| I watched Clannad a long time ago and I barely remember what it was about. I struggled with watching it but it's not because it was sad, but because it was slightly boring for me. I'd say, give it a try, but if you're easily impressed by anime emotions, then get your tissues ready 'cause you might cry. It depends on whether sad anime impact you in some way. For me, I'm more impacted by live action series and sometimes not even then. It depends. |

Ghost_Davo said: I wanted to watch Clannad for a long time now since this is supposed to be one of the best romances ever. The problem though is that people on the internet portray Clannad as a story that will destroy you ๐ and I'm not quite sure if I really want to be emotionally devastated right now because I have a lot going on with University etc. So I guess my question is how sad Clannad was to you guys and if it also impacted your actual life? This might be a stupid question to some people, but I just wanted to ask before watching. Clannad is probably the saddest piece of fiction I've ever experienced, still everyone should watch it nontheless |

| The first season isn't sad but the second season is rly depressing. Still rly good though |
| It's not possible to jerk off over it. |
| Clannad after story is a sad/10. Went as far to complete 100% of the visual novel |
| Most important thing is to be in the right mindset while watching. Wouldn't wanna watch Clannad if you easily get bored or have a short attention span. Tbh Clannad is a great watch even if you've been feeling anxious lately, it's packed with valuable life lessons |
| not so much i enjoyed both the comic gags and Nagisa sufferin- |
| Feel pain, think about pain, accept pain, know pain... Shinra Tensei! |
| It’s not soul crushingly depressing or anything like that. But it is pretty damn sad. Definitely worth the watch. Just don’t skip clannad so you can get to after story quicker, it won’t have the same impact if you do. |

Nah it’s normal bro but I watched it way back in 2017 or maybe 18? My concern wud be the quality of animation, as u might be accustomed to better quality anime by now , so watching it with an art style of mid 2000s might be a challenge if u recently started watching anime like in 2021( Clannad’s animation is extremely well for its tome though but doesn’t hold that well today for a lot of audience). I don’t find much of a difference in high quality anime of 2010s to what is being made now. A slightly improved animation but still the same level and still watchable.
Anyways I want a reboot of Clannad by ufotable like with fate stay ๐

| @GagzxAizen ???? what are you even saying? the animation is beautiful. 'I want a reboot of Clannad by ufotable like with fate stay' lmao what is this dude even saying. this anime does NOT need a reboot. |

| clannad may have its tough moments, but its not purely tragic, it offers hope and healing. people in the replies are exaggerating its sadness, its more about the emotional journey rather than just being sad for the sake of it. it isnt a constant sad, its a mix of heartfelt, emotional highs and lows. if you handled violet evergarden, which is emotionally intense but also hopeful, then you should be able to appreciate the balance of emotional moments in clannad too. also theres a lot of moe and funny shit in it too. something a lot of sad anime dont have. if youre still feeling unsure, then i might suggest watching some more sad/emotional/romance anime before clannad to ‘prepare’ yourself. such as: Anohana, Plastic Memories, WorldEnd, Orange, and Your Lie in April. im basing this according to your list. idk how accurate it is tho it doesn’t seem to show angel beats on the 'unique to notoshin' list. personally i wouldnt recommend angel beats anyway, since that hurt me more than clannad. but from what I see on your list, you've already watched some emotional anime, so I dont think you need to worry about clannad being any worse. if youre worried that might this fuck you over even more on top university stress, then id suggest watching this during the holidays. i thinks thats what i done. probably the safest bet. you can also enjoy it more. also how much an anime affects you really depends on the person. for me, anime with 'sad/emotional' endings hit harder than those that are sad throughout—its the difference between sadness and misery. that’s why angel beats fucked me up the most, even though the ending isnt exactly tragic. also, i don’t want to spoil anything, but clannad does NOT have a sad ending. this is definitely a must watch anime btw. (sorry for any mistakes, i dont usually write anything long here) |

| Clannad is emotional, especially in After Story, and could hit hard. It didn't impact my life much, but if you're going through a lot right now, it might be best to wait. |

Nah I still want a remake , I wanna see Demon slayer kinda animation treatment for this anime. The dream part with the robot and other stuff wud look gorgeous given the budget n time. Dreams r dreams n I can wish for them to be fulfilled , even if unpopular opinion๐๐
| @GagzxAizen I agree, dreams are dreams, you're free to wish for them to be fulfilled. You're entitled to your opinion, no matter how questionable they are. But given the context that your comment was on this forum post, your comments comes off as misleading. Clannad is already known for its beautiful animation. Kyoto Animation, the studio behind it, are also known for their consistently beautiful animation. Their ability to create emotionally rich visuals, that perfectly complement their stories. But then you suggest Ufotable. The studio known for their unlimited budget works. The studio known for their high-budget action-packed anime. Yes, they should definitely divert their efforts to remaking a well-established classic that doesn’t even fit their style. They should definitely risk ruining the aesthetic of Clannad. They should definitely remake a masterpiece. Ufotable isn't the only good studio bro. Are you trolling i ask? Is this Ufotable propaganda?  |

I let my intrusive thoughts win this time. Shud I say something irrelevant to the post n see how many people wud slander me ? It kinda turned out funny ๐. Kyo Ani is one of my fav studios, I loved Tamako Love story and other moe animation. U think ufo an action oriented studio wud make sense as a suggestion , Nooo , but still I suggested ๐๐ |
