It really gives all of a new perspective. Also do other Key's works... I've watched Kanon 2006 over 6 times. I lost count.

[@caleblandgraf2238]

I thought I'd post an explanation of the ending of this show so that it's a little more understandable. (For those that are curious what exactly happened) TLDR: TOMOYA DID NOT DREAM THIS! Clannad is based off of a visual novel. It’s a game where you-the player-are given the opportunity to spend time with different people (i.e. the characters in the anime). Everyone has a problem, and it’s your job to help them. The goal of the visual novel is to collect 13 light orbs. To simplify it even further, you must collect 13 light orbs in order to see the happy ending (the ending of the game). In the anime, these light orbs are seen at the ending of each arc. After Tomoya helps someone, he receives a light orb. As the mythology of Clannad goes, these orbs can grant wishes. For example, Misae uses a “light orb wish” on Katuski Shima, to love her forever. This wish is granted in the form of Misae finding and keeping a cat, which is assumed to be Shima. This is all a part of the towns folklore. The town Clannad takes place in, is basically a character itself (more on that below). This town revived Nagisa when she was on the verge of death. It’s revealed by Akio that he took Nagisa to an open field, and asked for a miracle. The town responded, and granted Nagisa’s life back. This caused her to become intertwined with the town itself. The more the town changes, the more Nagisa’s life changes, and in turn, her health declines. One of the more complex ideas posed by Clannad, is the “Illusionary World.” This is brought up by Kotomi, as her parents were studying the possibility of other worlds. In the case of Clannad, this is a world where only a girl and robot exist. At the beginning of the anime, it’s assumed that the story between these two, is meant to be the source material of the drama club play. Nagisa plays “the last girl in the world,” and she creates a robot to keep her company. Mysteriously, the only two people who have heard of this story, are Nagisa and Tomoya. This is because the Illusionary World isn’t bound by time. In fact, it’s not even a part of the world that Clannad takes place in. It’s a sort of afterlife. After Ushio dies, her “spirit” is transported to another existential plane. She loses her memory and begins life alone, in a world modeled after the one she knew as a child. In short, Nagisa and Tomoya can feel their daughter’s spirit from a distant world; and Nagisa decides to write a play about it. Ushio builds a robot because of a memory she shares with Tomoya. Tomoya bought her a toy robot, and it was very precious to her. This is why the manifestation of Tomoya in the Illusionary World, is a robot. Since Tomoya exists in the form of a robot in the Illusionary World, all of the orbs gained by the human Tomoya, are transported here for Ushio’s end goal and plan. To simplify this even more, the Illusionary World was created by Ushio. Everything that happens here is because of Ushio’s real life experiences. From the creation of the robot, to the destruction of the world. Ushio made the Illusionary World to grant her dad, a wish. Let’s also remember that Nagisa was tied to the town. Due to the fact that Ushio shares a similar illness to her mother, her existence is also tied to the town. Tomoya hates the town. This is established in the opening scene of the anime. By helping everyone around him, his world opens up, and he begins to like the town. Then tragedy strikes, and his wife and daughter die. He begins feeling like life would have been better if he didn’t speak to Nagisa on that fateful day, at the beginning of the show. The final orb obtained sets the ending into motion. Tomoya grants Ushio’s wish to “take a trip.” As she begins to die, she asks her father if they had made it to the flower field, and Tomoya tells her they did. This then results in “Illusionary World Ushio” being able to grant Tomoya a wish. More accurately, a miracle. Tomoya is faced with the same situation from the beginning of the show. It’s believed that this scene does not actually take place in a timeline, rather it is a decision Tomoya must make. What will he wish for? Will he wish to never meet and speak with Nagisa on that day? Or will he choose to accept Nagisa regardless of the hurt that may await him in the future? At first, he lets Nagisa pass him by, but then he comes to his senses, and he calls out to her. Nagisa-seemingly aware of everything that has happened-is glad that he chose to be with her. This scene is meant to be an illustration of the “idea” that Tomoya knows his heart’s desire. The moment they share (the hugging) is meant to be a realization of Tomoya’s wish. He now knows what he wants; and Ushio grants this. More accurately, THE TOWN grants Tomoya’s wish. This is why Tomoya sees orbs throughout the town on the night Ushio was born. Nagisa passed her connection to the town, to Ushio. Ushio granted her dad’s wish by collecting all the orbs in the Illusionary World. Ushio, the town, and the Illusionary World are all connected. THE SECOND TIMELINE (SECOND ENDING) Tomoya wishes for a life with his family. Ushio/The Town grant him this wish. After Tomoya and Nagisa share that moment under the sakura trees, we are shown what looks to be Tomoya crossing world lines. It is also possible that he went back in time, to the moment Ushio was born. Regardless of what actually happened, Tomoya is taken to an alternate version of the moment that ruined his life. Instead of Nagisa dying post-childbirth; she instead lives, and gives birth to a healthy girl. Tomoya’s wish comes true. We get to see events of Tomoya’s adult life, except this time, Nagisa and Ushio are with him. We also get to see what the other members of the drama club have been up to after graduating. Kyou is still a teacher. Ryou becomes a nurse. Youhei works for what looks to be a taxi company. Kotomi is continuing her parents work in America. More importantly, Nagisa and Tomoya get their moment. Tomoya is able to see his dream realized, and they live happily as a family of three. That’s basically it.

