Young R I actually never cried when watch Clannad 😅 in fact I have yet to find an anime that has brought me to tears. Clannad was by far the closest though, there were times when I almost got to that point. I'll give Your Lie in April a watch! I actually have it on a list of mine, but have yet to get around to watching it.
Look at them. Five girls that didn’t know each other when the school year started. Brought together by a delinquent boy with a kind heart and nothing better to do with his life. Too bad Ryou wasn’t in the picture.
@@bendtu No, its because Ryou wasn't a main heroine in the first place. Kyou was. Almost all of the cover/promotion pictures never feature her. You also don't get a light orb when clearing her route.
I like how Tomoya's sadness stems simply from repetition in his life. It's not like he has it bad off, he's simply sad because he feels nothing will change. This is where the majority of my own sadness comes from- it's not because my life sucks or anything, it's because life can get so dull to the point where I feel like I can't stand it, and I find myself asking if things will ever change like Tomoya does here. I think this sort of gloom from being trapped in a seemingly useless, boring, one dimensional world and having no freedom to travel beyond what you're given as mortal beings is largely ignored- Tomoya is the first I've EVER heard of someone sad because nothing changes. That's why I immediately loved his character.
***** I think the best part about Clannad is the realism, especially in Clannad after story. The way Tomoya was known as a delinquent, and how that actually made a difference later in his life was good to see. (I usually hate characters who are only out for adventure, kind of stubborn and bratty, living life as they see it, you know.) Tomoya wad different- he realized his mistakes and tried to turn his life around. I can't tell you how touched I was when Tomoya comes storming into the building, begging for forgiveness when he messes up on his job. And everyone is incredibly kind to him. I was just like "Tomoya is the kind of hard-working guy we need more of in this world." And everyone else saw that too, they KNEW Tomoya was NOT the type to do the bare minimum, and that reflected in how he was treated.
***** I don't mean just anime characters- there's a LOT of characters like that and it bugs me because it doesn't describe how life works realistically. But with Clannad, everything is just so GENUINE. and, Spoiler for anyone out there, I just adored how Tomoya proposes to Nagisa. In EVERY SINGLE proposal anywhere, the guy gets down on one knee as per traditional and the girl screams in joy, tears up, and gasps "yes!" But tomoya and nagisa's proposal was just...so REALISTIC. With Tomoya seeing Nagisa's tears and realizing he loved her, how he paused for a moment as he decides. How he just mutters that they should get married, and Nagisa doesn't even look up. She mutters yes, and they look into eachothers eyes as they realize what's happening. It was just so PURE, it had so much more EMOTION in it than the regular dramatic scene, and I got to say, I'm hardly ever touched my a proposal but that one just got me.
And it just goes to show, that nothing can ever stay the same forever. Nagisa changed his life, and that's really why this story captivated me. I love Clannad so much ;_: It brought out all the different emotions in me, sadness, happiness, frustration, literally everything. I love it when anime can do this to me. Clannad will always have a special place in my heart :3
I hate this city. It's full of all the memories I want to forget about. Go to school every day, chat with friends, and then go back to the home I don't even want to go back to. Will something eventually change, doing this? Will that day come?
Spoiler Alert I've been wondering if everything up to Ushio laying under the tree next to Tomoya at the ending has been a story about his own life and how him and Nagisa got together and when Nagisa was in labor he drifted off and dreamt of a parallel timeline so to speak where Nagisa died and Ushio died from inheriting the same illness. I wonder if that was the other world showing him that he should change his ways, make peace with himself and his past. And his dream ended when Ushio died and he woke back up and was there sitting next to Nagisa laying there upon the floor in good health.
The nostalgia of watching this show for the first time is incredible. This show is not just your standard anime but a work of art that not many know about. Clannad is the best anime out there
Clannad really opened my eyes to my own life I relate because I came out of high school hating my town, hating my father, and hating where my life was destined to go. The last episodes of after story really hit home and made me think long and hard about who I was, who I was turning into, and just how much my father gave just so I can still be here today. I no longer resent the town I live in and even though my father may never know how I think now I regret how I acted and would give everything just to be able to tell him how grateful I am
Today, Nagisa would be 34, Tomoya and kotomi would be 33, the other girls would be 32, and ushio would be 13. It's been 15 years since the VN came out. Time sure does fly by doesn't it?
