Clannad After Story... NOT!


This snippet was taken from TV5 Animega's Facebook Page, yes folks, Clannad will not be replaced by its sequel, Clannad: After Story. Based on this reply, it seems it will follow what Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion did almost a year ago to R2. But the rather big question is, what show will replace Clannad? Is it Inuyasha? Clannad will have a second run? A new anime that was not revealed by the higher ups just like they always do back in its first year!

It's Official. Clannad Will Air on Monday!


It's official just earlier in their Facebook fan page, they have announced that TV5 will air Clannad on April 19. Clannad is based on a visual novel made by Visual Key who also produced other successful visual novels namely, Kanon and Air.

Here's a summary from Wikipedia.
Clannad's story revolves around Tomoya Okazaki, a third year high school student who dislikes his life. Tomoya's mother (Atsuko) died when Tomoya was young, leaving his father (Naoyuki) to raise him. After the accident, Tomoya's father turned to alcohol and gambling, and held frequent fights with his son. One day, Naoyuki, again arguing with his son, slammed Tomoya against the wall, dislocating Tomoya's shoulder. Ever since then, his father has treated Tomoya nicely, but distantly, as if Tomoya and he were strangers rather than a family. This hurts Tomoya more than his previous relationship with his father, and the awkwardness of returning home leads Tomoya constantly to stay out all night. Additionally, the injury disables Tomoya from participating in his basketball club, and pushes him to distance himself from his school and other activities. Thus his delinquent life begins. Tomoya's good friend Youhei Sunohara, who got thrown out of the soccer club for a dispute, is also a delinquent and often hangs out in his dorm room with Tomoya doing nothing much.
Based on the summary, expect these show to be quite a tear jerker! The anime was produced by Kyoto Animation, best known for the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and Lucky Star that just ended last Monday. Wow. So, TV5 is sort of the official station for KyoAni works? Cool.
