Kanokon: The Girl Who Cried Fox

Kanokon: The Girl Who Cried Fox

Introduction

Kouta has girl troubles of the supernatural sort. For some reason, he keeps attracting the attention (and affections) of animal spirits! Having spent most of his life in the country, Kouta is understandably nervous when he moves in with his grandma to attend a high school in the big city. He hoped to make a good impression, but having Chizuru, a beautiful fox spirit, hanging off his arm didn't seem to be the sort of image he wanted to have. She's not alone in her love for Kouta, either. Nozomu, a wolf spirit, as well as other youkai have their sights set on the hapless country boy.

This anime was so bad it actually cured my depression knowing I had no involvement in it's creation whatsoever, unfortunately it then put me into a deeper depression when I realised I was so bored I was willing to sit through this entire show. there isn't anything redeeming about this anime in any capacity accept for maybe getting drunk and laughing at how bad it is. There was no real substance to the show unless you like the heavy amounts of fanservice but a that point you might as well watcha hentai. At least with something like highschool dxd you can occasionally see a fight scene or something and yes that is how low I've sunk that this anime can allow me to praise highschool dxd. Overall there just isn't really anything positive to say about a show that was treat with less care tha…

Hey all, Robert's Too Late Reviews are rampaging across the internet once again! Today's pertinent information is that I'm discussing the dubbed version of this anime, and this includes the two episode OVAs. To get to the quick of things, this anime is just terrible. It needs to be taken out behind the barn and shot. If you could only skip one show, this one would be a very strong contender. I would burn down the RTLR wall before putting anyone from this anime on it. Let's begin this fox hunt. Story: 3 I make no bones about enjoying the ecchi or harem genre of shows. I watched Highschool DxD, Testament of Sister New Devil, Omamori Himari, and while I didn't find all them stellar, I have to say that they are all cream of the crop when compared to this series. This anime is nothing but walk…

I won't lie to you, I watched this primarily for the ecchi scenes and fanservice. So, did I get what I wanted? I read some people's comments and reviews about Kanokon being borderline hentai, with lots of nudity, so I was intrigued. Well... can't say I was satisfied. First, expect most of the ecchi harem stereotypes here. We have a main character who's pretty bland, and has two hot chicks throwing themselves at his feet. Does he react? No, of course not. He's constantly embarrassed by them shoving their boobs in his face. Additionally, the two chicks are yokais - one has fox powers, and the other one has wolf powers. There are also a few side characters, but most of them were forgettable. The only side characters I liked were the redhead twins. Some of the scenes with them reminded me o…

If Kanokon was real life, we'd live in a world of inverse sexual attraction. Meek little men that look like they'd lose in an armwrestle with a hamster would be getting all the attention from strong overconfident women. I shit you not, the "male lead" here squeals like a weasel and apologises to his deceased grandfather every time girls try to initiate sexual contact with him. I've never been so fucking rustled in my entire life. The plot... there isn't any. Just one weak boy that was probably manufactured with a flaccid dick and a horde of one dimensional nymphos. They force themselves on him, he starts looking like a rotten tomato and runs away screaming some shit about his grandfather and how immoral sexual activities are. Rinse and repeat - whole 12 episodes. I had to light up a join…

Gazz short review: Kanokon is so far the worst anime I recently watched. I commend you to avoid this if you can. Summary: +If you watch for the boobs, this will work I guess. -Worst MC you'll ever seen -Supporting cats are terrible. -Basically a waste of time reading the story because the story is a TRASH -Watch hentai instead of this. Overall, a total TRAIN WRECK.

Oh boy Ero King Kouta is one lucky dude, nothing like getting down with the furries or monster girls whichever, but you got to envy this guy a bit I mean how many small loli-type boys you see with bodacious or in this case boobdacious extremelly horny girl fox, yokai erm thing whatever.. This is the epotome of ecchiness! Maybe its not High School DxD ecchiness, but it is up there, and sometimes wonder why in the heck there isn't a h-scene I mean they've gotten pretty close to it multiple time (I'm only speaking about the anime of course, not including the manga just incase someone says "but there is sort of one"). Anyways going back let me get this review started! Story: 7 The story of a young country boy named Kouta who attends a city high school for the first time, who ends up meeting…

