        1. if you copy the contents of the all ages folder into the main game directory it will replace the H-scenes in game. then if you want to go back just remove those files.

  1. When I try extracting the voice patch files, I get an error message from WinRAR saying “Unexpected end of archive” when it gets to part 2. I also got those messages on parts 5 and 7. I tried repairing it to no avail. What am I doing wrong?

      1. So I redownloaded the parts that weren’t working and they extracted properly into the Kanon folder, but now the game isn’t even playing any the voices? What do I do?

  2. what do I have to download, if I want to play it in english version ^^?
    sorry, new in visual novel world ^^

  3. In what world does filesonic think 250 MB can be downloaded in 17.6 minutes?!

    On a different download, I’m at 248 MB of 342 MB, and I have an estimated time to completion of 17 minutes. And my connection is going full tilt right now, as I’m not downloading anything else.

    Where the heck are they pulling these numbers from?

    1. IKR? I think they just really want people to pay money for a premium account even though you don’t need one.

      1. That really depends on country and ISP. For example I have 24Mbit downstream during daytime (12-24) and 64Mbit during night (24-12) – it takes me less than a minute to download single 250MB part, from either fileserve or filesonic, using premium account and 10 concurrent connections.

    1. The voices add another level of depth to the story and help to better immerse you into the story. They help to convey emotion better than just text and the couple static portraits can. And even if you don’t know Japanese, you tend to start to be able to pick up words and phrases anyway.

    1. Download the files you want, mount the ISO with daemon tools for example, install and it should end up in C:/KEY folder, then just extract the language patch to C:/KEY/MANON_SE, but as for the voice patch i haven’t figured that one out yet.

      1. AHA! I’m the bestest… *cough*

        Anyway, just extract the voice patch to your desktop, open up that folder and cut and paste folder KOE into your KANON_SE root folder and you’re all set…

  4. Is the voice patch the English voices or the Japanese voices? Because I prefer the Japanese voices. (For once.) The English ones just aren’t cute enough for me.

  5. I know uploading cost you so much time, but why dont you uploader upload your stuffs on http://www.mediafire.com, this site doesn’t has any stupid limit like waiting time or 1 file per download.

    This is just my suggestion, thank for sharing this game

    1. Mediafire has 200MB file limit, meaning that some games would have to be split into 40+ parts. It’s blocked by many ISPs. I get terrible upload speeds ( ~600KB/s on 1GBit connection). Last thing – i work very closely with filesonic and fileserve on all my sites for a quite long time. i have convinient scripts written for those that let me upload to them by writing single command, i get messaged when any of my files get deleted due to DMCA complaints etc.
      Since i’m using two mirrors you don’t have to wait while first part is downloaded – you can start downloading second part from other host. mirrors are interchangeable.

      1. Too bad filesonic/serve cannot be used for sharing anymore, huh?

        I really prefer mediafire though. For me, the rate is faster. Not to mention, you can download multiple files at once, allowing me to download all parts at the same time, rather than waiting for them to be done(especially for the ones you put in 10+ parts)

    1. Unfortunately, yes. Japan has some rather strange rules/laws regarding pornography. Although tits are fine (as long as it’s not shown on TV) all genitalia (both male and female) have to be censored in pornography. Though sometimes American companies/fan translators edit the CG’s to make them uncensored. (JAST USA is pretty good about doing that)

  6. i can’t figure out how to get the game to work…i got the menu to change into english but the game crashes whenever i try to do anything else..so any ideas?..thanks in advance

    1. Try manually copying and pasting the english patch files DIRECTLY into the folder and replace the files that need to be replaced. Not Kanon SE but the G00 folder (I think…) inside it. Oh BTW, thanks for the voice patch!!!~~~ =>

    1. well obviously ull need the game download, but that will only be the game as it was made. Download that first, and if you can’t read japanese, download the english patch. that’ll make most, if not all, text in japanese english. The voice patch is just voice, it is in japanese and it’s completely optional. I find that it makes it seem more “animelike” or just funner to have voice, since itll have expression and such.

      1. but why the voice patch heavy then game ? the game only have 3 part and the voice have alot part,so i was thinking maybe the game already include in voice patch,thats why its as many part,thats what i mean,so should i download all like 1) i download the game 2) the english patch 3) the voice,like that?

  7. i got a problem i installed the game put the english patch and voice files in the kanon folder but the game is on japanes and only the begining menu is on english. someone know what i do wrong

  8. when i open part 3 rar it says the iso file is corrupted, i already tried downloading from both servers however when i open rar it stops at 28% iso file, help plz?

