I love how this episode shows that Clannad's brilliance isn't limited only to how invested you get with the characters, but even through just a single episode we see how careful and critical they are when following through with it. As always, I love your videos and I hope you don't stop making them!!
Actually Tomoyo is more popular than you might think. I mean she is the only character to get After Story visual novel although the ending is depressing as hell. Personally I adored her😘
Yes! I love how you're bringing attention to this OVA. The amount of emotional and the hard-hitting display of reality in this single 24 episode shocked me when I first viewed it. Sits up there with what people widely regard as the best Clannad episodes in the 2nd half of after story.
I used to hate this episode (I was a stickler for cannon back then lol), but I rewatched it recently and thought it was really interesting how it explored the 'what if' between Tomoya & Tomoyo a whole level deeper by adding society's impact on one's own self-view & course of actions. It's a pretty cool angle & exploration
I was really happy to see you uploaded this video, your previous Clannad After Story video touched my heart a lot. Clannad is the anime that made me realise that hardest thing to understand in this world are literally basic values of life such as family, love and friendship. While living we always forget about how important these things are, we stop valuing them and keep on trying to get something like money, social status. We continue looking for key to happiness, not realising it was always near to us: people who care about you and who you care about. Thanks for your amazing job, not all big anime youtubers do videos of that high quality:) Good luck in your life)
Tomoyo is certainly best girl. We often can't explain why we end up feeling different about a certain person and we choose someone in our life. It isn't often because they are the most reasonable pick, but based on gut, instinct, and attraction. Even if Tomoya chose wrong, we'll always know how special Tomoyo is.
I first watched Clannad and Clannad After Story two years ago. One year ago my grandmother passed away. I decided to rewatch all of this again before it makes one year since she died. Because this show changed my life forever. And today I watched this episode. Every word that Tomoya said to Tomoyo at the end, about how he got a job, that he's doing things good... it's been my life in these past months. And I did it all for my grandmother. It is weird to compare this real relationship to this anime relationship. But nonetheless... I was bursting into tears when I watched that scene. I was just surprised of how these words reflected on my true life. So yeah, this show still surprises me. Masterpiece.
Hi, I know your comment was about a year ago, and that's why I ask - how are you doing now? I hope okay :) I love how your grandmother inspired you to achieve your goals! And no, it's not weird to compare this real relationship to this anime relationship - people can get inspirations from many media, from many sources, from many media, it doesn't matter in the end (in fact anime influenced me more than any other media too).
Great minds think alike! This episode stands as one of the best episodes not just in Clannad but in anime in general. In just 24 mins it's able to convey such deep emotions that many other series fail to do in their entire run. Great vid, bro!
Thanks Kevin! It really is one of the best episodes ever made in anime in general. And I agree. I’m fascinated at how KyoAni was able to convey so much in just 24m.
If Clannad After Story showed me the importance of family, Clannad's Another World: Tomoyo Chapter showed me the importance of valuing someone for who they are.

