... what a fantastic episode. I am blown away.

Maybe it's the story, maybe its because I love cats and I have owned an orange tabby that looks exactly the same who passed away.... I cried during this episode. A complete rarity. Not Kidding.

Wow. I already cried, and I'm only 6 eps in. I let loose some tears when Tomoya told Misae about what he had seen.

"i dont recall ever making a date with a cat" i laughed at that part great ending to a great arc

"I am the bone of my sword,
Steel is my body and Fire is my blood,
I have created over a thousand blades,
Unknown to Death,
Nor known to Life,
Have withstood pain to create many weapons,
Yet, those hands will never hold anything,
So as I pray, unlimited blade works"

Wow, was Misae arc always 2 episodes?
Her voice was really weird when she fell in the yukata. It was like... so emotionless... in fact, I'm probably bothered by her voice because it's so boring.

Yoshino was awesome though.

Ha! Nice!

Good conclusion to a good arc. Shima will be with Misae forever, but as a cat! Well, it was nice to see she'd kept in touch with her old friends!

Right, whats next...?

Wow, what that was one of the worst episodes of anime that I've seen in a while. The drama was just complete bullshit, seriously. I have heard that this series gets much better after a couple of episodes, I can't wait for these awful episodes to end.

And how am I supposed to know what I will think about it before I watch it smartass? Actually I have already dropped this show once before because I didn't like the first couple of episodes, but I've heard from several people that it gets much better after the first half so of course I'm going to watch it and see what I think about the series as a whole.

Really nice arc! I think it was pretty obvious that he was some kind of supernatural being at some point of the 1st epsiode...but still, it was pulled off very nicely.

But...what is this "I will play with you a LOT"-phrase by Misae meant to mean? ....

Beautiful. Far better than the Fuuko arc imo.

I guess this is Clannad. I do miss the everyday school scenes but I'm still going to stick this through to the end. A very promising series so far and it continues to prove why.

That felt very very similar to the Fukochan arc. Had a nice plot though, very deep, another great ep.

This is laughable. Key's pulled the ghost twist so often it's become very predictable.

And why did we get a flashback of an inconsequential character in the first place if it's only going to be at the quality level of a shoujo one-shot from Ribon?

Ah, I cried a little.
It definitely is bitter sweet, as Tomoya said.
The fact that "Shima" granted her wish and did make it come true, that Misae wanted him by her said forever, but he couldn't do it in a human form, but in his original form as a cat. It's sort of sad really, but sweet that he still IS with her. If he were human, I'm pretty sure they might've even gotten married. Oh well. That's what makes it bittersweet.
Can't be sad about this episode but not overjoyed either. Oh, Clannad how you tug and pull at my feelings.
I really liked this episode.

They aren't ghosts, they're ikiryou, detached souls of the living common in japanese mythos. As far as I remember they're only used in Kanon and Clannad and in Clannad it is not even the main route.

They used the ghost and reincarnation theme more in Air where everyone was either a reincarnation, posessed by evil spirits or friend of wandering spirits.

If you're gonna complain about anything, you can only complain about the fact Key is obsessed with the supernatural. Aside from the Ikiryou parallel in Kanon and Clannad, they didn't really repeat the same supernatural phenomena anywhere else from my knowledge.

pretty episode, but it started to look like Fuko arc from season 1 all over again. Similar how they both disappeared, cause they like a spirit or something (that has a material form) xDDD It's a Good arc :) But I wanna see more Tomoya X Nagisa. I can't WAIT to see them married, and have child =) NEEDS More Tomoya X Nagisa development!!!

Maybe it's because I had a really crappy last 10 hours or so....
Maybe it's because this story reminded of a certain other story arc from Kanon, which I really loved.....
Maybe it's because I really love cats.....
Or maybe it's because it was such a well told, emotional story....

But manly tears were shed this episode. The moment at the festival where she realized who the cat was.....I couldn't hold back the tears. That was such a great moment. Definitely haven't felt such an emotional impact from the series since the end of Fuko's arc. There were other really sad moments in between then and now, but these 2 have really gotten for some reason. The end of Mei/Sunohara's arc was really great, but it didn't actually make the tear come like this episode. Afterstory is proving itself to be extremely well done. I didn't think i'd like it as much, since it's seems like the 5 girls have already had their stories told. (although, i'm pretty sure Fuko's and Nagaisa's story isn't over yet though)

Basically, After Story is amazing, and I can't wait to see more.

pathetic girly-boy characters like shima are one of japan's worst inventions. the fact that any character, let alone misae, could like shima as a person is baffling. the entire love story made absolutely zero sense because of this and just made me angry.
