| Just finished my re-watch for the second time. Yet I cried like the first time. lol. |
 |
| Dammit stop saying arigato,ok we get it , this anime is overrated imo. |

AllenVonStein said: Dammit stop saying arigato,ok we get it My thoughts exactly. Anyway I just finished it after 1 year...gap? Can't say I completely understand the ending (because maybe I missed a lot of things and just lazy to re-watched it) but it was easily memorable ending. I feel pretty bad for Otonashi. He got his life tough. Being dead in an accident before he accomplished his dreams, left behind by a girl he loved the most.... CMIIW, in another epilogue it shows him stay in the student council to do help a lost soul and waiting for "someone". I don't know if it just another alternative ending, or straight continuation from this original anime. Nice art, beautiful music and ost, pretty rushed story and lot of wasted potential, but overall I enjoyed it, so I'll give it 8/10 |

| The first half of the episode was great and humorous. But the second half was a bit weak. I feel Angel Beats great because of all kinds of nice humorous moments it has.The ending is nice but could have much better. I just got irrigated when Otonashi said Kanade that both of them would stay there forever. Thank God they disappeared like others.This makes the ending nice. Seeing the epilogue seems like Kanade n Otonashi are reborn.Perhaps all others have reborn.Its good. Although I feel Angel beats could have been much better,its a good show which makes u laugh and cry at the same time. Overall I give this show 8/10 |
 |
| Atlast Angle Beats! ends here. Nice episode. 👍 I like how the show ends. The story was simple but enjoyable. Kanade looks so cute. It was so emotional when she was about to leave. My tears came out at the time she disapear disapeared. I m not so sure if Yuzuru stayed in there or not. I wish Hidegi meets Yui after leaving the afterworld . The ending was nice. |
 |
| There is one problem with the ending. How does Kanade arrive earlier than Yuzuru? Kanade has Yuzuru's heart so that should mean that she died later than him and yet she was there when Yuzuru got there. |
| This turned out to be one of my favorite anime. Many strong emotions from laughter to sadness was felt. I would recommend this series to anyone. |
| I was really sad when i saw that this was the final episode because Angel Beats was such a enjoyable roller coaster of emotions but nothing hit me harder then the love confession scene before Tachibana disappeared which is something because i am not gonna sit here and say i don't cry during anime i will say it is harder for me then most. usually it has to hit really close to home for it to get to me and that is exactly what that scene did. Other then that scene the episode was great and i felt it was a good way to end a series and while a lot of people seem t be upset with the end credit scene i really enjoyed it because it then gives Fanfic writers a lot of room to continue the beloved story. Overall gonna give this a 9/10 episode and a 10/10 anime. |
notice_me said: If I recall correctly, both the manga and the Visual Novel confirm that the afterlife isn't bound to our space/time, meaning that there's no link between the time when you die and the time when you come to the afterlife. I'm not 100% sure on this, but Shiina comes from the 16th-17th century, for example. |
 |
| I enjoye the episode, shame though the whole series overall were so short :( |
| So Im guessing they got reincarnated and finally met again? It literally took me over a year to finally finish this series. I was watching one episode every few months; it's just really boring. The plot is so ridiculous that I just can't seem take it seriously and get myself interested. The only thing the kept me from dropping this is that I was told it get's better in the ending. Well it did got better but it wasn't nearly enough to change my opinion of this anime. It really makes me question if Jun Maeda is really a good writer because his latest work Charlotte is even worst than this. I mean loved Clannad after story, it's far from perfect - the first half I can only describe as boring shit with over-the-top melodrama but the second half really got me and just completely changed my opinion of the anime, I don't know if it's because of Jun Maeda's talent in writing or because of the other people working around it. I dont know. Well I'm just glad I'm done with this anime. |