I'll check in every few months. On a side note, I think its great how this comment section has inspired people to talk about the impact this show has had on their lives.

As I am currently expecting my first child, this song reminds me of how important Clannad is to me. I watched Clannad when I was a lonely teenager, with absent parents. I recognized myself a lot in Nagisa and Tomoya and Clannad gave me the hope that someday I would have my happy ending too. Well, 10 years later I can say, yep. Things get better. I can now have the best time with my parents, husband, and soon - my baby boy (or girl). I hope you guys are ok, and wish you know that you deserve happiness.

They only made it the Dango Daikazoku song in the anime, in the original VN it's just Nagisa's theme. Even the part where Nagisa sings the Dango song to Ushio sounds way different in the VN.

Why can't any other anime get close to Clannad's greatness? They don't even try. Starting a family: No anime i know of. Confessing: Surprisingly rare. Even more rare is conflict after the confession. Death in Slice of Life: Kanon, otherwise no. Lack of extreme fanservice: This is rare, and that's stupid. No one in Clannad's got boobs bouncing all the time, or panties showing by "accident" once a minute. Parenting: No. Most romance i've watched is about a guy blind to romance, but not to lust, who is loved by every girl he knows.

Yes, while main protagonist is a harem king, his feelings are for one and only (and actually it is the main reason why I liked second part of first season) I am not saying those are comparable to Clannad, however, I just don´t think a true romance can´t be found in animes.

So. I know this is late but what clannad has done for me is unspeakable. I lost my dad 5 years ago as a 15 year old and I just sealed my emotions off, didn't shed tears, hated hearing stories of my dad and so on... Started watching animes when i was 16, after many animes, i watched clannad... The scene where Ushio said "The only place i can cry is in the bathroom or my dad's hands" i felt tears in my eyes.. As she started crying. I could honestly see my dad in front of me stretch out his arms and he said "CRY". I dropped my phone and wept for 10 minutes straight. All the sadness, pain, and hurt just flowed out... Till date. I still answer people that call me weird cause I'm an Otaku that "Anime saved my life" because "Clannad saved my life". I'd have turned to an unfeeling, emotionally scarred person if not for this anime

This anime show literally change my view points on life. At first, I was like family? friends? Who needs that, I'm fine by myself. But maybe it's good to have friends. Those who you can depend on and those who depend on you. Those who make you strong, pick you up when you're down and give you purpose in life. Thank you Clannad for all of the joy, wisdom and tears you have given me even although you are just a simple cartoon show. Well I guess not that simple, but something more, magical. :)

Evie Addy No. Cartoon are crappier and more specific head shapes, signature to each series. Anime has it's own style, while cartoons are just out there with the animation.

[@evieaddy9580]

Cartoons are not crap. They are part of many peoples childhood. there is no difference they both show different levels of emotion depending on the stories they tell. There was no need to even comment or get offended in the first place.

[@leeleebirdd]

people say anime is for children. that it's just cartoons and you need to grow up. but it's not. anime can be the most beautiful and tranquil thing you ever experience. it can change you, lift you and inspire you to do better. I experience constant depression and after watching clannad 10+ times I learned to smile more, speak more (even though social anxiety is a bitch and a half) and be more honest with myself. Anime is gorgeous and will FOREVER be with me and FOREVER keep me going.

Just over 3 years ago I started this anime. It changed me. Sounds pathetic and cliche but it genuinely did. It made me want a family and to have a child, it made me have goals for the future. Damn man, this anime means so fucking much to me. Before I watched it I saw children as a sort of burden and wasn't bothered about having one. After watching this and seeing Ushio my views on a family did a complete U-turn.

[@Elcollpohorrible]

I noticed that most people write in the commentsection that Clannad was so sad that it made them cry( myself included) but i dont think that most people get the whole massage, let me explain( and no, will not go in too deep in to the symbolism and plottwists) The world in Clannad is full of sadness and lonlyness, but there are always people that you can relly on and together we can create our own happniess and hope, because everyone has the right to be happy and aswell spread your happniess to the people that you hold dear. We are all a big family, a dango daikazoku, and in the end nobody has any superpowers or magical abilitys, but sometimes a miracle happends between people but this would not be called miracle it is just people that love one another. This anime made me laugh, think, reflect, cry of sadness but aswell for the pure beauty and love thats showed. I Still only my humble opinion.

