  • Key has yet to make an anime that DOESN'T involve some sort of fantasy element to it. If you didn't expect the Orbs of Happiness to play any major part in the story, then you fail. Horribly.

  • I think the anime would've been better if they'd left Nagisa dead, but kept Ushio alive..... Nagisa was one of my favorite characters, so it's not like I WANT her dead.... but I think the series would've made more sense... ish..

  • love the anime, love the opening. but why the hell are there 8:30 min of nothingness after it?????

  • @cutepets1012 its to savior the sadness! Like a silent gravestone.. only visual.. anyway! Its to remind us how easy something wonderful and splendid like a certain Clannad-character can end, and that this 'eternal end' is painfully silent compared to the flow of life which happened before. Its our memories which are the only lead in this darkness of an end, which wants us to replay this lively song asap

    This is my take why the hell there are 8:30min of nothingness after it!

  • I love the piano in this!!!

  • The song better in the animae

  • Don't watch this anime, if you want to keep your mental health. It fcks your head with unrealistic expectations of good life. Reality will look dull after this and then you are doomed to depression.

  • @muumisoitin to right mate

  • My head hurts badly due to extreme amount of sadness I got exposed to while watching this anime. I just finished it.

  • Does anybody else love those first few seconds with that weird sound, those lights railing in an upward curve, and the opening piano? It's the perfect mood-setter. I can't stop starting the video over just to see/hear it.

  • when ever i hear this opening i cry because its so beautiful. the anime was great. the story was sad but lovely. i cried in the episodes where nagisa (i think) died :( but i watched it like 3 times anyway. 

  • before I knew about the after story I was all WTF because the movie and ova made me confused

  • 24 hours in a row is all i need to finish both seasons + OVAS + Movie. It's THAT good -:)

  • me da tanta pena esta cancion pero es tan linda

  • I actually searched for the piano music just to hear it agian, and it brought back such a feeling of overwhelming nistalgia. I always seem to forget about this true jem of a show, but some how it always finds a way to worm itself deeper and back into my heart. <3

  • somebody anybody can you please tell me where i can see the after story part 1 and 2 i dont know where, netflix dont have it i need 2 see this 

  • i wanna find the person that made this and give them a friggin handshake and a 20 dollar bill and say keep up the good work i absoulutley loved clannad

  • Truly on of the best animes out there.

  • why is th vid 10 moins 0_e

  • @4EverS0ra bcuz it can be

  • @gimmechickenwings lol i put moins haha hey mann!!! >:p

  • @4EverS0ra quit cryin bitch

  • Fuck you people who scold clannad go n die

  • If u watch it properly... Clannad will forever give you the best ending

  • i only watched clannad not after story

  • @XJerJerX1 you should right now, clannad is only a support on which the true masterpiece stands. After story is what's truly the best of the best

  • @XJerJerX1 Yeah go watch After Story if you haven't yet. Clannad is nothing compared to After Story in terms of how powerful (emotionally) it is. Clannad 1st season = very good anime but didn't quite have the push it needed to make it stand out as much as it should. 2nd half of After Story = One of the most tragic animes I've ever seen(at least until the ending..), and really is what makes Clannad so good.

  • @XJerJerX1 you should but after story is sad but it has alot of story to it

  • The closest I came to crying was Ushio's death. That little girl made all of After Story worth watching for me and to watch those cute little arms fall limp...fuck.

  • Great anime. I wish I could find a REAL girl like Nagisa or Tomoyo cause they r so nice and hot. Too bad that not many of these girlz exist

  • i luv dis anime!..but the after story wz rlly sad....i cried ALOT!

  • if only this continued ]:

  • @MeanyT22 no .. the ending is perfect .. but this will be fun if they can do this like Da Capo .. i want to see Ushio grew up

  • @JasonAMV me too :D

  • i regret watching this anime. watching is like having a very close friend who you spent all ur time with, die. you really get attached to the characters. when they killed off nagisa it was so painful. this is not the problem. the problem is they spend 5 more episodes to savor the sadness, then crap out a divine intervention happy ending. gave me the jitters the day after i went back to work.

    it had SO much potential to be one of the best animes, but they had to fck up the ending..

