Just what I’ve been waiting for. I didnt watch Clannad ~After Story~ though but I cant wait watching this shit. The OVA started with Ryou so I thought this was Clannad: Ryou Chapter. But yeah, of course I was wrong and it focuses on Kyou. I really hate seeing Tomoya again. Dont ask why. Just [...]

In another world, Ryou finally gets the courage to confess to Tomoya and he reluctantly agrees to date her.

Tomoya, you damn lucky bastard. Kyou in 30 minutes? A new record. A delicious montage of Kyou and Ryou goodness: Impressions: Well, it’s the episode that everyone’s been waiting for. Clannad ~After Story~ OVA: Kyou Arc. Let me start with the good points first: the ending was nicely done. Now, about the rest…sharing the same opinion as everyone [...]

I know this is a bit late, but it’s been a pretty busy past fortnight. We’re into July already now this year and that also means the summer anime season has started. As you can see from the charts below, there are quite a number of anime that are airing. When I first saw the [...]

I hate that guy. Clannad AS: Kyou’s Arc was not bad. Not as good as the best episodes from the main story, but not bad either. It will take some effort for watchers to switch from the usual Nagisa-centric storyline to something that resembles a harem, with twins no less. However, once the transition is done, it [...]

As a Ryou-turned-Kyou fan, this Fujibayashi-centric OVA is a dream come true. Ryou and Kyou represents the 2 classes of bishoujos I would have loved to date during my younger days – the gentle, kind, oh-so-bashful-she’s-cute type and the effervescent type whose energetic antics barely conceal their girlish charms. Traditionally, I’d bully the former [...]

Putting that aside, I learnt this song a few days ago, at first it was just for fun, but I've decided to upload it in the end. Well, Dango Daikazoku ~piano~ is the first video I uploaded here (wow, almost 7 months already), so I thought, why don't I upload the guitar version as well. It's just a simple video, nothing flashy, no backing track, no multiple instruments, it's just me and my guitar.

Okay, you’ve heard me praise After Story enough, so did you seriously think that I WOULDN’T blog this? To be fair, I’m not even compare this OVA to the main series. Instead, my baseline for comparison is the Tomoyo Arc adaptation in the Clannad OVA. Both adaptations were crammed into 1 episode. Both arcs were romance based, so adapting it in the Nagisa-centered anime, was impossible. Most importantly, both adaptations dealt with characters that were just as, if not more than, popular than Nagisa. So without further ado, my thoughts.

As I mentioned many months ago, I was very excited about the release of the Kyou OVA for Clannad. As I mentioned earlier, she was the superior choice, amongst all the options Tomoya was presented with. So I ecstatically downloaded the episode and watched it. 23 minutes and 41 seconds later, I was done, so [...]

I suppose before I embark on any discussion of this new Clannad OVA, I should mention two things: Firstly, the previous Tomoyo After OVA was perhaps the pinnacle of the Clannad franchise for me (yes, I am a sucker for Tomoyo) and secondly, after Nagisa's death in After Story I was really rooting for Tomoya to end up with Kyou for a short period of time. With that in mind, surely I should love
