| Doubt anyone reading this in 2020, but this one just ain't hit for me. The concept of romance definitely surpassed what was achieved by Tomoya and Nagisa in the 23 episodes of Clannad, but Tomoya's character just felt so different. Prior to this he seemed so unswayed by outside opinions and he just didn't feel the same as he was in the main story. I guess you could chalk this up to being Tomoyo's influence on him but I don't know. Maybe I just couldn't get behind it because Nagisa is best girl though. |
| 10/10 It will be amazing if this gets an anime series. Even 'Tomoyo After' is a good and enough material to be adapted. |
 |
| This chapter was so good, i liked how tomoyo showed her fem and emotional side with tomoya, but well theres not much to develop on just one chapter, this could be easily much better. Powerful duo. |
| Really sweet episode, which is why I'm surprised by how divisive the reception is. Even if it had a little of that trademarked Clannad melodrama, a 23-minute special managed to do way more for me than the 9-hour TV show it's based on. I consider almost everything in this to be better than the mainline story, since the characters were actually behaving like human beings for a change and the art was pretty and detailed. My only real complaints occur as a result of its length, which I suppose can't really be helped. |

| AW Damn it I'm crying. TOMOYO IS THE BEST GIRL!!!! And also people are assholes. |
 |
| Well tbh I kinda like this ending, it was pretty good it seems like on this Tomoyo Edition was a very interesting and it has a good romance as well so 7/10. |

| This made me proud that Tomoyo is my favorite character. I really enjoyed this and I loved everything about this. |

| Man, when you jokingly tell your girlfriend to break up and she instantly gets sad and replies what Tomoyo replied, you shouldn't even think of breaking up "for her sake". |

| Jun Maeda for a LOT of hate for making this visual novel to the point where it depressed him and made him take a hiatus. Let's not forget that. |
 |
| this is a different Tomoyo personality-wise. This is not the Tomoyo from the anime series. I like this Tomoyo much more. Had Tomoyo acted in the anime like the Tomoyo from this OVA, I would have definitely wanted her to win Tomoya. I also liked Tomoya's personality in this OVA. Felt real. I have been in his situation, both romance and friendship-wise. Its tough to be together with a woman or any other person who is just so successful in life and youre just scraping by. Great OVA. Felt really real, relatable. It was very touching. Again, its a shame that Tomoyo had such a macho personality on the series, and not this lovable one from this OVA. |

I guess you could chalk this up to being Tomoyo's influence on him but I don't know. Maybe I just couldn't get behind it because Nagisa is best girl though. Actually, Tomoya's personality in the anime, because he is a delinquent, specially around episode 12 of season 1 when he was talking to Kyou, didnt see himself with any woman from the school because Tomoya saw himself as a loser. Bottom line, asides from liking Nagisa, he also saw himself in the same wavelength as her, since Nagisa is a repeater and many considered her a "loser" as well. The Tomoya from the anime would NOT have gone out with Tomoyo, Kyou, or Ryou because they were winners in life. In the anime, Nagisa and Kyou were the best girls since I always felt a connection when Tomoya interacted with both of them as opposed to any other girl. But if Tomoyo had the personality in this OVA as compared to the macho personality she had in the anime series, I might have picked Tomoyo. |
| I liked this one. Tomoyo is a great character!Nagisa is still best girl tho |
| Tomoyo is a great character and have more personality compare to Nagisa. This route is much better in term of romance drama just what the main lacking and no direction. Great OVA for heartfelt and relatable romance for just 25 min. Definitely one of highest point and my favourite from the series. This is also what I'm looking for from the franchise not the dumb or unfunny comedy that have been thrown in through out the main series. |

| This special was better than the entire anime... |
 |
| YYYYYEEEEESSSSS SORRY NAGISA BUT FUK U UR BORING ASF GTFO AND MAKE WAY FOR THE BEST GIRL So much drama crammed into a single episode; it punched me harder in the gut than anything from the main series. Seeing Tomoya belittled like that was quite painful. It's understandable to see where everyone else is coming from, but at the same time it's so ruthless to the point of being comical. But it's okay, it serves it's purpose in letting Tomoyo's love for Tomoya shine bright. I'm so glad they at least adapted one ova for Tomoyo's route, as well as one for Kyou which I will be watching next before heading into After Story. At least the two best girls will have their much-deserved moments in the spotlight. 7/10 |

| Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I was longing to see those 2 hug since the start of the episode, at last my eyes have been blessed. I wish there was like a 2 hour movie showing the whole Tomoya x Tomoyo, everything upto graduation, jobs, marriage, kids. 10/10. Loved this just as much as the main story. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
To tell the truth Tomoyo was the 2nd girl I shipped Okazaki with, I'm glad to see that even if it's in an alternative version they manage to come out. Me quede con ganas de darle un buen vergazo a Suehara |

| I loved! Tomoya multiverse. I think there could have been more things, but it was cool, having your friend Sunohara. 8/10 |
 |
| Alternate ending was very good, much like the series. A "what if...." type of episode should have Tomoya picked another girl instead of Nagise. It hits the feels pretty hard. |