| idk what to think, so much was left unexplained the last scene really pulled my heart strings but I have so many questions that needs answers |
| Not going to lie, I might have cried during the ending. |
 |
| So they were all fighting Kanade long before Otonashi showed up but she died with his heart before he got there... What?? |
| ...Is this what people hyped up so much? At least this awful show full of awful writing is done now. 2/10. The soundtrack earns it another point. |
| If you think this anime have massive plot hole, read this. here is theory why kanade arrived first. Before otonashi dead, he donored all his organs. Otonashi didnt have any regrets, so he was not going to afterlife after he died in that train accident. Thus, otonashi souls being reincarnated into someone. this someone (we can call it otonashi 2) was born right after otonashi dead and donored his heart (i think thats how reincarnation works). And the receiver of that heart was kanade. in afterlife before the ending, kanade said thank to otonashi bcs he made her youth longer. So i assume kanade was about 12 YO when she received otonashi's hearts. In this time, otonashi b's age was 0 yo. And then 4 years later, kanade was dead at age 16. in this time, otonashi b's age was 4 yo. And then kanade went to afterlife bcs she had regrets: couldnt thank the person who gift his heart to her. when she arrived in afterlife, otonashi was not in here yet. why? because otonashi soul was still inside otonashi b's body. Otonashi 2 still alive when kanade arrived in afterlife. Then, 10-15 years passed. Finally otonashi 2 is dead, and otonashi's soul finally able to go to afterlife to fulfill kanade wish. Fyi, kanade already in afterlife a decade or more before otonashi soul arrive. And this fact suits with my theory well. And yuri said in eps 12 that someone soul can come into afterlife to help another's regret, and soul like that usually getting amnesia when arrived. So otonashi soul go there bcs of kanade even he has no regret. (In otonashi's life at least, i dont know whether otonashi 2 has regret or no). After fulfill kanade's wish. I dont know whether it is fate or god's reward towards otonashi soul by helping kanade, they finally being reunited after reincarnated. Geezz, i hope this anime is well written such a wasted potential. It didnt tell us about the other sss member past, the programmer, and another mystery in afterlife. Fck the director. They should make it 20 or more episode. I demand remastered version of this anime. Or ova to explain them all. 8/10 bcs of massive plothole and lack of explanation. Can be 9/10 or 10/10 if it is well executed. I like all of the music though |
 |
| 10/10. I was confused with Kanade appearing there first too, but I highly doubt its a plothole. Personally, I feel Otonashi already passed on long ago and that left Tenshi in limbo due to her request being wanting to say thank you to him so Heaven pulled him down to free her from it. It was destiny of two that belong together. |
 |
| really good show with a powerfull story and quality in serval gernes. 10/10 i had hard time scoring this show cause i heard so much about it and cause everyone was so hyped about it my expectation was a bit to high but after some good thinking and the overly hype that kinda killed some moments for me put aside i still think its worth a 10/10. |

| I remember the hype around this anime years ago. Constantly I would say "I'll watch it some other time." Just now I watched each episode one after another....I'm disappointed. I give it a 6/10. The ending scene with Kanade and Otonashi being the last two left had me feeling a bit emotional especially how Otonashi was acting. The anime overall though was lacking, it's like all the other cast got a sort of "Yeah, their past life stories don't matter, they're all gone now and....yeah..whatever." I've finally checked this anime off the list. Time to check out some more stuff. XD |
 |
| Bleh i hate my self when i watch drama animes but meh.. This one was worth it! Lets talk about the ending a bit.. I cried like a freaking 10 year old baby when it drops the ice-cream. I don't know i have no words, i'll make a review later i just want to leave this here.. |

| Time for feel trip :3 |
| Last episode in my opinion was probably the most interesting..I really liked at this show the fact that the main character (otanashi) showed love interest to a side (mostly) character (kanade)..in the start I thought it would be a otanashi-yuri affair..anyways..there are many things unexplained...and some weirded me out..also I disliked this "sudden romance" it seemed kinda rush and random..cause they weren't a lot of episodes to show the development of the feelings for example tomoya x nagisa..on conclusion I'll give it 7/10 |
 |
| Thought it would've been better,considering it has a rating of 8.41 and almost 30k favorites. |
| Okay I really cried at the end too , lol I know this is an anime from years ago but I just watched it and I loved it , because of the awesome enjoyment I even overlooked the probs. But really tell, kanade died so she went after fulfilling her regret, what would it take for MC to leave , she could have simply not said it stayed with him, All that aside they see each other again in the real world okay that was far fetched but totally awesome, I loved that , so maybe they were reincarnated . Then in the epilogue MC s the new prez and helps people, But that makes u wonder didnt he end up like the guy who made angel player , and it says that guy was waiting and MC is too or someone says the like in the epilogue, since he is waiting it is also a possibility that kanade isnt dead , maybe a comma or something , and maybe if the realm doesent have a time frame maybe the MC ends up as the guy who makes angel player and its kind of a paradox, just shooting here. |

Lbi_ said: hey that cud be possible , like whoever dissappears from that world comes back 2 the real world , but that wudnt explain the epilogue thghIn my opinion, the last scene just means that Otanashi also left the school, and came back to the real world. |

And that the story is a cycle, they all will return in this world when Otanashi became a NPC and then once again he comes back, and this happend again and again and again to the infinity.

| Well... this was all a lot less impactful than it could have been. The graduation ceremony was cute and all, the most adorable being Yuzuru, when his voice got all shaky during his big speech. But the whole thing never went beyond "cute" for me. Yuri's departure was downright ridiculous, she gave Kanade a hug but not the boys, even though she spent a lot more time with them. And in the final scenes, Yuzuru and Kanade's love seemed forced to me. And don't even get me started on the stinger scene. |
| Personally got around to watching this. Clannad was like trauma to me and I try to avoid drama anime, but got around to this one finally. Loved this episode. This is going on my favorites and I THINK it will stay there. I enjoyed it enough to give it a 10/10, though if you were to ask me as a critique I would give something closer to a 8.5 maybe? If this was 24 episodes (may be to much but the standard) almost definitely would be one of the highest rated anime of all time. It's a shame that so many anime lose potential due to budgets( especially with episode count) |