  • @bearruler From the begining it led to this, they just didn't show it that much but hinted it, it was made by the visual novel story. Those glitters are the main point of it actually. ^^

  • @bearruler no .. FAIL!~

  • @JasonAMV what? type more please, thnx.

  • @bearruler

    I understand your frustration somehow, but i think you should play the visual novel. it's ending is better + it changes with the decisions you make in the game/VA.

  • @bearruler did you finish it beacause well happyness comes back in well a weird way

  • @bearruler You might want to edit your comment, or at least warn for a MAJOR SPOILER

  • @bearruler If it didn't go down that path then it wouldn't be a unique anime and I would have watched it once and forgotten about it.

  • @bearruler I knoo this anime is so fkn sad ! >__< whyd they make it nagisa die's? ughhh TT__TT

  • @bearruler I'm sorry if this sounds rude but did you watch all of Clannad? SPOILER TO ENDING Nagisa did NOT die The dude was just day dreaming what he think might happen in 5 years of his life in 2 minutes (AMAZING!).

  • @TheAwesomenessgirl yes i watched it all. no he wasnt daydreaming. there were little orbs of light that were used by the other ushio from the other world to travel tomoya to a dimension where nagisa and ushio didnt die. it was just a very cheap copped out by some divine miracle, ending.

  • @bearruler You're a complete idiot if you think the story would be better with Nagisa staying dead. The emotional impact of the event was enough, if they didn't reverse it by the end (and quite honestly they don't lead on that they will, at all) then the anime would end on a shitty note. It'd make every previous episode useless and pointless. Especially since without "divine intervention" Ushio also would have died, and Tomoya is very likely to have died too. Wow..great ending, right?...psh.

  • @Upup2211 Um, lets not use unnecessary insults k thnx. Also, who said i wanted a bad ending to replace an already bad ending? Maybe they could have made an great ending through their deaths as some kind of lesson or through some kind of acceptable way or if earlier parts were changed they could've died and lived a different way. Anything but the half assed ending as lets kill 2 main characters and then reverse everything through magic. Would work if this was a magic anime but its a sliceoflife.

  • @bearruler lol

    why do you think that that time-reverse crapped out the anime ?

    maybe it really is something possible, but it's only available for those who actually deserve it :P

    that's the beauty of it.

    && tomoya certainly deserved it.

  • @AlexRmX4Europe no. don't say things with no bases.

    it felt crappy cause it was rushed and too magical for this slice of life anime.

  • @bearruler well..

    it's not really on no basis,

    it's the exist-not-exist theory, or how it's called... because something actually exists, anything is possible to happen, and if nothing had existed then nothing was possible

    but of course, it wouldn't be fun if the beings in this world could do anything, so every being is restricted by certain laws,

    so practically.. we truly are able to do anything as long as we respect the laws of the world we live in

    and that's not just philosophy, it's logic :P

  • @bearruler if you want to see only the 'realistic' part of the anime, then don't watch the last eps xD

  • @AlexRmX4Europe exactly.. why didn't they end it realistically?

  • @bearruler that ending is the TRUE ending of the visual novel, which came years before the anime. Those of us who played the visual novel didn't mind it at all because we KNEW it was coming. We even became attached to that ending, had they not used the ending that they used and made their own original ending.....well, let's just say hell would have broken lose hahaha.

  • @Shinigami186 thats a lame reason. we started it bad so we gotta end it bad. large amount of the audience hasn't played the visual novel so that sure pleases a small crowd, if any.

  • @AlexRmX4Europe & the same thing is said in the Bible as well. Jesus says it Himself - 'if you truly believe then, i can tell you right that you can tell this mountain to move and it will move'

    now, i'm not that much into plain believing,

    but as long as i found that logic to it, i really do believe that is possible somehow, we just don't know how, or we just don't have a good enough reason for it to happen... :P

    so dk..

