@ tommykn :

I’m not getting any incest vibes from Mei and Sunohara, I think it’s probably just your imagination

@ Myssa Rei

I’m glad that they are doing some of the sub-routes and fleshing out these characters a bit more, like I said, it would be no fun if they jumped right in to Tomoya’s life a few years down the road and left out everyone but Nagisa. I do hope to see Fuuko wake from her coma (even though I can’t stand her character, I just know that it is going to happen – that, or she dies tragically), and I woulnd’t mind seeing more of Kotomi. As for the 17yo quote, I only barely know who Kikuko Inoue is, not to mention her famous quotations :\

@ lelangir

I don’t know how a VN adaptation could be anything other than arc after arc and still satisfy all the existing fans, and I fel pretty confident that they will eventually get to the real After Story part

@ Omisyth

It feels so wrong but so right when you squirm in your chair over a dreadful situation

@ Vin-nii

As long as they keep being as funny as this one, I’d be fine with that

@ all

The clippy was the greatest thing ever. I’m glad you agree

Hm…It seems that they are trying to animate all the arcs (or at least the climax of the arc)from the game into episodes… This could be interesting XD

If Sunohara really starts to love Sanae (as I think he shall) then we may be getting to some dorama quite soon. And I both love/hate dorama.

I’m thinking that we’ll see some final goodbyes for some of the characters of the ‘School Life’ phase before we hit the After Story proper. In the game, the only people who have ANY appreciable presence in Nagisa and Tomoya’s lives post-graduation are Sunohara, Kyou, and Tomoyo (Yusuke and Fuuko’s sister don’t count). Still, I’m curious if KyoAni DOES decide to expand the lives of the other friends post-graduation; Kotomi, for example, has already sat in for Fuuko during the baseball game. So, we might very well see more of Kotomi, Ryou, or even Yukine.

And boo, no one even THOUGHT of Sanae saying Kikuo Inoue’s immortal line, “I’m still 17 years old~” when Sanae appeared in her schoolgirl disguise?

Yeah, Nagisa looks far less ‘moe-blob’ with the hair parted. Which is a good thing. I almost didn’t watch this show because the character design was so fucking exploitative.

Bleah, so, as Myssa Rei points out, the structure of this “reiteration” of Clannad is the same as the first season? Arc after arc…starting with the loli of course. I seriously thought that, due to my ignorance, this would take place years in the future when/if Okazaki and Nagisa are married, hence the train scene with the kid? Will this season get that far? ^&$YHR@$$KAfI&YRU^&$(#@jkrwu3i45u

This is actually the introduction to the Mei arc, and I’ve already mentioned in other places that it’s one of the better sub-routes in the CLANNAD game. It’s also pretty poignant despite its length, and it pretty much centers upon the question, “What does it take to make my brother/sister happy?”

And there’s some hint to Yukine’s story as well, since we’ve seen one of her ‘admirers’.

Nagisa is really cute with her hair clipped ^___^

Aside from that, i do am wondering whats happening next episodes and wonder if he decdes to get serious if ever xD

true, with that hairclip nagisa looks so much cuter^3
too bad she took it off the next day

i am still a little bit confuse, what relationship sunohara and mei have, i know that they are 100% blood-related, just hope it doesn’t turn out to be some sister-brother complex – but if she cares for him, with just the family love, i think that’s pretty much okay.
