I hope Toei make this good, I am just one Key/Visualart fan. :P *prays hard that KyoAni makes a tv anime series of Clannad too*

Here is a resized scan of the Clannad game promotion back in 2004.

This is one PS2 game that caught my attention, I wondered if anyone like this game too >.< The story starts with Laina Barsett who travels to the Lower World to find a crystal to save his city, Platina which in the upper world. Time is crucial as he needs the crystal to be able to defeat the viruses that’s manifesting from the Tower.

The heroines of the game are none other than the Reyvateils, girls with the ability to cast powerful magicks thru the singing of hymns. Gameplay is pretty interesting, it mixes the traditional rpg exploring style and turn-based battles with some extras - Diving into your heroine’s soulspace and learn her past and secrets that can allow her to learn powerful hymns.

The Reyvateils pack with interesting ‘costumes’ that enhance her ’singing abilities’.

Pretty nice game if u are not picky with the graphics. Gameplay is pretty fun and not to forget, the nice soundtracks in the game too! :D

I recently got my hands on the psp version of kanon. It seems to be similar to the original pc version only without ecchi content. The thing is that it is mobile(duh) and smaller in resolution. I’d say that it is not really be worth buying if you have played the pc version before, unless you are a hardcore kanon fan (i am >.< ).

It’s old news….but here is a promotion poster on the upcoming animation movie by Toei, Clannad. Sigh, I wish KyoAni will be doing the tv anime series just like the way it did Kanon. (i am a Key/VisualArts fan.)

Hi there, bakaboi here

This is my first post in Anime Banzai. Basically I will be posting articles in here in the future.
I wish everyone a very Happy Chinese New Year ~!

よろしく～
