Also when ever I finish an anime even if it ended good I always get pads litterally every time, that being said should I stay away from clannad if it's really as sad as everyone is saying? It is sad but it does have a happy ending. A forced happy ending though. |

I get that at 50ish episodes it's an investment, and people don't want to waste their time on something that they're not going to be satisfied with, but I think the point of watching things is to discover that on your own and determine your own satisfaction, rather than basing it off what others say. If that makes sense. |

| the happy ending is ythe worst thing of the show it makes no sense and just regress character development |
| I'd suggest not watching Clannad and watching something good instead. |

| Honestly couldn't tell ya bc I was too incompetent to process the ending lol |
  |
| It was a pretty funny ending, not sure what you guys are talking about. |
| Yes. Honestly, Clannad is impressive to even HAVE an ending, because most of these types of animes nowadays don't. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| It's a happy ending at all costs. All. Costs. |

| yeah the ending of clannad was happy, and i liked the ending a lot. a lot of events lead up to it, so its not like it came out of nowhere. and it showed the common theme of tomoya accepting, and being able to forgive. |

In my opinion it will depend on how closely you pay attention to bits of information provided along the way, and especially as you near the end. Without catching some of the details along the way, the ending won't make as much sense. If you miss some of the detail near the end, it could feel forced, or simply a WTF just happened moment for you. In my book it's a happy ending, but I can also see how some might not reach the same conclusion. Depending on how empathetic you are you'll likely experience the full range of emotions from Clannad and After Story. Nobody will be able to tell you how you will react to the parts designed to elicit emotions, or how you'll feel once completed, and don't let anybody tell you how you SHOULD react. |
 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
| Imagine playing a video game like Devil May Cry or something similar. And there's a condition that you'll get an extra cut scene at the end if you collect 1000 spirit orbs throughout the game. That's the ending of Clannad. It's a happy ending if you like cheese. |
| My subjective reviews: katsureview.wordpress.com THE CHAT CLUB. |
| Yes, Clannad has a happy ending, and it is satisfying. |

| op prob finished clannad 5 years ago |
    |
| It's a bitter sweet ending with a touch of reality |
 |
| Yes, the ending is sad. Guaranteed to make you cry. Tragedy is abundant and if you're not a fan of your heart being ripped out and fed to the dogs, don't watch it |
 |
Talk about it, i feel like a hole was ripped out of my heart and then someone just tried to poke it back in. Not how it works. The ending just made me question my existance and made me a different being. I feel like i am missing something now, after watching after story, of course. After watching clannad i felt pretty good. |

| I hope not. They all deserve to suffer for eternity. Well, the characters are that stupid that maybe they deserve a pass. |

| Yes, a forced one and I wasn't happy at all. I was ready to give it to give an 8 despite the boring first half but the ending made me settle for a 6. |
 |
| Yes, it was happy ending and everything made perfect sense if you paid attention to foreshadowing and what was happening. |
 |
| It is a happy ending, but I find it to be a pretty unsatisfying happy ending, even if it was foreshadowed. I was sure I was gonna rate Clannad AS a 9/10 because it was constantly getting better after Tomoya became an adult, had the series ended properly around episode 19 with some epilogue scenes showing what the other characters are up to and that kind of stuff, I would call it a masterpiece even, but the following episodes felt like unnecessary suffering porn for Tomoya only for him to get out of the situation through magic, erasing all the consequences he faced up until that point and handing him this golden ending where everyone is happily ever after on a silver platter. To me, this weakens the overall message of the series about how loving other people can be painful, but it's still better than living your life isolated like an emotionless robot, because the painful part of Tomoya's life just didn't exist anymore, so he didn't have to grow up to learn that message anymore. I still like the series, but this ending soured me enough to drag down my rating to an 8. |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |
| Yes it does, albeit forced. Oh well, forced happy ending is still happy one~ |

| Heh. 8 year old thread. Anyway, it does have a happy ending. |
 |
| it does but took me a long ass while to come to terms with it and to believe that it was actually real. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
