Just finished watched Air by Key and i really enjoyed it, just as much as i did with Kanon, but i think i felt a bit more for Kanon than i did with Air. But they were both really good i want to know what you all thought of them if you have seen these great animes.

Clannad is the best of the 3,Kanon is a close 2nd and I would have liked Air much more if it didn't feel so rushed..

I will, i was actually going to watch that first but i thought i would watch these first seeing as they came out before Clannad and the characters look alike.

If you loved Air and Kanon

Do watch Clannad, and especially watch After Story

Air would have been great if it was given as much time as Kanon was, but unfortunately it was so rushed that it's attempts at drama fell really flat. Aside from the confusion, it may of had the best ending of the three though. Kanon has it's moments, and is a much better adaptation than Air, but at the same time I didn't find the characters all that memorable and Yuiichi, despite having the awesome Sugita providing voice work, just wasn't memorable to me.

If you ask my opinion, Clannad is effectively the culmination of everything Key and KyoAni learned during their time with the first two series. The characters, particularly Tomoya and Nagisa, are memorable and the storytelling as a result is much more effective. Not to mention it has one of the better musical scores I've heard. The problem is that there is a sort of repetition between the earlier works and Clannad, though I think Clannad ultimately overcomes this by the time After Story rolls around. To keep it brief, I'd consider it a must watch. Your mileage may vary on the ending, though.

i enjoyed air but i felt like it could have been much better, the ending is what truly made it memorable,

and as everyone said, watch clannad, first season is just good not great but after story is a league of its own

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

i was never really into the drama type lovey dovey mushy gushy sappy romance genre, i torrented clannad and after story awhile back and they just sat on my hard drive for the longest time...but eventually i got bored with what i already had so i gave the series a shot, and to my supprise i actually enjoyed it ALOT! I was told by one of my "otacons" to watch the 2006 version kanon, so i checked that out and low and behold...i fucking loved it. next up really isnt a key production but they helped out alot and that Angel Beats, i dont know if it fits in with the same genre but its just as good. so now im gonna give this 'Air' a shot, im hoping that even tho its only a 13 episode series its as good as the other much longer series clannad or kanon.

Tbh I didn't like Air, it was rather confusing compared to Kannon and Clannad imo.

Well since i created this thread i have watched them all, it really can affect people! Especially when you get in to the story... I hope Key or some other company makes a similar anime again in future how long that will be i have no idea #.#

I think i'll be rewatching Clannad in the future if nothing similar comes along.