  • @bearruler How do you think they should have ended it?

  • @bearruler how did they screw up the ending?

  • @bearruler It IS one of the best animes :P

  • @bearruler Hey go f'ck your self this was a great anime and they didn't screw up the ending and anyone that gave you thumbs up can go f'ck themselves too, and btw you are a dip shit for writing spoilers on the comments because its not like people that haven't finished the anime don't read comments or nothing you piece of shit.

  • @bearruler *SPOILER* You are so RIGHT! I felt the same way about this anime! Wonderful characters and story. Crappy "deus ex machina" ending. If only it ended in episode 20, before Ushio gets sick, it would have been so much better. They also could have given Kyou a shot, since she was Ushio's teacher and probably still loved Tomoya. Why Key Animation? You had great potential in your hands and wasted it with a horrible ending. WHY?!

  • @TheTalespramos For as much as I share your sentiments, the anime sadly didn't pan out that way, and the side characters were mostly ignored. I'm still very happy with what I got, as I'm sure you are as well. :)

  • @SJtheMFZB Yeah, this anime is really great, but I hate the way it ended. It could have been SOOOOO much better, if the ending was more realistic.

  • @bearruler OMG That's how I felt with Air TV D''x I bawld my eyes out when Misuzu died...she was such a lovable character...;''(

  • @bearruler reachin to the choir!

  • @bearruler I think you're missing the multidimensional aspect. And I believe the happy ending is there for us. There is a trend to make stories more "real" which means no happy ending. Either characters die or the goal is not reached. But Clannad gives us both. It rips our hearts out and makes us cry "Not this, not this, why/how would you do that to him? But in the end it shows us the multiple dimensions, that maybe he experienced so much pain in order to appreciate everything .

  • @bearruler i liked the happy ending.. if it didnt end well... id still be a wreck. lol 

  • @bearruler

    NO I GOT SPOILED!

  • I have yet to find the girl of my dreams... the girl who looks as beautiful as an anime girl yet not creepy!

  • Why did Tomoya he said always that If he didn't meet nagisa it will not become this And why is he dreaming about nagisa's death

    Tell me about it

    i don't know if i am correct plss correct me if i am right

  • @shackkleice sorry for alte reply, If Tomoya never meant Nagasi he thought she wouldnt have died and had a better life. 2 he wasnt dreaming, period. he wa either in shock or was given another chance by the chance thing ( if u watched in detail u would know of the old scholl president and her story, it may also relate to that )

  • I liked this opening WAY more than the 1st season's opening theme.

  • That's some downright amazing quality right there. I've seen other people make the videos 10:00 mins long like for Shakugan no Shana but this is just amazing.

  • what program can you use to make a clip like the clip when the opening is introducing the characters??

  • Amazing. Thanks for posting.

  • The Epicness of Clannad in its entirety... :)

  • Wow you're right, that is indeed interesting, the video quality is soo high for Youtube xD

    Thanks for uploading! I love this opening :D

  • @Yoshi17th You are very Welcome~!! ^^

  • Love this show <3

  • Clannad is a beautiful Anime.

    After Story simply is really sad sometimes...

    I'm a guy that usually don't cry during sad moments, but hell, when i watched the sad moments in Clannad After Story i could barely hold my tears!

  • @krbernh I feel exactly the same.

  • @krbernh i frickin agree to u man T_T though i wasnt able to hold my tears >_>

    good thing i locked my room that time muhahaha >:D

  • Comment removed

  • @krbernh Barely?! Now way I could stop crying! D...=

  • Why is the other 8:30 part of the video blank?o.o

  • @GMTienchi "It is 10 min long because the bitrate makes the video at start looking very good and while going to the end the image looks worse and worse, so the rest is black screen so it evens out the bitrate meaning that the start is longer and therefore the best quality remains even while Youtube processes it, it can't really be seen until uploaded to Youtube. If you want to test it out, upload 1 high quality picture with a longer video and..." Read the description, it is all there.

