Did you ever heard "Real Men Shed Tears" ? YES!! I'M A REAL MAN!!! >_> *cough* anyways, back to what I was going to post... Once again, I loved this episode of Clannad! Poor Nagisa... I feel bad for her having to repeat her senior year without tomoya, plus the drama club has been disbanded because the advisor is retiring... I was a little disappointed with the Botan scene... not because I didn't like it, it was hilarious, but because they left out the full part of it from the Visual Novel: Botan actually ends up farting and the whole class ends up thinking its Tomoya, who can't say it's the "doll", which ends up farting yet again, and eventually the teacher sends him to the bathroom... I cracked up at this part in the VN... Toilet-humor FTW! I haven't seen anything in the After Story section of the VN (still not very far into the VN yet), so I'm hoping for some amazing episodes yet to come, as everyone says they are. Episode rating: uhmm... there is no button for inifinity on this keyboard, so uhm... 5/5 I guess... |
 |
| That was a pretty sad episode, especially since Nagisa reminded me of a friend I had, he was ill and it took him awhile to get through college but in the end he was able to pull it off, I hope the same happens in this. |

Sheepdude said: yakyuu-addict said: The episode was good, not as good as other episodes, but still good. The birthday party and graduation moments were nice. At least Nagisa will go into this year having some friends unlike last year. Loved the Botan doll part. Thanks for reminding me! I wanted to point out that in the game, Botan lets out a fart during class and Tomoya is forced to take the fall for it! Here's the script: Those were the original lines.They are good. On a different note I admitted i did cry a little.. Nice episode.. |
 |
| Ahaha, I kinda wish that I hadn't seen the movie now. Even though I watched the movie and played the game, I bet that I'm still going to tear up during the episodes to come. And since Sylpheed told me to use the spoiler tag for people who haven't watched the movie... |
 |
| I love it when i clannad is released, I get all warm and fuzzy inside. - Yay more Kyou! - Yay Botan's doll trick! I lol'ed at this when it was done in Kyou's route in the clannad game, so it was great to see it animated. THE END... man that was powerful. The music was so moving, the animation fantastic, the nagisa montage wonderful... it just works. there is nothing that flaws this anime when it is at its best, and the end was powerful and emotional. this anime better not end. |
     |
| beautiful.. beautiful.. and sad too... i love this episode.. wohoo... |
     |
| If all the spoilers I read thus far are correct, I think we will getting into the After Story part now. *sigh* More tear-jerking Clannad episodes to come, yay! I liked this episode pretty much. Although Tomoya annoyed me from time to time (okay, your girlfriend can't graduate. Be glad you can, so you can get a good job and support her...), Nagisa was beyond cute, especially the times she wanted to hold hands with Tomoya. |
| uh oh...i sense imminent death flag :( i hope i'm wrong though. damn those flashbacks were sad. it's a good thing it was quick, or i would've cried in another clanad episoide yet again. actually i haven't just a couple of tears in most of the last es of each arc. but if this continues on... i am a bit perplexed as to what the plot will be now that many of you say after story has just begun and the fact that there are still 15 episodes left. maybe half of that will explain that girl and junk character?(but im pretty bored with those segments :( ) i hope it still delivers a powerful ending like the first season |
 |
| Whoa, why hello there time jump. Looks like stuffs starting to get a little serious, but I guess this is where we don't see too much more of the crew from here on out. I'm looking forward to the next couple of episodes. |
| Now this is the Anime I fell in Love with ^_^ |
| Go Watch Sumomo momo Its epic. It has not gotten much attention... Episode 1 http://www.veoh.com/videos/v83597095dreGdW#comments  |
| Does this mean we won't be seeing anymore of the rest of the girls? What, with all the graduating and goodbyes. Hopefully not, that'd be too sad T_T Besides, their still shown as main characters in the OP... Either way, I loved this one. So sad...And finally they finally start to act like a couple! Took them long enough. Please don't have the same ending as the movie, I beg of you. |
| I will seriously break down and cry if nagisa dies in the series like she did in the anime... maybe not so much if the two of them have a child like they did in the movie, idk - i havent even gotten to the point where the drama club is started in the VN x_x... btw, if someone could send me a PM with a yes or no as to if they have a child in the VN (like they did in the movie), that's one of very few spoilers I would really like to know instead of waiting to find out... don't ask why, I honestly am not sure myself XD... but please, send me a message, don't post it here in the forums - that's not nice for everyone else who wants to find out on their own (because even though I don't like spoilers... I just can't seem to keep away from those shiny, silvery "Spoiler" buttons.... hmmm... :D) EDIT: yeah, after some thought after my current scene in the VN... I'm revising this decision... please don't spoil it for me XD I just got Tomoya to ask her to be his gf ^_^ |