  9. Noobie here..
    I downloaded the game, English patch and the voice path. When I installed it and clicked new game, the game freezes the first thing when it’s snowing. Is there a way to solve this? D:

  10. I have the same problem as few guys before me: after patching only starting menu and some sentences in movie are in english; whole game remains in japanese… Any ideas how to solve it?

  11. If the game is +18, does that mean that if i don’t copy the “All ages” folder from the english patch, the game will be uncensored?

    1. No, unfortunately ALL hentai/live porn/eroge in japan is censored unless you download a modified version or a patch for the original.

      1. Yeah, the laws are odd.

        Luckily, it apparently only states you must have censorship, it never says how much.

        Thus, many H-doujins have small(VERY small) black bars on their works, so that you can still pretty much see everything.

  12. I’m having an issue with the game. I start a new game but the second it gets to the snowy screen, the game freezes. Anyone know what’s up with this? I’ve downloaded everything again and it’s still pausing.

    1. I am having the same issue. I copied the english patch into my Kanon folder and it still appears in japanese.

  13. The english patch has dislayed a trojan when it scan the file patch, would there be another english patch for Kanon?

  14. is there any difference between Dreamcast and PS2 voice patches besides sound quality?I know the PSP has re-recorded voices(and Shiori has a different voice,the same from the anime,and Yuuichi has voice too)but no patch was made for this version

  15. I am also getting the problem where the game immediately freezes on the first screen after clicking what I assume is “new game” (don’t know if the English patch is supposed to be for the menus or just for the in-game text).

    It may not do too much good to repeat a question that’s already been asked and still not answered but… anyone have any ideas?

    I don’t mind looking at snow while listening to nice music, but it would be good if I could play the actual game,lol.

    1. Me too 🙁 I downloaded the All Ages version and the same thing happens. Somehow, I can’t get the translation patch to work, and it always freezes on the screen after the top button!!! Does anybody know what went wrong?

  16. uhm someone knows where i can download the “uncensoring” patch? because it’s annoying to watch pixels… plz help T_T

  17. whoa, the voice is bigger than the game itself… :3 but I do know that this one of the famous VN so I’ll download this one too but much later X3

  18. Thanks for this, but i can’t really play this anymore after having watched the anime..

    I know it’s a pretty old game, but i don’t like the “artstyle” at all, and it makes me want to stop playing the visual novel.
    If wouldve played this before other visual novels this wouldn’t be a problem, but i guess i’m spoiled :p

    Oh well still got the anime and ty for the upload.

    1. Well, you could always play it for the other endings. The anime only covers a generic ending, if you recall, there is a lot of girls.

      1. It’s true, the ending in the anime is really generic. To know truly how it ended and all the details in the story, u have to play the VN, I find it totally worth the time. This is my absolute favorite VN among all I have read. I agree the art is rather outdated, but u can get used to it after looking at it for a while, and the story is simply amazing, as well as the background music (well I’m more prone to be impressed with music than normal people). Plot twists are surprisingly good and characters have quotes that will make u remember forever. I suggest playing Ayu’s route last, all the things u don’t understand while playing will suddenly all come together, u will be amazed.

  19. anyone else get a virus message on the reallive-patch.exe? i downloaded from rapidshare. Trojan horse Dropper.Generic2.FAN, using AVG antivirus

  20. does this game require Daemon Tools in order to extract the .rar files of the game?? ’cause when I extracted it using winrar, all I get are 2 files that doesn’t play on my pc..

  21. I’ve redownloaded about 4 times now and it seems there’s a corrupt file in there because it keeps saying it won’t finish extracting because of a corrupt file.

    1. I just downloaded it from the mediafire’s mirrors and everything, English patch, voice patch, is working smoothly.

    1. the download doesn’t start properly. i can download another part though, just voice patch link1. is the link dead?

  22. so in the English patch, reallive-patch.exe comes up as a trojan horse virus.

    I GET that porn comes with viruses..

    but uh, can I get a version that doesn’t have one on it?

    1. “porn comes with viruses” only if you’re using bad sites.
      Every download posted here is checked before being posted. You should send the .exe that allegedly contains the trojan to your antivirus vendor so that they can check it and update their databases to remove this false positive.

      1. Bad sites? Sorry, I’m really not familiar with the porn industry/online environment; all of my guy friends tell me that porn shuts their computer down etc.

        Hmm.. It popped up as a “trojan dropper generic” on both anti-viruses that I use. Some friends tell me that some videogames will alert anti-viruses into thinking that they are a threat. Is this what is going on, then?

        Also.. I have no idea how to send the .exe in to the AV vendor. Sorry, I’m REALLY bad with the internet, and everything else to do with it.

        But thank you~ I’ll look into it more 🙂
