THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Okay... I just watched the RAW and it was a nice and relaxing episode, no need for tissue paper this time. Poor Nagisa ... they HAD to make fun of her even till the very end (like her life is not tragic enough).

They showed a bit of what seems like a summary episode at the end after the ED song. The title is "Under the green tree" (I can only read the kanji so I might be horribly off with the translation).

Now need to wait for sub ...

I don't encourage people to watch RAW if they know nothing about it, but for great shows like Clannad, I just couldn't help myself. A few Japanese courses helped a lot (for me) in understanding partially what the conversations were about and being Asian myself, I can read the kanji title at least :P

Btw, there are bloggers out there who even blog anime after watching them RAW when they don't even understand the episode at all.

Anyway, this thread was created to discuss the anime ep 23, what does me watching RAW gotta do with it and I don't think that concern you, does it?

That was a great extra !! We can see Nagisa in her first senior high school year and how Kyou meets Sunohara and Tomoya!

Good Job !

If you read the Chinese Character its

緑 = green
下 = Under
树 = tree

So Under a Green Tree is a pretty good translation.

TBH I thought this episode was a little inappropriate after the chronological last episode. It wouldve been better for he first season first episode or something :/.

But it was alright.

Sunohara's mischievous as always!

The title is confusing since it's one year before the whole Clannad story begins...

I think that the placing of this episode was appropriate. It's not only fun to see these events while knowing about the tragedies/fun to follow, but it was also a nice way for the viewers to unwind after the emotionally taxing roller-coaster of the last episodes of After Story.

I was beginning to forget how fun Sunohara was as well.

Good episode to atone for all the sad and unfunny episodes in this season, After Story has severely lacked fun episodes, what a good idea to have this episode at the end.
Sunohara and Kyou FTW, lol at European ironing (it doesn't make sense) Sunohara has the best sense of Humour.

I liked this episode. Had a lot of Kyou and Sunohara so it was like season 1. It had an allusion to Kyou complaining about how it might be being a kindergarten teacher and look where she ended up. And it was nice to see that Tomoya and Nagisa were linked before they even knew each other. I also liked seeing the Akio/Sanae bread scenes again, and of course the bathtub scene.

Well, watching a raw that one doesn't understand makes it hard for that person to take part in a meaningful discussion about the episode. If a another person wanted to discuss a detail, the raw watcher can't do anything but speculate and add things like "I don't know but it looked like that" which is just a waste of time for the one to write it and for the other to read it thinking it was something insightful.

Well then those blogs have an idiotic reader fanbase. That is unless the blog only discusses the quality of the art.

Decent enough... Not as good as the last half of season 2 itself, but as good as some of the more rediculous episodes of Clannad season 1. =P

... Wow. This episode somehow redeemed Episode 22's rushed ending for me. I liked this episode a lot. It reminded me of the reason why I loved Clannad so much. Therefore, I'm raising the score for After Story from a 7 to an 8 for now.

Still pretty angry at the rushed ending, but I'm surprised an extra episode I didn't look well upon managed to make me regain some confidence in this series. All that's left is to see what tricks they have in Episode 24.

It's epic that Tomoya and Nagisa already have a link when they have no idea that they'll get married in the end :D

That was a perfect high note to end this all on. I thought it quite amusing to see the interactions with Nagisa before anyone ever knew her. Not to mention Kyou's apparent and long-held crush on Tomoya. Obviously though, the highlight of this episode was none other than the sisterly bathing. I mean, please is there ever a higher point? It really was like a step back in time into Season 1, though. I'd love to know how Operation Love Letter 2 turned out though. Ah well, time to go practice my extreme ironing.

it was really nostalgic and refreshing. it somehow made me realize that i actually like season 1 better which i wasn't quite sure of until now.

man how i'd love to see an alternative season focusing on kyou and/or tomoyo....
but i guess i'll need to play the game for that...

i'll miss watching Clannad

Pretty much meant to appease Kyou fanboys. I wish they would have shown stuff when everyone was an adult instead of back in high school. It's such a needless regression.

I am glad they made this bonus episode. It was fun and refreshing to see after all the serious drama that went on toward the end of AS. Also the antics of Tomoya and Sunohara reminded me of the humor from the original series that got me addicted.

I was way too irritated with how Clannad After Story ended that I didn't really find this episode funny, let alone appreciate that Kyou got some of the spotlight. I agree with NoteDhero, this was an episode too cater to the Kyoufags and nothing more.

I really liked this episode. It was a chance to end the season on a funny note. I also liked seeing how even though Nagisa and Tomoya to have interacted in some way and not even really notice each other. Then, only a few years later they're married and have a kid. It was also nice to see Tomoya and his "I just don't care" attitude. It shows how much Nagisa changed him (putting those five years aside, of course).

Next week looks like a recap. I'm interested to see how they'll go about packing a two season series into one episode.

Poor Nagisa, but it was cute.
I enjoyed this episode a lot; it felt like I was back in the first seasons of Clannad, with all the jokes and whatnot. I was happy to see more of Kyou. During the first season I she wasn't much of a favorite to me, but I really like her character now for some reason... must be those stockings.

A blushing Kyou is the best Kyou. <3
