Meddigo said: clannad4ever said: why the hell is the main character a crow now?xD i so want to get into this like i got into clannad but i just can't :( If you paid attention to the Summer Arc (the one that took place in the past), you would understand. You'll recall that one of the last scenes is Kanna taking to the air, causing some widespread destruction, and then being shot with many arrows. There were also dudes chanting which cursed her. Recall that Kanna sees a scene with Ryuuya and Uraha both dying. Of course we know that Ryuuya and Uraha survive and end up having a kid, etc. She is cursed to see that vision over and over again. Anyway, the same curse that afflicted Kanna is also upon Misuzu. She cannot get close to anyone. If she does get close to someone she'll get sicker and sicker and eventually die. Yukito realized this, and thus separated himself from her. However, he couldn't leave her alone, so using magic past down from Uraha he puts all his feelings into the little doll and becomes a crow (be it through death->reincarnation or magic) so he could be near Misuzu and watch over her. You make it sound so simple. :P I did get it, but it all kind of smacks of 'cheeeeeeese'. But, considering they only had 13 (12 if you don't count the recap) it was done pretty well. |

But, considering they only had 13 (12 if you don't count the recap) it was done pretty well. yeah they should make a remake,with something like 24 episodes.. the story is abit hard to follow because of the few episodes...and you can't get into the characters |

| Quite hard to understand. |
| Wafu~ ! |
| I don't see how Clannad fans can accept that Shima (a cat) can turn into a dude, but yet can't accept that Yukito turned into a bird. So silly ^_^ |
| Lmao, the whole episode I was like, "Why am I watching all the past episodes in a crows perspective?" Anyways, I hope Yukito turns back to a human :( But I get why he is a crow in the mean time. Pretty much because that's how he can stick close to Misuzu and not get them both killed. |
 |
| Not too complicated.. but I'm glad people are explaining it so eloquently. Honestly, I think Yukito (the "human consciousness" part) is gone, but he lives on literally in the "crow." Very interesting... |
  |
| I understood what happened. But.. I don't recall seeing a crow before this episode. o.0 |

Yeah I agree with you.. I feel like people don't like this anime because everyone compares it to Clannad and Clannad is better. But I like Air alot, even tought I wish their where more eps. |
| Yukito is a crow watching over Misuzu now. Wonder what will happen from now on... |

| I'm a little confused by this but here's my theory and only conclusion i can draw at this point. Yukito Died the first time right before that whole past arc, and when he did he used his magic to reincarnate himself as a crow, for whatever reason. But when he reincarnated himself he was reincarnated at a point where he was still actually alive. So his living soul and Dead soul were both present at the same time. I don't know why though? |
blackfeather_58 said: msw said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mmmm...Good episode but these are the fillers I hate most. You know the kind where it's like fillers but with new content spliced in, so, you have to watch it... Kind of confusing with the crow, is the crow Yukito or what? Yes. Oh, my... This is not a filler! They are tying up the gaps in the story. This is a very nice episode in which the story is explained in a wider sense. Any, Yukito is not the crow!! How come you came up with this kind of conclusion? Don't you see both the crow and Yukito together? Maybe in the later episodes, they are gonna say that the crow was somehow Yukito, but until now, there is not any such a-priori information. For now, the existence and identity of the crow is a total misery. |
| Great episode I do wonder whats next! |
 |
| Not a lot of development in this episode, but it confirm a few things for me. Comedy in here was great though. Preview looks serious, I'm looking forward to it. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |

| I liked the episode itself, it felt great to watch, I just don't really get the story around the crow. But the episode was great anyway. (V) |
  |
| The episode was nice. Most of it was a recap with the crow. But i'm still confused of what happened at the end : l |
 |
| The double Yukito! So he watched what she has done Alain. |
| ... my gosh, this episode made me realize just how much I love Misuzu. ;n; she's so cuuuuuute. Despite the explanations in this thread, I still don't think it makes sense that Yukito lived as a human and as a crow simultaneously. Veretax said: The oddity of the cake is not so odd now. It took your comment here for me to actually connect this event. So the guy who dropped the cake off with Yukito was actually Misuzu's father... the cake ended up getting back to his daughter anyway. How touching. |

| I feel like this show is dicking around with a plot that is seemingly made up as it goes along. They try to tie in the past with the present with a paradox about Yukito being the crow that just feels like a ass pull. They somewhat clarify the significance of the winged people with connections to her dreams, notice i said SOMEWHAT. 15 episodes long & feels like a messy trainwreck 2/3 through If this show gets any more convoluted then I don't see it getting anything higher than a 5/10 from me |
 |
| I'm eager for the next episode. |

| been 2 years since someone made a post here :o Anyways Was confused at first, but was reading what others had to say and it's actually really touching :S Just wish this anime had a 24 episode run. This show seemed rushed especially with the other characters. |
 |
| The episode itself was good and sad, following the crow all the way finally showing what actually changed since the few episodes prior. What I found the most dramatic about it is the preview of the next episode. It seems that a lot is going to happen... |
| The bits with the crow and Yukito were confusing at first, but the second half of this made up for it being confusing. Also payback for Haruko poking Yukito's eyes XD |
| What?? I'm not sure I understood? Was Yukito with her all the time? As a raven or as a human? Both? It is because he's a descendant of Uraha? I got double confusion with this episode. Also the preview made my heart hurt. Can someone be friends with that poor girl oh my god. Update: Never mind just read some other posts on this thread. Interesting. |

| Was Yukito watching himself as a crow? |
 |
| OK! So... he turned into a crow?? ok |
 |
| Wow, this was actually a really beautiful episode. It was interesting getting a new perspective on everything that's happened and all the characters, especially Misuzu's aunt, I see her in a much different way now. I hope Yukito and Misuzu can be reunited both in human form. Seeing Misuzu cry after he left was really heartbreaking </3 :'( Looking forward to seeing where the last 2 episodes take this show! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| What in the actual fuck is happening anymore, we got some scenes where the crow and Yukito are both present so how could he be the crow in the end. Am I missing something here? |
| Okay some users in this thread did explain things quite neatly. Also watching all these happening from a third person view actually made me appreciate this a bit. All those subtle details throughout do make sense now. But still though their habit of going over the top with their supernatural stuff needs a check. |
