Important details like 5o'clock shadow on Tomoya after the insedent was missing.
CLANNAD MOVIE TERRIBLE MOVIE
The animation for the clannad movie seems to have gone down the drain.
CLANNAD MOVIE TERRIBLE SERIES
It just doesn't live up to the series and I can only give it a 4/10 But you wont find your self laughing histarically and then bring your self to tears like the series. You may find your self laughing once or twice with a little giggle.
CLANNAD MOVIE TERRIBLE TV
You gain much more respect for Youhe i and his story after High school seems a little more built then in the Tv Series. If you took the time to watch through the 1200minutes or so of the series then you might enjoy some of the charter build up. Totally ooposite to Clannad After Sotry Where I was at the edge of my seat with tears running down my cheaks. There wasn't a point where I could bring my self to even the slightest tear. The attempt to even live up to Clannad and Clannad After Sotry was a faliure. The clannad movie follow a very simular story to its predasessors. Being an anime movie that basically sums up the story in 95 minutes serveral things are changed along with characters and events skipped all together. It really is the Clannad “black sheep”.Ĭlannad Movie a movie following the basic story of Clannad and Clannad After Story. I recommend it only for the hard-core Clannad fans.

I highly recommend watching Kyoto Animation’s Clannad and Clannad: After Story instead of this – those are made with so much more love and attention to the subject matter than this film. You have to understand I have reviewed this from the perspective of those like myself who have watched Clannad: The Motion Picture fresh from watching the Kyoto series. This saddened me as I really liked Kotomi in particular. Ibuki-sensei has a much larger role, while characters like Kotomi, Kyou and Tomoyo barely even appear (I believe Ryou and Yukine never show up). Many of the characters remain the same (although Tomoya appears to me more of a dick at the beginning), while some receive very different treatment. The soundtrack is mostly adequate and does its job… apart from the fact that The Big Dango Family song is different and that may upset those who love it (I know it’s a fan favourite). While nearly all of the main characters and supporting cast are sporting the same seiyus as the original visual novel, the main character’s is quite different from the Kyoto seiyu (I know that Tomoya did not have a voice in the visual novel, but it is off-putting to those who have approached this film off the back of the Kyoto series) However Toei has sadly managed to make this film appear cheap in places and its supposedly “edgy” video effects are just off-putting for the most part. While some of them are nice and fit well with whatever scene they are featured in, many seem out of place and some are just plain strange (I thought that my player was having issues at one point, only to realise it was an effect in the film).Īll in all, anime movies are usually expected to have top-quality animation thanks to larger budgets.

The style that Toei decided to use is very much reminiscent of nineties anime like Sailor Moon, and while I understand that there are many people who are fans of this, it is slightly off-putting for those who are used to Kyoto’s more contemporary take on Clannad.Īnother niggle I have with the animation is Toei’s need to use strange effects every few minutes. I realise that this movie was released before the Kyoto series, but it is instantly obvious to those like me who watched that first, that it is a very different style from the original visual novel (which Kyoto Animation followed much closer). I will start off by saying that while I have a soft-spot for Toei Animation due to their work on Dragon Ball in the past, this isn’t the best example of their work. Hell, it’s no better than the recollection episode from After Story, and that summed up the story in about 20 minutes (and gave some characters the same amount of airtime) It is still the great Clannad story, but it predictably feels rushed with certain chunks missing.

we see far too much of Nagisa’s play, even though its only shown for about 2 minutes in the series). I don’t wish to spoil any more than I am already about to do, but it’s clear that Toei’s writers had issues compacting a story that makes up a 47-episode series into one-and-a-half hours, as many important scenes are either given too little screen time or emphasised far too much than they need to be(e.g. The movie’s story is literally both the Clannad and Clannad: After Story series smushed into a single 90-minute feature.
