It depresses me knowing that there probably won't be any girl in this world as patient and as understanding as Nagisa. Nagisa, please marry me~! >_<

So your mentor tells you that it's ok he doesn't need you. Yells at you to go see your girl and you still spent the whole day helping him out and standing her up? I get it you feel guilty but you promised the chick and he said it was ok. If anything help him out up until the point of time you're supposed to meet her, go to the fair and treat her right. Instead Nagisa stands alone for hours with some corn and then goes home...wtf? C'mon Okazaki

The "adult store" was awesome!

Why can't they even kiss though? When she stayed later at his place in the last ep., a lot more would have happened if it were even an ecchi. When Tomoya met Nagisa at the festival, he should at least have even hugged her when he said he was sorry.

Okay so yes everything is REAL, but I still can't accept Nagisa being alone (well except for her friends that are still there) and Tomoya being alone, I mean he isn't with his friends anymore. That makes me sad.

I love Nagisa's part when she is with the corn! She really understands Tomoya!
Nice ep that is coming I think

Yoshino-san sure is a kind guy.

And Nagisa's patience and understanding is just pure gold.

It's kinda sad that she's alone in school coz it reminded me of how it feels like to be one.

Good thing I have friends but only few though.

Okazaki's life is just inspiring for a lazy bum like me. I hope I'll learn more.

Clannad is not fulfilling dreams, it's hard like in reality.. that is why it stands out.
Next episode smells rather epic again

For this reason, I think Clannad and Clannad: After Story have become two of my favorites.

Ha! Akio is trying to teach Tomoya about having fun in adulthood and not being so serious ALL THE TIME! Yoshino is trying to teach him to work hard but balance work and home life.

Tomoya is being thick-skulled and not really taking much on board (until the end I hope, next episode he better learn!) while nagisa waits patiently and takes care of him while enduring her lonely school life.

Sniff!

One more great episode. I feel sad for Nagisa for having to wait that long and I truly admire her for the unconditional support she's giving Tomoya. Speaking of Tomoya, he has grown really mature, from a "lazy bum" to a serious hard working guy. I hope he learns the way to balance things out in his life. Damn, they both deserve to be happy.

I was really moved with the scene where Yoshida told Tomoya he had noticed his injury but wouldn't tell anyone. He's a rough guy but a true friend.

No Sunohara, no Kyou, no Tomoya. It's a bit boring without the rest of the gang. I know it's supposed to be slice of life and all, but it's slowing down too much for my taste.

AKIO AND THE OSSAN IN A JEDI SHOWDOWN. EPIC!

Akio and Sanae are the ideal couple. They find time for work, love, parenting, sports, fun and generousity towards everyone. I'm going to strive to be as Gar as Akio. I'd much rather have his lifestyle than Tomoya.

I think if they wanted to do another clannad spin off they could make an entire season as 'out takes' of the practical jokes Akio and Tomoya play on each other LOL

I really don't get why everyone is gushing over the first season. It's not THAT great. And it's very boring as well. With most of season 1, I was very bored. After Story only had a couple of boring episodes, this was one of them. So I can relate to what everyone is saying about it being boring because it really is not the best episode. But I really enjoyed After Story and re-watching it again just shows me how badly the first season went.

A another sweet (I keep using this word and I mean it in the cute sense, not the slang for awesome) ep. I really feel bad for Nagisa and it really is something how she doesn't show any resentment and is soo patient.

Tomoya needs to pay more attention to her! I wish we could at least get a hug out of them already!!

I will have to admit though...this ep was a little boring. The EPIC preview music seems to indicate a great next ep though!

Wow, Clannad is more down to earth than any anime I've seen, ever! Okazaki is struggling with his job, because of his arm. Yoshino noticed that but, good friend as he is, didn't tell anyone because it wouldn't amount to anything. Akio vs. the shop owner in a lightsaber dual was epic! Akio and Tomoya dropping the lizard down Sanae's blouse was awesome too! Poor Nagisa! When she asked Tomoya if he gets lonely when she leaves, I bet she was asking because she feels lonely herself. Yoshino sure does like making talks like that doesn't he? Tomoya missed the festival because of work. When Nagisa Tomoya walking off together at the end was cute! Nagisa acting as if she's Tomoya's wife is so cute! Maybe a proposal will be coming up soon! I shouldn't get that far ahead of myself, they didn't even kiss yet! I LOVE YOU CLANNAD!!!

Okzazki is too inexperienced to realize that he should not have to feel that he has to make a choice, he should try to make a balance between work and having a relationship. That's what many adults attempt to do in real life. Considering that his supervisor was willing to finish the job and his colleagues were willing to replace him, Okzaki should had taken advantage of that. But being a grunt on your first job one feels pressured to prove one's self. He's earnest but it just isn't right. I have the feeling Nagisa's patience is wearing thin.
I have not seen many of this kind of anime ("Slice of Life") but I am really getting into it. And it makes me glad that there are different genres in anime that I can equally appreciate.
I expect something fairly dramatic to happen soon but when it does I think I'll be really upset because I really do like the characters. But in the meantime I am enjoying this.

I got quickly used to the fact that no more school time is shown, although I miss it a little bit now. You know, like the time Tomoya had with Sunohara at his dorm...

But it is quite interesting to see the plot now and Tomoyas life view. :)

I love this episode as it SHOWN WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM MANY ARE FACING RIGHT NOW!!! WORK VS LOVE? im so sure many are related to this one... what to prioritize first , is it our work or the love.

It also shown how it is having a hard time for a couple to have a time at each other because of work related stuff...

REALISTIC EPISODE!!! GREAT!!! can they survive this kind of set up? Hmmm!!! So excited about this one...
