One of the la^fie^t gatherings in the history of the Ea-Jt Rroad Street Tem¬ ple tfiok place last Tuesday evening, March lOtli, when Aaron' Sapiro, the famous Jfwi.'»h lawyer ami publicist, de¬ livered a lung and elorpicnt address on "My l-:xperience With American Jus¬ tice."

Sapiro is the doughty ".Son ' of fsraei" who tokl Henry Ford where to get oft and is the man largely rc.=ipousiblc fi>r thc cessation of hostilities between the fanious velocipede manufacturer of De¬ troit and the Jewish people. His address Tuesday evening was a masterpiece in' every respect, giving as it <lid a detailed account of all thc incidents v;hich led to the much-heralded Ford-Sapiro libel suit several years ago. It can he frankly asserted concerning Sapiro that he came, he saw, he conquered. In fact, he took this whole town by storm.

In this series of articles, pub¬ lished under thc genera! heading "The International Jew," Henry Ford con¬ demned the influence of Jews on various buMiiesB and industrial enterprises as well as on the theatre aud moving picture in¬ dustry. The Ford hirelings expressed alarm at thc constantly increasing Jewish population of thc United States and their remarkable development a<i powers on Wall Slrcct and T.aS.-illc Street. They even intim.Ued that J*'\vihh Kvukri had established a dictator.ship in thi^ eountr, and through Louis Marshall, president of the American Jewish Comniittee, at- tepipted to dictate to thc President of tlie United States, to the cabinet, and to tlie United .States Congress.

Hi Ladies.
Going through some threads about solids and first foods. Just looking for a little insight from you experienced Mamas! ( I remember a few certain threads Mommal and Djs mom and others had great details on how they progressed with solids?)
We did a very relaxed approached to starting solids around 6 months-ish... mostly BLS/ BLW but I do give him some in a mesh feeder at times and I will let him play with a spoon and bowl for fun, sometimes a little food on the spoon, just kinda a little of both. He's not really eating much of anything unless I really "feed" him myself, which I really don't want to do anyway Also I had been given him frozen popsicle homeade food that we didnt finish, like the rest of an avocado, banana, smashed up peas, etc. When I put smashed up food or a whole piece of fruit on his tray in front of him, he is somewhat interested and plays a bit with it, but just isn't really acting so 'hungry' for food, IYKWIM.
I'm wondering, does he need to be eating more or do I need to be doing something different? He's 8 months old. No bottles. Plays with a sippy but not really drinking.
Another little thing: the LO is on amoxicillin for the 1st time for an ear infection. His Pediatrician ( who is awesome) mentioned giving him his meds in Yogurt for better acceptance. I was like..HMMM?>??? what dairy"?? She just looked puzzled at me and we moved on... She is usually right on and very bf supportive. Did she just forget or is it generally acceptable now to introduce dairy 'products' before 1 year?
Thanks Ladies! ust looking for fresh reminders and Happy New Year

Lost in my dreams...

Which i would agree to certain extent. The turbo boosted Ayu-Yuuichi romance after Shiori's arc is one of my main gripes. It felt like coming mostly from the left field with no proper buildup. Up until that moment their interactions didn't seem romantic at any level.
Sure, they spent time together bla bla bla... but it didn't strike me even remotely as romantic or romance oriented. Good buddies, yes... romantic interest - no. I would have felt much more comfortable with Mai or Shiori romance aspect getting explored - they both had events that would be a much better foundation for blossoming romance. (Especially Shiori)
Now, while the Ayu buildup might be half decent on its own, unfortunately we have two others standing beside it - Shiori and Mai. And it falls flat on romance potential buildup when compared to those two. I have nothing against Ayu romance - just make it so that his choice seems believable on the font of what is already presented.
It felt like: "Ok, guys. Ayu has to disappear in 2 eps, but we need to have Yuuichi in love with her by that time, so - kick the engine in to overdrive and have that thing rolling. *snaps fingers* - Yuuichi x Ayu in progress.
Up to that point they had 3 buildups for a relationship (Not counting Nayuki, because she barely registers on Yuuichi's radar at this point) , and they chose to go with the weakest one, which was Ayu.
In this aspect i agree - the romance part is the weakest link of the series.

I do agree that romance is rather weak but, can you truly say that you weren't expecting it? I mean the ending and opening scenes is full of Ayu, that within itself is a dead giveaway. Also, the guy dreams about Ayu nearly every day. Its not unbelieveable for romance to occur at the spur of the moment, it happens in real life. It was shown that Yuuichi was in love with Ayu from childhood but he blocked it all out from trauma, but I think the feelings were still there, but just "hibernating". Ack, I haven't typed much, but I don't wanna write anymore, lol.

Maybe my biases are getting in the way of seeing this objectively, but I still think the Yuuichi - Ayu romance was handled commendably, and given a decent build up in the episodes leading up to it. But, I still argue the most important scene in regards to their romance was the one in which they first came together in episode 19... it was a time in which they were both emotionally vulnerable and it just seemed to make sense to me at that stage that in that moment they would reach out to each other romantically and for support.

Nuts, can't cookie Zaris yet.
Some nice points, especially about the handling of the pace towards the end, but there are some points that I do not agree with. Mainly with regards to Makoto.

I'm going to do what I did in the Haruhi Suzumiya thread: I'm going to average my votes for each episode towards my overall vote.
As to Yuuichi and Ayu: Wasn't Ayu in charge of this relationship? Thinking on that, I got the feeling that Yuuichi was following her lead while he was in charge of the others (for good or bad).

There are quite a few things I would diagree with you about, Zaris, in that review, but I'll leave it to it as your own opinion. Tho, I do whole heartly agreed about "The Unrequited Paradox" section, specially regarding to Ayu's ending; that being illogical. There are some other nice points, but some points you seem to not be informed about when you watched the series, which leaved you a bit of dismay. However, since that's your understanding from watching Kanon, and like I said, I'll leave it to as your own opinion and won't go into an agruement about it.

Yes. Some very nice points indeed, Zaris. If I could, I would cookie for sure.
Although I do not agree on some points, you explained your reasoning very well and I can understand where you're coming from. However, I do agree with you on a good number of points.

Very well done critique, Zaris. Although there's quite a few points on that I don't agree with, I simply cannot deny the effort you have so obviously put into that. As it is, made for excellent reading.
Here, have a cookie.

