| Agreed Best Episode of After Story so far :D. |
 |
id said: 6/5 QFT. Just epic. I'm glad Tomoya at last pulled himself together. He was so clueless "father" before the end of this episode. |
 |
| Best After Story episode so far. It was really touching. Especially, the scene when Ushio tells Tomoya she is also allowed to cry in her dad's arms. I could feel tears coming out. Looking forward to next episode. |
| Amazing. This is my favorite episode so far from the latter half of this series. By far the most emotional. |
 |
| T_T wow, beautiful episode~ |
| this episode made me wants to cry >< it's touching when ushio says something like "first thing from daddy" >.> |
| One of the best episodes this season. Ushio was really cute throughout the whole episode and her bonding with her papa was really touching. It was really nice to get even more background story on Tomoya's father with the appearance of his grandmother. |

| This is the finals before the finals, I really cried, this is a beginning of a beautiful happy ending |
| So I was bawling through this entire episode. Thanks Clannad. Thanks alot. |
 |
| Damn you KyoAni. 3rd time I've ever teared during an anime. First was Kanon 2006 (Makoto) and 2nd was Air (Kanna). This ep made up for all the sub-par aspects of After Story thus far, in my book. |
 |
| This episode was just beautiful. I almost cried, and I don't have emotions. The last 3 episodes have been nothing short of masterful works of art and I'm tempted to say this is getting better than last season. |
     |
| Perfect... It had been a year since I cried. Thnx to Clannad season 2. My tears are back.. 18 had everything.. Tears and Smiles. In only 2 episoded. I started to love Ushio ;-;.. damn.. I know some part of the game story... Hope they go that way further till |
 |
| I cried. So much. I actually showed this episode to a friend who doesn't watch anime and she was bawling her eyes out. |
 |
| I cried. A lot. I'm glad I'm not the only one... I managed not to when Nagisa died, but now... |
 |
Amaya-no-Hime said: I bawled my eyes out. This seriously made me sadder than Nagisa's death. But, wow, now I know why everyone was saying that After Story's really emotional. QFT. Oh, wow... This anime is definitely in my favorites now. This is the third time this anime was made me bawl -- At the end of Fuuko's arc, the episode where Nagisa dies, and this one -- my tears started streaming as soon as Ushio-chan said how the robot toy was special because it was picked out by Tomoya -- her first gift from Papa... T_T I mean, I was actually SOBBING! |
 |
| In my opinion, probably the best episode of the series (CLANNAD and ~After Story~). And I, too, cried. (that's pretty normal for me though) I'm glad Tomoya's finally getting his life together and moving on. My prediction: It's only getting better from here on out. I just want to know who the 4 people are who hated it (must be spammers). kawaiigreen said: This is the third time this anime was made me bawl -- At the end of Fuuko's arc, the episode where Nagisa dies, and this one Same here except end of Kotomi's route too and a few other places. |

 |
| My god, this has to be among the five best episodes of anime I've ever watched. Couldn't stop crying after that ^ scene. |

| PAPA!!!! T_T |

| Awesome! Just when I think this series can't get any better, it does. So dam emotional. Ushio is awesome. I think they could have ended the series right here, but there must be something else which remains. I haven't played the game or anything but something has defintely got to give or the next few episodes. I really just hope Nagisa comes back to life (my theory as of right now is that she is trapped in the other world and hopefully and the end of the series Tomoya will go to the other world and get her back, through the help of Kotomi). |

| That was just I M P R E S S I V E. In episode 9 thread i said... juanker said: This one has been one of the best episodes I have seen in my whole "anime life". But this is THE BEST ONE. TaisukeKanou said: One of the best anime episodes of all time!! QUOTED FOR TRUTH! xdzzz said: First time I've cried watching anything in literally yeaars. Seriously, this was the most touching thing I've ever seen in my whole god damn life. It really is. One thing about this episode, is that almost everything about it was so perfect that I really wished it didn't end when it did. I can't get enough of Ushio, and when I have a child, I pray to god that i get the same feeling as i did when watching this. This anime has topped among my all time favorite, as i'm sure it has for many others. not 11/10, but yes... 12/10. I can't imagine seeing anything else even close to as epic as the end portion of this series. ever. production values, animation, voice acting,... EVERYTHING was as close to perfect as it can get. Best post i have ever read so far here on MAL. To be honest, i have only cried so hard twice in my life (Childhood does not count): the first time was watching Forrest Gump and the second time is right now, watching this episode. When Ushio asked Tomoya to tell her about Nagisa it was too much. I couldn't stop crying until 10 minutes after i finished the episode. |
  |
| Ever since I started watching anime I've seen Da Capo, KimiNozo, ef~, Kanon, Air - just to name a few that got me close to cryin' at some point. This was the first time I couldn't hold my tears. It was probably the first time in the last 6-7 years actually. |
| Beutiful. indeed it was. I'm so glad the made Ushio so much alike Nagisa. Dang,hard to keep the tears back.. |
| This was a really sad and cute episode ): It made me cry. I really liked it. Hiku. |

| Omg I fukin cried. How dare they make me cry!!!??!!??? |

| My favorite Episode.. This was so good it made me cry. This Episode alone justifies a 10 for AfterStory. "First thing from Dad" - I died crying |
XydenicWings said: iulli said: XydenicWings said: Please tell me something. 5 years have passed? That incredibly long timeline skip, tomoya doesnt seem to have any physical difference. I can't really accept the fact its already 5 years.. Tomoya is only about 24 or 25 now...I don't imagine he would change very much in that short amount of time. Then again, I guess it wouldnt hurt to make his appearence a little bit older looking. I thought he looked his age in ep 17. He can't be only 24/25 now.. Assuming hes 19 in the first season, we add 1 year for his year in the school. Another year for the time between working and marriage. And then another year for the birth of the child. So hes around 22 now. Five years later he should be 27... Thats really a long time skip there >.> How could he possibly be 19 in the first season?? You've graduated at that age(unless you're repeating a year). >.< He must be 17 in the first season. In the beginning of the second season hes 18 because hes in the third and last year. Then he works for a year or two then Ushio is born when hes 19-20. Five year time skip and hes 24-25. |

| Dude... I cried, how did this happen? |

It is specifically stated in the game that he's 18 years old when the story starts. So that makes him 21 when Ushio is born, and 26 in the events of this episode. |
| This episode was wonderful. Started tearing up when Tomoya was telling Ushio about Nagisa.. I'm so happy they are together now. I officially love this anime lol. 5/5 for this ep. |
     |
| I rarely cry or feel for anime, but tis one brings me close enough, though I admit not yet. |
 |
| Following the finale of TTGL, my single favorite episode from any anime. |
| Anyone with over 10 shows ranked at 10/10 clearly needs to re-evaluate their idea of a 'masterpiece'. |
| So I wasn't really sad when Nagisa died because I'd seen it coming since we found out she got sick a lot, but the part where Tomoyo was telling Ushio about Nagisa on the train seriously made me tear up. |
| Reminds me of Hughes death from FMA in a way. |
| |
| ugh, a couple of tear drops strolled down my face when Tomoya and Ushio cried in the fields, and a couple more when they were on the train. This is the first anime that has ever done this to me... I'm somewhat resentful now. |

| Hurray for family, seems this episode, the family theme continues to shine. |
| |
| Man, I almost teared up here. What a pain if I actually did cry for an anime. Although in my club, 60% of the people cried, males included. |
| Fear the finger of death |
| To me this has got to be one of the best episodes of the whole series, equalling, no actually exceeding episode 16. 19 was superb as well. Those revelations were simply superbly done. |
