Is Clannad worth watching if I've accidentally spoiled myself a major plot point? Or is it a show that relies on twists for emotional impact?
>>
Clannad, more like Clannaids. Shits gay and boring.

Why bother watching a shitty anime when you already know the major tear jerk thats actually worth anything
>>
it's comfy and cute
>>
Nagisa will die.

>>140521476
I didn't know if it had any value beyond that.

>>140521499
Yeah, that's the one I knew.
>>
>>140521548
I found it way too melodramatic to be able to get emotionally invested, but it's not a bad watch. I'd say go for it regardlessly.
>>
>>140521270
Don't watch shitty anime from the 2000's decade. Just don't. It's shit and a waste of time.

I think of Clannad as the single most emotionally powerful show I've ever watched, so I'm interested to know what someone who thinks it's melodramatic would give as an example of a good drama.

Go watch Gochuumon wa Usagi desu Ka instead, is good.

You could literally ask the same question about any show
>>
It made me cry and I fucking called it. Also I was on Zoloft at the time so that's saying something.
>>
Clannad was pretty good. The "big spoiler" wasn't even the most emotional scene for me.

Although if you haven't watched it, I'd recommend you play the VN with the old translation instead. The show does the humour slightly better, but everything else in the VN is way better.
>>
It's fine, there is a shitty reset ending.

After Story was interesting for other reasons, not because of the shitty magical ClannAIDS nakige stuff that wouldn't have surprised you at all even without being spoilered.

Keyshit is extremely formulaic. There's like 7 or 8 arcs where something sad and magical happens to every single character in the show before getting to the good part. Anyways, the answer is probably.

No. The most emotional episodes were the ones with Ushio, and there was nothing surprising about them.

Maybe the knowledge of what happens to Nagisa would even make the slightly boring first season more interesting.

It's not an entire show but an individual episode (well, two), but an example of drama that got me is Jupiter Jazz from Cowboy Bebop. I don't feel that's a good example though. The issue I have with Clannad's drama isn't with its execution but the sheer amount of it. As soon as things seem to turn for the better, something happens that makes everything go to shit again. It becomes predictable and it felt unnatural (not just to me either, Okazaki himself states towards the end he feels like fate is messing with him), ruining the impact it would have otherwise. I kinda wish I was able not to see it that way and appreciate it.

I read both, the old one feels better. I'll give the new translation this though: the built-in encyclopedia makes understanding some terms and some minor story elements better if you're not used to anime/jap culture.

>>140522357
Remove key magic from the entirety of the show and cue end music right there. Perfect story.

Their child dies as well.

It's required viewing for posting on /a/ so yes.

fug, dat good taste

I knew some major spoilers and I still enjoyed it and cried A LOT, I'd give it a chance. After Story is when it gets really good so you might have to slug through the first series.
