| The pacing of this show is so damn slow.. I couldn't handle watch 2 eps in dub (dub is easier for me to handle slow pacing shows) so is there any reason that I have to watch? Also is there a manga of clannad? I can handle slow pacing manga better.. So can I or no? Btw you can give me all the spoil that you want lol.. spoil makes me more interest on watching (thats how I started watching naruto.. madara arc <3) |
| I wouldn't recommend to honestly. Your going to miss out on some important scenes and characters. I know the beginning is slow but it picks up half way. |

Can you give a major selling point? Use the spoil tag so mods dont remove the comment.. maybe with a little of spoil will make me watch it |
| No. You'll miss out on so much if you skip on the initial character development. and Clannad is a visual novel originally, you can play it instead if you want, it's just as good but there's no manga equivalent |
  |
| there's really no point in watching After Story if you haven't watched the first series.. the reason after story is so famous is because of all the build up in the first series.. don't miss it.. its an epic tale.. :) |
Get lost in the art that is anime/manga... :3 |
| Long answer: nope. Short answer: no. |
| The first season is necessary so that you will feel attached to the characters. Afterstory won't have much impact if you don't watch the first season. |

| do yourself a favor and drop dub version force yourself if you have to through season 1 then prepare some manly tissue for manly tears for season 2 trust me.. it's worth it |

I like romantic genre but clannad has a pace issue.. Not really, it's just you. Besides, skipping something to get to the good part is kind of dumb. It's like skipping the introductory arc of Bleach and skipping straight to Soul Society. You miss a lot of important details and whatnot. |
| And I mean that in the most sexually painful way possible. |
| I cried more in Clannad than I did in Clannad: After Story, so I dunno. Maybe Clannad just isn't for you? Then again, you'd never know through the first two episodes alone. I watched it dubbed, BTW. |

| I question whether sitting through the horrendous first season is worth it. I dropped season 1 after 10 episodes because I couldn't take it any more. I don't see an issue with going straight for season 2; neither of the characters get development anyway, especially not Nagisa |

| Eh...nope you shouldn't for all the reasons listed above. |
| Skip to episode 19. I'm being merciful fanbois. But just be ready that After Story will still be this same Slice of Life snoozefest for its first 9 episodes, then finally it gets going and for those 11 episodes and the disappointment that awaits you at the end this is your "masterpiece"! because "muh feeeelz" |
 |
| No, I would list reasons, but people already said those reasons. |
| Ha. Ha. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. I'm laughing because you got hurt. |
| Don't ditch the Dub!!! Hillary Haag as Fuko, Luci Christian as Nagisa, Andrew Love as Akio. . . They're all really treall yreALLY good! |
"Fuck this shit, fun things are fun!" |
| You can, but I would seriously reconsider watching it. I like clannad a lot (almost all of it, visual novel, music and anime) to me skipping clannad is not an option. However I don't know your motives for wanting to watch after story. After story (the latter half of the After story season which is probably the part you're interested in where you "feel sad", "get the feels", etc etc, is the part I like least. After reading clannad, after story didn't present me with my favourite scenario. Clannad offers arguably ~~6 heroines, I like all of them, but some more than others. Clannad offers arcs for some heroines and After story offers other arcs. Skipping either, means skipping content. You can and it's totally up to you. I compare it to skipping film 1 of lord of the rings and only watching frodo related scenes in film 2 and 3. Yes, you'll get to see the important parts which conclude what will happen to the ring, but wouldn't you also enjoy the other scenes? |

| Skip both and watch pupa. |

| Clannad is utter shit. Skip it, watch Angel Beats unless you have. |
| Nope |

| You can, cause in the end of After Story "they" will tell you Clannad main events/things, but I suggest you to watch bots series |
