Clannad (Anime) add (All reviews)
Jan 5, 2009
This is one of those anime that will make you cry (or almost) and smile with the characters. The title is a word that means "family" in gaelic and that is what this serie goes about, how we cannot live alone and even if we don´t realize it they are part of us and the most important thing in this life, the key for searching the hapiness, because, what do you live for when you are alone?

Everything and everyone can become a family, not only the ones with whom you share a bond of blood, also friends, couple, and any person who you love can become a family, and that is the most important thing of this life.

STORY: It could seem the typical harem story with a guy and a lot of girls but it turns better with each chapter. At the start is plenty of gags and funny moments but then the good part, the background of each girl, is what make you enjoy it.

ART:
What you can expect from KyoAni, the art is really beautiful, with an awesome use of the light, shadows and color. The characters look like if they were alive, they movements are fluent and everything looks shiny and beautiful.

SOUND:
The soundtrack is really pretty, with sad songs that go accord the drama and pretty piano melodies that will touch you. Especially Nagisa`s main theme, which melody is the same as the one used in the ED.

CHARACTERS:
The characters are well defined and each has is own personality. Tomoya, the main guy, can seem a bad guy but he helps all the girls with their problems. Although she can seem very simple I think the heart of the anime is Nagisa, the main female character. She is not very self confident but then she evolves pretty good, she is also very cute and she has an smile that tells many things just with looking at it.

ENJOYMENT:
The funny moments will make you laugh a lot and the drama will make you almost cry. But the happy moments will make you smile and you will feel very good.

OVERALL:
I think everyone who likes drama and happy stories will love it, because it teaches you the importance of the family, the bonds and how a smile can change everything. Is a very positive story plenty of beautiful message really useful for each one`s life.