[@ONeilTD]

I never get the massage...:(

[@mitchelljohnson1198]

Clannad= one of the most unforgettable stories I've experienced; it is an experience full of laughs, imagination, and emotions. It's got a lot of heart and soul in it-- especially with its reoccurring theme about family. It's something that I'd recommend even to none-Anime/Manga fans-- I'd recommend it even to those who are becoming parents/building a family of their own. I feel that it has a lot of good things that a person learn from, and connect with in real life. One of KEY's best work, in my opinion.

English: Far, far away, there's a swaying sea of rice grains Raise the sails, raise the sails, and go to the memories that we aimed for Do we still remember all of the sad things up to today, or have we forgotten them? Even in our small hands, since when has there been a strength that's overtaking us? We walked from the days when we cried beneath the ripe grapes Even if our hands are little, even if we're separated, we'll go down this road On the day to come sometime, we'll treasure our greatest memories The seasons change and the cold wind Has already been wrapped by and sleeping in the song of that spring Even in our small hands, since when has there been a strength that's overtaking us? How many smiles reflected on our wet cheeks? Even if our hands are little, even if we're separated, we'll go down this road And on the day that came, we treasured our memories, too Even if our hands are small, they've been overtaking us since some other day The day that finally came opened a new season Romaji: Tooku de tooku de yureteru inaho no umi Ho o age ho o age mezashita omoide e to Bokura wa kyou made no kanashii koto zenbu oboeteru ka, wasureta ka Chiisana te ni mo itsu kara ka bokura oikoshiteku tsuyosa Ureta budou no shita naiteta hi kara aruita Chiisana te de mo hanarete mo bokura wa kono michi yukun da Itsuka kuru hi wa ichiban no omoide o shimatte Kisetsu wa utsuri mou tsumetai kaze ga Tsutsumarete nemure ano haru no uta no naka de Chiisana te ni mo itsu kara ka bokura oikoshiteku tsuyosa Nureta hoho ni wa dore dake no egao ga utsutta Chiisana te de mo hanarete mo bokura wa kono michi yukun da Soshite kuru hi wa bokura mo omoide o shimatta Chiisana te de mo itsu no hi ka bokura oikoshite yukun da Yagate kuru hi wa atarashii kisetsu o hiraita

You know, The "True ending" is actually quite sad when you think about it, The tomoya that was in the alternate timeline of perhaps even the real timeline lost almost everything he had, His whole life has been disaster after disaster, we never see what happens after the kid dies. Maybe he committed suicide, maybe he went insane, it makes you think why the other version of himself deserves the good life while the other just rots away.

[@RealTopBeast]

*SPOILERS BITCH DONT READ IF U HAVEN FINISHED* I think that he might have died in the snow with ushio. I say this because after he dies they play the scene in which he is the little robot and the girl is ushio they both disappear together.

[@kewajdf]

TheStardust6000 Well i mean, other than hypothermia(which is Highly unlikely) He had no reason to die there.

[@Deniziozioz]

When they die Tomoya is transported to the "other world" where all the lights are, a light is created when a happy moment is experienced, an older version of Ushio guards these lights but allows Tomoya to take the one he created when he took Ushio to meet his father (He forgave his father) which became a light. The light can make a wish come true and Tomoya wished for a second chance where neither Nagisa nor Ushio dies. Which means it ends with a happy ending :)

[@kewajdf]

Deniziozioz Acording to Schrodingers cat, Even if he made a "wish" there would still be another timeline with that same outcome. Idk if i should debate if clannad has any scientific backround X)

[@3l0223]

my view on it is that because hes the only one that remembers what happened is that he went from the 1st world to the new one, so hes not there any more. have to make it happy in my mind

[@liamdrummond8262]

This anime provided me with great catharsis during my time of the worst suffering and loneliness I have endured. It showed me the great wealth and profundity in human value and experience, and having the impact on me that it did I will surely carry the experience of those tears with me always as I go on to live a greater quality of life myself and try to realise what incredible wealth and profundity this anime tried to convey. A truly heartwarming song.

[@TBoneSt8k]

My wife and I just started watching anime recently and finished watching Clannad and Clannad After Story and it’s the best anime I’ve watched so far. Not sure if anything else can compare I’m terms of drama / slice of life anime. Even if there is, Clannad will always have a special place in my heart. From tears of joy to tears of sadness. This was one emotional roller coaster that I was glad to be on for the ride 😅😊❤️

[@camero896]

Finally, another song added to my list as my funeral song.

