| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Emo Nagisa = DO NOT WANT. Akio = GAR and other manly pronouns. Tomoya = Finally makes a move in the last episode... Well I didn't expect anything different, it was pretty predictable. The start of the episode sucked, Nagisa was emo. Akio's entrance was cool and all but pretty random. The festival montage was good. And Tomoya and Nagisa confession and closing seen were good. But Im disappointed since I was waiting for a kiss :/. All thats left is the extra episode, hopefully KyoAni will continue to make KEY games into anime (*cough* Little Busters *cough*) and show a preview in the credits... |

| I was crying from the point Akio rushed into the auditorium all the way to the end of Dango Daikazoku. That was...just perfect. |
| I did like this episode, but I wished they hadn't rushed Tomoya's confession so much. They kind of just through it in at the end. Actually, this whole episode seemed rushed. Ah well, I shouldn't be suprised. :D |
     |
| That was good imo. I liked how when everyone was telling Nagisa that she was the one holding all of their dreams. Touched me a little. Though I did feel that the ending was rushed as well. Great episode and now one more left. |
     |
| very good episode I didn't like the depressed Nagisa very much though I liked the Aiko and Tomoya speeches a lil predictable at the end when Tomoya confessed his love for Nagisa now we will wait and see whats in store for the extra episode and me hoping for a second season on after story |

| Great episode, how mutch I hate crying, I did it bote at the sad parts and beautiful parts... amazing and happy enough it wasn't the same as the movie otherwhise I cried even harder |
 |
| I burst into tears at Akio's speech and pretty much didn't stop till the end xD In my opinion, I loved it. |
 |
| Ah, its all over. :'( |
 |
| there is still time for a kiss scene (i don't think in the next special..but maybe in July)..so i'm just really happy with this end (TomoyaxNagisa are really perfect together >___<) for the rest AsianQuickSilver said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST.

| A nice and sappy ending, but I still enjoyed it. Though now it would seem that Tomoya having the dream the same as the play is completely irrelevant in the anime, unlike in the movie. I'll stick with the series getting an 8, it was a good watch. |
 |
| That was a predictable final episode.. They should do the rest of the story in a second season. |

| Yes, it was predictable, but I still loved it. <3 Now, to wait for July... -___- |
| wow... great ending and who knows we might get the Tomoya/Nagisa kiss either next episode or the OVA. Though i'll be fine if it doesn't happen. I was tearing up when it got to the final music montage simply beautiful This definitely makes my top 5 list. |

| any idea when the next episode and the ova will be out. i still want more explanation about tomoya's past and his relationship with his dad. i hope it will be better. |
 |
| props to nagisa's seiyuu for her excellent work in this episode. Nakahara-sama is a master of controlling emotion. Akio's entrance into the play was awesome, really liked the way this ended. Great series. |

Ah well, I shouldn't be suprised. :D Agreed. I also started crying when Akio came in, but I stopped once she started the play :P Fantastic scene, even if the beginning took up too much of the episode... Great series, and I still have to say that Tomoya is one of the greatest protagonists ever. But I feel a bit sad; I think he could have been greater, if they had given him some resolution of his own. This is only thing that disappointed me about this series. What happened to Tomoya slowly falling apart and Nagisa helping to put him back together as well? And then they would have made a perfect couple. They allude to the fact that she's helped him to not hate school, but was his reaction any different when his dad showed up? No :P I was so happy they gave him more background that they usually give male characters in shows like this, but why no climax and resolution for it?? He's still my favourite though :) And I absolutely loved the series. 9/10 |
| XD such a great episode!! and loved the ending :D off to watch the movie now ^_^ |

| Way to good!!! I wish there were more of this shows!!! 5/5 and i truly mean it. +6 |

| The best part was when Akio came into the theater, I cried, but I stopped soon after. It was a good episode, but still not fantastic and amazing like I expected. I liked the confession at the end, but I really hoped for a kiss, which never happened :( |
  |
| Yeah, it needed to have a kiss to fully make it perfect. Sealed with kiss as they say ;] |
|
| I thought this was an awful ending... i expected something much better |

| I loved the ending D: |
| I thought Akio's speech was on point. Nice ending there |
| Such a giggity episode. |

| I will never forgive Nagisa for takin Tomoya from Kyou :) lol Good episodde, I guess. Nothing really intriguing, so predictable... I guess in the Clannad Movie the part when Tomoya realized he was in love was so much better! |
 |
| What a beautiful ending. I'm a bit dissapointed this didn't happen earlier in the series though... |

