Hi, I am Mao~~~ Clannad & Clannad After Story are my favorite animations. I have watched it for almost nine times and they make me cry every time. I am going to show you some my own opinions.
Story: 9/10
This story is very moving.You can find a story in each character and those stories can touch you deeply. It may make you laugh happily firstly and then you cry just after 30 seconds. The main idea of this anime is about family, the relationship between people. I think it can help teenagers a lot, it can teach us a lot about the love from our families.
Art: 8/10
The art is really beautiful and meticulous. This anime story almost happened in spring, so the cherry scenes will appear many times, it is really beautiful. However, the only problem is the character's face. By watching this anime, you can find all character have the same faces but different hair.
BGM: 9/10
Good Background musics often make people lose themselves in watching an anime, it renders people feelings in the stories. The BGMs in Clannad & Clannd After Story are amazing, they are very nice and touching.
Characters: 9/10
This anime completely shows every characters' characteristics. Each characters' back stories is good, we can also get information about characters through their daily life.
Enjoyment: 8/10
It may boring for some people, because it is not about anything which could make you excited like what One Piece does. However, this anime is still attracting many people.
Overall: 9/10
By watching this anime, I learned how important the family is, and I learned how to face the real life whatever how difficult it is. This anime gave me power to face the failure and take my own responsibilities. Family, friendship and love, we can get them in this anime.
