Honestly, most shows based off visual novels/dating games annoy the hell out of me (don't string ten girls along. PICK ONE. Also, characters designed expressly to match a certain zokusei/fetish popular among otaku irritate me too) so it's not really a criticism of Kanon in particular. Even stuff aimed at that same segment (like Haruhi for example) can aggravate me on occasion. So I think it's fair to say that I have a slight bias against that type of show - I had an argument with someone in RL who wanted me to watch AIR on the grounds that it was 'shoujo'. Um, no it's not.
Er well. I only watched the first episode of Kanon, anyway, so I can't really judge. I don't mean to nitpick on something you like.
Still, I don't recall Yuuichi being such an ass in the first version so I wonder where this comes from. I hope he shapes up soon.