  • @Clatterpinch hehe, a cockroach. Never saw her like that, interesting. xD

    This Anime was made from the Clannad visual novel. Nagisa in it was the main character and only one that lead to after story arc so naturally to tell the whole story she must have been chosen.

    Clannad was actually about the other world that was dying away, that girl that became part of it could send him through time because she was in another world. If anything, this Anime is very deep and it's characters too.

  • atleast you admit you cried! just like all of us....

  • Clannad is flawless. Its known far and wide as a masterpiece. Every second of the composed music, every spoken word, colors and animation. From laughing to crying. The story has similar elements of 90% of anime, no shit. Nobody pulls it off like Key, not even close. I went on 300 missons with my buddy in iraq and when he died I didnt shed a tear. this show had me bawling like a child. Invoke emotion. Its what key does, reguardless of who you are. Nothing even comes close to clannad.

  • I think your the one who is disgusting clatterfuck. do you think he had room to cry in the middle of a battle field? i dont think he would be here right now if he just started crying in one place

  • @both of you Hey, you should not flame each other, this is a nice community and there are kids watching comments too. If you fight at least do it in a nice manner or i will remove your posts in the future. Find a truce both~ ^^

  • clatterpinch, i'm sure i saw him insulting something on another user, its probably just me

    oh well, just remove their comments, they're jerks (i would curse but hey)

  • Comment removed

  • If someone makes such an amazing anime again ill kill myself because im positively sure its impossible to make something like this again (so i can say this and stay by my word caus it wont happen)- its one of a kind.

  • @Clatterpinch Did u watch it till end and both seasons? If not then you should, its not mediocre nor ordinary, there is no Anime like it. You can't blame it for using the school life and love genre, its just that a genre, hehe. Don't worry it is quite good, just watch it and enjoy it~ ^^

  • Yes. I watched it all, and it was okay. It uses the same characters as every other harem.

    Tsundere - Check

    Moe - Check

    Quiet Bitch - Check

    "Delinquent" - Check

    Main Character Dies - Check

    It uses the same plot that we've all seen a hundred times before. I give it a 7/10 at least, because it pulled it off better than most other shows can, though.

  • you must have been drunk or high if you realy cant apreciate the anime. its sad that you feel this way.

  • I find it sad that Americans appreciate the mediocre these days. It's pretty much Kanon 2.0. Sanae = Nayuki's mom, Nagisa = Nayuki, that quiet bitch = Kotomi, Kyou = That One Chick That Sunohara Clone Liked, Ryou = The Sick Bitch, Fuuko = Uguu Girl Whose Name I Forget

  • im not american btw--- besides that, if you dont like it, why did you feel the need to come here and start ranting on about it? did it make you feel better inside? or where you just bored?

  • Also, another tsundere is Makoto.

  • That**

  • The video quality of this, is like a perfect diamond *0*

    After watching so many animes, I honestly recommend this one to anybody who loves anime no matter what genre they watch. It's a perfect blend of comedy, drama, and action they only Key can do.

  • @GMTienchi and romance :D

  • what a wonderful anime. i am in love with Ibuki Fuko!

  • what this song called?

  • Toki wo kizamu uta

  • This anime is truly AMAZING! I think that it is very similar to AIR so i LOVE it! =3 AIR is just as good as clannad in EVERY way i LOVE the openings for both AIR and Clannad

  • if you are a boy and you said yhat you never cried and you DID watch the anime than YOUR'E A LIAR

    sorry for my weir english :$

  • No i admit it well sorta I ALMOST cried when Fuuko left XD

  • @HAVOCprojects

    Ahh, it seems like everyone loves just posting spoilers here on YouTube. Oh well, maybe it can prove that people can live without a brain.

  • i ADORE this anime i have memorized some of the fricken dango song!!! In my mind mind i have created a part 3 ^ ^

  • this anime even some are saying that men do not cry i will say it now and admit even men can cry this anime is the first anime that made me cry

  • yes if ur a guy u will fall in love in this anime, just like i did, it even made me cry more than once

  • wew... judging by the song.. i felt sadness o_O is this anime good?