Now if we can get an anime adaption of her story. Then again i feel her story may be to sad. If they go with the original version. of here after story. But if we can somthing like seeing their. Kid. May help
This episode was an incredible experience. It covered so much and the bond between tomoya and tomoyo was very believable as a couple that truly loved each other. The ending was simply put perfect for me. Despite only being 1 episode it felt like much more.
If they do make an anime version. Wood they animate here whole story line. From the base game and combine the spin off in to one anime? If so people will be in for a ride.
I might be 3 years late but great video bro your take on this episode opened my eyes because I watched it so long ago and even though I got the jist of it you have helped me appreciate clannad even more than before. Thank you for making such great video on my favorite series of all time
This episode really showed how much of a masterpiece Clannad is. It was a single episode, yet it managed to convey the message it wanted and thanks to you I was able to understand it even further and appreciate the beauty of this episode.
wow never really thought about this OVA exept that it was quite decent compared to every other, but this vid really brought me a new perspective to it which makes me apreciate the whole of clannad even more
Clannad was the very first Anime i ever watched and i remember it making me bawl, at the time i maybe didn't understand everything and the deep meanings as i was only in 7th grade but it only gives me a reason to rewatch it and experience that nostalgia and all those emotions all over again.
Tomoyo Sakagami and Tomoya Okazaki's relationship was my favorite and it reminded me of my relationship with my now twenty-nine(29) year old ex-girlfriend. Tomoyo and Tomoya's relationship was the most realistic and believable to me. I watched this OVA so many times I wish there was a separate Clannad anime with Tomoyo and Tomoya as a couple in this timeline where we see the OVA take place. If there was an anime like this we would see where there relationship went and how much it has developed. 本当にいい video. Thank you.
I was really happy when I saw that this video was released, I love this special episode SO much, and I really love your videos, that I was jumping from happiness to watch you talk about this episode. Keep going with your marvelous content. 💕💕
this episode was done so well and touched me so much that I thought I enjoyed it better than the main love story. although the tomoyo chapter was a masterpiece to me as well, All of Clannad was simply amazing!
The characters development in Clannad and Clannad After Story is just pure perfection. Its depiction of everyday life - both the good and the bad - feels so real. When it comes to drama/romantic anime, this must be one of THE best I've ever seen. It really changed my perception of the world and the people in it, without exaggeration.
Your thumb nails are amazing your video quality is amazing, I'm so glad I I typed tomoya and tomoyo because I found your channel and I'm going to sub and watch some more videos. It's nice to know that someone else like is ep too, I clannad is literally my favourite anime nothing a top it, it's sad too because I CAN'T find anything like clannad. But anyway great video
Fun fact I realized with your video (as I haven't seen this show in its entirety), it would be interesting to note, that most time we see Tomoya with Tomoyo, he's (mostly) in the shadows, or darkened in someway. But the end scene (snowy landscape), he appears to be in the light, with her, truly, he opened up his heart and she accepted HIM, not how others perceived them (she's the good/genius, he's the idiot/delinquent), but him as he is and she appears to make her own choice, not from others view of her/him/them, but with her own mind. I'm pretty sure there is much more to analyse in the colors and choice of palettes/shadows/light source... I should watch... because I'm now genuinely curious about it... 🤔
I really loved this video, you have to play the VN Tomoyo after, it's incredible how key can make endearing stories, and Tomoyo after is one of them, for me is good enough as Clannad after story and it is heartbreaking
Its all the matter of One Single Choice.... U can fall in love with anyone... Some people feel glad that they met each other but they don't know that they could have met another person and said the same thing to them... Ahh life is strange...
This video is so amazing because I love them together they’re one of my favorite couples and I feel like I like them more than the main Female lead. Storyline. I need someone to write some fan fiction about this
love the video! great examination of the episode! i love to see clannad content! if you take constructive criticism id recommend expanding the vocabulary to convey the weight of emotions more but outstanding video despite that!!
Umm I think they should make more episodes bout the relationship of tomoyo and tomoya. That last scene of ep 23 always makes me cry😭😭 When tomoyo and tomoya hug each other and cry
Just wish that both it and the Kyou OVA got 2-3 episodes instead of just 1. The VN gives a lot more for both but 1 episode was just a bit too small. That said, what they did for each of them with only 25 minutes is impressive.
Agreed. I felt that more with the Kyou episode than the Tomoyo episode, merely because the 25m used for the Tomoyo one was so perfect. Nevertheless, it would have been amazing if each got more episodes as you said.
I admit it it was hard for me to care about this storyline. Not because it was bad, but because I watched right after finishing the first season of Clannad. Like even before After Story I was already so invested in the Nagissa and Tomoya romance, it was hard for me to get invested.
