| i just didn't get the point of kanon 2006 and air was somewhat tolerable. angel beats was good but nothing really jumped out. Clannad is hands down the best thing Key put out |
| 1. Clannad 2. Angel Beats 3. Air 4. Kanon (2006) Kanon was the only one that didn't leave me in tears. I don't know why people like it. xD; Personally, it was the worst of their animes. I saw it about.. a year and a half ago? Not sure. But I was left unimpressed. Clannad was definitely the masterpiece here. Ever notice how they follow seasons? Air was summer, Kanon was winter. Clannad was spring, because of the cherry blossoms. I guess that means Angel Beats was fall? |

Fall was actually represented by the game "One: Kagayaku Kisetsu e", which Key's founding members made while still with the company, Tactics. It was made into an OVA in 2001 by KSS |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| Sometimes Kanon and Clannad switch places as my favorite.. I love both dearly. 1. Clannad (As a whole, including AS) 2. Kanon 3. Air Air was okay, I just wish they could've done more with the characters. Kano and Minagi were just kinda there...I didn't really feel for them. :/ I like Kanon more than the first season of Clannad, but with After Story I'd prefer Clannad. :3 I just watched the first episode of Angel Beats! last night..I'm not that interested..but I think I'll conitinue watching it anyway. |
 |
| Clannad i loved, but it made me cry like the biggest cry baby on the planet. Air i watched backwards by mistake and didn't get much of it but i still liked it. Kanon i loved even with the characters started dying/ vanishing ect. Angel Beats had the same effect as Clannad But the story at the end of all of these animes were well constructed in their own way |
 |
| the best? Clannad season 1 and 2 of course!! |
tuhi009 said: the best? Clannad season 1 and 2 of course!! Kind of a pointless statement if it comes from someone who, according to his list, hasn't seen any of the other shows. Just sayin'. |
| 1. Clannad (both seasons) 2. Kanon 3. Angel beats 4. Air Well.. Love them al, but I'm not that much into Air.. The story was kinda weird and slow.. Clannad ofc is epic. Without a word. Kanon.. I love characters and climate in it.. as the all story.. And I was so suprised when Angel Beats turned out to be something soo good. I cried at all of them xd |
| 1. Both season of Clannad 2. Angel Beats 3. Air 4. Kanon clannad was just an emotional roller coaster packed with everything. while angel beats was just overall a really fun show to watch. i didn't really like air or kanon though. =/ |

| Angel beats I dont like the rest... |

Clannad was definitely the masterpiece here. I have to be honest with my feelings and say that some of the negative things said about Kanon 2006 are unnerving and how it is so underappreciated. I liked it because it did move me to tears when there were sad moments and it made me smile and laugh when there were happy moments, like Shiori's bithday party. How can anyone not be moved to tears when Nayuki's mother's life was on the line and Nayuki was in a situation where she could lose her, or for the others who have gone through painful situations? As far as how I would rank the Key series that have been adapted into anime is this... 1.Kanon 2006 2.Air-Like Kanon 2006, I loved this series as well although it could've been longer to develop the story better. 3.Clannad-Tomoyo/Kyou OVA's-Refreshing takes on the Clannad series with what could of been if Tomoya chose Tomoyo or Kyou, pairings I like better than Tomoya with Nagisa. Clannad as a whole would've been worthy as a masterpiece if Tomoya had been either with Tomoyo or Kyou. 4.Clannad/AS- 5.Angel Beats-Wasn't really interested in watching this one. Kanon 2006 FTW! |
kanon-chan said: I have to half-agree. There's the whole fact that Clannad borrowed several plot points from Kanon. I wish other Key series would get their opportunity to shine since Clannad and Kanon were, in the end, too similar in mood. And yes, Sunohara sucked as a sidekick, but Tomoya was a sad sack of a main character. Heck, the anime made him nicer since he was a total punk in the game.Lulu-chama said: 1. Clannad 2.

I saw from previous posts that you'd like to see Little Busters adapted into an anime, I'd certainly would like to see Little Busters made into an anime myself. The characters of the series look to be very interesting and I'd watch it. |

Clannad as a whole would've been worthy as a masterpiece if Tomoya had been either A good point which I hope you don't mind me expanding on a bit (although I wonder about masterpiece personally). Those two pairings always made more sense to me than the main one . I mean it seems like Tomoya and Kyou have a very good repertoire in terms of their conservation its barely ever dull although that doesn't mean that they're never awkward (these awkward conservations appear a lot less compared to the other heroines though). The reason for Kyou's affection also seems to make more sense after all in their second year of High School they were in the same class and this strikes me as a more convincing reason for her affection than say childhood friend or a destined encounter. Both of the characters have a mutual understanding and respect for each other which was gained from the length of their relationship beforehand and the assumed closeness of it. Similarly with Tomoyo its quite obvious from the flow of their conversations how comfortable they are with each other and how much they enjoy each others company. This pairing conjures up an image of 'kindred spirits' which describes the two character's relationship quite well. They've had similar experiences the main ones being their broken families and their isolation from society this allows the two characters to have a deeper understanding of each other and thus are a more convincing couple whose affection actually seems justified. |

| i quite liked the different endings for clannad i hope they make a kyou afterstory just as they did with nagisa and tomoyo in the vis novels (kyous is still missing) |
| Love doesn't exist only companionship ... those you love will always walk away but your companions will always look out for you ... moral of the story - look for a companion not a love intrest |
Tharand said: Lol, seemed reason enough for Ryou. That said Kyou just liked him cause their personalities were similar, plus all other guys were scared of her.won_o_wisp said: The reason for Kyou's affection also seems to make more sense after all in their second year of High School they were in the same class yeah that's TOTALLY a reason for people to fall in love with each other.

