| Well that was something.. i couldn't stand that part when she got tossed out like trash i admit they did good on this arc despite leaving out stuff which made me enjoy it a lot in the VN verdict is both are good just have their pros and cons and it comes down to preference i liked the VN slightly better still managed to get a tad teary. Kud next week so will Anego be the final if they even keep it in :( |
 |
| the anime adaptation was pretty well done for it's constraints but i enjoyed the vn much more. though yes i do agree that forgiving kanata was much easier in the anime. |

kenshin_sama said: Okay, that was unexpectedly great. What the anime achieved is something that the visual novel could not, it made me forgive Kanata at the end. What the adaption lost with Haruka's character, they more than made up for her sister and I really like this. Final opinion for Haruka's arc: Anime > Visual Novel. Nicely done J.C. Staff! I completely agree with you on that one. The arc started on a low note, but it ended on the highest note of the series, I think. Also, not only is Haruka's sister better portrayed here, but so is their father. |

| Best episode so far, good job! |
| I'm feeling thank you |
| Great episode to wrap up Haruka's arc. This route being one of my favorites from the Visual Novel. This was noticeable done well by J.C. Staff. They still cut out a chunk from her route, but it's pretty much insignificant if it were to cram and fit into this 26 season of Little Busters! This episode has it's emotional moments, and sure hits you. And I'm glad to hear that the OST "Faraway" is being played in those moments. Kud's route next. Kinda interested to see which Ending they would use for her, and how many episodes she will get before they wrap up this season of Little Busters. Surprise me, J.C. Staff. |
 |
| Probably my favorite episode so far. Great conclusion to the interesting and somewhat emotional arc. Looking forward to the next arc! |

| The way they have been cutting out of the routes it seems like they won't be having a season 2. |
 |
| Nice conclusion, and RAGE to the Saigusa family for throwing a kid like that! This is one of my favorite episodes so far! |

Probably one for each route, and maybe and extended one for Kud because she has her own game. |

| Despite the LB flaws I have been describing over and over, I started to ignore all those and focus onto my fav route. Haruka's route never fails to amaze me. The emotion is still there untouched and the fact that you can actually see Kanata's emotions during the revelation just makes it even better imo than the VN. Overall, great adaptation to this route. |
 Almost right. |
| Ahhh.. so beautiful.. I love Haruka's arc! ;__; Her realization that you shouldn't hate anyone, and that no one is evil is very significant to me. I actually relate to Haruka quite a lot.. thinking I was useless and everyone hated me and such.. that's probably why her route appeals to me so much. I also really love her as a character. ^__^ Looking forward to Kud's arc!~ <3 WAFUUU! |
| best arc yet. kud route next. FUCK |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| This episode was freaking great! That scene where Haruka made up with Kanata really pulled on my heart strings. Overall, it's almost a perfect conclusion to Haruka's arc. Not sure how VN readers feel about it though. It's just a shame the anime adaptation took as long as it did before it got this good... |
 |
| This needs a special mention in this thread. |

Funya-Usagi said: also, any ideas why Mio didn't answer her phone? i can't find the reason why they would add that bit I dont know if you have played the VN but if you did, you would understand why they added that part DONT CLICK SPOILER IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED THE VN |
| This episode had the best animation on the whole anime so far! Loved it! I hated how they changed the story, since in the game (if I recall correctly), Haruka was living with her real parents (except Saigusa Shou, of course), while in the anime, it is heavily implied that she still lives with the Saigusa family. Other than that, I'm also sad that they cut some parts of the rain scene and didn't make Shou as badass as in the game. Next is Kuddo! Can't wait! |
| Can someone explain to me if the father started that fire or was he framed and sent to jail? or if it was something completely different? |
 |
 Kyouske turned to kengo and is like mother fucker! i know you want to hold our hands! before you regret that shit later on! and cry about how unhappy your life is... please bitch... |