"I hate this town. It’s too filled with memories I’d rather forget. I go to school every day, hang out with my friends, and then go home. There’s no place I’d rather not go ever again. I wonder if anything will ever change? Will that day ever come?" - Okazaki Tomoya (CLANNAD)
Tbh Clannad pushed me deeper into depression bc even their shitty endings and lifes are better then mine bruh ;-; but yes clannad is a good anime but the endings are trash the tomoyo ending is just depressing. The kyou ending was also kinda shit and the main ending is biggest shit bc nagisa died and i wanted the twins to be the main ending so that tomoya ends with both twins
Its slowly been a year now... a year since ive finished watching clannad for the first time... yet ever since then, i keep coming here or other OST videos to listen to the "Town, flow of time, people" OST of clannad. I have lived in a smaller town ever since i was born. Went to elementary school there, but when i entered high school i was able to go to the big city near my hometown. I finally saw potential in going to school, thinking that maybe i will have more chance and more possibilites there, than staying in my hometown. And while that was indeed true, i started to feel more and more empty. It felt like something was just missing. Unlike Okazaki, its not that i hate my hometown, its just that for some reason whenever im here, i feel so melancholic and cant escape negative thoughts. For some reason, i keep thinking about time and how fast im losing everything i have. The pure feeling of getting old hits so hard, because i realize that i havent done anything worth mentioning. My hometown is the representative of sadness and everything that comes with it. Whenever i feel like that i always come listen to "Town, flow of time, people". The music itself is beautiful, but whenever i read its title it gives me chills. It has everything thats causing me pain. The town (my hometown) that i live in, the time flowing too quickly, and the people ive met becoming only memories. Its such a suffocating feeling. This track helps ease the pain. Thank you, Clannad. 🤎
I finished Clannad last year and ever since I come back almost every day to listen to it's tracks , I simply miss it a lot and I really wish there would have been more but as anime experts said, or the anime communities, the end it's perfect as it is but I wanted more ! I miss it so much ... and I will forever miss it. At the end of the song my hear breaks, it's incredible what effect this anime had on me and how much it fits with real life. And when I think that we will never see anything about anymore, makes it 10 times more sad.
I watched this anime when I was going through depression and a lot of other things and man...it makes you realize a lot of stuff and understand other things...I will forever be fond of this anime because it's so deep it helped me a lot.
Same here, I was facing a very hard existential crisis, and I felt like the characters and I could feel each other's pain, specially on After Story. It was amazing, arriving from school and seeing this piece of art while thinking about my life and stuff.
"Nobody was born here... nobody died...." "If you'd like, I can take you, to a very special place... where all your dreams and wishes come true..." "A play?" "The day before yesterday, I saw a rabbit. Yesterday, I saw a deer. Today, I saw you."
"I hate this town... It’s too filled with memories I’d rather forget. I go to school every day, hang out with my friends, and then go home. There’s no place I’d rather not go ever again. I wonder if anything will ever change? Will that day ever come...?" Oh, if only he could see now how much it would indeed change. It only goes to show that every rose may have it's thorn, but it is none the less, a pretty flower. You gotta make the best of your life and learn to treasure the small things, that may one day fade away from your sight.
Just finished the anime & i'm going to miss seeing these characters.. :c Goodbye nagisa,tomoya, tomoyo,kyou,ryou,kotome,fuko,mei,sunohara, senae & "the old man" always playing baseball cx but yeah.. memories... & when watching anime I feel as if i'm there with the characters.. as if i can feel their emotions.. xc
***** I know what you mean. For me, though, I could identify with almost all of the characters because I could metaphorically connect to all but , like, two of the story arcs that were portrayed. Because of this, I don't view Clannad as the greatest anime, but the greatest piece of cinematography I have seen thus far.
I always remembered this song as the "ooooo-ooooooo" song before I looked up what it was called. As with the other tracks in Clannad, it's amazing in setting the mood and amplifying the emotional impact of the scene.