Nice video! But have you heard of the Clannad Tomoyo chapter manga? It adapts the second visual novel (Tomoyo After) and is really good in my opinion! If you like this OVA episode, you should definitely read this manga or play the game.
Wait I’m confused because I just watched Clannad and vol.2 ep 11 Tomoya and Nagisa were dating then suddenly Tomoyo and Tomoya started dating then the show ended?? Can someone help me lol?
The anime is based on a Visual Novel of the same name. In the Visual Novel, you play as Tomoya and you meet all of the girls in the school. Depending on who you start to connect more, you end up dating them at the end of the game. However, the main storyline (the one where Tomoya ends up dating Nagisa) has an extra long section called Clannad After Story (which the second season follows). That is what these two seasons cover. However, this specific OVA episode is just a "what if" story that you can do in the Visual Novel and it's about Tomoya ending up with Tomoyo and showing how it ended. At the end of After Story, there is another "what if" OVA episode with another character.
Gotta say, always wanted the relationship of these 2 to be cannon. Not to bag on nagisa or the twins or anything like that. Also appreciate the analysis. The complexity of clannad can sometimes be a bit too much for my last 3 neurons to process properly.
Hmmmm... my only "but" about that chapter is precisely the representation of Tomoya against his development until Episode 17 (the point where happened the deviation from the main story to the two special chapters -Kyou's and Tomoyo's-). He was never shown as a pariah in the series, so it didn't have sense to show him as a pariah in that special chapter. Indeed, It was shown in the series that Tomoya had a good relationship with the sporting clubs in his school, so good he could give Tomoyo a popularity shower that was key for her to be elected as student council president. To make the transition from that Tomoya to the Tomoyo's chapter's Tomoya, an useless fellow with a pariah reputation in his school and with a damned future is, seems to me, a plothole just for the sake of the "knight in distress" fanservice
After watching Clannad and playing Clannad Visual novel I've seen how downgraded that single episode is, thoe its good the visual novel made it such a bigger feeling and wonderful read if you shed a tear during an episode, you'll cry a river in visual novel. Highly recommended since its maximum length is about 1 hour, 2 maximum.
For two reasons: 1 - I love cinema from a visual standpoint. So I'm always paying attention to how a film or a show is conveyed visually. It instantly captures my eye, because there is so much to be said through the visuals alone. 2 - It's not normal in Animation to put so much detail into these little movements. So, when it's done, it's to convey something that the Animators and Directors really want to express. Naoko Yamada does this constantly in her shows and films for instance. It's the little movements that end up giving so much life to these characters. And when I watched this scene for the first time / rewatched for this video, I couldn't help but instantly connect with Tomoyo. It's like she's full of emotions, but is doing her best to not let it all out. And because of that, I could feel what she is feeling if that makes sense. Hopefully my explanation made sense.
@@KazeTalks I realise my comment might have come off as a bit rude so I'm sorry for that. I forget that these animators put a lot of effort into these movements/animations. instead I focused more on the plot and overlooked the little stuff. clannad is my favourite anime. I recently rewatched it but it didn't hit the same as it did when I first watched it. after reading your comment I realised that I skipped over the minor details. I should have enjoyed it more but i forgot to appreciate the small things that made clannad my favourite anime. your comment honestly made me realise that there was more to anime than just the plot
@@-samxplayz4507 No worries. It's all good. My main point of making these videos is to showcase how something affects me. So, if my video didn't do a good job at that, then I'm at least happy I was able to explain it further with my comment 🙂
I don't agree that it's "masterful". Only recently discovered that this episode existed at all, barely managed to finish it because it's this bad. Essentially it's a recap episode that compresses a 7 hour (IIRC) route into a 20 min episode. Just why
This is my favorite anime ever. But i never really valued this episode until i watched this video. I guess i never really saw it as he needed someone by his side to push him. But now i really value this episode- thank you so much ❤️
What is most impressive is how they compacted all of that in 1 singular episode and made it flawless
I love how this episode shows that Clannad's brilliance isn't limited only to how invested you get with the characters, but even through just a single episode we see how careful and critical they are when following through with it. As always, I love your videos and I hope you don't stop making them!!
Oh wow, thanks! I’ll do my best to keep making these videos 💪
Yeah. I cried more in Clannad After Story, but Felt sadder through this ONE episode. Not even 5. Not 12/13. Not 26. One.
Im so happy, ive finished clannad like a month ago, and thought im the only one who liked Tomoyo Chapter so much! Im so glad:)
Actually Tomoyo is more popular than you might think. I mean she is the only character to get After Story visual novel although the ending is depressing as hell. Personally I adored her😘
No i loved her in it I was torn because I almost wanted him to never pick nigisa and just go with tomoya
@@atyusriggins3824 Me too I like her more than all the other main characters even the main female lead
After watching all of season 1, I felt like this episode suddenly had far more detail to the animation and the characters were richer too

