Kanon (カノン, Kanon?) is a Japanese visual novel developed by Key and released on June 4, 1999. The original version, made for the PC, was rated 18 or older by Japan's Ethics Organization of Computer Software, but an all ages version was released on in January 2000. Subsequent general-audience versions were produced for the Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation Portable. Later, the Kanon Standard Edition was released for the PC, playable as a DVD-ROM in adult and all-ages versions. The Kanon Standard Edition incorporates the few extra graphics added to the all-ages version of the game. Both Standard Editions add support for Windows 2000/XP and other technical changes such as more save slots. Otherwise, the all-ages Kanon Standard Edition is the same as the original all-ages version released for the game.

The gameplay in Kanon follows a linear plot line where the player interacts at predetermined times to choose several options that appear on the screen. The game was developed so that the focus for the player would be an intricate plot and the appeal of the five female main characters. The title is generally believed to be derived from the musical term canon; the second TV adaptation plays on this association by using of Pachelbel's Kanon D-dur, or Canon in D major, as a background piece at certain instances throughout the series.

Kanon has made several transitions to other media. There are two anime adaptations, the first being a thirteen episode TV series that first aired on January 31, 2002; this version includes a one episode OVA, Kazahana, released on May 3, 2003. Both the original anime adaptation and the OVA were produced by the animation studio Toei Animation. The second anime adaptation, created by Kyoto Animation, aired in Japan between October 5, 2006 and March 15, 2007, containing twenty-four episodes; this series was licensed by ADV Films to be released in English.[1] The story was also adapted into light novels, drama CDs, and two manga series.