And I mean you're also showing this to the public. You want it to appeal to as many people as possible so they tune in and investors will perhaps support future endeavors from that company.
Fans are important too since they play a part in spreading the word on how great the plot is or how lifelike the characters are. But what some of them are unaware of is that in TV or in a film, drama takes precedence. Sometimes you have to sacrifice accuracy for the sake of making a scene dynamic or powerful, otherwise you end up having the majority bored or falling asleep at their seats.
I initially viewed Kanon from an outsider's point of view. I knew nothing about it. The only thing I had going for me was the fact that this was recommended to me for its successful past, and that it was a harem, a drama, and dealt around love - past and present (so Anime News Network classified it). Without knowing how things would turn out, I focused mainly on how well it would enrage me, please me, shock or make me tearful-eyed. Being able to elicit emotion is the kind of thing that entertains me. Television is entertainment. But you know, people are amused for different reasons so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.
But understand that my screenwriting ethos is identical to that of Nicholas Meyer, "My job is not to weep; my job is to make other people weep." That's the point of view I'm coming from.
And you know, maybe everyone's right, that I probably took some important plot points and viewed them incorrectly. Most likely regarding Makoto. I don't mind a debate; this is a forum. We're here to talk and get facts straight.
And Skyfall is on the ball with me. I'm not saying an Ayu ending is inappropriate. I'm saying it could've used more justification, more spicing up, more drama to sufficiently suspend my disbelief on the matter. From the path Kanon was charting, Nayuki was the most appropriate choice. But episode 24 threw a mean curve ball that was difficult to follow. Any of the girls - Ayu, Shiori, Mai, even Makoto - could've been Yuuichi's #1 prospective mate (I exaggerate lol). But me and Skyfall agree that if it was gonna go that way, it needed to be more convincing.
But everybody's definition and perspective on love is different, eh?

I felt your argumentation was weakened by the way you couched some pretty arbitrary personal preferences and opinions (characters you liked/didn't like, ways you interpreted events, endings you would have preferred, etc.) in a shell of "I'm a screenwriter and filmmaker, so I know better". Maybe you didn't actually intend it to come across that way. Of course it's perfectly fine to mention things you would have liked to see done differently, but be careful not to couch it in an air of presumed authority or de-facto objectivity -- unless your arguments are in fact authoritative and/or objective.
Asianknight82 joked that "So basically, if we had gotten a Nayuki ending, it would've been a 10 right?" In fact, I felt it was pretty astute of him to see through the argumentation like that. Many of your arguments came down to "I didn't like this character", or "I thought this character deserved more attention", or "I was looking at this as a romance show", and so on, but they didn't really prove why others should feel the same way. You then built a case around how the fact that the show didn't match your personal preferences suggested flaws in the storytelling -- supported by "I'm a filmmaker/screenwriter". Because you didn't make a compelling argument (though it was certainly well-written), most of the replies you received were "I agreed with some parts, and disagreed with others".
Which brings me back to the original point -- what was the purpose and goal of the write-up? Maybe you were just trying to express your opinions and be as eloquent as possible in the process. In that sense, I would share the opinion most frequently stated: nice writing, I agree with some parts, and disagree with others. But if your goal was either to learn more through subsequent discussion, to convince others of your opinion, or to provide an objective overview of the show's strengths and weaknesses, then I wonder if a different tact might have better-served the purpose. As always, that was just my own personal impression.
For what it's worth, my purpose in posting this was so that hopefully we can learn from each other, and that others on the board can learn too. In the end, I think we can get a more insightful view of Kanon too. But the success of that is equally up for debate and discussion.

No problem, relentlessflame. I know it's all good intentions and everything. Part of what I wanted to do by writing my review was to provide not just a score, but to justify the numbers I gave. I cited my sources and I gave examples. But the other thing that I felt was important was to give people a sense of how I came to my conclusions, and I thought that discussing myself would help that out a little.
The people who have posted their comments on this forum come from different backgrounds. Some are anime enthusiasts and I don't know how they judge. I can't speak on behalf of them nor can I speak on behalf of the fans who know Kanon better than I do. The only point of view I can really give is mine, someone who received a B.A. in filmmaking last June and is in the process of becoming a freelance writer. I was taught to view and criticize things in a particular way, record and edit with respect to particular rules. But I'm not saying things have to be done my way because I know what's best... because chances are I don't! There are other opinions and methods out there that make perfect sense. And ultimately, anime and film are two different things. Perhaps I tried to hard to make them seem alike. If I have appeared authoritative or condescending, it's only because I wanted to share with this community a couple things that I learned in school that could also apply here.
I wanted to be impartial when I wrote my column, but at the same time, I also wanted to state my personal opinion on how I thought Kanon could have been made better too. Like Meophist said, we are still writing our personal take on the series. But I guess I took advantage of my position which clouded my objectivity. In the end, I suppose I was just curious if others felt the same joy and frustration as I did when particular events unfolded. That by describing the changes I wished for in detail, it would culminate into some sort of group response such as "I agree with you" or "I disagree". I'm happy that a lot of people concur with my suggestions, but I can't help but feel a little selfish and guilty now.
You asked me what was the write-up's purpose? Half of it was to see if others could relate to what I was thinking; half of it is simply the ramblings of a fool who couldn't get the ending he wanted. I won't joke; Asianknight82 read my mind. I wanted a Nayuki ending very badly because I liked her more. I suppose I let my frustrations carry my discussions forward that, upon rereading my write-up again, is more about what I would have liked to see done than honest-to-god objectivity.
Everything in my review was intended to be just an opinion. If I have sounded like a bigot or have been insulting in that or subsequent posts in this thread, then I apologize right here and right now.

And please for the love of god folks, don't take this as a thread jack or whatever it is everybody calls a comment these days, I'm just stepping in to give a response to something relating to how I view a character overall and not liking Yuuchi's voice had a huge impact on my overall enjoyment of the show so far. I virtually guarantee were it not for him (Sugita) this show would be getting a solid 8 or a 9 from me since depending on my tilt (more likely 8 for various reasons I don't feel like talking about) as voice acting would be a perfect 5 and his character interactions wouldn't be as annoying giving my character element a 4/5 meaning 5, 5, 3, 4 for Animation, Audio, Plot and Character, 17/20= 8.5.
Anyway back to the matter at hand, I understand he's popular to all but a few (Both Yuuchi and Tomakazu), and that criticism in the face of an overwhelming majority can be seen as insanity and poor judgement, but just take this one nitpick at face value (and I do have my reasons), for once, without getting defensive or taking it out of context or anything. Everybody feel free to disagree on their own grounds, absolutely of course, as is the god given right of any free human being, but don't go saying I'm wrong for this and this and this reason on something so subjective, because it won't help matters at all. Thank You ahead of time. Ah,just one small question while I remember, who are all those people who voted in this thread? Half maybe more of these names I've never even seen before on these boards even once. That's it. *Praying for once I won't be mistaken for an asshole*.

