She's a perfect idealistic waifu who has little personality apart from being insecure and shy. She very well fits into the Yamato Nadeshiko trope which I don't like at all.
Don't get me started on the pairing called Tomoya x Nagisa. I fucking love romantic dramas, they will always feature characters who are insanely flawed and have realistic personalities. Their relationship will have at least some amount of conflict to make it interesting.
Tomoya and Nagisa have very little conflict, they naturally get along with each other like love birds which are pretty unrealistic circumstances. If Nagisa was fleshed out more, I would've liked this pairing but Nah, they didn't care to flesh out her personality at all. She always shows two emotions being shy or being sad and that's all you need to know about Nagisa.
Before anyone comes and tells me that Nagisa and Tomoya are made for each other, I think you haven't really watched OVAs and read Visual novels where Tomoya ends up with other girls. Nagisa isn't the only one he shares chemistry with. IMO, he has way more interesting relationships with other girls especially Tomoyo and Ryou than Nagisa herself.
First, this is my *anime* list, Vn’s and Ln’s mean little to me, the Ova’s are my least favorite parts of clannad, i get it, the girls want tomoya but them being together with him ain’t it, the chemistry ain’t even there,it’s forced, (probably because it’s a OVA and he magically has to be interested in anyone outside of nagisa who you can correct me if i’m wrong but she doesn’t make an appearance in either OVA) they’re perfect for each other, nagisa is pretty fleshed out to me, she’s frail and sickly but optimistic around her family, she tries hard but has little motivation until she meets, tomoya, she knows what she wants but is afraid to act, ready to accept defeat if it means someone is happy, and just needs a little push which tomoya gives her, eventually she’s able to act on her own after overcoming her biggest hardship which is blaming herself for something she can’t control, she can’t control she’s sickly, she can’t control her parents schedule, she can’t stop them from loving her enough to give up on their dreams for her, she eventually, she says what she means, acts accordingly, and overcomes highschool, she takes on the real world even tho it can have its hiccups but tomoya doesn’t have to be there for her to do that, but him being there is just the plus she needs to keep moving, she eventually asks for something that could put her In danger and even when the odds are against she’s still able to be there for tomoya, who’s done more than enough for her, at his lowest points, nagisa is well fleshed out, not generic by any means, she unique even if she does play into a trope, bland is never to be seen so imma pretend you didn’t say it, L take man but you have your opinion, I ain’t gonna argue about it cause at the end of the day i love this anime and its characters and your takes mean just as much as Ln and Vn’s mean to me.
