After the end of the epic Sunohara Siblings arc last week, this week, we are in Misae’s arc. Misae’s route is one of the two routes that I have finished playing in the visual novel, the other one is Kyou’s. So, I have an idea of what’s to come. But still, it’s fun to experience the epic arc again, in anime form. Well, shall we get started then?
I have a question for manga readers out there? Should I read the School Rumble manga? Firstly, I’m a big fan of the anime. I simply adore the series. It has awesome cast of characters and School Rumble is probably the funniest anime I ever watched, not to mention that the love triangle in the series never gets boring.
A little late am I? It’s due to my failed internet connection. It’s slow and the frequent disconnection doesn’t help at all. Hopefully I can get it fixed by tomorrow.
Anyway, episode 4 of CLANNAD ~After Story~ was awesome as expected (or should I say way more awesome). It was certainly an emotional ride from the beginning to the end, everything was perfect. Episode 4 continues where we left back in episode 3. The problems that the cast faces becomes bigger and I can say the same for their relationships..
Mei…
Setsukyie here. I’ll be blogging CLANNAD ~After Story~ here from now on, I’m back from my hiatus and I’m ready to write more posts. What does that mean? It means, get ready for more tl;dr thesis posts. ^_^
Anyway, let’s get back to CLANNAD. This was certainly an enjoyable episode. From the funny moments to the serious stuff, KyoAni sure knows how to balance things. Continuing from last week’s episode, the episode focuses on Mei and Sunohara, and we’re in the Sunohara Siblings route, which was also in the visual novel.
oOgA: This episode of CLANNAD brings lolicon love to an epic level :P Honestly, the scenes portrayed, some were suggestive. :o
Yes, it finally ended. There’s no epic cliffhanger this time, only an epic ending. I have to say, it has been an enjoyable ride from season 1 to season 2 (although I’m kind of late). But yea, I enjoyed it very much, thanks to the anime’s awesome plot, wide range of characters, epic ‘just as planned’ moments, and of course, Lelouch himself, who I now recognize as one of the best anime characters ever.
I have exams today and for the rest of the week. *sigh*
Wish me luck ^_^
Yep..you know it’s coming.. *ACTIVATING FANBOY MODE*
Since nutcase23 is lazy busy with university life and I can say the same for Patz as well, I’ll be taking the responsibility to write the Fall 2008 anime season’s preview. I was supposed to be on hiatus, but oh well, someone has to do this. I can’t just let Anime Banzai! miss out on one of the greatest anime seasons and possibly the best for this year, the Fall 2008 Anime Season.
Fall 2008 has a lot of animes to offer, and I must say, a lot of good ones. Well, it’s much better than Summer 2008, where I only watch one show from that season. As for Fall 2008, a lot of animes caught my eye. Some of them are sequels from last year’s Fall season animes, this includes CLANNAD ~After Story~, ef ~A Tale of Melodies~, and Gundam 00 Second Season, and all three of them are fan’s favorites.
As usual, fellow Banzai-nians, nutcase23, Patz and of course oOgA! will be joining me in this post. Fellow Banzai-nian and the owner of ARIA Anime, Akiraman is also here to share his thoughts. I’ll be listing it in order of their airing date. Images are found on random sites, and the summaries come from Anime News Network, AniDB, Wikipedia, and other sites, so a big thanks to them. Well then, here goes.
Some of you should know that I’m currently in the CLANNAD fever, ever since I started playing the visual novel. Maybe ‘obsessed’ with CLANNAD is a better word. At the same time, I’m in love with Fujibayashi Kyou, one of the girls in CLANNAD. So, you can say that this post is unavoidable, and is expected from me. In this post, I will talk about Kyou, her story, why she is awesome, and why you should love/worship her.
Prepare for a very long post.
…surprised? So am I. Didn’t expect this post coming from someone who complains about episode reviews huh.. And I’m a little late at writing this too. But hey, who cares about that. I’m writing this for the sake of CLANNAD. I’m writing this because I love CLANNAD and I have A LOT to say about this episode. So, don’t blame me..=D
CLANNAD – 24,
Harem lead, a character that is always present in an eroge/visual novel and the anime adaptation of it. If you didn’t know, they are the most important character in visual novels or an anime adaptation of it. I say that because most of the time, people tend to focus on the girls too much but forgets about the most important thing, the person that all the girls love, the person that you play as (visual novel), the person you will see every time, the person who ties all these things together.