Lol at that title you came up with. I agree! It's definitely a very memorable/iconic or impactful (however you want to describe it) piece of the sound track. The recurring use of it and other songs to set the mood and amplify emotions in various types scenes, building a shared language of sorts with the viewer, and the many remixes and alternate od complete versions of songs with added vocals that are revealed at extremely important moments in the story are all reasons that Clannad is an absolute masterpiece in my mind.
This anime reminded me how much i resented school,how much i resented everyone there as i sat alone in a corner thinking what this would amount to,also how much i resented my dad for being so strict,but later on i realized that it has to be this way,without any hardships,there is no room for growth;although the only thing that pains me is that i haven't yet amounted to anything to show how grateful i am for being through that time
Pratyush Gawai This anime made me think that I should rethink my family. I should connect with them more. Like Tomoya, I never looked at things from my dad’s point of view, my sister’s point of view, and so on... until I saw those episodes of Clannad After Story and saw my flaws more clearly. This anime was also probably the reason why I began to handle problems in better ways in life. I never expected the best (because Clannad reminded me that nothing will stay the same, so even if I did well in one situation, I shouldn’t expect that the same may occur in another situation), and as a result, I became less stressed. Without being so strict towards myself, I actually ended up doing better in life.
the music in clannad fits every aspect of life. it sounds crazy to think of, but every song fits some situation. the music can be used as the perfect emotional sound track. back in high school i used to go to the beach at night, sit on the rocks and look out to the endless ocean and place songs from clannad. its when i realized that even though my town is ugly, small, and flawed, its where i grew up. and anywhere else just wouldnt be home.
@@Hellothere-gg8id trust me friend, you're gonna eat those words in 10 years lol. I wish I had enjoyed my life back at school instead of withdrawing from everyone, once you reach your mid to late twenties you realize how small many of your problems had been, and how few opportunities you have to do all the things you used to be able to on a daily basis.
This. This song. It's just perfect, the sadness, the emotion, but also the happiness is just a clash of differentiating tides of uncontrolled waves of emotion and it's just so... perfect.
While there are so many incredible and unique animes out there, I've gotta say with hand in heart, Clannad/Clannad After Story will always have a place in my heart. A show like that is quite literally life changing. And the soundtrack, mesmerising!
This is so relaxing and nostalgic. I only finished Clannad about four or five weeks ago, and the nostalgia is already killing me when I hear the music.
This song reminds me of my old town that I used to live in as a child just walking on the sidewalk looking at all of the cars driving by and waiting for the rain to stop so I can see the shine again. Playing at the park with my family and just having the time of my life now I’ve moved from that city. I miss it but thing’s change you can’t do anything about that. “Nothing can stay unchanged. Fun things… Happy things… They can’t possibly stay the same.” Nagisa Furukawa
My town was dull, though it was where I created my most treasured memories. And I always feared change. Middle school was where I realized the kindest people were by my side and I loved being at school. In that town, everyone cared about each other. In that town, I fell in love with the kindest boy I’ve ever known and I still love him knowing that he might as well have forgotten about me. In that town, I found my best friend. In that town, I opened up to my friends. In that town, I became a better person. In that town, I was happy. But I guess, happy things don’t last forever because I moved during my second year of high school. I moved from the only place I ever loved because I didn’t want to be separated from the place where my only memories were from. I didn’t want to be separated from my happiness. Now in this town, it’s actually a beautiful place, but no true happiness lies here. No memories have been created since I moved here. No one really cares about anyone here. It’s just really me and the world who’s in search for the return of my happiness... which is back in that town.
Ikr! After that happening so many times I've now been thoroughly conditioned to the point that just listening to it makes me tear up or fully cry, even many years after my last rewatching. Pavlov would be proud I guess. 😂 (I know this comment I'm replying to is like 7yrs old but here I am back listening to the Clannad soundtrack again after all these years, so oh well lol.)
As I'm coming to the end of high school, I listen to this song. I look back and see how much has changed over the years, for better and for worse. But I remember change is good. And to always remember everything that happens.