The nice thing about Kanon is that all five girls have their real merits, and it is relatively easy to sympathise with the other girls. So even if your premium choice is not the chosen one, the others can still see where you are coming from.
For example, if it were up to me (and many fanboys wheeze in relief that it was not), Ayu, Makoto and Shiori would be dead. Nayuki's issues will get resolved but she will remain as a friend (not lover), while Mai ends up being the romantic interest. Note that this is merely the bare-bones summarised version (and thus seems rather extreme at first). You can read more about my thoughts in the "Spoilers Thread" if you want to.
The interactions between Yuuichi and the five girls (six if you count Sayuri, but hey, what do you know? They left out her problem in this adaptation ) are amongst the highlights of the story in general, and lends a lot of weight to the idea that any one of them can develop a real romantic relationship with him.
These girls are not falling head over heels over Yuuichi for superficial reasons. An important point lost on many anime (or most shows in general, not just anime) that attempts to explain why a girl ends up liking a guy (note that I am only referring to anime where the romance is a serious theme and not a comedic one like Love Hina).
So yeah... I have no beef with other people who support the other pairings in Kanon.
Oh look... I think I just lost a couple hundred words from my write-up to this post. I just made it that much shorter.

I chose a different approach for this Kanon 2006 review, so instead of mentioning all the ups and down in a unique circle, I preferred to go through a quick journey throughout the whole series. It made it a lot easier even for me, to make my final assesments. I hereby decided to travel through the arcs, and so my analysis is divided between the various parts, delivering there praises and criticisms. All the following contents, naturally, are in my humble opinion.
As all of you already know, on 2002, Toei made the first attempt in animating Kanon. I watched that anime (3-4 years ago), without prior knowing what "Kanon" was, yes at that time it was famous already but I didn't know what it was about.
The Toei version left me quite cold. Not that it was a bad anime, on the contrary it had a lot of powerful scenes, but the fault probably was that those scene seemed pasted one after another, and at the end, too many questions raised and remained unsolved.
That's why, when Kyoto Animation announced its Kanon's remake, I wasn't particularly excited. Nor the fact that Suzumiya Haruhi aired in the middle raised my interest. Kanon was a remake of an anime I probably wouldn't have ranked even in my top 50.
Kanon 2006 started airing, and my approach was still cold. "A chance, just because it's KyoAni", I said myself.
With the first few episodes, my enthuxiasm certainly didn't increase. What I could immediately see, was how better the character were drawn in regard of the 2002 version. I simply loved Nayuki's new look, Yuuichi looked more mature than his "ancestor" (this will be very important for the story) and the same feeling of being better went for the other characters, from Ayu to Kaori, from Mai to Shiori.
At a point, Makoto was introducted. Quite a funny burden in her first appearences to say the truth, but another new thing of this Kanon was the presence of the comedy. I have to say, a brilliant yet very humorous comedy. Delivering a fantastic episode 6, with some of the most entertaining scenes of the whole autumn anime season ("The variations of the uguu"). It was an anticipation that Kanon 2006 had ended its gestuation phase and it was definitely started.
From now on, I'll dismiss my 2002's watcher clothes (it was just to state what my point of view was) and I'll talk about 2006 only, without comparisons.
And so, one of the girls suddenly began to be under the spotlights.
"Love is something eternal ... The aspect may change but not the essence." (Vincent Van Gogh)
Makoto's arc aka the most emotional of KyoAni's Kanon. It feels like a lot of efforts were put here, for a 4 episodes long run. Some might say that they were too much, but I don't particularly agree on the matter. The pace was just fine.
The girl being a fox spirit was hinted slowly but quite well, and the whole process of her "illness" was dealt in the right way. Being a lover of animals, I got really commoted by the whole part of the flashback when they showed Makoto's true nature, and all that followed. An unbelievably powerful closure episode for this arc gave to most of the attendance teary eyes.
But at the same time it probably sown false expectations about the future of the series. Makoto's story was sad and depressing, but also tragic, even if withouth catharsis.
Great job from Makoto's voice actress, Iizuka Mayumi. Her "auu" won't be forgotten anytime soon.
The animation was on really high levels for the most of the time, the plot development got a bit arrested instead, since basically Yuuichi did spend time only with Makoto and/or Mishio.
A good point though, was raised with the underline of the concept of "family", near the end of Makoto's vital power.
"Promise me you'll never forget me, because if I thought you would, I'd never leave." (Winnie the Pooh)
After a superb "intermezzo" episode, the focus moved on the mysterious girl, Mai. Which is in my opinion, the arc with better single animations of the whole series (meaning particular outstandingly animated scenes. Some others were a bit less on the top).
With a particular glance at the dance sequence, truly and simply spectacular. The shadows of the story got unveiled little by little and another tragic ending seems to approach before our protagonist is able to avoid it (honestly, I think that scene in particular could have been executed a bit better, since we don't even have time to realize that Mai has attempted sucide, that Yuuici has already "saved" her). That's a point for the theory that KyoAni's Kanon is not first-time watchers friendly.
If compared to Makoto's arc this one is much different for many reasons. First (and this will count for all the other upcoming stories) there has been much time to get a character and his/her indepths inside us, second: not only Mai's story is brought ahead – excepting – the very end, but also that of the other girls. Third and most important, this arc hasn't one protagonist but two.
"Good night, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest" (William Shakespeare)
Here it is, the one who probably is the most dramatic heroine of the story. The scene when she was assaulted by a demon made my heart skip a bit. Though, what really steals the spotlight, it's when Sayuri tells about her past and her background story about the poor Kazuya.
KyoAni dedicated a good amount of time to it, with amazing results. It's useless to exaggerate with superlatives, but that part was probably , along with the Makoto ending, the most sad of the series. I kept wondering why her laugh ("ahaha") was so dry, and the explanation made me shiver.
Said of the animations, this arc was slightly better than Makoto's in convenient regard of the whole story. One of the best scenes is the one where Mai lets go out her rage and destroys all of the surroundings with her sword, very impactful. The whole flashbacks puzzle worked well too.
I'm not totally fond of the ending here, a bit abrupt (as the pacing of Mai's past story. It seemed all too much standalone, like: "ok, this is the way this went, so what?". I've to put a small minus for this part.)
Thanks to Tamura Yukari, one of the most versatile seiyuus we have, for Mai, and to Kawakami Tomoko for voicing all the pains of such an unfortunate character as Sayuri.
After having conveniently set Mai's healing power out (an acceptable idea executed with questionable manner. Too direct), it's time for the story to move ahead.
"In the end, it doesn't matter how many breaths you take, but how many moments took your breath away." (Anonymous)
Despite Shiori being my favourite Kanon 2006's character, this is not my favourite arc. I feel to say it is the one arc with the best animations on the whole (from the beginning to the end). As far as I'm concerned, I doubt I have ever seen something that good as the river animation on the beginning of episode 17, that sequence alone seemed to be screaming "Hey! This is art!" from every point of view.
While this arc could seem totally Shiori-centered, that is not true, as we have a key bond.
"The only thing grief has taught me is to know how shallow it is." (Ralph Emerson)
