I was bewildered why she would fall for him right from the start - the whole development appeared awfully rushed to me. Giving the also-rans no more than cameo appearances was fine but both lead Characters, Nagisa as well as Tomoya, were very different people now: Nagisa was much stronger from early on, Tomoya was much less witty and didn't have a lot to do for supporting this girl. Ecchi: None (clean and pure, not even a bit of fanservice)Īfter watching Clannad (TV) first I was ambivalent about this movie: Focusing on the Nagisa arc would exactly have been what I was looking for but this arc in the series is about a long, slow incremental process that a movie can't possibly deliver, so.?Ĭonsequently, I wasn't that happy during the first half of this show.SciFi: None/Low (you might count a certain event as supernatural).Action: None/Low (well, one of the slapstick scenes).Comedy: Low (not many scenes but full-scale slapstick).Drama: High (don't let the first half fool you).If you liked Clannad TV or After Story, then do pick this up.

The soundtrack for the most part was light pieces with pianos, and string instruments. not that it was a depressing piece, but the fact that I pretty much knew what to expect after seeing the series. ![]() It was both inspiring and depressing at the same time. Our characters were for the most part similar to the previous installments. Maybe not as breathtaking as the opening sequence to After Story, but darn close. Again, the lighting effects were just outstanding. Far richer details, far richer colors but the animation.