Wow, 9 years later........ no one will read this so ill write this for me in the future. So much has changed. Since then I reunited with my mom. (Single mother) got married had a daughter. Lost them both. Broke of ties with my mother due to extenuating circumstances. Lost friends due to suicide... Lost family due to time. The places I used to enjoy now only bring me pain. I'm filled with regret for the choices I made and the ones I didn't. I watched Clanned because watching Tomoya do his best as the shit he was delt made me feel better that I didn't have it as bad..... Now I wish I could go back to when I first wrote this. Literally redo everything. Unfortunately i don't have light orbs, and this isn't a story. Hopefully future me, if you see this. You did well...
Then you missed the point. Clannad is not a tragedy. It is a declaration that life is worth living, even when it seems like there is nothing worth living for.
@@BladeOfLight16 exactly, Clannad is possibly my favorite of all time and is so meaningful to me because it helped me through some very dark times. I'm actually here listening to the soundtrack on youtube all these years later because I'm thinking of rewatching it for the first time in many years to help me with these dark times too.
Okazaki Tomoya... You worked hard to raise your family, I admit it; I admire you. After all what happened you kept going with your son… Just how selfish can I be... To think I would have suicided in your place? You had a reason to fight for. You had a reason to carry on... I watched this 2 years ago. It took me a while to watch because it's not my style of anime but... I will never cry as much as I did with you Clannad. Thanks for existing. Thanks to the authors.
Every time i listen to this OST i remember all the friends i had, the good and bad times we had, the crazy funny moments, and the unforgettable memories. Eventually one after the other one walked away, forgot about one another, or moved... Before i knew it... There was just 3 of us and in so little time we went our separate ways and now I'm just a lone wolf...
I just watched the first season. And I am about to watch After Story. I try to avoid spoilers although I feel like I don't understand anything. But at this point I feel like so many people are touched by this anime because it shows actual problems actual teenagers would have. Maybe the fear of forgetting or the fear of regretting something you are about to do. Fear of losing friends, and making new friends/ being new. Problems at home, feeling like you have no one to talk to. As I said. I don't get it yet, maybe I never will. But I am entertained anyways because it keeps you busy with all these fates to worry about.
Maybe i should just start to watch both seasons of Clannad just because of the music , the story and the characters. I wish i could forget it and watch it without knowing the end T.T
There's something about this ethereal soundscape that will always be hauntingly beautiful as melancholy as it is - i always think of Tomoya's "I hate this town" narration from After Story
Gosh this song brings back feelings inside me I can't experience any other way. It brings me back to a place. Makes me smell and hear and feel this place. It's like feeling something else from a distant world...
I don’t know why but this song makes me cry like I know it from somewhere not from the show but from somewhere it makes fill like I’m at home and not in this world anymore I wonder why it fills so familiar it just dose i don’t know why
It makes me fill good and sad like a memory from the past that I never knew this song dose something to me that I don’t know what it is but makes full like I’m back home where I belong
Good that it's helpful :) Since I will not be able to answer everyone's comments and questions, I include that on most of my videos to hopefully answer some questions in my place.
this tune mix all the emotion and bring tears .................. .......................................................why it feel sad .........because ending is happy
Anyone else using headphones notice how the sounds at the beginning constantly transfer between your left and right ears?
yeah, I did
Yeah I adore this feeling
Yeah it's nice
+Instygan I download all the Clannad's OST lol and i'm learning Nagisa's OST on piano
I've got ear buds in listening. The music flows from right to left constantly. It's freaking gorgeous. What a masterpiece
Clannad and Clannad After Story has the most beautiful music in all of anime. I simply can not get enough of it.
agreed
Well, they are something but you should consider watching "Your lie in april."
@@asifullah9779 It's good.....but is it better than Clannad: Afterstory?
*hmmm*
we'll have to see about that :P
Try Little Buster's , it's like Clannad and their music too
Spoilers : it's from a game
The nostalgia...the emotion...I doubt any anime will ever hit so many people like Clannad did. Hell, even the sound tracks bring grown men to tears.
True thatt
Try 5 centimeters per second. But prepare your tissues and your mental state.