In all honesty, I don't share the reasonings who brought Kaori to alienate her sister, but I can understand what her feelings might have been.
Back to Shiori, she's wonderful. Beautiful and classy, with some unforgettable quotes ("I don't like people who say such things!") and a flawless, admirable behaviour. I mean, she's facing death everyday. Yuuichi is particular good here in enlighten Shiori's weights, and the birthday party is a colorful feast for the eyes. It's good to see Kaori redeeming too.
A major flaw of this arc though, it's the ending, which is abrupt and cruel at the same time. Also, a 3 episodes span didn't seem allright to me. I'd given at least one episode more, so to have care of making spend to the two a bit more time together and to give a less rushed cut to the story.
If the writers thought that for Shiori's arc 3 episodes would suffice, I think they were wrong. I think this objectively, as Shiori is the girl who has had less time among the main protagonists (bringing her back in episode 24 won't make up for this).
Kudos here go to Satou Akemi (Shiori) and Kawasumi Ayako (Kaori).
As for the remaining girls in this part of the story, it's to note down a certain reaction of Ayu to a "simple" cold of Akiko. As for Nayuki, well, whichever of her long sad expressions tells long about her feelings.
When thinking to Kanon, and to these characters, it's difficult to separate them. I consider this arc as one and unique, I'd say going from episode 19 to 23. (with episode 24 being sort of a "standalone", a wrap-up of all events).
Along with the last episode, the 19th must have been the most discussed one. After a seemingly normal encounter near the end of the episode... suddenly something epic occurs.
It's to say that yes, the kiss between Ayu and Yuuichi felt rushed and coming out of nowhere. Another point for the unfriendliness of Kanon 2006. I for one, felt that a bit unexpected.
In defence of the show, I can say that the number of hints placed previously is countless, through flashbacks and everyday happenings. Certainly, nothing really romantic seemed to be popping out.
I can understand from when the kiss came from, but again, something seemed to be missing, because half of the episode was dedicated to Nayuki, and only the last part to Ayu.
Standing ovation, however, for the kiss scene execution, the camera movements, the clody sky at the sunset, the details. It makes for an unforgettable moment.
The following narration, up to dramatic Ayu's farewell, is very well built, and quite redeeming for the previous "flaw". The final revelation has yet to come, but the climax brought to the screen has a big impact already.
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." (Dr.Seuss)
If they ask me, "who's your favourite Kanon character?" probably I'm going to say Shiori. But if they change the question to "who's the one you admire the most" my answer would be different.
Nayuki suffered the pains of an unrequited love for years. She always kept a determined temper and tried to show no weakness. In the second part of the show, she has really become a silently shining star to my eyes (I have to say that Mariko Kouda as her seiyuu has a consistent part in this bunch of merits, and she would win an ideal "best Kanon seiyuu" prize from me, if there was one). Now it's time for her story to reach the peak.
The trigger is a tragic event that I deem as a badly executed scene by KyoAni's part. I have already explained this in long terms in the episode 21 discussion thread, but in two, I didn't like the accident's depiction, since I have preferred more subtleness.
At this point, Nayuki's strenght collapses. If there's a pillar in her life, outside Yuuichi, it's her mother. Withouth Akiko, Nayuki's world would probably mean nearly nothing.
The anime portrayed this situation just perfectly, in a depressing yet unstoppable run of events with a common key: pain and sorrow.
Yuuichi himself is lost because other than Ayu (and partially Nayuki) there's something other missing: a part of his memory. When he realizes, there's the most noticeable interpretation of Sugita Tomokazu for the character: in episode 22, when Yuuichi remembers what really happened to Ayu, the "uh!" he breathlessly shouts while quickly waking up is worthy one million praises.
It was a nice touch by KyoAni to put the real Sawatari Makoto, and the ending of episode 23 is also heartwarming, great work of the flashbacks and finally Yuuichi and Nayuki can reunite, in another epically animated and rendered scene.
Basically all the pieces of puzzle are together now, a small percentage is left with just one episode to go. The longer awaited Kanon finale will also become the longer discussed, since certainly the key of lecture provided was... surprising ?
"When the world says, << Give up >> , Hope whispers: << Try it one more time >> " (Unknown)
A direct approach is chosen to show the solution of the problems: skip and show them all resolved.
It was hazarded, yes. But I for one, liked it. Because it wasn't easy to put together all of the pieces for Kanon, but it was done well and withouth blatant plotholes. Somehow, they managed to untie all the bonds and answer to all the questions. It wasn't easy, in an episode time.
Remarkable things: Shiori outburst (finally, poor thing), Mai helpfulness and Nayuki's strenght through resignation. The continuosly hinted "miracle (kiseki)" was the only explanation one could provide, and it worked. If I put myself on that point of view, I can accept everything, even Shiori's healing.
Qualm: not showing Ayu's awakening from coma was not nice. It would have been a magnific anime moment.
The sequence when Ayu walks through the seasons is simply delightful, and feels like KyoAni put there its last effort in terms of great animation quality. Horie Yui's voice then, here, always and forever, sublime.
Finally, goose pimples for fox-Makoto apparition at the very end. Wih this, all of the girls were basically gathered together, and all is well that ends well.
"They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself." (Andy Warhol)
Yuuichi, my sir, you did very well in this series. Heh, oughta give to Caesar what is Caesar's.
Having shown my point of views on the whole coverage of the series, it is much easier for me now to explain in a few words my thoughts.
First of all, let me say that I don't care about whatever resolution the screenwiters may have chosen. They were all believable paths, so I'd have been ok with any of them. Certainly, I felt really bad for Nayuki near the end, so I'd have hoped for her share of happiness.
It didn't happen, but it's ok. It makes sense that Yuuichi ended with Ayu, as it would have made sense if he ended with Shiori, or Mai, or even Sayuri.
So my opinion won't really be changed from this or that happening. Also because romance is not what Kanon is mainly made of.
As abundantly explained, the storyline has some weak points, costing some points in my judgement.
For a dramatic series, it may be anti-climatic to see all finishing well, and probably this choice has detract something to Kanon 2006 in terms of unforgivability: it's a common thought that you'll remember more a tragic epilogue rather than a positive one. At the end, we may count 2 dead peoples (Makoto and Kazuya – Sayuri's brother - , but I'm tempted not to count Makoto as really dead, since she's always wandering around, either in spiritual form, either in her animal form).
This aspect can really divide people's opinions.
As for me, I like drama but I also like fairy tales with their magic when they occur. I'm a dreamer. A dream is the key of Kanon 2006. It's not difficult if I can sort it all out saying that I liked the ending in its whole.
I think I've really said all that I had to say. Oh, and I chose a friday to say it: for one reason: it's the first "Kanon-less" friday. Just wanted to make it "Kanonly" special in some other way.
All in all, I don't think this series would be deserving a ten. It is plenty of merits, really. It's near to be a masterpiece, really. But for a reason or another, there's something missing. I don't know if 26 episodes could have solved the deal (by adding the point I mentioned as probably lacking), but as a matter of things, I can call this series "excellent", without going further.
With a brief summing up of all the ratings I've given around the way, I ended up giving:
Overall Rating: 94%
But all considered, I have to round down that total, and so my final rating for Kanon 2006, as it will appear in this poll, is a solid 9