Not sure how VN readers feel about it though. It's just a shame the anime adaptation took as long as it did before it got this good... A most perfect description of how I feel about this episode. Best LB episode AINEC. I will however say that Kanata was the star of this anime arc. The parts where I felt were weakest were the ones where Haruka is seen confronting her problems outside of fighting and struggling against Kanata. Kanata on the other hand was handled phenomenally from the beginning of the arc. There is a lot of things I felt JC Staff has done poorly up until this point but Kanata's whole persona and the aura she exuded was done to the highest of standards IMO. |
| Wow, great episode. Also, that throwing scene made me feel bad. |
| I was expecting something really awesome out of the rain scene, considering what it looks like in the promotional video. The episode felt a little rushed and melodramatic. Still, Haruka's arc doesn't fall too far from Mio's arc for me. I'd actually consider this both Haruka and Kanata's arcs. Kanata really is the star of these three episodes. Haruka shines once, and that is with her fantastic outfit at the end. |
| So far it feels like this adaption is being handled a lot better than the first Clannad series. Can't wait to see Refrain overthrow Afterstory! |
| Well, that is definitely a great episode. But it's still litereally made my jaw dropped the entire time. While i think the episode is rushed compared to the VN(Yeah, yeah i know i shouldn't really compare this to the VN) it still manages to entertain me. A LOT. |
| Wow..... kud favoritism right there... So in episode 19 a part of kuds route.... Then common route... Fucking Zazami and hitting cat that bitch... then back into kuds route... |
kenshin_sama said: So far it feels like this adaption is being handled a lot better than the first Clannad series. Can't wait to see Refrain overthrow Afterstory! Eh?? I never read Visual Novel for Clannad so I can't say, but I think Clannad first season was really well done. I blame KyoAni for top tier animation. IMO Refrain would overthrow Afterstory, but that would have to determine how how J.C Staff does it. The lack godly Animation and art will make people have lower scores. (We all know this to be true.) |

Tasuku- said: This was my favorite arc's conclusion episode, also this was the first time I'm actually almost crying watching a LB's episode. When Kanata starting crying was T_________T That scene took me off guard. Damn, poor girl D: My favorite arc to the moment, I'm looking forward to the next!! 5/5 Yeah same here. that was so dread :S |
ChristelleXhie said: These people who are sayin Refrain adaptation will beat After story adaptation are seriously kidding themselves on Kanon level sure but on Clannad level I totally doubt it this Haruka arc adaptation is still nowhere from Clannad level but i'll agree on Kanon level |
| Rushed, but it is still so good. 5/5 for me. JC Staff should have exerted this amount of effort from the beginning of the series instead. It certainly took them a while. This arc adaptation made me more excited in seeing Refrain's adaptation :> |
| Haruka's route is the best imo. JC Staff did a fine job even though it was rushed. I want to read the EX routes D: |
 |
| So who was whose daughter? I still want to know. |
 |
| Still don't know who her father is |
| Awesome meolodrama...... 3/5 |
 |

Yup The Tears came while watching this episode. Its too bad I was hoping to see who was the criminal's daughter but Oh well anyways glad to see it end in a good way... |
| i never got into the VN, im going to assume we never find out who the father is there either |
| It's kind of weird to see my own quotes in two different people's signatures on the same page ._. I don't dislike it at all though Sunyko said: Still don't know who her father is the point is kind of she's now past that, and there's no need for her to know anymore. Because it doesn't matter who her father is, She has her two fathers, her mother, and her sister. planetarian said: Wow..... kud favoritism right there... So in episode 19 a part of kuds route.... Then common route... Fucking Zazami and hitting cat that bitch... then back into kuds route... You don't see anyone else with a After game made just for them, except Sakagami. And they need to make a Lucia After. Actually they need to make a Shizuru after because Shizuru route utterly sucked. So much I felt bad for her as a heroine, because I actually genuinely liked her in the common route. |

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