It's just that the plot will focus more on Nagisa x Tomoya, while other characters would be degraded to the supporting ones... I think :P |

H-game... so... I don't really feel the need to play that cuz it probably has no storyline, and nothing but "extreme fanservice"... that's just not worthy of Clannad imo...) but that's highly unlikely... unless *begins to weep silently* nagisa does end up dying, and tomoya ends up with tomoyo at the very end... that, I doubt I could enjoy, however... |

Are you kidding me? I saw that thing called Clonnad. Just puked :D~~~~~~~~~~ I was like WTF is this porn? What is this? The story gets kind of like with real people of Clannad and then you know porn? WTF? Man Japan better stop making stupid anime imitations or adult stuff. It kind of gives a bad name to the anime. Right? I deleted that crappy file and should not wasted my time for this but i was curious. Going back to the episode I can't wait to see the new appartment in #10 where Nagisa and Okazaki will live! :D :D |

He is just fated to be with Nagisa only! (Tomoyo, go to hell!) ^^ Yes, I loved that OVA of the first season! but... yeah, I see what you mean with them not fitting together... but hey, watch what you say about my second favorite girl on clannad *growls* (Kotomi is #1 for me ^_^ she's smart, weird, and somewhat obnoxious... I can relate XD) btw, just thought I would share this with everyone for no apparent reason other than the fact that it has become my #1 favorite scene in the Clannad Visual Novel up to the point that I have gotten:  PS. the response was "Please... take care of me..." |
| |
| For the first time ever I liked Nagisa, and right when the main story final continues lol. I was sad at the quick animated and short Kyou scenes. Her saying move on made me really feel bad for her lol. Always love the soundtrack too. |
 |
| Dear lord, that was emotional. After Story here we come! (Armed with tissues of course). |

swiftdeathsk said: but hey, watch what you say about my second favorite girl on clannad *growls* (Kotomi is #1 for me ^_^ she's smart, weird, and somewhat obnoxious... I can relate XD) So you tell Tomoya x Kotomi would fit? No chances, at least in my opinion. It would seem to me as "retarded child's abuse" (while you're praising Kotomi, you actually have to admit she's behaving like a not-so-bright child; therefore she is not suitable to be engaged in any kind of "serious" relationship, for we don't know if she would be serious about it. If you watched Kanon [and I bet you did], you can compare her to younger version of Makoto short before you-know-what.). I don't mean any offence - they just don't fit together too :P |
ModrzewDec 2, 2008 2:18 PM
| actually, i never meant to imply that i think tomoya x kotomi would work... i just meant that kotomi is my favorite character, with tomoyo being my second... and, sorry to the starfish fans, fuuko in dead last (she just annoys me... sorry if this offends anyone; and woop-de-friggin-doo, I'm about to start fuuko's arc in the VN x_x)... kotomi would, despite the fact that I think she's awesome, definately need some "mental reconstruction" before actively engaging in a serious relationship... but she's not retarded -.- she just has a form of mental illness caused by her parent's death during her childhood (btw, I have a bunch of mental disorders, which could also be considered - in fact one is - a mental illness), she's basically surpressed part of her brain... at least this is how I have come to see it; this isn't exactly abnormal for something similar to this to happen in real life. It's a psychological thing, is what I'm saying. A self-defense mechanism... Hmm... I should really consider taking Psychology in college XD I find this stuff enjoyable ^_^.... and actually, I'm only on ep 6 of Kanon... been focusing on my "main" anime (clannad and R+V, as well as Fate/Stay Night), and haven't watched the next ep yet. It's high on my list of things to do :P PS. no offense taken ;) |
| |
| Kotomi is also one of my favourites, though I can't stand her character (for I can't stand children in general ^^') Whatever the reason might be, you still have to admit she behaves like a small child - it might be because of her mental disorder, self-defense mechanism or something else; we can do nothing but speculate. The only moment I enjoyed her behaviour was when Tomoya reminded himself of their common past - that's Kotomi I like and respect. swiftdeathsk said: and actually, I'm only on ep 6 of Kanon... been focusing on my "main" anime (clannad and R+V, as well as Fate/Stay Night) My deepest apologies for spoiling :S You'll soon find out what I meant.