Apologies for the delay in posting my write-up. I had less time than I expected during the past week. I must say though, it was fun writing this much about anime in MS-Word. This is probably the longest I have ever written about any anime since Strawberry Panic.
I will be using the [spoiler] tags to split up my write-up into manageable sections (so that your eyes don't bleed from trying to read all of it in one go. You can read one section first, then come back to read more). The following is representative of my own personal opinions, and so it is more than likely that we will come to a disagreement on some points (hopefully not most).
It is not usually my habit to compare and contrast between a source material and its' respective anime-adaptation, but since it was KyoAni's ambition to portray the Kanon game faithfully in anime-form, I will be making several references to the game, and point out where it got better, and where it got worst (which is of course, subjective).

I hope I have not bored you with this write-up. I chose to do it in a more flamboyant style as that is my preferred method of conveying my thoughts. I am not good at maintaining a serious tone in my write-ups like Zaris, as that tends to bore me as I write it (this even applies to my technical reports). I can read it though.
I would also like to thank NightWish for helping me with my problem of using some of the vB Code utilised within this post; and of course I would like to thank you, the reader, for reading this.
Onwards to Lucky Star!

I rated it 8 out of 10. Kanon was a Very Good anime series. I enjoyed it a lot, might re-watch it once, would recommend it enthusiastically and shall always remember it.
Following CrowKenobi, I averaged my vote for each episode
Spoiler for my votes:
The average is 8.75. I've omitted the 0.75 to "compensate" the Perfect-10-spree I went in the end.
I'd like to take the chance to thank all the fansub groups for doing a wonderful (and speedy! ) job. Also, I'd like send my regards to the mods for maintaining this sub-forum ("no spoilers"! ). Ofcourse, I won't forget the awesome posters *hands everyone e-cookies*. Seriously, I've begun to look forward to discuss the episode more than actually watch it.
I love Kanon.

About the Ayu arc... I think a good way to put it is with comparisons to Air.
In Air, the first couple of episodes were spent on introductions and getting to like the characters. The next two episodes focused on Kano, though it did come a bit too quickly. Then we get Minagi/Michiru's story for another two episodes, during which Misuzu's state begins to show and develop. After that, it's six episodes of full-swing Misuzu (including the Summer arc - that's just as important).
Contrast this to Kanon. It takes two episodes before Makoto's even introduced. I actually liked the pacing at that point, but over the next 4-5 episodes it just slowed to a crawl. Makoto's arc spanned 3 and a half episodes, which helped give it a full impact, but it could have worked with just two episodes to be honest. Mai's spanned 5 episodes, even better. Shiori's was another 3, but imho it was one episode too long. This meant they only had 6 episodes to tell everything left, from her past, to Nayuki's story, and even Ayu waking up.
They just ran out of episodes to be honest. Had they cut down on the introductory episodes, and actually mixed the characters' development into other arcs (whilst not nearing their climax, of course), it would work a lot better. Something like this, perhaps:
Spoiler for Kanon all episodes:
Ooh yes, that reminds me. Thanks to Eclipse, SS, TWH, and Sprocket Hole for your super-fast, but still awesome, subs! Really, having two consistently high-quality 24 hour releases (and another that's usually out within a few days) is just somewhat of a godsend. You guys are awesome, and I only hope we'll get the same dedication for Clannad. <3

text: One more game remains for the Leavenworth Pioneers this season, but more games will come if Leavenworth can jump over Lawrence in the district standings. The Pioneers are seven points behind Lawrence for second place in the district. "There are so many different scenarios that we'd be here all day talking about them," head coach Mark Littrell said. He added that he's just going to focus on winning and see how Lawrence did against Free State afterwards. Leavenworth (3-5) plays at Wyandotte (3-5), who has lost its past two games by a combined 80 points. Free State put 55 points on them and Lawrence scored 81 on the Bulldogs last week, but Wyandotte quarterback Dimonic McKinzy has more than 2,100 passing yards and 400 rushing yards this season. "He'll get outside so we've got to contain him and make sure we don't give him anything in his escape lanes," Littrell said. The University of Minnesota commit has 32 total touchdowns this season, including five through the air last week against Lawrence. Littrell said there have been some defensive mistakes made during practice this week, but he said the players have learned what their assignments are for this game. "They've picked it up and they understand the urgencies involved and what we have to do," Littrell said. The escape ability has limited sacks on the versatile quarterback this season. "The film I've watched of him, he's only been sacked once or twice," Littrell said. "He buys a lot of time so they are going to have to cover the receivers for a long time." McKinzy has a few main targets he goes to, so defensive back play will be something to watch. "We've just got to play smart and make sure we get our coverages right and not have nay blown assignments," Littrell said. The Bulldogs have three receivers with more than 30 catches, 500 yards and five touchdowns. However, the defense has allowed more than 37 points per game, so Landry Hodges, Jason Randall and Isaiah Ross will be looking to put up big numbers. With so much rainfall this week, Littrell did say the field conditions could become a concern since Sumner and Atchison played on the Wyandotte field on Thursday. But he added that he is confident his players can handle the conditions.

