Clannad Movie

Tomoya Okazaki is a cynical delinquent who lacks ambition as he apathetically labors through high school. During his childhood, a tragedy had caused his father to seek solace in alcoholism and neglect his son. Yet, meaningful human interaction can be a benediction, as Tomoya learns when he meets the enigmatic Nagisa Furukawa. The odd girl offers a gesture of friendship to Tomoya, but he rejects the request, dismissing it as a trivial incident. However, as he soon realizes that he is encountering Nagisa more and more often during school, Tomoya drops his discompassions and befriends the girl.

When he learns that Nagisa's dream is to revive the Drama Club, Tomoya decides to shed his detachment from the ordinary pleasures of life and dedicate himself to helping his new friend achieve her ambition. But what starts as a simple friendship may progress into something far more deep, intimate, and life-changing. As the pair face various hardships and afflictions, Tomoya and Nagisa gradually come to terms with the challenges of life.

Remember Clannad? Ever thought the drama was too forced and the ending was too lame? Well this might be for you...

Animation: 7

I honestly can't tell if this movie was made in 2007 or 1977 at times, the directing is so old-school that it harkens back to the days of Tohoscope flicks such as Mystery of Mamo and Golgo 13. Not that I'm complaining.

Story: 6/10

Delinquent duo Tomoya Okazaki and Youhei Sunohara are two down on their luck poor sods dealt a bad hand at high school until they meet the main heroine of the VN, Nagisa Furukawa. From there we get a sweet movie about ... these two helping her perform a solo play at the school festival. What I like most about this movie is Sunohara's character. Somehow he has more depth than in the TV anime and feels like an actual real person.

Style: 6

More style than whatever zoomer crap is being made today, that's for sure. Though it may feel 30 years older than it actually is.

Overall: 7

This movie is an okay retelling of Clannad, but no substitute for the original story. I recommend either starting with the TV anime or VN and then watching this movie for the amazing Sunohara and Okazaki bro moments.

It's the kind of story that hits you right in the feels and makes you appreciate the people in your life. And while it may not be the most original story out there, it's executed with such skill and care that it's hard not to be swept up in its emotional currents. So for story, I'm giving Clannad a solid 8/10.

Now, onto the art style. ... Wow, this anime is beautiful! The colors are vibrant, the animation is smooth, and the character designs are charming and distinct in thats year. It's the kind of art style that you can't help but fall in love with. So for art style, I'm giving Clannad a 9/10.

Let's talk about the three main characters: Tomoya, Nagisa, and Ushio. These three are the heart and soul of Clannad, and they're all incredibly well-developed and likable. Tomoya is a lovable slacker with a heart of gold, Nagisa is a kind and determined girl with a love for the theater, and Ushio is just the cutest little thing you'll ever see. So for the characters, I'm giving Clannad a 8/10.

The voices perfectly capture the emotions of the characters and bring them to life in a way that makes you feel like you're right there with them. So for voice over, I'm giving Clannad a 8/10.

Let's not forget about the music. The score in Clannad is simply beautiful, with haunting melodies that will stay with you long after the movie is over. It's the kind of music that sets the mood perfectly and enhances the emotional impact of the story. So for music, I'm giving Clannad a 9/10.

So there you have it, folks! Clannad is a beautiful, emotional anime that's definitely worth watching. With a score of 7.9/10, it's not perfect, but it's darn close. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch it again and cry my eyes out. Until next time, keep watching and keep feeling!

tl;dr: If you came here after finishing Clannad: After Story, dont bother watching this movie. If you came here not having watched Clannad yet at all: Don't even think about watching this yet. This movie differs hugely from it's in 2 season divided counterpart and not in any good way.

Though I said this I know I probably can't stop a Clannad fan from watching this movie. I read multiple reviews of this movie saying the same as me but oh well, here I am. I want to keep this review short really and give you a little list with what I think this movie does ... better and (even more important) worse than the show:

1. (-) Some characters are completely different to a point where you can't even recognise them anymore from the show; for example Nagisa is WAY too confident in her theatre skit.
2. (-) The content of Season 1 is being dealt with in 1h 10min in the movie, content of Season 2 only takes up about 20min which is quite sad since the most emotional moments were in Season 2.
3. (-) Cruicual moments were left out which yes, is obvious in a movie of this length but they were so important for the story in the series and the topics it dealt with that it just shows that Clannad's story can simply not be packed into a 1h 30min movie.
4. (-) Toei "animation" moments, including repeating the same animated sequences again and again after each other for no reason (who directed this lmao) and adding as many pointless blur effects as possible without any reason to do so (you wanna get me dizzy watching this? xD)
5. (-) Soundtrack is worse, the version of the dango song in the movie made me mad, I need the one from the show, it's much cuter.

1. (+) It's still Clannad, so I had to shed a tear but only because of memories from the series coming up.

Thanks for reading this, I am going to bed.
