Ok, so after hearing all the praise it was getting, I just had to watch Clannad for myself. I was specifically looking for an anime that would move me to tears, and that's all I could hear from everyone else is that it made them cry. So I spent the past couple weeks watching it. Just finished it today. WOW. They weren't joking. SADDEST FREAKING ANIME EVAR. I cried like in almost every episode, especially towards the end of After Story, I was just bawling my eyes out uncontrollably lol. So yeah, highly recommend it, it was extremely touching and is now very dear to me. If you haven't seen it yet and are interested, try not to search for clannad art in google or here, it kind of ruined it a litle for me, but not enough that I didn't enjoy it and still got plenty of surprises. Oh, and one more thing. Episode 24 of Clannad and 25 of After Story and even the Movie are all alternate universe stories. I didn't like them, I kinda wanted to just skip them but I convinced myself to watch everything Clannad so I endured it. The movie was terrible, terrible art, voice acting, story, everything. I wished they would've made the movie into a continuation story of the anime but it was just another different, crappier way the anime could've happened summed up in 90 minutes of boredom. But again I watched it just because it had Clannad characters in it. Oh well, I'm definitely gonna watch the anime again!