Editor's Note: EarthTechling is proud to repost this article courtesy of Worldwatch Institute. Author credit goes to Chris Flavin.
After months of retrograde discussion of energy policy on the campaign trail, the United States woke up on Wednesday to a surprisingly happy conclusion: U.S. voters have rejected candidate Romney's fossil fuels-only approach to energy policy and embraced the new course set by President Obama in his first term.
It was the fossil fuel industry itself, fueled by millions of dollars from the coal and oil industries, that decided more than a year ago to turn the 2012 election into a crusade—and a referendum. Bolstered by an unprecedented war-chest and exaggerated attention to a few failed solar loans by the Obama administration, the energy establishment made its election preference abundantly clear, giving American voters a clear choice. It was an all-in bet by the "drill-baby-drill" crowd—and one they decisively lost.
Throughout the campaign, the fossil fuel companies' arguments were undermined by the fact that, apart from the failed cap-and-trade legislation, President Obama has a solid energy record. During his first term, the fuel economy standards for automobiles were nearly doubled, U.S. carbon dioxide emissions fell 10 percent, oil imports declined 32 percent, wind power more than doubled, and solar energy jumped sevenfold—energy achievements that arguably exceed those of any U.S. president in modern times.
Public opinion polls show that a solid majority of Americans support President Obama's policies to spur the development of new energy industries and reduce dependence on oil and coal. The coal industry's efforts to exaggerate the number of jobs in coal mining (representing just 2 out of every 1,000 jobs in the pivotal state of Ohio) fell flat as the public began to realize that U.S. jobs in the wind, solar, and battery industries already exceed coal mining (an industry that has voluntarily eliminated three-quarters of its jobs via automation over the past two decades).
President Obama's challenge in his second term is to strengthen federal support for renewable energy while closely guarding taxpayers' money. To be effective, he will also have to come up with an energy strategy more inspiring than the "All of the Above" slogan his political advisers came up with in his first term. The new focus should be "Energy Transformation"—building a high-tech energy system that strengthens the economy, lowers oil imports, and reduces the pollutants that threaten human health and the environment.
The election results may also give President Obama the courage to take on Republicans' decision to wage a war against the science of climate change. Public opinion was already against this Neolithic position, but when Superstorm Sandy pounded the Northeast just a week before the election, the message from the natural world was unambiguous: replacing fossil fuels with clean energy is not just an economic opportunity, but a human necessity.

Yesterday, concerns about a less than optimistic growth outlook for the Eurozone crushed oil down to the lower end of its trading range channel. Not only that, weakening expectations on today's jobs report help play into oil's weakening demand sentiment story. Today oil will have to decide whether it is going to be safe to be short over the weekend as geopolitical risks rise in the aftermath of what will be a skewed monthly jobs report in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Add to that the overnight earthquake that hit off the coast of Japan.
Not only will we see a drop off in hiring on the East Coast, there are many who had no way to file for unemployment. Traders may forget about worrying about the headline numbers and try to get a gauge on the overall data by looking at things like average hourly work etc. They are expected to come in at 34.4 hours. Expectations for job creation seem to be slipping as we get closer to the report. Of course when you have low expectations it is easy to be surprised.
Distillate supply is below normal but with the weakening prospects for European growth it seems traders can be patient. Of course with warm weather and a wildly bearish gasoline price outlook it takes some of the upside pressure off. Still with oil at the lower end of the range it is possible that we could have a significant snap back if the jobs market report rocks. Expectations have been for it to continue to fall. The earthquake in Japan also might mean that some traders might worry about a short-term demand hit.
CBS News reported that a strong earthquake struck Friday off the coast of northeastern Japan in the same region that was hit by a massive earthquake and tsunami last year. A city in the region reported that a small tsunami had hit, but there were no reports of injuries or damage. The Japan Meteorological Agency said the earthquake had a preliminary magnitude of 7.3 and struck in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Miyagi prefecture at 5:18 p.m. (0318 Eastern). The epicenter was 6.2 miles beneath the seabed. After the quake, which caused buildings in Tokyo to sway for at least several minutes, authorities issued a warning that a tsunami potentially as high as 2.19 yards could hit. Ishinomaki, a city in Miyagi, reported that a tsunami of 1 yard hit at 6:02 p.m. (0402 Eastern). The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a widespread tsunami, and subsequently dropped all tsunami warnings for the Japanese coast. Miyagi prefectural police said there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries from the quake or tsunami, although traffic was being stopped in some places to check on roads. Shortly before the earthquake struck, NHK television broke off regular programming to warn that a strong quake was due to hit. Afterward, the announcer repeatedly urged all near the coast to flee to higher ground. The response is an indication of how deeply the 2011 disaster affected the densely-populated island nation's psyche.
The magnitude-9.0 earthquake and ensuing tsunami that slammed into northeastern Japan on March 11, 2011, killed or left missing some 19,000 people, devastating much of the coast. All but two of Japan's nuclear plants were shut down for checks after the earthquake and tsunami caused meltdowns at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant in the worst nuclear disaster since the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. Immediately following Friday's quake, there were no problems at any of the nuclear plants operated by Fukushima Dai-Ichi operator Tokyo Electric Power Co., said a TEPCO spokesman, Takeo Iwamoto.
The natural gas withdraw came in larger than market expectations but was generally priced in. The EIA said that working gas in storage was 3,804 Bcf as of Friday, November 30, 2012, according to EIA estimates. This represents a net decline of 73 bcf from the previous week. Stocks were 33 Bcf less than last year at this time and 168 Bcf above the 5-year average of 3,636 Bcf. In the East Region, stocks were 16 Bcf below the 5-year average following net withdrawals of 56 Bcf. Stocks in the Producing Region were 130 Bcf above the 5-year average of 1,143 Bcf after a net withdrawal of 14 Bcf. Stocks in the West Region were 54 Bcf above the 5-year average after a net drawdown of 3 Bcf. At 3,804 Bcf, total working gas is within the 5-year historical range.