Today I'm going to be reviewing this anime because it absolutely has to be the worst series I've watched Story: There really isn't much story going on The only "story" I see is this big breasted fox deity trying to get with this pathetic male loli character I felt like I was watching a hentai Art: The art is just generic The skin was too shiny Sometimes it looked like the characters didn't have noses Sound: Sound was the only decent thing about this series The OP and ED were alright Character: No character development in this series Girls don't even act this gross in reality Chizuru: For someone that's supposedly 400 years old you would think she'd be more mature But she's just annoying and is just begging to get into this kid's pants I don't understand what she sees in him Kouta: H…

Between the 10 Freeway, Downtown Los Angeles traffic, and missing the first hour of a cyber security conference, what did I dislike the most of those eventful two days? That would be the anime show I was watching as I sat in the car. It took us roughly two hours to travel between Destination A and Destination B, both ways as the traffic wouldn't let up. Kanokon was the show that I was happening to watch; oddly enough, I was looking for an ecchi show as I waited. Its 12-episode length allowed me to finish the entire show within the span of the trips since it was a two-day conference, and it wasn't gridlock or 90-degree heat that made this show a horrible watch. I have determined that the show itself is the reason why this show is not a good show. Kanokon is your typical ecchi, your typical…

Oh god, When I first heard of this show, I thought that it would be different. Why did I even think it was going to be different? The characters are perverted, and act strangely odd. The story goes way to fast, bringing up more questions then answers. All the story is becomes a love triangle with a short little kid in the middle of it. This is pretty much Hentai without the sex. It’s messed up and would be much better if they just used the sex in order to have a more interesting story line. AND THERE IS NO ENDING! It gives us a ‘read the manga’ ending that always pisses me off. If I wanted to read the manga, I would of done so already or read it instead of watching the anime. Chizuru is a really interesting girl who is really hangs onto Kouta all the time. She is extremely pushy and keep…

Once, my friend came over and brought the first disc of this anime in a bag he always had with him. The cover entailed two topless women with tails sexually attacking what you could assume was the main character. The cover art was screaming "don't watch me." Regardless, I was curious, so I began watching it anyway just to see what it was about, why the cover was so risque, and to see exactly how terrible it was. This is probably the third worst anime I've ever seen, the second being the Chrono Trigger OVA and the first being Mars of Destruction. Anybody who gives this a higher score than a seven has serious mental issues. My friend gave it an eight. I'm going to start with the most painful aspect of this trash: The storyline. Story:4 I don't even think they were trying. They probably ass…

B is for bouncing O is for "out there" O is for outlandish B is for bosoms S is for "seriously?" Boobs. Bothered yet? Boobies, melons, bosoms, fun-bags, playthings, tits, breasts. Still not bothered? Well, you have passed the "Kanokon" test, my friend. Welcome to a magical anime, filled with boobs, boobs, and, yet, more boobs. The way the story begins sets the tone for the rest of the story. Not in the way that they continue to develop it, more like they let you know that it's there, basically causing all the drama in the series, but let "mini-arcs", spanning an episode or two, act as the story for the show. As you could imagine - it's predictable. And, oddly enough, it was a nice predictable. I was never, EVER, bored watching "Kanokon" and I don't think you should be either. Unless you…

Hello boys and girls, I've looked through several "so-so" and "outright trash" kind of reviews and I feel it's necessary to say a word in defense of Kanokon. Because I think that it's a masterpiece in it's niche. Ok, everybody open your eyes now. It's E C C H I (full stop). The essense of it. And all the rest just doesn't matter. No main male character - don't care (actually he is, but Kouta is as good as no main character). No plot - it's irrelevant. If you complain that Kanokon is missing some (or all) of those element - you are right. But don't forget that ecchi (as any other genre) rarely walks alone. You might have grown used to ecchi + romance or something else. And Kanokon is just ecchi that conquers all. Kanokon is walking on the very thin ledge: between ecchi and hentai (yep, 18…

Alright. This is going to be my first review here on MAL, but I figured I would get off to a good start. However, I'm rating Kanokon first, so I hope my review doesn't sound too cynical. Here goes. There's really -no- story to this anime. The only thing I managed to get out of it was a bit of arousal. But I suppose that's why they call it ecchi. It's borderline hentai, in my opinion. I think I saw up Chizuru's skirt over one hundred times. But seriously. It was really pushed to the limit to the point where it wasn't even entertaining when it happened. The flashing was just too common. Fanservice is nice, but there's a point where enough is enough. This is definitely NOT a family anime. Hide this. Far away. Out of sight. The main character, Kouta, looks like he's in preschool. Yeah. I sai…

