this ending has two perspectives, either he wasn't actually dead in a coma as the translation speaks, OR he did die and tomoyo finally went to meet with him.
Tomoyo: Every time, Everytime, I'm the one waiting for you
Tomoyo: From our first seperation of eight month...to the 3 year that you are sick...then you fell asleep..how long would you let me wait until you are satafisied
Tomoyo: I already..and..
Tomoya: Sorry, but I promise, I will not let go of your hand, this time it's your turn to be happy, I will let you be happy
Tomoya: Come, let's go, toward that Wonderful Life
he wakes back up after his coma and is reunited with her.. not to bad for the memorial addition ending... i do know for fact he died the original.... and I can't handle that...
Okay, I've finished Clannad, both the VN and the anime and I almost cried, almost. Out of all of the routes I wanted Tomoya to be with Tomoyo because it seemed like those 2 clicked the most, besides Kyou. I mean all those 2 ever needed were each other, and even though the ending was tragic, they still ended up with memories that would last a lifetime and for the both of them that was enough. This ending single-handedly brought me on the verge of tears. One word for Key, Bravo.
I remember seeing a picture where Tomoyo is holding Tomoya's decapitated head while crying... is there an ending where Tomoya gets decapitated? Please tell me there is not...
I love this game. I just wish Key made an anime out of this. I think they only made this game to satisfy the fans. Since most Clannad fans like Tomoyo over nagisa. Still nice ending. Is Key the masters of sad shit I swear unless you get the Good ending all the other endings for all there games are so damn depressing.
noooo... the tears won't stop pouring out. I love everything about the Clannad universe, but especially Tomoyo's stories. It's simply one of the most beautiful things I've ever watched/read/seen/heard in my short time on Earth. Now I'm going to go into my state of depression (which happens every now and then) and cry/think/space out while wrapped in my blanket. Ever since I first watched the anime series, I've decided to make everything in my life count and to live positively and work hard!
Tomoyo really is the best route. I always felt that Tomoya & Tomoyo truly understood what eternal love really meant. Tragic as the ending was, those two would do it all over again in a heart beat because those memories were so precious. Tomoya x Tomoyo still my favorite romance of all time.
@kagesoultaker They both are fine in this ending its the others that are the Tragic ones. He comes out of the coma and they live happily from there on.
WHA-? HOW? Just once I wish Key would make something that isn't downright depressing at the end. Is there an ending where Tomoya survives? Where you have to collect like 50 thousand light orbs and reset time and prevent him from getting sick?
Tomoya seriously has the worst luck. If he goes with Nagisa she dies, and if he goes with Tomoyo he dies! I am guessing that if he goes with Kyou she probably gets cancer and dies...
@Awesomeuserdude With Kyou, they actually live happily ever after without neither of them going through any hard situation. No light orbs needed to revert back time, no deaths to cry over. She seems to be the safest route for Tomoya. o_O
But still, the others with Tomoyo and Nagisa was just as great. Too bad they didn't make an After VN for Kyou. =(
But I guess, if they did, they'd make it just as depressing as the others. >_<
@FO3Vatobreak In Kyou After, they'd probably make Ryou go yandere. Whether it's for Kyou or Tomoya (hmm, twincest or jealousy?) is up to whoever writes it. o_o;;
@URsuckishATlife Wrong VN. This is the ending to Tomoyo After which is a separate visual novel featuring characters from Clannad and focusing on Tomoyo instead of Nagisa.
@Raven8752 I actually think that "Tomoyo After" would make a great live-action drama somehow. I don't know if "Clannad" itself (the Nagisa Route story) would have (it made a beautiful anime, that's for sure), but something about "Tomoyo After" makes me feel like it would work.
All things live before they die. When they are both alive there is happiness. When one dies there is sadness. And when they both die they are together again (although not directly referring to heaven) and they have people who are alive that have memories of them.
Tears. Simply tears. I'm unable to watch the ending or listen to the song without shedding at least some tears every time. I'm patiently waiting for the beautiful visual novel to get fully translated and I replay Tomoyo's route in Clannad every now and then ^_^. After all the series I've seen, her story still touches my heart the most.
I played the original version with some scenes that its not suitable for young players.. Tomoya did die that was sucks but the version of this he didn't die but did remove the ecchi part that was sucks too..
orbs? no, an orb of happiness only exists on original CLANNAD game, not tomoyo after. though I do not care if you guys continue to interpret the end of tomoyo after as you like, only I have to say is that you guys are so misunderstanding.
I suggest you to check materials or detail information of tomoyo after and know about it more.
@dogissocute - I think you're the one who is misunderstanding. I know there are no light orbs in Tomoyo After, but it would have been nice if there were some so Tomoya could have been revived.
why do you tell a lie? or you just don't understand?
an official article also says tomoya has dead. besides, Mr.Maeda who is author of tomoyo after talked on interview that these graphics that tomoyo looks happy were all her dreams.
he said he just put these graphics into end to relieve audiences, especially tomoyo fans, and relax. that also means he has dead unfortunately.
PC's original version with porno killed him in the end as you say, then all other versions such as PS2, PSP, CS Edition, XBOX were made based on original version. so, ending cannot be changed.
as a hidden story, Mr.Maeda also got criticizm from tomoyo fans for tomoya's death on tomoyo after and he could not come to work place for about 1 or 2 months. You can check it and you'll know I am right. that is also proof that tomoya has dead.
@teanachan so from the dialogue in the description she dies or something and meets him in heaven..? gee this one is more depressing than nagisa's route.. is there any way he lives?
@aerowind113 Debatable. PC edition is completely impossible. CS Edition and ME Edition have the ending above. Maeda has said said the only reason he added the above ending to the latter editions was due to fan outcry over the original ending.
Yes he did pass away. The original version and most of the subsequent versions of the visual novel state that he dies. It's hard to accept but it's true
this ending has two perspectives, either he wasn't actually dead in a coma as the translation speaks, OR he did die and tomoyo finally went to meet with him.

@ShesLikeHeroin17 The Translation project lead is gone and no one picked up since. Meaning it's stalled until someone new steps in.
Try reading the Tomoyo After manga, it follows the same storyline as this one, except they leave out a few minor details.
