Yay! Clannad was extended!

Clannad ~After Story~ has finally reached its conclusion with the release of episode 22. A wonderful ending, it was. I usually don't like miraculous happy endings, but I enjoyed the series so much as a whole that it hardly mattered. After all, the whole series was supposed to have a fairy-tale feel.

Besides, Nagisa's and Ushio's deaths were way too sad. I'm glad the ending changed from that of the movie version. It was also very nice to see everyone living their dreams (though I'm still not sure what Sakagami Tomoyo's dream was) or having a good life. I never thought I'd see the old principal again after Nagisa's graduation.

Unlike Winger, I don't need drugs (or helium) to relieve stress and feel paradise. I just watch Clannad. Safer, healthier, legal and just as effective. I'll be sure to bring along this series when studying abroad.

The series also allowed me to find my song of Metafalica. Dango, dango, dango, dango, dango, dango daikazoku. Dango, dango, dango, dango, dango daikazoku. I found it annoying in the first season, but Clannad ~AS~ changed that. Such a happy (happy isn't exact enough, but a more accurate word ain't available in the English language) melody.

Heck, I love almost the entire OST. (Clannad ~AS~ ending theme wasn't nice enough)

Oh right. Title. Uhh... it seems there'll be an episode 23. It'll be an extra depicting a story(s) from 1 year ago, during Clannad's time. Yay!