In fact, I just finished my first character's route of the game :D, it was Koumori-sensei How I managed to cry during this route is beyond me... but I still got teary-eyed... How do you do that, Clannad? I must know! Well, First Light has been obtained! If i remember right, there's 13 lights, so I have another 12 lights to go before seeing the After Story arc x_x... this is gonna take awhile! |

| Whoops. Forgot to make a comment about this episode. I liked it a lot since we're moving to the main plot now. I just hope that Kyoto Animation doesn't mess up and do something that Toei Animation (Jesus Nonexistent Christ, I hate that company) would do. Also I like the new song for the preview now, it's very compelling. Lastly, the Choir Club girls have been showing up in the anime outro's for quite some time now and they don't even show up in the story. Sheesh I hate it when stuff like that happens. |

| This episode goes into my favourite list. Very very beautiful, yet without over-dramatic angst or plot, just a very simple relationship between two people who are in love. The main plot aside, I was really happy to see Botan again. Her appearance was sadly little in the after-story and this made me rather sad since I'm a big fan of Botan. I keep praying that nothing permanently bad happens to any of characters. ..And a toilet seat cover. |

| i'm assuming kotomi won't have much screen time now... sigh... nice sign picture wonpie_ |

 |
| wow nice episode. nigasa had better not die btw. fuck i hate the movie for that. |
| awww poor nagisa has to repeat again... was a cute episode though and liked seeing the old man some more hes just made of cool I like that the dad talked some sense into him as well wouldve been annoying for him to repeat high school cause whoever he would do that for should get hurt and mad at/cause of him |
| i wonder if this is an arc or something... |
| It has begun, but NOO I don't want it to start T_____T |
| Great episode, we get to see what the other characters want to do in the future, and the final memories of the senior year (Most memorable year). It was sweet that Tomoya always stayed with Nagisa while she was sick and always worried for her well-being, also that Tomoya's friend were also worried not only for Nagisa but also for Tomoya's happiness. That christmas/Nagisa's birthday was a great moment because it showed Nagisa how important she is to the people around her (They really are like a family). The graduation was like the real life experience in the sense that when one graduates the people around you all celebrate for your successes, you spend time with good friends, and say your goodbyes to old (friends/teachers/or other friends in other grades), although it's a bye, you are sure to meet them again. It was nice how Nagisa was waiting outside the bakery to walk and hold hands with Tomoya to the very end of the episode. |
 |
| This episode was simply too beautiful! I've never seen a simple hand held moment be so touching in any series. Tomoya confessing his worries and sadness to Nagisa as the Dango song played softly on the piano in the background was so emotional as well. Tomoya and Nagisa should go down in history as one of the best anime couples ever! |
  |
| I found her getting sick out of nowhere rather od and out of place. I just started the game itself, so I'm nowhere near ending it, but... the graduation is over, now exactly what starts up? |
| Crap, so it begins... ;__; |
 |
| Does anyone know which album the version of "A Palm of a Small Hand" from this episode is from? It's an piano arrangement I've never heard before. *edit* Oh, I was so wrong. The song is actually an arrangement of Nagisa's theme, which contains the melody for Palm. It's the ninth track on the Memento album, titled "Nagisa:Parting at the Foot of the Hill" Warm Piano Arrange" What an epic song it is... |

swiftdeathsk said: I don't really feel the need to play that cuz it probably has no storyline, and nothing but "extreme fanservice"... that's just not worthy of Clannad imo...) Completely wrong. Tomoyo After most certainly has a story, and from what I understand, a pretty good one at that. Just the fact that it's an eroge does not mean that it doesn't have a plot. Also, it was re-released on the PS2 with all the "questionable" content removed, and with a somewhat extended ending. For the record, both Kanon and Air were originally eroge as well, yet they've both got an extremely well-written story. |
| Oh my God. This one has been one of the best episodes I have seen in my whole "anime life". |
  |
| I feel better for Nagisa x Tomoya as a couple now, prior to the last few episodes and particularly after the last season ended I hated them as a couple. I seriously thought the Tomoyo and Okazaki pairing would be way better, all of thats changed now. Awesome episode, loved it. |

| I seriously believe that the relationship between Tomoya and Nagisa is one of the best, if not the best, relationships i've ever seen in Anime. I mean, think about it, both of them became better people in some way because of one another. It also amazes me how strong she can be sometimes. Beautiful stuff. I can already tell, i'm going to enjoy the hell out of After Story. I have a feeling we won't be seeing much of Kyou, Sunohara, and the others.. that sucks. |

| Nooo I don't want to see Kotomi, Kyou, Ryou and Sunohara leave. I liked them all together, if they're gone it will be sad :( |
 |
| NOOO, NAGISA HAS TO REPEAT AGAIN? NOOOO I bet she's going to meet another guy like Tomoya when she repeat. XD Love Triangle wooot! |
| Oh no the school part is over. honestly it makes me so sad ; ( What is Nagisas mysterious illnes? " I have a weak body" is such a lame excuse when you have no parasitic diseases. Are there no capable doctors in japan? |