Thanks! I really appreciate it, I mean it.
I hope you get a chance to read Tomoyo After, it’s an utterly brilliant conclusion to this story and it’s a shame that it never got animated.
I want to read it one day for sure.

Tomoyo's OVA made her best girl in Clannad. Tomoyo After VN made her Waifu for Laifu.
finally someone bringing attention to this amazing ova
Fun fact I realized with your video (as I haven't seen this show in its entirety), it would be interesting to note, that most time we see Tomoya with Tomoyo, he's (mostly) in the shadows, or darkened in someway.

I wish this had a series and make it longer
Thank you for this great video. ❤
Huh, this is really fucking good for one episode
I really loved this video, you have to play the VN Tomoyo after, it's incredible how key can make endearing stories, and Tomoyo after is one of them, for me is good enough as Clannad after story and it is heartbreaking
Its all the matter of One Single Choice....
U can fall in love with anyone...
Some people feel glad that they met each other but they don't know that they could have met another person and said the same thing to them...
Ahh life is strange...
Amazing.. very inspiring💯❤️💯
Definitely will watch this anime
BRO IF YOU DONT COME BACK TO UA-cam ALREADY WE MISS YOU

Thank you! And I do appreciate the constructive criticism. I too think it’s something I could improve upon.
Umm I think they should make more episodes bout the relationship of tomoyo and tomoya.
That last scene of ep 23 always makes me cry😭😭

I can’t decide if the tomoyo or the nagisa spin off is my favorite 🤔but good video!
Nice video! But have you heard of the Clannad Tomoyo chapter manga? It adapts the second visual novel (Tomoyo After) and is really good in my opinion! If you like this OVA episode, you should definitely read this manga or play the game.

It's up in the air in the original vn he does die. But in the new version he falls in to a coma.
Gotta say, always wanted the relationship of these 2 to be cannon. Not to bag on nagisa or the twins or anything like that. Also appreciate the analysis. The complexity of clannad can sometimes be a bit too much for my last 3 neurons to process properly.
Although her after story was depressing 😭
tomoyo after is hands down the best visual novel Key ever created. Tomoyo after and the original ending though. Not the stupid steam version ending

Not yet, but I’ve heard it’s great
Where can I watch after story

Yeah, I heard. Still have to read it some day.

3:25 ok im going tbh wtf was u talking about . why was you paying that much attention to her body movements
For two reasons:
1 - I love cinema from a visual standpoint. So I'm always paying attention to how a film or a show is conveyed visually. It instantly captures my eye, because there is so much to be said through the visuals alone.
2 - It's not normal in Animation to put so much detail into these little movements. So, when it's done, it's to convey something that the Animators and Directors really want to express. Naoko Yamada does this constantly in her shows and films for instance. It's the little movements that end up giving so much life to these characters. And when I watched this scene for the first time / rewatched for this video, I couldn't help but instantly connect with Tomoyo. It's like she's full of emotions, but is doing her best to not let it all out. And because of that, I could feel what she is feeling if that makes sense.
Hopefully my explanation made sense.
@@KazeTalks I realise my comment might have come off as a bit rude so I'm sorry for that. I forget that these animators put a lot of effort into these movements/animations. instead I focused more on the plot and overlooked the little stuff. clannad is my favourite anime. I recently rewatched it but it didn't hit the same as it did when I first watched it. after reading your comment I realised that I skipped over the minor details. I should have enjoyed it more but i forgot to appreciate the small things that made clannad my favourite anime. your comment honestly made me realise that there was more to anime than just the plot
@@-samxplayz4507 No worries. It's all good. My main point of making these videos is to showcase how something affects me. So, if my video didn't do a good job at that, then I'm at least happy I was able to explain it further with my comment 🙂
I didn’t really like this tomoya chapter because I saw it as another ending/ a different ending( I didn’t know clannad after story was a thing).
Hi
Hello
Hey my makes Kaze too
ya
tomoyo is better in my opinion :(
I don't agree that it's "masterful". Only recently discovered that this episode existed at all, barely managed to finish it because it's this bad. Essentially it's a recap episode that compresses a 7 hour (IIRC) route into a 20 min episode. Just why
Am i the only one who finds the forced sentence ending accents very grating? Just speak normally, it's really distracting
my man these videos are so fucking good it’s insane u dont have thousands of subs
Thanks! I’m glad you like them 🙂
This is my favorite anime ever. But i never really valued this episode until i watched this video. I guess i never really saw it as he needed someone by his side to push him. But now i really value this episode- thank you so much ❤️
I’m glad I was able to help. It means a lot. Thank you for your kind words 🙂
Amazing video as always!
Thanks! 🙂
