| this episode is seriously the 2nd best in all clannad/AS xD everything was just,too great :-) well,it started on a sad note,but that's to be expected from a clannad episode wich:either starts happy and end sad,either starts sad end ends happy... the scene with the play was awesome,Akio's speech was awesome,Tomoya's speech was awesome,everything was AWESUM :D Tomoya finally confessed in the cutest scene in all clannad ^^ yeah they didn't kiss but who cares?i don't.. 999999999999/5 :D |

| Finally. I CRIED! Best episode in all Clannad up till now. I loved it ever since Akio made his speech. Very touching. <3333 |
| Everything in this Episode was predictable. But that does not make it a bad one. Lets see if it can stand its 10 or if it gets a 9 in the extra episode. |
| Thank goodness Nagisa's emo-ness didn't last long. Nice last few mins. |
| Pretty good ending. We'll see what I think about the next episode.. 9/10 or 8/10??? hmmmm. |
  |
| Nagisa being all emo was just weird. I almost cried when Akio burst into the auditorium. Tomoya's confession did seem like it was just thrown in at the end. |
| WHAT....A...ENDING...! Awesome |
| He finally confessed, yayh!!! |
 |
| felt soo bad for nagisa when she was first on stage :(. lovely ending :D |
| "Fun things...Happy things...They'll all...They'll all eventually change some day, you know? But can you still love this place?" - Nagisa |
| Holy... I burst into tears when Nagisa's father appeared... his speech was the most emotional thing that happened in this series. |
 |

 |
| what I nice final ep to end off the season :,[ |

| I was really worried about Nagisa being emotional about her parents' dreams. But when Akio rushed in the auditorium and exploded his emotional speech, I felt like I'm going to cry. His words really hit me deep. And the word that I can describe about the confession was "HAPPINESS". Overall, a great ep.. |

| Akio is just straight up GAR!!! |
 |
| I hate seeing Nagisa all depressed. Makes me cry as well. But this ending was perfect, a great way to end an awesome anime series!!! |
  |
| I'm glad Tomoya ended up with Nagisa. <3 Tomoyo After was terrible and Kyou's route just plain sucked. (= |

| Awwww what a great episode!!!!! and what an adorable ending!! <3 |
   |
| this ep made me cry hehe. its been so long since ive cried while i was watching an anime |
| Hmmm I am real crybaby at such times, I cried durring happier and funnier animes than Clannad, but I did not feel like crying or even being sad while watching Clannad... so many sad stories and arcs but somehow I did not feel them. Anyho I pretty loved this ep. However Nagisa annoys me all the time and I was quite pissed off when whole show she was like crying all the time... Anyway will finish watching two eps and will go to after story. I am sxpecting something better there as I already saw some spoilers from that season.. 3/5 from me for this ep. |
     Gyabo!~ |
| Awww! Fantastic! She managed to perform the play in the end, I was a bit worried, but Akio's rousing speach was awesome! Go super-dad! And a nice touch from Tomoya telling his dad not to drink too much! Marvelous series! |
 |
| Wonderful last episode, even if it was a little cliche. I loved the way this show grew with such innocent romance but without fanservice. So it was appropriate to end with a quick confession but with no kiss |
| A tad predictable but hey, at least there was an unambiguous declaration of love from Tomoya (which is something so many anime lack). I do feel that the rest of the characters lacked some more screen time but I suppose this was all about Nagisa. |

| For some reason, I don't like Nagisa as the lead heroine. Feels somewhat misplaced. |

Feels somewhat misplaced. |

| predictable but still beautiful story. Though, I must admit that I don`t like Nagisa too... When I played the game I even didn`t speak to her... May be watching the second season will change my mind... |
| Oh man, I seriously thought this was the ending. There is one more? ^^ Akio is a man among men. I will strive to be a manly father like him some day. Nagisa-chan was giving yandere vibes in the beginning LoL. I'm glad she's back to her usual self now. Ending was very predictable, yet necessary. Thumbs up. |
 |
| Teared a lil at the part when Nagisa's dad came in the theatre hall. Tomoya finally confessed :D |
| Wow, this is the best ending i've ever seen. It's a pretty obvious ending, but still - those emotions that come along with it, and the soundtrack... goosebumps. Every. Time. |
| What a melodrama. Didn't cry at all. Phew. |

Maeda is talentless story writer, I don't think them stories even try to be good nor smart. The shows are for people who are easily played with them emotions, not for those who like to think. Most of the stories are over-dramatic and lolworthy. It's really hard to take those seriously you know. People have every reason to hate those shows since those are not objectively good.

