Been watching KEY's visual novel's anime adapations lately and was wondering which one people prefer.

[Cman21]

i hated the ending to air so it is last. Kanon seemed too similar to Clannad but it was still good it its own way. but Clannad After Story by far takes the cake for best series.

Clannad, because it is one of the few animes that really made me feel what I was watching, plus one of the few that has made me cry.

[Zachimillius]

Will anyone be different?!?!

Admittedly, I have not seen Air, but I do intend to. Thus, have to go for Clannad/AS (although I still wish the last few eps didn't exist).

Indeed. A real tear jerker.
Definitely the best imo, an anime I'd happily re-watch several times.

That is the first time I have seen anyone actually agree with that sentiment! Good stuff.

[Chaossaturn]

Clannad for me.

Because there were sad?

idk about megagold, but by last few eps I meant the episodes after 21 when they started magically bringing people to life. Made all that happened before seem really cheap.
So you see, I really loved it until it became happy lol.
But After Story will always be one of my top favs.

Yup, pretty much the same here.

Like you said, it seemed like we had somewhat wasted all those episodes, and one of my absolute favourite moments in anime never actually happened in the story(the making amends with his dad somewhat). I also liked the hardships that were gone though in the episodes, just to once again find them being pretty much pushed aside into nothingness. FOR ONCE, I thought that I might actually get a sad ending to such a show! But noooooo. (I didn't put that very succinctly, but nvm I'm sure you get the jist.)

if you want sad endings watch air

[WaveZero]

It has to be Clannad for me, and I swear I remember posting this somewhere before.

[Zachimillius]

Still no one is different!

[Koby]

Haven't seen Air yet.
Of the other two in the poll. I really liked both Clannad and Kanon, but going to have to give this to Clannad.

[Zachimillius]

My partner suprise updated my facebook page so that the cover photo thing is of Clannad's female character

Personally, I didn't really care for Air or Kanon...kinda boring honestly. Clannad is definitely the best! I've been hounding my boyfriend to watch it with me but he hates their animation style so he refuses to watch it. xD But yeah, I kinda actually agree with what megagold and ero were saying. Still a great series though.

Well I haven't seen Air yet as I said, but I didn't find Kanon boring. It was rather heartfelt, and up until I saw Clannad, it was #3 on my list of sad anime. It became #4 after that. ef ~ a tale of memories, Clannad ~After Story~, Rumbling Hearts, Kanon. Unless I'm forgetting something on my huge list of shows I've watched. =P

[Mallory]

Haha, yeah I guess it was a bit sad....but on Air, towards the end I was just like 'wtf?' at stuff that happened in the story. Sometimes the supernatural elements they put in these just don't make much sense so it throws everything off, IMO. Guess, maybe we just have different opinions of what's 'sad' lmao.

Do you recommand Schoold Days and Rumbling Hearts?