Look at them. Five girls that didn’t know each other when the school year started. Brought together by a delinquent boy with a kind heart and nothing better to do with his life. Too bad Ryou wasn’t in the picture.
This might be the best summary of the first season I've read.
@@bendtu No, its because Ryou wasn't a main heroine in the first place. Kyou was. Almost all of the cover/promotion pictures never feature her. You also don't get a light orb when clearing her route.
@@marvinrobertuy4656 what about Yukine? You get an orb of light for her arc. I'm kinda sad that she's forgotten. My favorite character arc so far.

Because of this, I don't view Clannad as the greatest anime, but the greatest piece of cinematography I have seen thus far.
You forgot someone....USHIO
Watch movie too. It gives some backstory to tomoya. How he injured his shoulder etc.
I always remembered this song as the "ooooo-ooooooo" song before I looked up what it was called. As with the other tracks in Clannad, it's amazing in setting the mood and amplifying the emotional impact of the scene.
Lol at that title you came up with. I agree! It's definitely a very memorable/iconic or impactful (however you want to describe it) piece of the sound track. The recurring use of it and other songs to set the mood and amplify emotions in various types scenes, building a shared language of sorts with the viewer, and the many remixes and alternate od complete versions of songs with added vocals that are revealed at extremely important moments in the story are all reasons that Clannad is an absolute masterpiece in my mind.
@@revenevan11 Very well said!
Ooooooo-ooooooooooo ooooooooo-ooooooooo
This anime reminded me how much i resented school,how much i resented everyone there as i sat alone in a corner thinking what this would amount to,also how much i resented my dad for being so strict,but later on i realized that it has to be this way,without any hardships,there is no room for growth;although the only thing that pains me is that i haven't yet amounted to anything to show how grateful i am for being through that time
I see these comments everywhere. That one guy who has to talk about how much their life sucks cuz the video is sad.
Pratyush Gawai This anime made me think that I should rethink my family. I should connect with them more. Like Tomoya, I never looked at things from my dad’s point of view, my sister’s point of view, and so on... until I saw those episodes of Clannad After Story and saw my flaws more clearly. This anime was also probably the reason why I began to handle problems in better ways in life. I never expected the best (because Clannad reminded me that nothing will stay the same, so even if I did well in one situation, I shouldn’t expect that the same may occur in another situation), and as a result, I became less stressed. Without being so strict towards myself, I actually ended up doing better in life.
the music in clannad fits every aspect of life. it sounds crazy to think of, but every song fits some situation. the music can be used as the perfect emotional sound track.
back in high school i used to go to the beach at night, sit on the rocks and look out to the endless ocean and place songs from clannad. its when i realized that even though my town is ugly, small, and flawed, its where i grew up. and anywhere else just wouldnt be home.
true
I play this soundtrack in my mind while i walk to school. It always makes me remember how horrible my life is, and always will be.
@@Hellothere-gg8id trust me friend, you're gonna eat those words in 10 years lol.
I wish I had enjoyed my life back at school instead of withdrawing from everyone, once you reach your mid to late twenties you realize how small many of your problems had been, and how few opportunities you have to do all the things you used to be able to on a daily basis.
this is my favorite soundtrack from clannad
it is so beautiful
i like shining in the sky tooo
I like this, Roaring Tides 1 and 2, and Dango Daikazoku. They all are really good.
snowfield
This. This song. It's just perfect, the sadness, the emotion, but also the happiness is just a clash of differentiating tides of uncontrolled waves of emotion and it's just so... perfect.
While there are so many incredible and unique animes out there, I've gotta say with hand in heart, Clannad/Clannad After Story will always have a place in my heart. A show like that is quite literally life changing. And the soundtrack, mesmerising!
This is so relaxing and nostalgic. I only finished Clannad about four or five weeks ago, and the nostalgia is already killing me when I hear the music.
watched this when i was 14 in the middle of an exsistential crisis. just hearing this song brings back all the emotions.
there's something so nostalgic about this soundtrack. I love it!
Man, Clannad turned my life around instantly.
Same.
Every time I listen to this piece of music I'm back to the autumn from last year where my class made a four days trip to a monastery
This has got to be the most beautiful and greatest anime song ever, kudos. Its so beautiful to listen to.
