On a related note Kyoto Animation or JC Staff needs to make a full series for Tomoyo storyline. It will be called Clannad Best Girl Afterstory

I felt that Garden of Words had better story but 5cm per second was prettier. Enjoyed both.


If it was called "Clannad Best Girl Afterstory" I'm pretty sure you got the wrong girl. It'd obviously have Kotomi. Which reminds me of that there still isn't a Kotomi Afterstory ova argh screw you kyoani I will never forgive you for that.

It felt like the The Garden of Words in the last few minutes were kinda forced not to mention + Show Spoiler + but that is not my complain. Yet it still had the Signature Makoto Shinkai melancholic end so all is good and well.

Now the next movie i will watch will be Wolf's Children. I hope its really a good one as what reviews had been stating.

And regarding the best girl.
Kotomi is more boring than Nagisa. Yes i declare war

On the best girl point:

A lot of the girls that MCs end up with are like....a lot of them are helpless damsels/clumsy people who have little to no personality outside of a single one dimensional trait that is basically just bait for the wild otaku fanbase.

So for instance in Toradora you get Taiga, who is basically just a tsundere with no other defining qualities. She can't do anything, from cooking to....anything useful. Pretty sure her grades sucked too. She was also intensely abusive. Granted, I was totally fine with it for some odd reason, but that's just the facts compared to someone like Ami.

Then you have in Clannad Nagisa....who is actually a bit better since she's not completely useless. But in Clannad you have people like Tomoyo who is such an all around amazing person. Like...if you watch the Tomoyo OVA the romance in that OVA is so much better than the entire first season of Clannad and is probably better than a good portion of After Story....or maybe all of it I don't know. Kotomi's good too, and Kyou's okay.

It's kind of like how in Little Busters, the main love interest is Rin, but then when you actually follow through with her route, she's so amazingly frustrating to deal with since she literally does nothing and you wonder "Wait a second...why?"

Same thing with Rewrite where you randomly choose Hanakana over THE BEST, CUTEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN. T__T;

Anyway before I start crying about Rewrite again, the examples go on and on so there's no point in me bringing up all too many things. I just want to say that....a lot of times I think the "best" girls are just the girls that are so much better, either from a character standpoint (aka not abusive people) or are more useful in general.

She is pretty blunt and she is lonely and playful(much like haruhi). And sometimes really stupid.

Saw some pretty sick anime fanart. Thought I'd share.
+ Show Spoiler +

Also I finished Shinsekai Yori a while back and loved it. Super good anime. I made my own fanart of it.

I'm pretty sure all harem shows intentionally pick the worst girl so fans are left unsatisfied and can argue over who the best girl is.

+1 Kotomi best girl

Don't know how someone can not vote for Youhei Tomoyo. Actually, youhei was a pretty shit character as well, nvm. I usually love the wise best friend characters who can be goofy sometimes, but Youhei seems to exist solely to make mc look better, and tease with somewhat decent arc.

Slaughter please, objectively best girl is naturally the girl I choose.

Not my fault most people here hasn't seen the best of her because of Kyoani butchering. People should just go read the VN instead of the awful (first half at least) anime, said this way too many times.
