jahrakal2009 said: Lacking warmth and feeling? A completely unfounded statement after seeing so few episodes. LoGH has romance, even if it is not of the overly dramatic and juvenile kind one usually see in anime, it has family relationships popping up quite frequently, and it has some of the most tragic moments I have ever come across in fiction, it even portray sorrow better than any other series I have seen. But it does so because you slowly grow to know the characters and become involved in their tales, not through pure melodrama.Well, LOGH struck me as lacking in any warmth and feeling. The animation was quite poorly done which gives me the impression that the producers just copied whatever was included in the novel and never gave much thought into improving this space operaish epic. So far, the line up of characters have been really disappointing. Reinhard in particular seems to be designed just for the sake of impressing the audience with his authoritarian and rather firm approach to things. As for Reinhard, he is a lot more nuanced and deep than what you have seen, far more so than any character in CG or Clannad, and even so, he is not the most impressive character in the series. As for the animation, it was started in 88, and it is hand drawn, so forget about comparing it to the more cheaply computer produced graphics you see today. It also, did not copy anything, the designs of the ships and characters were, of course, based on the descriptions in the novel, but so was the manga, and it came out very different. But sentimentality and traditional values such as family, friendship, determination and growing up are leagues above the usual deep emotions derived from a particular characters death just for the sake of creating drama. This is of course something Clannad succeeds to do as it raises the questions of the effects of a family, both one united and complete and a broken one. Such values will aways remain a part of humanity and has been with us since the beginning of time. Such values are pure cultural ones, not a part of human nature. Familial bonds have been, and are very different throughout the various cultures of the world, look only at ancient Sparta for example. Your argument does not change anything, it is precisely because family is something that is well known to most that makes this a cheaper tactic to persuade the viewer compared to more lofty topics like politics and history that require more involvement to understand and enjoy. But yes, I did like Clannad AS' depiction of family troubles, even if it was ruined with all the magic and illogical plot twists, and even though LoGH also have some of these themes, it does not dive as deeply into it, just as Clannad does not focus on politics, history, war and strategy. But while Clannad AS had, as far as I am concerned, one quite good point to it that was ruined along the way, LoGH has dozens, and these were not blemished in any way by cheap plot twists or bad writing. bahoaday said: It's merely a discussion, I don't think any of us are trying to convert one another.

| all of a sudden LoGH and C~AS~ both drop from 8.98 to 8.97 and both lost to Kenshin... Work of trolls? What's the damn point in degrading one another!!!!! Why can't they just accept that some show is just more well loved/popular then others. To which ever retard troll reading this!!!! When I don't like Naruto, I gave it a 4, and that's it. I do not create 15 account to give it 1/10 rating!!! Don't create extra accounts to spam low rating and overload this website and ruined the actual rating!!!!! |

| I feel for Zabuza and Sandaime's death, the rest are meh. I was kinda sad when Neji suppose to die from the fight with Spiderboy. But since he survive, I guess it didn't count. |

| Drunk_Samurai, I actually think that it depends on how you watched it. I watched Clannad & Clannad AS as it came out, week by week. My friend watched it but all in one go. She didn't cry but her boyfriend ended up crying because he watched it week by week. It really makes a difference, I think. You become more attached when you watch it week by week and the suspense adds to the relationship you have with the characters. But that's just me, i personally think clannad is a really great anime and there are probably better ones but i don't see why people can't just accept it lol. ps. my friend isn't heartless xD |

I believe the guy may be able to relate to Okazaki better then the girl, which contribute to his emotions. I don't think time frame really mattered, but just how you bonded with the characters and how you felt about the story. Guys tend to understand episode 4 more then girls could. I believe it's the same for Okazaki's life. |

| I don't cry much, I consider myself a manly man, and yet, Clannad hit me hard. Out of all the anime, I think this one brought me closest to crying. I watched this one weekly, around the time it aired. I like to take time to think while watching anime. Aside from that, I think AirStyles got a good point, Air can't really be compared with Clannad. And comparing an action seies to a drama series doesn't make sense. Of course more people willl die in an action anime. |
| Air cant be compared with Clannad? they were basically made for the same purpose....although I'd like to think Kanon was the saddest of all the Key adaptations tbh. Clannad AS ep 18 was the saddest stand alone episode adapted of the 3 imo....but as a whole Kanon had way more tear jerking moments of almost as much magnitude ;_; |

Episode 22 (Clannad season 1) was well done as well. Hmmm... Maybe. But Clannad took the premise to a whole new level. Very few drama goes beyond girlfriendxboyfriend relationship, but in Clannad, the main characters marry and face various obstacles. The deaths might not be many, but they all serve the purpose of carrying the theme of the anime further. Air was good, but too brief. Kanon wasn't bad too, very dramatic, but lacked a clear theme although it might be sad. |

