this goes hard

Clannad

Just rewatched season 1 after some years. Was worried it would age badly or pale in comparison to After Story like everyone said. Glad to see I still like it, even moreso than the first time.

Something about this era of anime makes it feel special. I actually like that they "spend time" to develop the main cast and slowly tell stories about them. Plot wise, this season is not too different than other high school romcoms I watched, a lot of it is cute girls doing cute things. But there is substance and it eventually builds up into great character development and a bit of lore development. Also really like the musical score, art and backgrounds. (even if they are a little alien looking).

The Good:

• Everything about Nagisa's family
• Fuko's arc (the last few episodes where people forget about her)
• Fuko randomly showing up as a gag in later episodes
• Tomoya and the others fixing up Kotomi's garden
• Tomoya and Tomoyo's heart to heart
• Tomoya and Kyou's locker room scene
• The basketball game
• The final stretch of episodes leading up to Nagisa's play
• Lore development (the short story being told in the beginning of episodes, Kotomi's parents being related to it, later being Nagisa's play, also later leading up to After Story's ending)

The Bad:

• I wanted Sunohara to have some sort of redemption, I actually like his character didn't want them to be mean to him all the time
• Not enough Tomoyo development but I guess the VN exists
• Kotomi's arc was a bit weak, not a fan of her

This season is still a solid 9/10 for me. Might be because of what it's leading up to. But I disagree with anyone who says skip to After Story. Way less impactful when you don't experience the main couple growing like they did here.

EPISODE 21

Azusa saved K-ON! S1

Vinland Saga just aight so far

I wish I could see Stein's;Gate, Assassination Classroom, Beyond the Boundary, Guilty Crown, and Erased for the first time again

I actually had this spoiled for me a while back smh

That said, the way the story builds up to the reveal makes it super obvious in hindsight. Still, I wish I’d had the chance to piece it together on my own.

Season 1? if so, that season is basically a prologue. S2 is where the story rlly starts to shine.
