Lol. All the girls this episode are like. "SHIT. WE LOST."

Don't like Nagisa at all --'

Kind of agree. It's not that I don't like her; she's probably more close to a real person than most of the other girls. She's just kind of boring. Or rather, my interest in her has waned because the show spent so long on focusing on other characters. In which case I blame it on the direction, not Nagisa's character.

I either completely forgot or just didn't realize that Tomoyo's arc was only two episodes long and merged with the Fujibayashis' arc. WHY WAS BEST GIRL DELEGATED TO USELESS SIDE HOE???

This episode is perfection. Tomoyo's story moved me far more this time around and really got me thinking about my attitude back when I was around her age at that time too.

Ah the tennis scene. Truly an unforgettable moment. Shedding tears of joy and heartbreak at the same time. I'm happy beyond words when watching Nagisa and Tomoya, but my heart sank when Kyou and Ryou had to face defeat. I do like Tomoyo's response though, two and two click together and she sees that Nagisa is Tomoya's "family" that she mentioned earlier.

(RE-WATCHING) So this was the episode where the Tomoyo / Kyou / Ryou arc ends. I have to say, the merging of 2 arcs was done very well, and I love how all of the characters came to realise that none of them could come close to Nagisa. It was a very happy but sad episode. EDIT: I think Nagisa is getting too much hate. She's very sweet, kind and adorable. I prefer Tomoyo, but Nagisa works very well with Tomoya.

So I guess we won't be having Ryou x Kyou arc afterall? And what about Misae (she's at least hinted) or Yukine (was she ditched from this adaptations? Tomoyo's episode was nice (even though many things like Tomoya's house visit and ending ship sinking were anime-only material) and I think it actually flow pretty nicely.

Anyone interested in her own story I honestly recommend you reading Tomoyo After as that novel is in some parts even better than whole Clannad. And now I really wonder how they manage to sustain all those rejected characters relevant to the story. Well, I guess Nagisa is getting her theatre episodes now.

That was really sweet of Tomoyo telling the significance of a Family ~.
Kyou and Ryou are both really lovely to be with but Tomoya has his own pick .
Very Great Episode ~ . Anyway, This is Romance after all ~ . Genre Type .

That tennis scene!! Awesome one of my favorite scene of anime! NagisaxOkazaki is so great and without nothing said the situation gets clearer than ever -> kinda reminds me of Toradora, for the big love triangle and the characters who understand things implicitly (I know its not that rare, but I think that its pretty well done in those two anime, because for both anime around those episodes the main couple gets more real and the other have to step back and become only friends, the separation between the couple and their friends is in both nicely done)

Funny that for Kyou/Ryou and Tomoyo 's arc they needed Nagisa to be absent x) she is so much already like his girlfriend that if she is around nothing is possible for the three others; unlike Fuko and Kotomi who liked Okazaki as a friend then Nagisa's presence wasn't an obstacle at all, on the contrary.

Sorry for Tomoyo,kyou and ryou- your days are over once Nagisa has back!!! And it jas shown very well in this episode!!! How happy Tomoya is when Nagisa back from school. And by the way that tennis scene where he helped Nagisa when she was hit by the ball was the CONFIRMATION, the look in the eys of sisters Kyou and ryou upon seeing that they just cry because they knew they loss already. And same thing to tomoya amidst having that win...

*anyways that lunch scene is great!!! Having a harem life is a winner!!!

I love how this anime unexpectedly takes a 'dark' turn. Kyou's backstory is painful and it broke my heart. Realising that things don't 'click' at home anymore is not easy. It was painful to see that Kyou felt like a bad sister because she had turn wild and could not make her little brother smile. He is adorable though and it was good to see that he did make it... I am sure that Okazaki could relate to her story on a personal level.

Well this episode ended on a somewhat lighter note. Seeing Kyou and Ryou cry like that together was touching though. And I am worried about Nagisa. Can't wait for more!