| As a standalone anime series...Clannad TV's story is excellent. The main problem comes with knowing that there is so much more concerning the story, but we have no clue if KyoAni will make a second season. The ending itself was nicely done, I thoroughly enjoyed the direct confession by Tomoya. At the same time the ending itself doesn't really leave much when it comes to the foreshadowing of an S2. I was hoping that the ending itself will have some huge cliffhanger that will leave us drooling and mobbing for a second season, but they chose an airtight method that doesn't leave much room for argument. We got a happy "ending" and everybody loves happy endings. If you aren't versed in the entire story of Clannad, I suggest you don't dig up anymore information unless we receive an official announcement from KyoAni concerning an S2. With that said, I feel that the contents of the last 3 episodes were made longer than they were supposed to be. With everything said and done, the content of episodes 20-22 could be compressed comfortably into 2 episodes. This episode should have been a setup episode for a Clannad S2...Seriously hoping they pull a D.C.II here... Remember that episode 22 is the FINAL EPISODE of the Clannad main storyline, hell it even says final episode. The remaining two episodes should be treated as either OVA's or Omake episodes. Can an anime administrator make the necessary changes and change Clannad from 22/23 to 22/22. This is a done deal folks...and now we wait for Haruhi S2 episode 13? for that teaser commercial for their future projects...xD Oh I forgot that episode 23 airs next week, maybe kyoani will make another end of episode announcement concerning an S2...so that moar people will pledge their firstborns to kyoani! xD and is it just me or did Akio turn his little inspirational speech into his own little play? I knew that he was serious, but it looks like an unexpected part of the play if I was a part of the audience. Akio sure can act...and exaggerate things...xD |

| I must admit I like happy endings but even more I like endings that clear up everything or come full circle of the story. With Clannad, I still felt that there was more to the story and some side stories that need to be finalized. I was hesitant at first when watching this series b/c it had somewhat a slow start, but it turned out fairly well towards the end. As it stands now, I'd give this series a definite 8/10. Maybe the "side ep" and the OVA will determine a different rating. |
 |
| ah everyone is crying except me... the ending was ok. the episode was ok. overall the series is good. i guess thats all i got to say... |
 |
| This was very good episode *loves* The confession at the end was great, I couldent stop smilng xD The only thing it lacked was a KISS! I was SO expecting one... *sigh* -.-; Akio was so cool xD hahaha! Well can't wait for the OVA! :3 |

| I liked this ending a lot. At least we whereat left with an AIR ending that leaves us asking our selves wtf just happened. Everything seemed to be answered for the most part. Well, for the exception of Tomoya. |

| Preview gave me hope for a Tomoya x Sunohara x Akio end. XD Best part of episode IMO. Meh. |
 |
| Umm yeah i'm very disappointed with this episode being the last... I didn't do anything for me at all. For KyoAni to hype up this series and have a crappy final episode >.> I really have nothing else to say. ~Watch the Clannad Movie~ |
Mai Waifu~ Louise  I love her with all of my heart and soul~ <3 |
| Akio's speech was great, everything else tho... seemed too rushed for me, also disappointed that Nagisa and Tomoya did not kiss! -__- |
    |
| Amazing ending. :D |
     |
| Amazing ending. Akio is WIN in this episode |
    |
| yes the main story is 22 episodes, but since there is an episode airing next week, we decided to count that in as well. Anyways, this was a good conclusion. I am so happy when Akio came when he did. I don't think I could've stand anymore of Nagisa like that. |
 |
| That was a fast conclusion to a very good series. Nice and cute. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Very nice final story episode. It didn't feel as emotional as I expected, but maybe I'll feel differently when I rewatch the widescreen release. |

| Such a great conclusion to the story. Loved the part where Akio entered the auditorium =D I knew I made the right choice, when I gave this anime a 10 ^^ |
| I don't know why I'm so disappointed about this episode, but I hated it so much that they messed it up, maybe too rushed or may it be that quite predictable, I was more grateful about Fuko Arc and Kotomi Arc than this "ending". But I still enjoyed the series, I still hope they will make a sequel to make this up. Even the disappointment on my side, I will not change my rating of 10/10. |

well some parts felt quite a bit rushed now, but for the way it turned out, not that bad. Faust721 said: I am so happy when Akio came when he did. I don't think I could've stand anymore of Nagisa like that. yes same for me - I was nearly at "ah fuck this and let's pull this fast forward a bit". But great act of Akio - man, what a father.. |
