Yeah My Anime List and other sources are all saying that there are only 23 episodes... Well technically 22 because the last one is going to be an extra episode like last time.. I still wonder if they are planning an OVA then....

Spoiler!

Well the next episode is called The End of The World.... And the one after that is called Tiny Palms....

The Extra Chapter is called Events from One Year ago so I'm thinking at this point Kyo Ani will Kill Ushio(The End of The World) and then they'll Kill Tomoya off(Tiny Palms) and then the series will end but in the Extra Chapter what might happen is they'll show what the Light in Episode 19 was about.

Yeah odds are that's what's gonna happen. Ep 23 will be awesome though.

If they do an OVA I hope they'll do another After. Kotomi After or Kyou After would be great. Though, I doubt they'd top Tomoyo After.

Episode 21:

Spoiler!

Nigjiaaaaaaa! *Kikiz vents out anger on Aa*
Ushio can't be dead~ She can't~ Something might happen in the next episode~ Everything will be tear-jerking and happy because Ushio isn't actually dead and gets saved or something~

Uwah~


I like the ending.. Though I must admit I like the Dango Daikazoku song more~ <3

Episode 21:

Spoiler!

I teared up. That really would be the end of the world for any father. Ushio tried her hardest, she really did. It just..... If we don't get a true ending I don't know what I'm gonna do.

Please let the ED be destroyed. It ruins everything. I want my Dango Daikozuku back!

Why the ED should die(Contains massive spoilers)

Spoiler!

1.It ruined Nagisa's and Ushio's great death scenes.... I tolerated Nagisa's because it was alright but the fact that it has ruined not only Nagisa's but also Ushio's really pisses me off....
2. Why are the people walking backwards?
3. Why did that grandmother person and Naoyuki randomly get added to the ED(In walking backward fashion)

Okay... Not really why it should die but just questions..... The song however is awesome... Lia Rules.. Tori no Uta ftw!

The only problem is that I can't upload any other videos! And that really really gets on my nerves... To say that I even tried uploading a better version of me playing the Dango Daikazoku song and it keeps on saying "unknown error occured". Uwaaah!

Oh, and just by the way, If they just swaped the opening theme and the ending theme, it would be awesome too...

Since the opening theme suits sad and happy times and it's an awesome some. I'm arranging it for the piano right now~ <3

The Finale....

Spoiler!

To be extremely honest I enjoyed Nagisa being dead..... I enjoyed her being dead because we got to see another side to Tomoya.... Now episode 22 was very disappointing because it threw the realistic things of the whole story and bought her back to life.... Of course I knew that it was going to happen... Although having Tomoya go back in time did get around the fact that Nagisa died and it was a way of cheating out of the reality of things.... The series was saved at the last moments by Kyou in full Sensei mode!!!! That is ultimately awesome...

So next week is going to have Nagisa as the main character and showing her perspective of her meeting Tomoya.....

The End:

Spoiler!

Dissapointment!! Oooooh, the dissapointment! Nagisa coming back to life, whether it's an alternative dimention fo whatever... Well, it wasn't that bad but it could have been loads better. Like Okazaki helping Ushio to grow up into a great person, just bringing Ushio back to life is good enough. Nagisa too was just too to the extreme point.

What I did find amazing was the whole junk-being and the girl to just explode with the world and all and come back to their "other self". The whole explosion scene was intense.

One question though. Since Ushio's the girl in the world that ended, Nagisa, her too would naturally know about it(in CLANNAD, the theater play). However, the girl in the world that ended existed long before Ushio was ever born. Then if that were to be the case, it means she moved from Nagisa to Ushio since Nagisa died. But then, Nagisa came back to life in the ending. And so, the girl is Ushio. But then, the question becomes "how does Nagisa know about the world that ended, the girl and the junk-being-robot?"

...Did I make it sound too confusing?

Spoiler!

From what I understand Ushio existed in "that" world before the real world. She said the lights were her feelings. If that's the case then maybe she could have used the lights to give Nagisa knowledge about the other world? Since Nagisa was surrounded by the lights a lot it would make sense. Tomoya only knew because he existed in both worlds simultaneously.

Spoiler!

Unlike the rest of you I adored the ending. I wanted a True End and I really liked how they tied it all together. Tomoya found the lights and their power put everything right. The scene between him and Nagisa was touching and the little epilogue was great as well. This.....is surprising. Clannad is now tied as my favorite anime along with Gurren Lagann. I never thought I'd see the day......

This post I found on MAL will explain my feelings on the ending and the ending itself much clearer.

Spoiler!

If I'm not mistaken, Ushio had been reincarnated or some sort to become the girl in the Illusionary world, she created the robot, Tomoya, and collected miracles. To be able to save her father, her mother, and herself from the path that was laid, but Tomoya needed to realize and live without them and in the end still want Nagisa, instead of regretting meeting her.

So, a miracle was produced like many have throughout the series. I LOVED this ending, it was perfect. I understood, I didn't even play the game and I couldn't have wanted it any other way. People that are saying it shouldn't have ended this way, because it was so unrealistic? Orbs and miracles have been mentioned plenty of times before, even in Kanon 2006. Miracles are produced and sent to the Ushio of the other world, who collects them. I would love if someone were to correct me if I'm wrong too, these are just my assumptions.