One of the best OSTs ever composed, this was the track that pushed me into listening to OSTs as much as I do. I seriously owe CLANNAD a lot.
The nostalgia ... the feelings I get ... this anime is without a doubt the most powerful I've ever seen.
Same for me, 100%
This song reminds me of my old town that I used to live in as a child just walking on the sidewalk looking at all of the cars driving by and waiting for the rain to stop so I can see the shine again. Playing at the park with my family and just having the time of my life now I’ve moved from that city. I miss it but thing’s change you can’t do anything about that.
“Nothing can stay unchanged. Fun things… Happy things… They can’t possibly stay the same.” Nagisa Furukawa
I walk to school everyday waiting for death.
This song(especially the beginning) makes my body FEEL something words can't describe.
My town was dull, though it was where I created my most treasured memories. And I always feared change. Middle school was where I realized the kindest people were by my side and I loved being at school. In that town, everyone cared about each other. In that town, I fell in love with the kindest boy I’ve ever known and I still love him knowing that he might as well have forgotten about me. In that town, I found my best friend. In that town, I opened up to my friends. In that town, I became a better person. In that town, I was happy.
But I guess, happy things don’t last forever because I moved during my second year of high school. I moved from the only place I ever loved because I didn’t want to be separated from the place where my only memories were from. I didn’t want to be separated from my happiness.
Now in this town, it’s actually a beautiful place, but no true happiness lies here. No memories have been created since I moved here. No one really cares about anyone here. It’s just really me and the world who’s in search for the return of my happiness... which is back in that town.
Our home is where we make it and happyness can be found even in the darkness times but only if you remember to turn on the light
My light broke
my friend Liam Faye sampled this on the first song of his album coming soon. beautiful.
A song and a thousand memories of what I've lived and what I haven't had.
You know you gotta get ready to tear up once this song starts playing...
Ikr! After that happening so many times I've now been thoroughly conditioned to the point that just listening to it makes me tear up or fully cry, even many years after my last rewatching. Pavlov would be proud I guess. 😂
(I know this comment I'm replying to is like 7yrs old but here I am back listening to the Clannad soundtrack again after all these years, so oh well lol.)
This was the best anime in its time I could say,
One of the anime of all time
i love clannad ,this song is so emotional for me *-*
As I'm coming to the end of high school, I listen to this song. I look back and see how much has changed over the years, for better and for worse. But I remember change is good. And to always remember everything that happens.
Wow, 9 years later........ no one will read this so ill write this for me in the future. So much has changed. Since then I reunited with my mom. (Single mother) got married had a daughter. Lost them both. Broke of ties with my mother due to extenuating circumstances. Lost friends due to suicide... Lost family due to time. The places I used to enjoy now only bring me pain. I'm filled with regret for the choices I made and the ones I didn't. I watched Clanned because watching Tomoya do his best as the shit he was delt made me feel better that I didn't have it as bad..... Now I wish I could go back to when I first wrote this. Literally redo everything. Unfortunately i don't have light orbs, and this isn't a story. Hopefully future me, if you see this. You did well...
I want to be your friend?
Can we be friends?
I reading this .@@supertris1174
I read it . Can we be friends? I want to talk to you@@supertris1174
@@supertris1174 let's talk.
@@kathir4717 what is there to talk about?
Im gonna watch this anime again
Clannad’s such an amazing series.
Watched this anime when i was going through depression...
B A D I D E A
Then you missed the point. Clannad is not a tragedy. It is a declaration that life is worth living, even when it seems like there is nothing worth living for.
@@BladeOfLight16 exactly, Clannad is possibly my favorite of all time and is so meaningful to me because it helped me through some very dark times. I'm actually here listening to the soundtrack on youtube all these years later because I'm thinking of rewatching it for the first time in many years to help me with these dark times too.
I watched clannad while I was depressed and I still am. Clannad helped me lighten my depression but i will always be like that.
Okazaki Tomoya... You worked hard to raise your family, I admit it; I admire you. After all what happened you kept going with your son…
Just how selfish can I be... To think I would have suicided in your place? You had a reason to fight for. You had a reason to carry on...
