Well, I knew the plot.
For Bakemonogatari, they haven't announced an air date for the next episode yet. Considering how iirc they are not slated for DVD release till somewhere in Jan or later...yeah.

Yeah .... i watched 4 or 5 episodes long time ago and I remember being annoyed that after 3 episodes or so there was new plot starting and it all didn`t make a lot of sense so I stopped

Kampfer, Ep. 9. Senou fails. I know harem leads tend to be annoying, but this guy is just downright stupid. Shizuku, Akane, and Mikoto keep me watching however; just get with one of these three (Shizuku preferably). And as if we didn't know about his crush, Sakura...

Clannad = only anime to make me cry. EVER. Actually, it's the only media at all to make me cry. Ppl who are watching after story. MORE TEAR JERKERS AHEAD!

Shizuku is just plain awesome. "A token of thanks", lol.

As for what Clannad's about... I suppose you could call it a highschool anime (season 1, at least), but the story is so, so good. Each arc starts out pretty lighthearted, then the drama steadily increases until the tear-jerker conclusion. Most of what I like about it stems from the emotional impact of the series. I guess it's just easy to sympathize with the characters. On a lesser note, Clannad's also notable in that the characters actually grow up for once in the After Story.
Speaking of which, did anyone find Mei's arc kinda creepy? I mean, it was cute and everything, but there was just this creepy undertone throughout. I noticed they toned it down a bit in the anime... + Show Spoiler [VN spoilers] +Sunohara's a total bastard in this route too. Lost any respect I had gained for him after the turning Kyou down in her route. -_-
|
Sunohara family route creepy? If you meant the possibility of Mei getting hit on, just consider how in the game, you didn't have Nagisa as a buffer 
Also, I think UFO is talking about Bakemonogatari. If you can't accept that kind of style of storytelling (moving between slightly larger blocks, I suppose), then you won't be able to watch a lot of things. Or read them at that.

I was referring to the "can I kiss you" stuff. The rest of it was fine, for the most part.

Whenever I watch Clannad with my mother, + Show Spoiler +she always forces me to skip the part when Nagisa dies. A bit too much for a mother to bear.

you watch anime with your mom?
0_o
on a related note + Show Spoiler +Episode 18 made me cry sooo much. I didn't cry when Nagisa died, but episode 18... T_T. In the next couple episodes, I was also going like, "are you serious you going to let Ushio die too?!?!?" the whole entire time... I think I could relate more because I have a younger sibling who is 6 years old.

Your mom is pretty cool. My parents are all like "Anime? Isn't that for kids?"
|
Well my mother was born in Japan and read lots of manga and anime back in her day. She watched Astro Boy, Lupin III, and read several shoujo manga. She also told me several interesting stories about otakus in her school. Perhaps the best thing about her is that she sat down and watched 99 episodes of Naruto with me when I was in 5th grade.(Please do not kill me konadora) She also sat down and watched Lucky Star, Death Note, and several Miyazaki films.
One thing my mother told me about anime is that it really changed. The big thing back in her day were sports and music if I remember correctly. Also, my father watched some parts of Lucky Star once when he heard my sister and I laughing but the stuff he likes is Miyazaki, especially Ponyo since it made the access counter on his site skyrocket. But other than Miyazaki, he could care less for it but he did express some interest in Haruhi and Death Note and asked me about it.

Zomgggg
My mum thinks anime is cute but has never watched any of it with me lol My dad probably just wont get it and doesn't have enough time
I guess ive watched a little bit of ghibli with them but thats it.
Oh well time to start Air now (the weakest of the 3?) and then im gonna be lostttt in terms of what to watch
|
Air was unable to move me like Clannad did, but when I think about the story, excluding the bad dialogue, it could be argued that it is the most depressing one out of the 3.

+ Show Spoiler +I felt the same. I felt numb after episode 16, but oh god episode 18, the tears won't stop; cried straight through he next two episodes.
On a related Lucky Star note + Show Spoiler +Did anyone else cry in episode 21 where Konata's mom comes to visit? That was a interesting experience for me; I was crying yet laughing one after the other. Feels weird.
