic is down below.
Kaorin-chan!

Well, I'm about to place up an update to my site soon. I'm even doing future tasks in advance! For now, here's my scenario.
As of late, I've been watching Hime-chan no Ribon. Besides that, I've been watchin Gundam Seed and Noir. I might try to watch Saikano and Kiddy Grade, if all things go well.
Sabo
Well, it's a shame you're not able to get what you want. Hey, isn't Haibane Renmei that one series about angels and there's that one character that looks like Lain?
Satoshi
*Nods*
Osaka hang with Seras? That I don't know. Anyway, I want to have an issue of Newtype!
Rid
Arigatou. Yeah, it is nice to have anime trends again. That's for sure.
Zepy
Now that you have mentioned it, there has been a lot of series out there. Of course, some aren't as hot as the ones in the past several months, but still.

quote:
Zepy, as a person who liked the anime Kanon but hasn't played the game, perhaps you can fill me in on what has been cut? I'm kinda of intrested in what would be missing...
Hmmm... this would be tough, the anime practically only covered 20% of the game... :P
I'll just describe the main events I guess...?
Spoilers, I think.
In Nayuki's story, Yuuichi starts to develop feelings for her, but soon after, something happens to Akiko and she gets hospitalised, with little hope for recovery. Nayuki gets very depressed and shuts herself up in her room. Later then, Yuuichi used Nayuki's alarm clock that she gave him, to pass a message to her, and made the promise that she made to him 7 years ago. So he waits for her at the bench... and he waits and waits, and she finally appears.
Soon later, Akiko miraculously recovers, and happy ending. The part with Nayuki's depression is fantastic though...
For Mai's story, its mostly accurate till the final parts. After Yuuichi stops her from fighting against her own powers, he starts telling her how she doesn't need to be strong any more, she can be more like a girl from then on. She realises that she can depend on him, and she thanks him for everything, then she stabs herself. Then you get to see all about her past, where she was born as a girl with supernatural powers and was treated as an outcast from her peers, her mother who was dying from an illness during her childhood, how she was alone. She was waiting for Yuuichi all the time in the wheat field, waiting for their first meeting, because her powers had told her that she had to. And they finally meet, and she finally gets a friend to play with. But then soon after, Yuuichi has to move, but she doesn't want him to go. So she lies to him that the field where they always play at is being attacked by demons, and he has to go with her to protect it, or it will be lost. Mai keeps insisting that it isn't a lie, and that Yuuichi has to stay with her. But Yuuichi couldn't stay, and still went away. After then, Mai continues to think, it wasn't a lie, it wasn't a lie... and soon her powers generated the demons, and she had been fighting with them ever since. The field was then soon bought and the school where they attended was built on those grounds. For 7 years, Mai no longer smiled, and fought those "demons" continously, all because of that one lie. Then back to the present, dying Mai, she starts playing that japanese word game with Yuuichi again, but this time, he cannot find his voice due to his crying. She continues it by herself, like a lullaby singing herself to sleep...
Though, months later, Mai is up and well again. But the main point is that it'd be unexpected, since the story really seemed to emphasize that she was going to die.
Sayuri also has her own story, about why she has to call guys with a -san at the end. Apparently it had to do with her little brother, who was born... errr... can't really remember this part now :P
Anyway, he ends up dying.
For Makoto's story, a while before her time came, Yuuichi slowly realised that she was losing her ability to function as a normal human being, slowly not being able to move properly, not able to do things properly, and soon enough not even able to talk properly. Yuuichi then remembers how in Makoto's favorite manga, there's this loving couple who gets married, and how she wanted to be like them. Yuuichi then brings her up to the hill and said he would marry her. They then had their own little wedding on the hill, but Makoto is getting so weak that Yuuichi can't tell if she even knows what is happening around her. Finally, she collapses, and slowly, she passes away, as Yuuichi pats her as he did when she was a fox...
Shiori, well, there was a huge build up of sadness as Yuuichi and Shiori get into a relationship, but they both know will soon pass away on her birthday. One of my favorite parts was on the eve of her birthday, she collapses, and says how she doesn't want to die... Then they say "Happy birthday, Shiori", "Goodbye, Yuuichi".
She still does make it through though, but still, such great sadness.
Ayu was more or less the same.
Zepy looks back on how he said he'll describe just the main events. Zepy looks at the huge amount he typed. Zepy looks at the time. ARGH!!!
I should feel lucky I didn't want to talk about the smaller stuff ;p

| "Aida Kaorin..." , posted Sat 30 Nov 16:51
Well, after some research, I found out that Kaorin has a last name and it is Aida.
A person plugged "‘Š“c ‚©‚¨‚è‚ñ ‚ ‚¸‚Ü‚ñ‚ª" into a search engine to get the details.
Kaorin-chan!
This page, the one you see up top, seems to list some reasons for it being Aida/Aita (when she is called in attendance being one of them, etc). They are giving manga pages so it could possibly have been revealed in the anime later as well. Well, it makes sense, if you think about it.
3 translated Azumanga yon ko ma strips
There are three strips. Look at the one that introduces Kurosawa-sensei. She calls out Aida. Thus, it has to be true that Kaorin's last name is Aida. (Oh, I go to their meetings by the way.)
Here's a site that I found as well.