| i love angel beats so cute ^^ |
| Clannad. While the first season wasn't bad either, the second just blew the helluva outta just about every anime out there. Tharand said: tuhi009 said: the best? Clannad season 1 and 2 of course!! Kind of a pointless statement if it comes from someone who, according to his list, hasn't seen any of the other shows. Just sayin'. Not everyone updates their list as religiously as to show every single anime they've watched. Just sayin' won_o_wisp said: The reason for Kyou's affection also seems to make more sense after all in their second year of High School they were in the same class I think Kyou had always liked Tomoya, and whether or not they're in the same class hardly matters. I might be in the minority if I say this, but I felt Clannad AS would have taken a better turn if Tomoya married Kyou after Nagisa's death and lived happily ever after. Yea, I'm serious. |

| Clannad's comedy is overshadowed, but it's pretty great (at least in the first season and the beginning of the second). Air and Angel Beats weren't that funny (haven't seen Kanon). |

If Kyou, why not Tomoyo or Fuuko instead? |
AdamReynolds said: They shouldn't have killed Ushio to start with. That was just forced drama to instigate Tomoya into seeking the selfish miracle.Leon-Gun said: cooldra01 said: No you aren't wrong here.

| For me... 1. Angel Beats 2. Clannad 3. Air 4. Kanon 2006 Although the Visual novel version of Clannad beats all of them for me. |
KingXander said: Although the Visual novel version of Clannad beats all of them for me. lot's of people say that, think i'm going to givi it a shot (never uh seen a VN before haha) |
| I chose Angel Beats! Clannad and Angel beats come close~ but my vote goes out to angel beats! A big thing that makes me decide if I like the anime or not is if I like how the characters look, both anime I loved the how the characters looked, but I was leaning a bit more towards the characters in angel beats! secondly the lighting/effects in both were really good it set the mood, thirdly the music this is where angel beats got my vote, I absolutely loved the music from Girls DeMo so my vote goes out too Angel Beats! hooraah! bring on season 2! :P |

| ANGEL BEATS!!!! Air was just kind of well too sad for me Clannad was great but I like angel beats more and ive never watched kanon so I cant say |
| I like what I have seen of all the shows. But I've only finished Kanon. So I can't judge perfectly. |

Oh boy... Sorry I should have made it a bit clearer I was referring to episode 23 of Clannad:AS where it is quite obvious that Kyou became interested in Tomoya after they became classmates. |
| I liked Angel Beats! the best. 2. Clannad (both) 3. Kanon Haven't seen Air yet.. I don't really know why I like Angel Beats! the most. Maybe cause it's the newest? Maybe cause Angel Beats had a variety of characters? Or maybe cause it didn't have anyone making crazy tasting bread/jam? lol |
 |
| Clannad Win in all aspects of all XD Angel beats have a serious defect, which is to introduce too many characters and a few episodes to develop them. |
 |
| ^ same as me. AB! will never beat clannad ... Kanon just sucks ....... |
| Honey and Clover. |
| Well, for me it's: #1 Kanon (2006) - Its cosy atmosphere and moe levels are incredible enough for it to be my favorite of the lot #2 CLANNAD - Impeccable in every aspect, but Fuko and Nagisa don't quite match up to Ayu-chan #3 AIR - Though chronologically it came out first, it felt a tad too much like a lesser copy of the afore mentioned (for me). Side characters had no real development but Misuzu's story was nice and unique and I liked it a lot. #4 Angel Beats - Ain't even gonna waste my breath (fingers) here; it's a decent (looking) anime but it doesn't come close to works of Key x KyoAni |
 |
| 1: Clannad & AS- nothing that i have ever watched before has brought me to tears like clannad has 2: Air 3: Angel beats 4: Kanon (2006) |
 |
| 1. Angel Beats! 2. Clannad 3. Kanon Haven't watched air, so can't rank it. |
mindflayer said: Air, the VN, was made after Kanon (Kanon released on 1999 and Air on 2000). The main reason they may seem similar in some form may be because Maeda Jun was the one who worked on the scenario of both games.#3 AIR - Though chronologically it came out first, it felt a tad too much like a lesser copy of the afore mentioned (for me).

I forgot there was a 2002 version of Kanon anime; wasn't aware that the visual novels were released in that order as well. |

| 1. Clannad, by far. 2. Air 3. Kanon Haven't seen Angel Beats!. |
| I watched only clannad and angel beats, and between them first season of clannad except fuko arc owns other. |
