THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
All I can say is...that was awesome! Yeah I watched it raw, only understood bits and pieces while using context clues, and pretty much got lost when Junichi was making a speech about something, but damn...just damn! Never did I believe that something like that could happen!

These are just what I think happened due to my very limited understanding of spoken Japanese.


But if the beginning of the episode is an indication of what the future holds, then things will definitely work out in the end. But damn when is the next episode!? There is just no way they can leave things the way they are!



Oh yeah...I think they may have screwed up the time line, but I'm not very positive about this. Now to wait for a fansub group to release this, but I'm quite happy enough as it is! xD

=O >_< lol that was really =O

can i have a link on the raw?
can't find it anywhere >.>

it's on kotori shirakawa fan club...
join and you'll get it!

lol at SwordWielder...
Anyway i like last part... doushite... lol...

*Kotori tears is cute...*

Isn't that like extortion or something? xD

A more adult Kotori is hawtness!

I already joint this group but I can't find the raw anywhere can someone give me the link?

Video is up on NicoVideo, already on Youtube, and is available on a couple more video sharing sites. Just a matter of entering the right search strings...which I already forgot how to do xD

ur not paying attention to what we do in the club do u?

I don't think it was a screw up in timeline just a show of what's in store, I'm guessing it's a two part OVA because the release title has 前編 (opening chapter) in it and the second part will be the closing chapter. This seemed like a response to the Tomoyo After OVA except like 5 years too late, overall pretty good.

Yeah the next episode is supposedly in the other DVD box set (DCSS?) and will be released on March 25, 2009 if Wiki is accurate. Well given that this is an AU, I guess the story takes place on an alternate timeline. One where certain characters are missing, maybe dead?

Umm this is actually leaning more towards the DC2IF manga based on Shirakawa Nanaka. Given the "IF" designation, it is also based on an alternate timeline which coincides with the main storyline. Maybe like Negima Neo I guess.

Five years too late? The Tomoyo OVA (not After bud) was released Jan 2008 so how is that "5 years too late"?

The timeline is set 1 year after Nemu dies (so yea alt timeline) that's why he visited the grave and in the room he thanks the bunch for supporting him through the hardtimes. AND I am saying that the Tomoyo OVA (sorry I'm not hardcore on titles and such) was released pretty much right after the Clannad series compared to this being released 5 years after the original Da Capo series which had it's timeline twisted.

...Tomoyo OVA has a way more twisted timeline than DCIF. I mean come on after 23 mind numbing episodes of Nagisa (yeah not that much of a Nagisa fan even if she is cute), we are thrown a Tomoyo episode to sate the rabid fans. At least DCIF had the setup of the previous DC anime, though I'm still way confused as to where we stand on the timeline.

So confusing since I end up using the VN timeline when they are obviously using the anime one...

And so Nemu is dead huh?
...
...
...so is that the only way Kotori has any chance of actually winning? xD

The OVA was simply beautiful. I love how the show is focused on the 2 important themes

- Junichi-Kotori's relationship
- The barrier to formalising that relationship.

ALL the scenes have these 2 elements threading though and I enjoy a tale with good focus.

when is part 2? more!

As posted above,

March 25, 2009 and the raw stream will probably out by the 27th, going by the release of EP1 anyway. Of course the 25th is the date on wiki, no way I'm scouring the interwebs to confirm this!

I've changed the number of episodes, so we don't need another entry for Part II. "Part I" is going to be removed from the title soon.

If someone hasn't already known this, subs are out!

Ah, this sure brings back memories. Damn, I love Da Capo!

It was great seeing Miharu, Moe, Mako and Suginami again. I can't get enough of those box matches XD Oh and the music, the good old Da Capo themes. I'm almost in tears just hearing it.

Now for the cons:
- It might be that with the time past I got unused to the "upgraded" graphics, but I don't like the way Kotori looks. She looked way cuter with the original graphics, but this isn't something I can blame on DCIF.


-it was great, but felt short. Need moar!


QFT
Yes

PS: Kotori's bold comment on ways to wake up Jun' just reminded me of KissXSis, lol

That was a really nice first episode. Horie Yui \o/ .

Though it feels weird that Nemu's supposed to be dead. =/

that was pretty sad, but really nice. I'm sorry for Nemu, but it was a good way to give Kotori and Junichi some complicated feelings, instead of a simple "i love you, let's get married"
can't wait for the second ep