I completely agree with some thins, but telling that Maeda is talentless is just stupid. Just because he has some kind of formula doesn't mean he is bad writer. And if he is so bad why does this show have so many good ratings, so many fans... Not every fan is emo kid or overly emotional. Anyway I like to believe that everybody is entitled to its own opinion so I won't discuss it further... What I wanted to say with my previous post was "We already know what you think of this show, why come on every episode topic and say "rubbish" " That's all.... And there is a message in this show, you just have to recognize it.. |

Aaaand this Karhu said: The shows are for people who are easily played with them emotions, not for those who like to think. Most of the stories are over-dramatic and lolworthy. +you can see all those "dramatic" moments from miles away. Anyway - characters crying on screen + sad music got really old. It's like beating a dead horse even though there are only bones left. |
sfu_arc_member said: My feelings towards Clannad are fairly neutral but I disagree entirely with that Angel Beats review you posted, Karhu. The review frankly offends me. Most of it is opinion which is fine but the part that gets me is the mentioning of how people are getting fooled by fake emotions. Normally, I would just move on and ignore this but I have a friend that changed his entire life over Angel Beats. I've known the guy for years and he's always been pretty laid back and lives life without much ambition or care for anyone else. As ridiculous as this may sound, when he saw Angel Beats last year, he went through some emotional changes. He now works for Big Brothers (Canadian group dedicated to providing for the homeless and needy) and spends all of his time helping those less fortunate. I couldn't believe it myself, I mean, the guy was pretty much an asshole before all this. What I am saying is...that this anime affected him more so than when his parents died. I'm quite offended that you would call this change in him "fake". Is this change in his life over "false emotions"? I think the emotions he felt were very real and you have no right to call them otherwise. You're basically stepping on the goodwill of all the people who become organ donors after watching Angel Beats (believe me, it actually happens). I had never thought about being an organ donor before but now I am one. It never even crossed my mind, I guess most people don't think about it. Say what you will about the anime but it enlightened me on how I could end up saving someone with my organs. Cool story bro. Key/KyoAni always resorted to cheap tricks to move the viewer. So, first of all: if you didn't watch some other "drama" animes, then they might look great. But if you did... Then you know that they're just another cookie-cutter forced drama. If you only need crap like this to change then... Woah, dude you're as shallow as my teaspoon. I wonder, how would you're life change if you watched something truly great?... BTW - how many organ donors didn't watch angel beats? Hm? PS. Weak-minded people are easily influenced. Ever heard of people who started to study medicine or take vicodin after watching House M.D? Ever heard of the "C.S.I. effect?" /ED @2BishopChris I'd rather be elitist than easily manipulated sheep. I think Karhu would say something similar. |

| I still love this series. seconded time to re-watch and it's still my favorite anime. |
| Wow, a lot took place in this ep, felt it was quite fast paced, and his confession was rushed, it was a good ep though. |
| El Psy Congroo まだまだだね!!! |
| Yea I really dislike emo Nagisa it's just too cliche and stupid. But I like Akio and the ending was good. |
| So the climax of the whole series is really a shonen action show speech that solves everything? |
| I thought it was kind of awkward that they had that conversation in the middle of the play. I think all of that could have happened before the play started and it would have been the same. |
 |
| Well, nothing surprising here but good end. Muted colours at the beginning were well done, I think. Emo Nagisa is just annoying ... and by that I mean even more so than usual. I really hate characters like that -_-" Akio shouting in the middle of the play surprised me but just made him more awesome XD How does he look exactly the same after like 20 years?! Lol XD So the doll/girl thing was just the play. I still don't really get it but they go to a different world I guess ... AND THEY SING. Same reaction as Tomoya lol wtf :P I wanted to see him forgive his dad or whatever ... well, we got a bit of it, I guess. It's a start? Shame though, I would have liked THAT to be resolved at least ... Tomoya finally confesses. Well, not that I expected anything else, really -_-" Oh and yes THANK YOU SUBBER PEOPLES for not subbing the chalkboard thing. I honestly had no clue wtf they were writing until I read it was their names. DURRRR -_-" Next episode is a random summer themed one? Uh, OK o_O |