[@40ozbottle41]

clannad is a masterpiece on so many levels. It has so many characteristics that no other show or anime will be able to create.This anime is about loving your family and making and losing friends along the way. Clannad truly changed my life in so many ways. Emotional and self-confidence. I tear up every time I hear the soundtrack. There will never ever be an anime like clannad. Thank you Visual Arts and Key for blessing us with this. I wish the best for all of you out there. God bless us, Ushio, Tomoyo, Nagisa, Fuko, Kyou, Ryou, Akio, Kotomi, Tomoyo Sakigami, and Sanae. I love you all, and one more time. Thank you. God bless us all.

[@Theborgne]

Is that possible to forget that anime ? for me its not

[@mathildezwisler]

i will always remember the anime c':

[@FantasyLord19]

This song hit me so hard when I realized all this time I was dealing with grief over loss of my loved ones, was the reason of my depression. I did not remember all the wonderful times I had with them, instead all I focused on was a loss. It was preventing me from moving on and living my life, instead I was trapped. It helped me let go and move on, at least a tiny bit.

[@alyesto3202]

I feel sorry for all the people who never watched Anime Clannad... Whenever I feel depressed to the point I need help, i don't call anyone .. I just come here and listen yo this song. :'(

[@MooMoo_04]

never feel afraid to ask for help because I can assure you that everyone has problems but are to afraid to ask for help so please don’t be afraid fren

[@Brenby]

My favorite part is 1:58, where Ushio is running through the flower field :)

[@kyosukekazuto6087]

i learned two things from this anime. Number one is that i should never ever give up on that one thing that only i can protect (ushio in tomoya's case). number two is even if there happen sad things. always try to find that one moment of true happyness.

[@Elcollpohorrible]

Kyosuke Kazuto Sure does.

[@jorejakutyte4377]

[@cheesedudepickles3916]

I spent approximately around 80 hours to finish the visual novel, and all I have to say is it was some of the greatest hours of my life. If you haven't seen/played Clannad just do yourself a favor and do that right now.

[@Mac_Omegaly]

I only watched the Netflix anime and wish listed the Japanese physical copy, but I had issues with throwing that much cash at one game. Last year, Limited Run Games announced the Nintendo Switch physical collectors edition for $109.98 *(with shipping). Looking between the bare bones import option and the Limited Edition version I decided to finally buy the special edition. While I put off playing it the moment it arrived, I did finally get around to starting it in January. Now after the 80 hour journey is over, (just this morning after having trouble sleeping after seeing the orbless main ending at 1am the night before) I can whole heartedly agree that this game was completely worth splurging for the special edition. [Even with the uncommon grammer and spelling mistake. I mean they fit the whole game on a Switch Cartridge and ever line not thought or spoken by the main character is fully voiced. And even then the physical cartridge install size is 0.0 MB, with the only space requirement is for 2 megabytes of save data. Meaning sharing the game with friends is garenteed to require no effort. *(like no need for them to delete game data to play it.)] I was listening to this song as I was looking through the "Official Guide Book" which has a fairly lengthy section on development notes from the orginal PS2 game. For an art booklet that is mostly spoiler free to give that much depth is a freaking treasure. While it may not end up being my absolute favorite Switch game, it's certainly up there to fight the others tooth and nail. It made me want to learn the process of using flow charts as a basis to write my own Interactive Fiction (IF) Visual Novel (VN). *(I already downloaded Ren'py for windows.)

[@cordyceps7531]

0:27-0:35 is what chokes me up the most. Sounds like unimaginable sadness, but also happiness, and a bit of nostalgia.

[@joshuaskimore]

Still hard to believe that 359 people dislike this video. This is an amazing song why would there be that many dislikes.

[@mamitomoeyestherealmamitom1466]

I know right! They're just jealous that they can't make such beautiful music like this!

[@MegaMENTOS69]

DetectiveKZbin or they just got slammed with the feels too hard

[@jimmuorejo6483]

MegaMENTOS69 Haha, I also thought of that, I got hit by them feels, twice actually that I could've had disliked it because I cried so much even after watching the season 1 and after story all over again. Ohhh them feels, but I like it instead :)

[@readifdumb]

I'm surprised there is not more. Not that i dont like the anime its my favourite. But if you haven't realised dicks lay round every corner. So watch out and next time you see one. Bring out all your copy's of clannad and hit them with feels. Proven more effective then the bible!

[@nickbuss7163]

Simplest explanation? They got all teary eyed, went to click like and accidentally clicked dislike and have not realized it.
