This series was basically like: "Hey, look, here's some sweet characters I want you to meet" but then it punched you 10x in the stomach while having iron gauntlets on, after that it was like "Hey, cheer up. Look, it's her cute daughter" and during that time it started slightly stabbing you in the heart and later it crushed your emotions with a giant hammer with a giant text saying "DESPAIR" on it but then it walked over to you and said: "There's still one final episode, so try to pull your shit together and watch it." and after that it extended an arm to you, helped you up (since you were lying on the floor - crying, with crushed feelings) and healed you and your heart, making it capable of feeling emotions again.
No it's more like it said "here have some icecream" then it triped yo. Just right so that your icecream got all over your favorite shirt. Then said "oh don't worry I'll but you more Icecream" but then slaps it out of your hand just as you try to lick it. Then after all that offers you more icecream, which you eat normally. Your shirts still fucked though. This represent the scar that CLANNAD has left on you.
i just sang this song countless times over and over in a row with the headphones plugged in and my family was like QUIET! who could not wanna hear this song, I actually two hours ago just finished the whole series for the fourth time and its still not boring!
i got so angry when when ushia and nagisa came back to life because i stopped when ushio died becasuse it was so sad a month later i continued and realised that they both came back to life and i was so angry and happy at the same time
Whomever disliked this song has no heart. Heating this song again after seeing this series a while ago brought back so many sad memories, I was getting teary eyed. And I am a 29yr old male. This entire series is epic! I dont watch american tv anymore after this
This show was and still is absolutely fantastic. The pacing is great, the characters are a great blend and representation of how a normal human would react to these situations based on their personalities. Add in beautiful visuals (especially on the Blu-Ray version) and you have an anime that will last quite a while indeed. However, I never cried. Not even at the second death (to avoid spoilers, the character will remain nameless).
i can't stop thinking about this anime. this anime has seriously changed the way that i look at life in a good way... it makes me happy, knowing that miracles do happen and are not part of some fake fairytale...
Every time I hear this song I think of all the turmoils and joys that the character's in Clannad went through and I can't help but break out in tears. Much too similar to hearing a song that reminds you of a loved one that passed away. Once you hear it you can't help but remember all the joys that you have shared with them and also in hearing the song only reminds you of the fact that they are no longer around.
Still gives me chills. When I first watched Clannad and Clannad After Story, i shed several tears of manliness. I learned so much just by watching this anime .. I realized how important my family really is and that one should never give up hope. I'm not gonna lie, Clannad will probably have a special place in my heart until the day I die.
This song makes me wanna cry all the time specially the dango daikazoku song to because there all so sad i love clannad and angel beats watching them both made me realizes i should live life to the fullest and have fun with friends i just love the stories behind them both there my two most saddest/ happiest animes ive seen ill never forget the time i started watching them both i cried the entire time
Clannad was ok... Clannad after Story OMG... my life is easy... im really happy that i watched it to show it to me. Love the series, love the characters, love the soundtrack... still feel so bad for everything that happan in the story... T_T
Everyone has their own orb of light for happiness. We just don't know when and where we will get it but it'll surely appear when we are happiest. This song alone makes me think that.
to those afraid to cry, i know how it feels like but just once in awhile its okay to cry, it helps get rid of stress and hatred built upped but unable to release
Warning: Watching Clannad After Story will make you weep floods of tears unless you have no soul!! I loved this anime, and it was the only one that made me cry like a baby.
i love this anime. its not a stupid unrealistic one (not that i dont LOVE naruto), but its good to have an anime which is very realistic, and it actually brings happiness and also sadness. this is the first time ive cried over an anime and i have to say, i love this anime so much. i never wanted it to end, and if they made a new series, i think i'd enjoy it. even though there isnt much to add to the anime, i'd still watch it, as ive lost abit in my heart as clannad ended :< CLANNAD I LOVE YOU!!!
I love anime like this that can play with your emotions so easily. No anime can make me cry as much as Clannad, laugh as much as One Piece, or get my blood boiling more than Naruto or Bleach.
i agree so much... This anime i will hold forever close to my heart also... now that i think of it, i never thought an anime could have this much impact and btw im still watching it for the first time! and still want it to go further than 2 seasons... i guess i just want this to go on forever... but im just saying crap...
This opening makes me a bit happy inside...I was sad when Nagisa and Ushio died but when ever I think of Death of people (like actual people) I always grin a bit...
@clannad092095 About 2 years ago I found out about Clannad. I watched the first season of Clannad online. I thought it was only decent. My parents recently got Netflix and I found volume two of Clannad and Clannad AfterStory. They were english dubbed, which I actually didn't mind for once (the voices fit very well). This anime literally changed my life. I've been dealing with severe depression for the past year since my brother commited suicide. I've had suicidal and self injuring tendencies
Niceeee! If I could, I'd buy this soundtrack for a change, instead of downloading it off the net. Just to put some cash into the pockets of the amazing artists who made it.
its complex. but i read about it and it explained it perfectly. at first it shows when Nagisa died, but in the final ep, the guy (Cant spell his name) wakes up but time has reversed and he sees nagisa when she was giving birth and he tthought he was seeing the tragedy happen all over again, but time had reversed and Nagisa's life was saved, thus fixing the story and making it so his child will grow up and live happily with no health problems. truly beautiful.
I cried all the time!!!! The song makes me more sad. :'( Its making me mad that everything is messed up. >:( I love them soooooo badley. I love Clannad. :D I wish Clannad series keeps going. :'( I'll miss you Clannad. :'( DANGO EVERY BODY!!!!!!!
@SunXieMei for months now. I was pitiful, even with medicine and therapy.. But just last week. I started to rewatch Clannad. All of it this time. The After Story was so wonderful. I couldn't stop crying while watching it. A show has NEVER made me cry like this. Endless tears of sorrow, and at the end of the series, endless tears of joy. I feel so invigorated, so inspired, so happy... and I am definitely more curious about string theory and will finally get around to reading some books I bought
This is a cute song! I luv Clannad and Clannad afterstory. Theyre both dramatic and very curious. Its a beautiful masterpiece! ALL credits to Key Visual Arts, the amazing ppl who made the anime series Air, Kanon, Clannad, and Clannad afterstory!
I wish I could just continue rewatching this anime over and over again but I know it would lose it's charm. I've watched it twice now only because I want to keep gaps between the times I rewatch it so I can experience it's charm again and again.
I know I’m late but you’re not the only one, I finished watching Clannad less than a month ago. I still like to rewatch some episodes from Netflix during my spare time.
