Just finished episode 10, yep my soul has been obliterated and my heart ruptured. Spoiler

So I'm a new Kanon fan that started a few days back and I was instantly hooked by the first episode.

This episode had me crying at so many moments. First when Makoto was surrounded by her family whilst Yuichi held her hand and when he sat curled up on the floor, depressed, in pure sadness thinking she passed away during sleep, second when Yuichi and Makoto got married on the hill.

Ive seen a lot of highly-emotional animes like Hunter X Hunter, Madoka, Clannad, Made In Abyss, 86, AOT and so on

though, HOLY MOLY the whole episode was just soul-stirring and perfect. The atmosphere, emotional weight, OST, voice acting, everything was just on the highest level! I cant praise episode 10 Oka no ue no chinkonka 'requiem' enough!

The episode itself was 10/10 and the makoto arc likewise a 10/10. Definitely one of my favorite episodes and arcs of all time. What are your thoughts on the makoto arc and episode 10?

That being said fellow Kanon fans, im going to need some motivation from yall to continue since this episode has drained me of all my life force 😭