Blah, true. But all this was hinted so much since the beginning, in Clannad season 1 that this really shouldn't be all that of a "nasty" surprise. |
| Fear the finger of death |
| I personally would have preferred if they had stayed dead. Then again, it was obviously going to happen because the show was based around the VN. To me, 21 was the "true" last episode of Clannad ~AS~. The other ones were "bonus" episodes if you will. I'm glad there was a happy ending, but also thought that the happiness detracted from the power of the show. Some people might say that "ignoring" episodes isn't a fair way to judge a show, but the last 3 episodes really were filler. 1 was a recap, 1 was an extra episode, and 1 was an attempt to go along with the VN and produce a happy ending. I wished and wished for a happy ending, but again, it definitely brought the show down. |
Baman said: Justilee said: If they had only stayed dead.The deaths might not be many, but they all serve the purpose of carrying the theme of the anime further. Yes, that much would be true. But perhaps the characters did stay dead. After all, the one at the end was entirely an alternative world. But I'm not all that pleased with the ending myself, but in all honesty much of it was already hinted + the VN reference are quite solid arguments for its ending. meonlyme775 said: I personally would have preferred if they had stayed dead.

I wished and wished for a happy ending, but again, it definitely brought the show down. Agreed. I think episode 21 was the true end of AS as the later episode was a referral to an alternative world or something along that line, since in that world, Nagisa did not die. She didn't come back to life in my eyes there. Dexterous said: game8910 said: SaberSkye said: but it would have a bigger sense of realism, which is what Clannad was being praised for.

Blah, true. But all this was hinted so much since the beginning, in Clannad season 1 that this really shouldn't be all that of a "nasty" surprise. Well, that's true. Although staying dead and overcoming the deaths of his family might have been even more impactful. Then Clannad AS would definately be a true masterpiece in my book. But that aside, it wasn't all that bad. |
 |
| Okazaki got those punishments for his doubts. He thought if he hadn't met Nagisa, her life would have been much happier, which is obviously not true. After he regretted these thoughts he was forgiven of course. Leaving Okazaki dead would've been equal to saying things like: "don't you ever have friends, because if you die, you'll make them sad". |
| I see. So you're saying Okazaki died in the snowstorm? I always thought there were two alternate worlds and that in one of them Nagisa never died. But the lights might mean that a wish was fulfilled. |

But he collected enough Light orb of happiness to change his life into a happier one. So for me, realistically, he's dead, but magically involved, he manage to reverse everything because of the happiness he created, which in turn comes back to help the "Miserable" Tomoya. |

| I actually interpreted it the way Dexterous did. In the scene where Tomoya and Ushio were at a snowstorm, they actually died. But because of the light orbs he had collected he was able to fulfil his wish for a complete and happy family. The Other World was another life, one where he managed to achieve happiness because of what he accomplished in the first world. |

Out of all the anime, I think this one brought me closest to crying. I watched this one weekly, around the time it aired. I like to take time to think while watching anime. Aside from that, I think AirStyles got a good point, Air can't really be compared with Clannad. And comparing an action seies to a drama series doesn't make sense. Of course more people willl die in an action anime. Yeah,I was almost crying when I saw the ending scene . It was so dramatic and the plot is great in the end. I can't believe that the ending could be like that . I agree. I'm not really a fan of slice of life, romance, drama anime, but Clannad and True Tears pulled me right back in. I'm more of an action/mecha/sci-fi/sports fanboy really. The only relevant anime I was watching back then was the Aria series (as I heard it was like Honey and Clover) but that was Slice of Life and it wasn't necessarily a sad anime. Clannad and True Tears both get credit for making me choke when I thought I could no longer feel enough or be emotionally affected by romance/drama/SoL anime as a whole. To quote Nagisa, joyful moments, exciting moments, I have found them all along with the sad moments. game8910 said: AS never reached #1, it reached #2 once with 8.98 but then the trolls took notice and now they are staring to give it the LoGH treatement (to a lesser extend) Yes, that's what I thought as well. It received a little bit of that LoGH treatment there; though not as severely hit as LoGH. Tat anime was hit like a tonne of bricks. AirStyles said: From what I remember, Clannad after story reached number 1 once before, probably a few weeks back before LoTGH and Clannad both dropped 0.02% and surpass by Kenshin in 1 day. (Troll?) LoTGH got massive trolled, that I have to agree. They are no where to be seen now. I would say definite troll. It had 44 ones some months ago, and then when I last checked there were suddenly 65++. Same thing happened to CG and TTGL and DN been trolled since forever. Of course, its not as obvious as LOGH trolling, but I still admire the LOGH trollers to some extent. Drunk_Samurai said: tweety666 said: Well, 8.97, #4, looks like it's going for the #1 spot, 0.02 more to go That's only because LOTGH got hit by like 200 1 trolls. Good news though. Looks like the mods are deleting all the recent troll accounts, so you can rejoice a little. At least the mods are doing something about it. Yeah.however,Clannad is one of my favourite anime . :D and,about the rating,it's reasonable why the rating is 8.92 it doesn't bad,right? It's one of my favourites too. 8.92 is very reasonable, in fact I like it to be even higher than that. Clannad fans unite. (Pun intended of course) Not at all. In fact I think it deserves a 9.15 even. |
