History Trivia / Kanon

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: A Canadian English dub of the 2002 anime was produced, with all of the episodes dubbed, but it wasn't announced and was left unreleased for some unknown reason.

* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: The cast of the show – three of them, at any rate – first debuted in the West in a {{cameo}} in ''VisualNovel/{{Air}}''. It didn't take ADV too long to pick up the [=KyoAni=] version of ''Kanon'', but the Toei version had been out for half a decade at that point. And yes, the voice actors are all the same despite a nearly two-year gap between the shows.

** In episode 4 of ''Manga/LuckyStar'', Konata's second excuse for being late to class is that she was hiding in a cafe with a girl who'd stolen from a taiyaki stand, in a very obvious reference to ''Kanon'' and Ayu's taiyaki-stealing tendencies. A later episode shows Konata saying [[VerbalTic "Uguu!"]] and inexplicably wearing Ayu's signature winged backpack when Kagami yells at her.
