| It´s very funny you mention that, because it has been exactly one year since I finished Clannad (December 2012, the 6th), and I had the same exact feeling. I also liked the ending, however most people didn´t. Yeah, after completing Clannad I couldn´t get my mind off of it for about two weeks or so. It was indeed a very werid feeling that you can´t explain unless the other person has gone through it aswell. I guess that feeling is because you identified yourself with the main cast, and that is one of Clannad´s main streaghts: you can see that happening to you. All of it. I finished Clannad and Afterstory in about 3 or 4 days, because I couldn´t stop watching, especially after episode 10 of AS. SO I totally get what you´re feeling, even one year after completing the anime I still think about it now and then. It had a huge impact on my life to be honest. |
| Okeedoke. Another 'void' thread. Whatever. I felt the same way after watching it. I said that about 100000 times in these forums already. I'm going through a void-ish type thing right now with Anohana. |

| Cried for ages after finishing Clannad After Story. 'Why am I still crying? Why haven't I run out of tears yet?' |
 |
| I balled my eyes out at that anime a year ago. So many feels. It was a happy sad though, just because I found something that actually could make me cry. I was impressed. Didn't feel a void because it felt like one had been filled instead. |

| Most people have gone through this and some even still are. I've had a similar feeling (Finished it in 2 nights), couldnt watch another anime, and just kept thinking about Clannad. Just do something else in the meantime, and don't compare the next animes to Clannad, because if this is the first time you've felt this way and you don't think anything can compete with it anymore ... you'll just think every anime you'll watch is never going to be as good, while in fact there are a lot of anime that are. |

| No, I felt like I wasted my time on this and I certainly didn't get ''feels'' let alone cry. |

| Get over it you little girl. |

Thanks for the reply, i also watched the whole thing in few days for the same reasons. Even tho the series had some of the most heartbreaking moments i have ever witnessed i still continued to watch because i was hopeing for it to turn around. And now after it's done i'm glad i watched it. I was 0% spoiled when watching Clannad and Afterstory, so I was praying that somehow something happened that would make Tomoya´s suffering worth it. I mean, he lost his wife in the day that was supposed to be his happiest, his depression wouldnt let him face Ushio, and he was commiting the same mistakes his father once did, and then, after reuniting with his daughter after 5 years of loneliness, she dies by the same fate that his wife did... Had the anime ended without somehow time resetting, I would´ve hated it. It´s not that I am a sucker for happy ends, but it just wouldnt feel right. |

I also don´t see why you´re viewing Clannad´s forum if you hated it that much, but whatever. |
| I'd say it is still affecting me emotionally afterwards, but I will admit that the effective asspull at the end really pissed me off. Made me feel a bit cheated after putting in so much emotional investment to the series. |

| I am experiencing this right now as I just finished the series today. I don't know what to do. I don't even feel like watching other anime or doing anything in general. Idek what I'm doing with my life. Help. |

| I finished watching Clannad yesterday im feeling the same way! I could'nt sleep last night because of it and today Clannad is all that is on my mind! I loved the ending because it just would'nt feel right! But yes it's cool to see that alot of people have the same empty feeling that i have, Not even One Piece and Gintama can cheer me up! |

| Same here... I finished it yesterday..It was all that was on my mind before I fell asleep. |
 |
| I finished Clannad, Clannad After Story, Clannad the Movie and all of the Ova yesterday night and today it's all I can seriously think of. I mean, it was just that phenomenal. Personally, I loved almost each and every side character as almost all of them got decent amount of screening and their fair share of story told. Sound department of the anime was also sensational but I did find the ED of After Story kind of a mood-breaker and the moe animated characters were also completely fine with me. Therefore, I had almost literally no issues with the anime, other than a little confusion which still persists at the side of my brain. As a result, I wasted half my day looking up for theories based on the ending and scrolling through YouTube looking for memorable moments and etc. Now that it has to this, I'm just going to rewatch it tomorrow. Just the thought of going through this tear-jerking yet amusing ride once again feels like a really good refreshing breeze passing through my monotonic life. |

So sorry for the necropost, but speaking of that: But to answer this really old question, I feel you. it's been 3 months since I finished, and am finding it really hard to let go of the emotional rollercoaster I had. Partially due to the fact I added 20+ soundtracks from the series to my playlist. I am quite the sucker for SoL soundtracks; it's ridiculous. |
