Story:
It was like any other school life anime you would expect, the usual heroine and hero,but as you get to know them, they became very unique.
Tomoya isn't like any hero, but one that starts out as a person who hated life, but the heroine Nagisa, changed all that after Tomoya encouraged her to try harder in life. She made school fun for him, thus making him enjoy life more, which could be what started off Tomoya's chain of events that helped him receive all those balls of light from helping all the people he knows.
Art:
Everything by KEY is all very beautiful, and fits the mood so well, that it almost made me want to be there! The art is so great, that it seem to out comparison the anime that you usually see, making the anime see almost real! There was no static characters at all, and they seem to very fluid.
Sound:
The Sound is also amazing. It fits the mood at the correct times, and it was also touching, alarming, and tearjerking at times when you are supposed to feel that way. The voice actors were really good choices too. Sunohara's VA was so perfect, that it made sense for Sunohara to sound like that, and act like that. I liked Tomoya's VA too, it also fitted his personality very well.
Character:
The Characters are really interesting, most of the heroines all seem to have some sort of tragedy, sickness or disability except a few. Though they have these, they are still very interesting in personality to the point you might think you would love to actually meet them, and talk to them.(you probaly can't anyways because you most likely don't know japanese)
Enjoyment:
This anime made me marathon it. Thats how good it was. It leaves you at some really interesting cliffhangers, and everything was so interesting and enjoyable to the point i felt regret that i marathoned this. It also left me in a depression for a few days due to how this anime started to end.
Overall:
Key makes very good art,sound and enjoyment. You can't even bring yourself to NOT finish any of their work. The only problem is that sometimes people can't bring themselves to actually finish the 1st season, so they miss this epic 2nd season.