I watched this 2 years ago. It took me a while to watch because it's not my style of anime but...
I will never cry as much as I did with you Clannad. Thanks for existing. Thanks to the authors.
この曲を聞く時は夢を見てるみたいな感じがする..
dayum this is 12 years old.. i feel old
Such a powerful track you know something is wrong when this play
Just close your eyes relax and enjoy this amazing song💯
Every time i listen to this OST i remember all the friends i had, the good and bad times we had, the crazy funny moments, and the unforgettable memories. Eventually one after the other one walked away, forgot about one another, or moved... Before i knew it... There was just 3 of us and in so little time we went our separate ways and now I'm just a lone wolf...
same tbh
I literally can't deal with this song. It just brings back all of my dread feelings from the anime. This anime fucked me up.........
I just watched the first season. And I am about to watch After Story. I try to avoid spoilers although I feel like I don't understand anything. But at this point I feel like so many people are touched by this anime because it shows actual problems actual teenagers would have. Maybe the fear of forgetting or the fear of regretting something you are about to do. Fear of losing friends, and making new friends/ being new. Problems at home, feeling like you have no one to talk to.
As I said. I don't get it yet, maybe I never will. But I am entertained anyways because it keeps you busy with all these fates to worry about.
This song always calms me down. God bless Clannad
Maybe i should just start to watch both seasons of Clannad just because of the music , the story and the characters. I wish i could forget it and watch it without knowing the end T.T
Same here dude
nagisa is ressurected, happy ending.
@@blandon93 then ushio and tomoya have woke up and fuko was sleeping
Im coming here every year.
Probably i will be coming back here in the next 30 years.
This is the best song within the entire soundtrack
There's something about this ethereal soundscape that will always be hauntingly beautiful as melancholy as it is - i always think of Tomoya's "I hate this town" narration from After Story
I love the "information about this song" that you put on each one.
The compositors of this masterpiece are brilliant.
Gosh this song brings back feelings inside me I can't experience any other way. It brings me back to a place. Makes me smell and hear and feel this place. It's like feeling something else from a distant world...
my chest feels so heavy when i listen to this, my heart starts to feel weird and i can't explain this feeling
0:01 instant goosebumps
watched this anime 3 years ago and still cant let go of the soundtracks
This music....is really something else
It's sad for sure but there's a lot of 'hope' mixed in it, it kinda makes me hyped.
So many feels. But in a strange way, it reminds me to push forward and to remember that you will love again.
this is so nostalgic and chill
the warm feeling in my heart while listening to this
带上耳机会有一种很奇妙的感觉(马来西亚Clannad粉)
By far the best sound track of all time
I would love to have a mp3 that payed this ost controled by my emotions
I am crying so beautiful😢🥺😖❤
The masterpiece
This song is a triumph of music direction
This is breath taking. Just wow ....
Omg, I'm gonna cry... ;w;♥
same.................... Its too much for me ;(
"Don't worry Raku-Chan. You're not alone and....you'll never be alone.....we'll always be here for you..."
😭😭😭 I'm crying, listening this theme😭😭😭
I love this song. Strangely enough though, it kind of cheers me up.
This... this... along withvdreans come true. .. this gives me the most feels...
This one track led to me watching the entirety of both series.
This is the signature ost of clannad!
This song always touches my soul.
clannad soundtracks help me sleep

I absolutely love this song. It is so beautiful.
Best anime track foreveeeeer
This ost always makes me think about my life
This anime left me broken
I don’t know why but this song makes me cry like I know it from somewhere not from the show but from somewhere it makes fill like I’m at home and not in this world anymore I wonder why it fills so familiar it just dose i don’t know why
It makes me fill good and sad like a memory from the past that I never knew this song dose something to me that I don’t know what it is but makes full like I’m back home where I belong
Just by listening to this my heart feels the sadness, man I loved this anime
Good that it's helpful :) Since I will not be able to answer everyone's comments and questions, I include that on most of my videos to hopefully answer some questions in my place.
this tune mix all the emotion and bring tears ..................
.......................................................why it feel sad .........because ending is happy