Bedford police say death and attack separate events
BEDFORD - Tragedy shadowed a Bedford anesthesiologist and his young wife who, six weeks ago, were brutally attacked in an apparent home invasion then, this week, were found in a relative's home - the wife dead, the doctor unconscious and a pile of prescription drugs nearby.
The twist of fate suffered by Dr. Eduardo W. Quesada, 52, and his wife, Sonia Quesada, 29, is made more confusing by authorities insistence the two events are separate. Police offered no explanation for how they drew that conclusion.
"It's a separate matter," Bedford Police Chief John J. Bryfonski said Wednesday of the Nov. 24 incident at 7 Proclamation Court that left the couple seriously injured and Monday's events at 49 Kensington Lane.
"The only information that we are releasing is the information that was released in the press release (on Monday)," Bryfonski continued."I'm not going to discuss anything other than what was on the press release," he added.
He noted police "are working the case. The case is open."
According to the statement, one of Dr. Quesada's relatives expressed concern about the couple's welfare Monday morning and Bedford police went to the 49 Kensington Lane condominium where the two had been staying.
Police forced open the door to find Sonia Quesada dead and her husband unconscious. The couple's 2-year-old daughter was staying with relatives at another location.
Dr. Quesada went to Catholic Medical Center, where police said they were able to communicate with him. They would not discuss what he said.Quesada, who is an anesthesiologist and pain management specialist, was in stable condition Tuesday.
An autopsy done on Sonia Quesada's body Tuesday was inconclusive; toxicological test results are pending. The state medical examiner's office said her body showed no signs of violence and her death does not appear to be a homicide.
The condominium is located in The Mews, a private, thickly settled, over-55 community off Meetinghouse Road; the unit is owned by Dr. Quesada's mother, Norma Quesada, 81.
Police found no sign of forced entry, no visible trauma to either spouse and said the couple were the only ones home at the time.
A "large amount" of prescription medication was found in the room, authorities have said.
On Nov. 24, the couple reported an intruder attacked them when they returned to their 7 Proclamation Court home about 10 p.m. The doctor and his wife suffered serious injuries requiring both be hospitalized.
The couple described their attacker as a man at least 6 feet tall wearing a black ski mask and dark clothing.
"It's still a valid description," Bryfonski said Wednesday.
To date, no arrests have been made and the suspect remains at large.
"We're still working the case," the chief said.
Meanwhile, neighbors and workers along Proclamation Court said the $1 million-plus home in which the Quesadas lived now sits empty.
Moving trucks arrived Friday and a few utility crews came and went earlier this week.
Town tax records list Dr. Quesada as the owner of the home; records were current as of Thursday.
Dr. Quesada is listed as a member of Amoskeag Anesthesia PLLC and has privileges at Manchester's Elliot Hospital. Michael O'Sullivan, executive director of Amoskeag Anesthesia at One Elliot Way in Manchester, would not discuss Dr. Quesada Wednesday.
"I'm not really going to answer any questions at this time. Thank you," he said before hanging up the phone.

Hello Fire Hose friends.
Perhaps on Halloween you stumbled across an article on Kotaku about how you, yes you, can play BioShock Monopoly for free. If you did not see it there you might have seen it on GamesRadar, GamePro, or The Escapist . There are other sites that it is appearing on as well….
As it turns out this board game was not made by a 20 something art student in Canada, as some sources are reporting, but was actually created by your's truly.
It may be hard to believe but I like BioShock.
This is me, dressed as a Little Sister, holding onto Songbird while standing next to Delta across from Elizabeth.

For every Elmore Leonard adaptation which has soared ("Get Shorty," "Out of Sight"), there's one that sank like the Titanic ("Be Cool," "Karen Sisco"). FX's new series, "Justified," based on Leonard's character U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, who was featured in two books and one short story, falls triumphantly in the former category, making this noir western one of the most promising new hours TV has to offer.
In the show, which debuted Tuesday night, Timothy Olyphant stars as Givens, a Marshal whose particular brand of justice gets him reassigned to the hometown in rural Kentucky he loathes. While there are undeniable shades of his "Deadwood" character, Marshall Seth Bullock, Olyphant commands the screen with a quiet authority. Place your bets, kids, Olyphant is our early favorite for both an Emmy and a Golden Globe nod.
Each yin must have a yang and Givens finds his in Boyd Crowder, an old coal mining buddy. Played by Walton Goggins, formerly of "The Shield," Crowder is the man Givens might have been if he'd gone Vader instead of Luke.
Speaking proudly of the show's dedication to uphold the excellence of Leonard's writing, Goggins explained the "WWED" (What Would Elmore Do?) bracelets show creator Graham Yost gave his writing staff became a sentiment that permeated the set. "I think [audiences] will really appreciate the humor, the writing and the stylistic kind of dialogue ongoing interpretation of Elmore Leonard…that kind of banter," Goggins says of the show which he describes as "the Coen Brothers meets 'The Shield.'"
If that doesn't inspire you to set your DVR, what will?

Manchester man attacked with hammer during home invasion
MANCHESTER - Police are investigating a home invasion on Dubuque Street early Friday in which a guest was attacked with a hammer and seriously injured.
Officers were called to Catholic Medical Center shortly after 2 a.m. Friday to speak with Brian Smithurst, 27, who sustained serious injuries to his head and face in the assault in his girlfriend's apartment at 508 Dubuque St.
Smithurst's girlfriend told police she and several friends were in her apartment when the attackers burst in through the front door.
The girlfriend said the home invaders began assaulting people in the apartment, attacking Smithurst with a hammer.
She told police she did not know the people who broke in, describing them only as several adult Hispanic males and a white adult female. She said the attackers fled after the assault.
Police Sgt. Craig Rousseau said Smithurst was transferred to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon because of the seriousness of his injuries.

Answering six questions on the new SC HELP website will help determine if you qualify for the publicly funded program that is intended to help struggling South Carolina homeowners avoid foreclosure.
SCHELP.gov also offers information on identifying and avoiding mortgage-assistance fraud, and documents applicants will need for completing an application.
The program was initiated in 2011 through funding by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and an initiative of the S.C State Housing Finance and Development Authority.
It provides mortgage-payment assistance for homeowners who are falling behind on mortgage payments due to circumstances beyond their control. That includes conditions such as unemployment, underemployment, reduction in self-employed income, catastrophic illness, and death of a spouse or divorce.
The program has helped more than 5,000 South Carolina homeowners since its inception, officials said.
Carolina Park in Mount Pleasant officially opens its Residents Club in mid-July, officials said last week.
The amenity includes an Olympic-sized pool with beach entry, in addition to an open-air pavilion and pirate playground. Future additions include an outdoor kitchen, tennis courts and an expansive space for outdoor gatherings.
Carolina Park is a 1,700-acre planned development off U.S. Highway 17 along the northern end of Mount Pleasant. It has added a group of new homebuilders that are creating semi-custom homes in the $300,000 price range and custom homes in the new Riverside neighborhood starting upward of $500,000.

