Clannad --- School Life and After Story----

Clannad way too sad I can’t find anime who entertain failures, depression and even death, dealing things and pattern it in real life with a twist of anime (off course-way of living is not normal) entice with fantasy, super natural and even naughtiness but it sure deals with the true problems exist in our real world-(taking about the real Earth) since Clannad have two parallel world existed (don’t want to confuse you with that). The plot makes it obvious that they bringing up the “what if?” and “what would you do when facing a worst case scenario?” It seems more on an eye opener to me. The story start with simple conflict that arise each time the level or stage of your life takes into much higher floor. It doesn’t makes me shed some tears like telenovela “1 liter of tears” does but it makes me really focus cause their lot of good essence hiding in it. In every word the character says. It makes my perspective shift in much better ways. I guess watching it doesn’t make me really sad it makes me delighted in some ways especially hearing “the ultimate mood killer ending song---Dango song” it makes me really sway my head left and right and start to sing “dango, dango, dango…” it brings me joy coming deep inside my heart.

My caught up emotions while watching Clannad; only some of the episodes

"the dango and the "shuriken"... oh' starfish battle... hehe... =) (Clannad Episode 7 makes me laugh out loud suddenly shift emotion to sad...) what an incredible unpredictable plot of story.. (*.*) amaze...

sobbed in tears T.T (Clannad episode 9)

" you know, in my dreams--when you say to me "what are you doing there? we should go to the starfish festival, since i met you two, you both take me to beautiful places, and for me everyday is like a starfish festival"...-Fuko Ibuki

-d-e-t- e-r-m-i-n-a-t-i-o-n leads to a -b-i-g- "s-u-p-r-i-s-e" you can never expect...

Clannad Episode 10--- "you can't get friends that easy, you have to build friendship"-- Kyou Fujibayashi

Kotomi Ichinose (playing violin---"that's divine"-->(deadly)

repeatedly introducing herself to everyone... sigh'... (makes me feel sleepy)

Warning: Spoilers (i'm one of them, can't help it...) ~.~

Clannad Episode 23 (Nagaisa and Tomoya) vs. Episode 24 (Tomoyo and Tomoya)

---- Episode 23 (charactrer of Nagaisa is not too easy to understand--- i admire Tomoya tolerance over her and beside everything her weirdness and all Tomoya is happy, maybe the family of Nagaisa make it as a bonus points but Nagaisa character alone--- (i don't think so)-- her family so cool make the story exciting and the balance of Nagaisa character and Tomoya is just enough (their combination is unpredictable--)

---- Episode 24 (Tomoyo and Tomaya--the name sounds like and it's cute, the episode is so sad and Tomoya is 3/4 mostly sad and i mostly felt the effect of his delinquent in this episode (fan request episode anyway) so I found the ending more matured and romantic than Episode 23. Tomoyo for Tomoya (both strong character). The fact Tomoyo bring down her dreams and pride for Tomoya makes it really sweet but still i stick to the original plot of the story anyway...

---- time for Clannad After Story---- ^.^

The Weirdest Way to Compliment Each Other....

Ms. Misae talking to Shma

" even if your a pest, your innocent and sweet"..(episode 5, after story)

Misae: what do you like about me?

Shima: even if you scold me, i know its only because you care about me and oh' when you do that wrestling moves on me, you smell nice and sweet. i like that.

(episode 6) ----> what a masochist ~.~

Sympathize mode (*-*)...

Ms. Misae: "with anything if you push too hard then people will start pushing back, be into it but be lay back about it."

Tomoyo: that's make sense, maybe i should change my approach.

nedz-----> same here! ('-')/V (ep5, after story)

--Not kadashima anymore---

The real Shima— I think is dead cause “offer incest means that way”

The real Shima make the currently existed Shima see the real world

The currently existed Shima is there to grant Misae wish (which is I therefore conclude requested by the real Shima who is already dead, then…

The currently existed Shima grants the request of Misae turns him into cat. ^.^

Shima cheesy line for Misae

“Love is like a fireworks of days long pass, don’t you think? You couldn’t see its beauty till it’s “boom” burst in the air”…

Cannad After Story Ep.6

So much good quotations to quote... (*-*)

"we get help from the things we can't do that's the whole point of having a company, there are times when I can't do something I’ll need your help, nothing wrong with that"

"everyone makes mistakes the important thing is how you make up for them".

Yoshino words to Tomoya... (thumbs up!)

“It takes a lost of someone to finally realize what you got”. Well, Nagisa death in brighter side finally make Tomaya understand his father, what he’s father been going through all along, it really takes “someone shoes” putting yourself in someone shoes for us to understand everything in a way, being a single parent and a father to his sick daughter Ushio, bringing up her daughter by himself like his father, his experience and the story of her grandma how his father bring him up helps Tomoya a lot to fully understand and forgive his fatrher …”

Clannad Ep22 (After Story)

What’s that all about??? Tomoya kinda sleepin? And it was like kind of a dream, wake up again, back again and everything in dream gone in 60 seconds. I notice the story have many options, in the first place, why it have two ending in the Clannad (School Life) if it wasn’t? The story has a sudden “what if?” it gives a lot of twist and put out a lot of sudden feelings. First crawl in the floor laughing out loud, sobbed into tears, feel so depressed then confuse then weird then ”aaaaahhh… *headache*” then laugh again and repeat all that feelings randomly while watching each episode. All that feelings are been shifted a lot in all of sudden in just a snap of minutes.

