![]() ![]() Now of course the characters are okay, some of them are actually quote solid as the characterization is pretty good here. It was just your typical silly anime that is sometimes way too tween-like in its approach. Instead of being a drama, Clannad is too lightweight and sometimes verging too much into comedy territory. The premise is excellent, but the execution of said premise is very weak. Both the characters and the story left me cold. Now this is famous for being one of the most heartbreaking anime shows and because I didn’t connect with the characters, I naturally didn’t feel anything myself.

It’s no wonder why you doubt what other people in the world tell you. “ Everyday people keep hurting each other. It is the most disappointing anime I’ve seen so far. First time watchers, however, should probably stick with the TV version before viewing this.Clannad is a 2007 drama anime show directed by Tatsuya Ishihara. This is perfect for those who sort of want to rematch Clannad, but want a shorter method of doing so. Though it wasn’t as good as the original, it definitely had its better points (comedy) as well as bringing me back to the time when I watched it. This aspect was something that was done nicely. It wasn’t as catchy but it still worked for its purpose. The dango song, sadly, was different from the TV version. It gave me a sense of nostalgia listening to it. Music wise, I recognized a lot of the background tracks from the VN present in this. However most of the time the animation is smooth and flows nicely. This was a point that I sort of disliked, as I couldn’t get used to it. The animation at times is choppy and has areas where they simply have a still image (Glasslip like).