ALBERT MCCALLUM of SCOTLAND?
Hi to you all.
I am looking for any info what so ever on an ALBERT TAYLOR MCCALLUM.
I do not have much info on him at all only as follows.
ALBERT TAYLOR MCCALLUM & ETHEL MAYSHAW were living in Scotland in the 1800's.
They had a son ALFRED TAYLOR MCCALLUM, who was supposably born in ABERFELDY, SCOTLAND.
I have traced up a few records for ALFRED, who is, I guess born on 13 AUGUST, but not sure what year, as he seems to pick and choose a different year on everything I find. The date is always the same, but the years range from 1873 on his criminal records file to 1899 and lots in between on all his Army Records. Even the Head Office for the War Records cannot work it out. I have ALFRED's marriage 1st marriage certificate, where he married in Western Australia to an ELLEN BRYAN. This where he states that his parents were the above two people ( ALBERT & ETHEL ) I also have ALFRED's son's birth and death certificates, that also state, ALFRED & ELLEN, were his parents, and that ALFRED is born in ABERFELDY, SCOTLAND.
ALFRED's army records also give ALBERT TAYLOR MCCALLUM as his Father for his next of kin, with an address in BALHAM, ENGLAND in 1917.
Then in the 1930's he is living in VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA, and he lists his next of kin as his wife, ALICE MCCALLUM.
I have found no death records for any of these people above, except for ELLEN BRYAN.
I have no idea where to turn or look next, can anybody out there help me out PLEASE !!!
Cheers Chez :)
Looking for info on Elsie May Cozens & Charles Henry Dalton in Western Australia
My Cozens are in Western Australia, but bot sure where before that.
I am looking for Marion Rose ? or Rose Marion ? who married William James Cozens.
They had a daughter Elsie May Cozens and a son Clarence William James Cozens.
Then I know Elsie May had three daughters, June Dalton born 1935,in the Fremantle area, not sure of the other two. June's father was Charles Henry Dalton ( they married in 1935 fremantle and he died in 1944 ). Not sure if he was the father to the other two girls. There was not many years between these girls and I think the other two were younger than June.
Cheers in advance if you can shed some light on any of these for me

Elsie May Cozens Born around 1900, not sure where married Charles Henry Dalton born in 1899 in Guilford, Western Australia. Elsie also married a William George Ryan.
She had 3 daughters, June, maybe Pearl ?, and don\'t know the other. All were born in W.A somewhere pretty close together. We know June Dalton was born in 1935.
Elsie May Cozens father was William James Cozens born around 1872 in Victoria. I am not sure if Elsie\'s mother was Marion Rose McEachern ??? not sure where she is from either.
My husband\'s family must have been a very secretive family on both mother and father side, as I have only hit brick walls with them, either there is no traces or nothing matches.
Looking for info on Alan David Gamble & Adelaide Muriel Ruthven Family in Australia
My Gambles are from around the Colac areas in Victoria.
My grandfather was Alan David Gamble born 1911,who married Adelaide Muriel Ruthven born 1917 in Western Australia. They had 11 children, I have all the info on their children. I am now going backwards to Victoria, where Alan was born in Colac.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

NEW YORK (AP) — The only thing more unlikely than a movie about a boy adrift on a ship with a Bengali tiger is the tale of the film's star.
Teenager Suraj Sharma went along with his acting brother to a Delhi, India, audition of "Life of Pi" purely as a favor, motivated by the promise of a free meal.
"He said, 'Come with me because I don't want to go alone,'" Sharma recalled in an interview at Lincoln Center shortly before the film premiered at the New York Film Festival in September. "I said, 'Fine, as long as you buy me a sandwich afterwards.' That sandwich got me 'Pi.'"
For a film about the wonder of faith, Sharma's experience is one that stretches belief. Despite no prior acting experience or ambition, he managed to separate himself from 3,000 applicants and emerged through four rounds of auditions as the star in one of the most anticipated movies of the year.
For "Life of Pi" to work, Sharma — now 19, 17 when filming started — had to succeed. And many think the film, to be released Wednesday, not only works, but is a legitimate Oscar contender — a 3-D magic act from director Ang Lee that translates Yann Martel's 2001 best seller into a colorful cinematic language.
In it, Sharma plays Pi Patel, who, as a child, precociously combines Christianity, Buddhism and Islam into his own blend of religion. When his family is uprooted to Canada, the ship taking Pi, his family and many zoo animals, sinks in a storm, leaving Pi alone and clinging to life in a raft boat.
Making the film meant working with one of the most revered directors in movies. It meant spending months shooting in India and Taiwan, where a giant water tank was built for scenes at sea. It meant learning not only how to act, but literally how to swim.
"I can't put it in words," says Sharma, a bright and earnest kid who humbly recognizes his good fortune. "It's too much. It was emotionally and spiritually and physically exhausting. I would never be able to tell people what I went through exactly, but hopefully it will come through in some ways."
It was a journey Sharma's parents (both mathematicians, fittingly) had some reluctance about, as it would mean missing a year of school. Lee argued a year spent working on "Life of Pi" would be more rewarding than a year of school. Sharma's mother performed a ceremony that made Lee her son's guru — a new role for the director.
"I couldn't even tell a joke in front of him. I had to behave," Lee jokes. "I had to look after him. Normally when I work with actors, they move on and I move on. ... I can pretty much say he started at the top — getting this kind of reception and making a movie. So I want to make sure he's grounded and still getting his education — not only in school but in life. He should be OK if he doesn't get crushed by what's coming."
"He's a good boy," adds Lee. "It seems like he can take it."
In "Life of Pi," there's nowhere for a young actor to hide, either. For a long stretch of the film, Pi is alone in the skiff with only the tiger, which was digitally added. Sharma had the added pressure of acting extensively in front of a blue screen, with little to go on other than Lee's directions.
"Honestly, I still feel like I don't know how to act," says Sharma. "It was just him. I was just an instrument. He has this thing — suppose you're really nervous and stressed out and going crazy — he'll look you in the eye in a particular manner, and no matter who it is, you just go: whoosh! He's like a Zen master or something. He makes you so calm that you just let him mold you into whatever he wants to mold you into."
Sharma is now in his first year at Delhi University where he's concentrating his studies on philosophy.
"I'm pretty sure I want to end up in the film industry," he says. "I don't know if I want to act or not, but I do want to be part of making magic."