Kyo and Ryo in broken heart. It's sad to see them crying, but Kyoto animation succsessfully put the "bargain of arcs" story in order.
Holy shit I know. This is my forst rewatch of the series and Ive played some of the game sinnce then. I'm just freaking floored at how they managed to tie all the arcs together and give us enough of each of them to be satisfied, but still bring it all to a impactful resolution. The end when everyone realizes he and nagisa are a thing is just madturfully sad. I do like that they have a bit of self awareness of the situation of everyone liking him being a little ridiculous. That being the lunch scene, where Fuko almost enters to satire the whole situation even further

Well, in the end it seems it wasn't really a good idea to combine two routes (or three?) into one storyline.
Tomoyo's "heavy" backstory ended up being quite superficial due to time constraints and honestly, seeing Kyou trying to set things up for her extremely indecisive sister was more annoying than anything.

That's some nice drama there.

And there's Kotomi be like "wtf is going on? Why are ya'll crying suddenly?" lol


Wait, this is the last of both Kyou and Tomoyo's arc? That's only like 3 episodes.

While both Fuko and Kotomi have 5 episodes each.

Quite a nice bit of development this episode, though I'm surprised that this was also the one which concluded Tomoyo's arc. You'd think she would occupy the rest of the season with her presidential campaign and delinquent backstory, but I guess we need to dedicate the rest of the season to Nagisa. On that subject, I think I agree with everyone else about Nagisa. Maybe the final five episodes and all of After story will transform my opinion of her, but I've always thought Tomoya had way better chemistry with Kyou.

This episode is also significant for being the first time this show actually made me laugh. That baseball scene between Sunohara and Tomoyo was great. Props to KyoAni for landing one joke out of 500.

Also, rest in peach to Ryou. She was never the best character, but she forever has my sympathy for getting cucked into oblivion.

I love it when Tomoya and Nagisa is getting along each other, and I feel bad for the rejected one I've seen a lot of those fake smile there.

And Fuuko show up again and still have no explanation on why they are able to see her so I think she's dead and a ghost probably it kinda reminds me of Anohana so it's probably like that I guess.

I thought Tomoyo is much better girl for Tomoya. This episode proves it by giving a light to her a backstory and some dedication for Tomoya. Interesting the other girls realization and break down at the same time. No more rivalries for love anymore.

Dude, what are you doing, that's where you are supposed to carry her princess style.

Poor Kyou and Ryou, you should never fall in love with the main guy if it's not your route.

You can’t force feelings. They are meant to be, it’s so sweet seeing how much Okazaki cares for Nagisa. What a guy.

Tomoyo is awesome!! I would have such a girl crush on her too. She’s so cool. And even when she realised why Okazaki was so serious about the theatre club, she was so understanding. Same to Kyou & Ryou, with Ryou apologising to her sister & being grateful for how much Kyou has done for her. They are all so sweet.

Kotomi is the cutest loooool I laughed when Okazaki reached out to her hoping she would rescue him when they were all insisting that he ate their food. She was like nope bruh lol







but i’ll probably remember over and over again
you were there and everyone else was there

Okay, Tomoyo's backstory didn't matter to me, except the fact her brother jumped.
Got 1+ point for clannad making me laugh in the last forever.

Those last few minutes was what made me enjoy this episode~
This is one of the better episodes I've watched from Clannad (by enjoyment specifically).

Imagine being a spectator for that tennis match and see two girls just start bursting into tears. I'd be like 'wtf is up with that', and start laughing lol. A tad to dramatic of an ep for me, and a backstory that comes out of nowhere. Oh well. Ep Score - 4/10

I think Tomoyo and every other girl realized Nagisa is endgame. NGL this is the first scene since Fuko's story to almost make me cry. I relate to not ending up with the person you have a crush on. It's not the unnecessarily sad background stories that get you. It's those relatable moments. Also, Kotomi is cute as heck.

I mean come on. There was never any question in my mind as to who Tomoya would choose.

I liked the first few eps and the focus on Nagisa so I hope they focus on that again.

The ending scene with Nagisa and Okazaki was cute, him protecting her without thinking. Finally some fucking chemistry between, what is supposed to be, the lead romance. I feel bad for the other girls but at least they wont be led on anymore. I hope we get to see more of Nagisa's family because her parents actually make me laugh.

I still think Tomoyo is best girl. She didnt get a chance though with how little screentime she has.