Due to my curiosity I make a few research about what happen to Tomoya and why it is like that (back to Nagisa giving birth situation again as if 5 years didn’t pass by and didn’t really happen anyway.)

Tomoya's psychology developed in his dreams of a bleak world where small orbs of light float around called the Illusionary World (幻想世界 Gensō Sekai?). In the first few dreams, he sees a world devoid of all life except for one girl (and grass). Each time he dreams, he finds out more about the world. Tomoya discovers the girl has a special ability to fuse junk together to create new things, with which she creates a body for him. Thus he is reborn in this world, and fills time following the girl around. Tomoya conceives that only the two of them are "alive". To pass time, Tomoya and the girl try to build another doll with more junk they find, but as it has no soul, it fails to come to life. Remembering a distant world where he came from, Tomoya convinces the girl to build a ship so that the two can escape the approaching winter and continue a happy life. Eventually, winter sets in, and the girl becomes cold to the point where she cannot move any more. Upon meeting this tragedy, the girl tells Tomoya that he has another chance to go back and make things right. To do so, he must collect certain "lights" (symbols of happiness) similar to those floating around in the Illusionary World. If all the "lights" are collected throughout both story parts, a chance to save Nagisa from dying in childbirth will become available, and the true ending where Nagisa survives and lives with Tomoya and their daughter Ushio will also become available.

Clannad After Story Ep 24

Finally the real good ending and relieved in all of the tremendous happening in the story, Nagisa and Tomoya really end up as a Big Dango Family anyway. =)

Clannad After Story Ep 25

“Fujibayashi twin sister love conflict” just like Clannad (School life) Clannad (After Story have an alternative ending)

Tomoya hugging Kyou in the rain while crying (the scene is so sweet) plus the fact that Tomoya has a quick kiss scene to both Ryou and Kyou (Fujibayashi twin sister) but Tomoya end up with Kyou (with Kyou sweetness toward Tomoya as boyfriend and girlfriend so far in my opinion one of the cute and sweet chemistry) because Tomoya tend to be shy sometimes also Kyou kind break it.

“Can I punch you till’ you stop breathing?” Tomoya to Sunohara (This two layback punk is the killer for all the sad part of the story, their naughtiness and combination brings out a lot of laughing to the story).

My favorite character in all of the girls is "Fuko Ibuki" she is cute (off course!) loving starfish... ^-^

2nd is Tomoyo Sakagami (she kicked Sunohara--how many times can't even remember?.? she is really cool..

3rd is Kotomi Ichinose ( i feel really bad why she don't have an ending part having a relationship with Tomoya, i just kinda wondering what would it like be?.? cool the way she reads book that fast (hope i can do that, if i can then i will not have some trouble with all of my written assignments...)  isn't a gift or a talent? hehe... =) (that's amazing...)

4th is Kyou Fujibayashi (she wants to be a pre school teacher--->same here! ^-^ and it's weird that her like profession is somewhat so oppesed to her personality--> way too strong character (punching Sunohara)

5th "Ushio" the child of Nagaisa and Tomoya--> she is cute and far more stronger than her mother Nagisa and always bragging about " i do it on my own"-- too cute ^-^

Favorite character in all the boys

Sunohara Yohei (seriously, he's the man! cute when he dye he's hair blonde and color it back with black just to get a job) and he is the "mood killer" like the dango song whenever he's around each episode i know there are a lot of naughtiness and surely i will laugh, his tolerance is so great especially when Tomoya make up stories and brings him in an unpleasant situation but he handle it as if it is normal and he sure have  a babyface look.

2nd Shima the blonde guy who became the cat simply because he is cute... ^.^

3rd is Yoshino (i always like the guy who create music plus he rock n' roll with a lot of a sudden out of nowhere speech of his words of wisdom) too serious hansomely look.

4th is Akio Furukawa (Nagisa father) he advice well, he is a cool father (in exception in the episode where he shout while Nagisa is in stage performing first time for drama club... (i hate him a little for that-- embarassed--) but his baseball skill and one of the reasons except to Sunohara and Fuko why i laugh in every episode (especially when he kept on whispering about how bad is the homebread of his wife)--> then come running eating the bread to console his wife.

5th finally Tomoya (he's super nice, gentleman, a man who will say to you the perfect word you wanted to hear when you fill so down, a person who is willing to do everything even spend his own savings just to help a friend and make you feel better, someone who is willing to go to the proncipal office and punch a bunch of gangster just to save a friend,someone who make up stories and do naughty things and then after fix it and someone to shy just to hold her girlfriend hands, someone who plays baseball with her girlfriend father over and over again just to win her for marriage, someone whose willing to find and buy a very rare stuff just like dango stuff toys just to make her happy, someone who cries in front of her girlfriend cause he is afraid to loose her. 

That's it! watching Clannad done and over with but the effect will surely be a lifetime last... ^-^
