    The snowy days of the past and the present continue to merge together:

    Episode 2 xvid - SS-Eclipse
    Episode 2 h264 - SS-Eclipse

    Edit: A very nice episode. I don't know why this series works so well and if it requires predisposition and not minding the slightly odder than normal female character design, but it just works. And of course the fact the dude is so similar to Kyon (like I stated already earlier) makes it consistently better.

    Currently downloading the 2nd episode by Eclipse.

    I liked the detail they put ont the series.

    Like Nayuki's mom using hot water to un-freeze the lock.

    Definitely better than Air.

    This series has been really well done. I didn't find the first season interesting (heck, I even stopped about halfway through), but this remake is just excellent. I can only hope that it'll stay like this for the rest of the series.

    Also, did anyone else notice that Kyoto is sticking in some Haruhi Suzumiya references in these Kanon episodes?

    In episode 2:
    - Yuichi's introduction was considered normal, but he said that if there were any introductions that were not normal, he would like to see it. Obviously, this can be seen as a reference to Suzumiya's introduction
    - When Yuichi was found by Kaori, he said that he suddenly saw Kaori there. Kaori responds by asking why he is narrating. This is a reference to Kyon's speeches when it was undetermined if he was speaking out loud or to himself
    - While Kaori was leading Yuichi out of the school, she thought that he was a spy from a secret organization, but he claims that he's an ordinary transfer student. This can be a reference to Itsuki.

    Episode 3:
    - When Mai said that she was going home, Sayuri said that she was going to the library. Mai then decides to follow Sayuri. This can be a reference to Nagato's liking to the library since Nagato and Mai's voices sound very similar (and probably their characteristics).

    That last one is a huge stretch. Mai is voiced by Yukari Tamura, and Yuki from Haruhi was voiced by Minori Chihara. Personally, I don't think they sound at all alike, even considering they're both playing emotionless characters. Yukari Tamura's voice is pretty distinctive. Sayuri was the one who wanted to go to the library. It's more likely that Mai just tags along wherever Sayuri goes. I suspect we'll see a reason why Mai stays at school. I mean, she's in the hallway at night with a sword at the end of eps 3 for a reason, right?

    The eps 2 ones are correct, but the last one is totally off base.

    You can get it off Eclipse or SS IRC channel, the second option is to download the a.f.k. version and maybe third is just wait for them to fix the torrents.

    Haha, I admit that the last one is VERY vague ^^

    With 24 episodes, the spring is still far away, and snow shall it be for the time being:

    Episode 4 h264 - SS-Eclipse
    Episode 4 xvid - SS-Eclipse

    Edit: 24 episodes, not 26 like I first wrote...