I really feel like I need a shower and a delousing after watching this show. Kanokon manages to be one of the most perverted and in many ways disturbing things I have ever watched. It’s fortunate that it was short, because I doubt that I could have finished it had it been any longer. Kanokon basically doesn’t have a story. A weak an uninteresting boy starts his year at a new high school where he is inexplicably besieged by hot girls. Standard echii anime fare here. The problem is nothing interesting ever happens. Kouta tries to avoid the affections of all the girls throwing themselves at him and the girls just keep trying, getting more and more outrageous as the series unfolds. There is some comedy to be found though. Kanokon does have its moments, if you can suspend your disbelief over K…

Before I begin, I'd like to say something for the record. I have no idea what you want from me when you ask me to rank a show's "sound". If I can hear it, that's fine by me, and a show's audio would have to be truely horrid for me to say anything against it. Now, on to Kanokon. First off, the sound is utterly fantastic ; P Seriously though, apart from having a nice rhythmic title, there's little to say for this show other than the obvious. The character designs are attractive (aesthetically as well as... well, you know), and it's just as well that the overall animation is shiny and crisp. The animators do love them some still shots, though, as the viewer takes a trip down memory lain to the sights of immobile children, forever on their way to school. And if you think the male protagonist…

Now, I read a bit of the manga before watching it, was alright. Then, I saw advertisments for the anime in magazines, and damn, it caught my eye. So when the subs came out, I downloaded them every week, watched them, and this is what I thought about it. Story: There wasn't really much of a story, as this anime was quite the slice-of-life anime. Every episode was basically Chizuru and Nozomu trying to seduce and get into the pants of the main character, Kouta. There was a fair bit of comedy, but not gut-bustingly funny. Drama around the last few episodes were very meh, it didn't really have much effect. Every episode, I'll admit, was repetitive, but the action definitely made up for it, as I will explain below. Art: Oh damn, out of all the ecchi animes I've watch, this one has the best ar…

Omg, this has got to be the worst anime I have ever had the misfortune to stubbornly watch all the way through .___.; I finished it when the last episode was subbed, but I've only just thought about writing a review. Also I'm tired today, so please bear with me guys ;3 Story Story? HAH. There pretty much is no story. Kanokon's story is none existant. It's just about how the overly-horny-for-a-little-shouta-boy Chizuru trys to get Kouta, the boy, to have sex with her. Right at the beginning there was certain potential involving the fight scenes and the concept of Chizuru being a fox deity, but nothing was ever played out into anything deeper than "oh look, she has a tail every now and then." Seriously, the writers seemed to completely forget about the supposed main story line and just had…

First of all, hide this anime from anyone you live with. Unless they like hentai too. Yes indeed, this is THE closest thing to hentai you will probably ever see in an anime. It's nuts. But what's underneath all the fanservice, you ask? Well, a mediocre storyline, I'm sorry to say. This anime focuses all it's energy on the fanserivce (like the manga does, so no surprise there). Let's jump right in. STORY: 6/10 It's really not that inventive; the whole story feels like a setup so that Kouta can get into ecchi situations. Two spirit girls start liking him, a bunch of random crap happens. No real movement of the story, but what can you expect... ART: 6/10 The whole anime I was extremely annoyed at how young Kouta looks. That's like 10 years old, man! OH well... besides that, the eye style…

Holy crap, it's finally over! The anime of my dreadful loathing! This anime was just so bad, I HAD to write a review on it. Kanokon was obviously made with horny sex craving boys as its audience. You want fanservice? It has fanservice. You want naked chicks? This anime has it. In fact, this anime goes over-the-top borderline with its sexual innuendos, activities and visual eye candy. The main character, Kouta, is stalked by two girls, both being what men usually crave. The ready-and-willing big-breasted pretty girl, and the ready-and-willing breast-less loli character. Both want sex from him, and will do anything to do it. To sum it up, this anime is probably the closest you'll get to a hentai without it actually being a hentai. Story The story was mediocre, at best. I loved the whole…

Kanokon never gave me a boring moment to think about why I am watching this. First off, this is a "love it, or hate it" anime. Those who can withstand the ecchiness will love it, else they'll find it very annoying or to some extend even disgusting (repulsive is the word I am getting at...). It is plainly obvious that the anime is targeting the MALE audience. Yes girls, this anime is NOT FOR YOU! With that in mind, we'll proceed with the review. This is perhaps THE closest anime to hentai you can ever find (well, lets just say it is at least on par to the well know fan service friendly Ikkitousen series). The ecchiness of Kanokon is beyond imagination! Though the rating states "Mild Nudity", I think it is more appropriate for it to say "Heavy Nudity" (especially after watching episode 7).…