  • This anime is Something you fall in love with. even if u are a guy!!

  • @Duragster Especially if you're a guy ;) The girls don't find Tomoya cute apparently XD

  • THis is Not a Good Anime ITS A AWSOME UNBElEIVEABLE ANIME!!! its on number one of top 500 animes

  • Comment removed

  • hell yes do NOT watch the movie first (the episodes are way better)

  • I did by accident... it was good nonetheless

  • I've always liked afterstories opening better then 1st one

  • clannad after stroy is really sad i finished watching it along time ago but i cant stop thinking about it. when i finished watching the series i was depressed for 2 weeks and it was not good. i was emotional over every thing. i time my girlfriend made me fried eggs and she messed up i cried over it. it was really sad and pathetic!!!

  • Maybe you should try the visual novel too, its very good and makes you get the series even more, you will see that its not sad at all~ Well, some arcs are tho~ But its like one of the best visual novels i have ever read~ ^^

    Don't worry about it, its good to be open and i bet your girlfriend appreciates that very much, especially your honesty. You are a very good guy and you proved us that now and today, so don't think bad of yourself~ ^^

  • i dont get epsidoe 25? anyone else get it?

  • Everyone ends up happy xD

  • I LOVE Clannad soo much =D Just one thing I can't stop thinking of... Where in Japan do they live? *hummm* xD I've tried to search for it, but can't find the answer anywhere... Do any of you guys know? =)

    ~Emilie

  • I know but i forgot the name, search for what Key used to draw as a reference. They always use real places as reference to draw from~ ^^

  • Thanks! :)

  • You are very Welcome~!! ^^

  • @FinalFlash0 forgot what?

  • Forgot the name of the place they used. ^^

  • Watching this opening makes me sad because it reminds me of the opening to Air TV (such a sad show ;_; Key likes to make their anime really sad). How they did the thing with the girls' silhouettes turning into the sky is just like what they did in the Air TV opening.

  • it's like the opening of air..lol

  • wait- i'm just now finishing the first season- does Fuuko ever actually wake up??? if anyone knows. . .

  • Spoilers

    Yes she does towards the end of season 2

  • thank you! ^^

  • Yes.

  • keeeeeeeep watching

  • yes fuko wakes up she is soooooo kawaiii!!!

  • im on episode 14 of the first season... i really hope fuu-chan wakes up D;

  • I'm curious, what was your response to the wedding?

  • it made me really happy that fuu-chans sister got to see her. or at least feel her there. but i finished both seasons last night and it sucks that no one remembers seeing her at school

  • That didn't get me so much as when Sanae forgot her; some movies have brought me to tears before, but Clannad was the first TV show to make me tear up, and that scene was the first ANYTHING fictional to make me sob.

    Seriously, I was a wreck for a while there.

  • i cried some during the first season too but i cried ALOT more during the 2nd season.. i started to hate the anime when i found out that Nagisa passed away... but i continued to watch it and im uper happy that it had a good ending ^_^

  • Episode 16 of Clannad: After Story made me cry and the effects didn't wear off until 24. That's the first time I've ever really "cried" to something emotionally EVER. The effects only wore off on episode 24 due to SPOILERS. Clannad got me close to tears with Kotomi's story but Clannad: After Story is the first thing that could ever really do it for me. That's what makes it one of my favorite shows.

  • heh, i cried in the first season when Fuko diasppeared, then in the second when nagisa, and ushio SPOILz.. it was very sad =[

  • Wait, actually the effects wore off on episode 22 (duh).

  • yay im done wth both series yay i also have Toki wo Kizamu Uta on my mp3 annd Dango i dont know how to spell the rest but i luv soooo much im restarting all the series again

  • hehe, thats great to hear and thanks allot for choosing this video to comment about Clannad!! ^^

  • can u plz tell me the name of the song?

  • In case no one else has told you yet, it's called Toki wo Kizamu Uta. :3

  • lol XD

  • love this anime, i finally after putting off watching the last 3 episodes of this finally did, im happy the way it ended, i just wish there was more!
