that was a good ending for his story i actually did his story from the game right before i watched it but i was good how they ended up closing his story it was a bit more serious from other eps but its not like they could pull it off any other way

i found the ending of this arc a bit too lame and uncreative. In the end, all it took was putting his sister in a situation where she´s bullied, and all´s back to normal. The initial problem, Sunohara not getting further in life, wasnt resolved at all.
What i liked, though, was how this episode showed why Tomoya and Sunohara are called delinquents, haha, was great when they started beating up the soccer team.
A 1440*1080 3.98 Gb raw transport stream for Ep1 is available.
That means quality will come, at last.
I wonder if eventually the quality raws will be available at the same time as the others, or if we should wait a bit for HD releases.

The ending of this arc was pretty alright. It wasn't as "spectacular" as some of the best from last season, but it concluded well enough. Best part was Sunohara and Tomoya letting it all out in their fight, as well as the backstory of how they actually met.
The way they had Sanae reveal her identity was completely predictable, but Sunohara's idiocy and Tomoya's setup kept it funny never the less.
Like MFauli said, they ever actually moved Sunohara forward into thinking about a career after school. His final words only hinted that he'll treasure his time here in highschool, which of course wasn't the point. But anyhow, the arc concluded in such a way with Sunohara redeeming himself as a brother, if not a student, that I don't really feel it was incomplete. Emotionally anyhow.
Next arc, Misae-san - the dorm lady who was such a hit in the first Clannad ep, but was never developed on.

I really did enjoy the scene where they beat the crap out of each other. I thought that was certainly due, and I wondered if Tomoya would actually end up fighting Sunohara before that, in the classroom. Did Tomoya even tell Sunohara that he wasn't actually dating Mei?
No. I don't think so. Sunohara did yell in surprise and asked why Nagisa was still sticking around. Add that to how she was over him, stopping him, and in a sense, protecting Tomoya, I think even the idiotic Sunohara got the answer.
Then again, he never once realised Sanae was Akio's girl

Edit: I liked this episode a lot, mainly because it moved away from out main cast and explored an entirely different setting that was Misae's highschool. I see no doubt that Shima's Misae's cat, now that it's giving Tomoya visions, as well as the strongly suggesting "Forever with you". Just check out his hair/eye colour.
I'm speculating that Shima wasn't the kid Misae talked to in the hospital, but rather the cat on his lap. The boy probably didn't make it through, but tried anyway, despite her words. His last wish was to grant Misae hers, which the cat decided was his mission to carry out. One clue was how Shima doesn't remember what she said, just the effect it had, suggesting it probably never understood her. Second is just how the preview sounds when he says "I came to grant that wish".
It may well be wrong, but it does provide a basis for how a boy suddenly got some wish-granting powers.
And at the end of the day, Tomoya will suggest the cat be named Shima, triggering Misae's memories yet again.
I'm really liking this arc, even though it'll be a short one. The supernatural theme and the tear-jerkiness that should come remind me of Fuuko's arc.

Wah, i totally mixed up Sanae and Misae´s name, and wondered for the whole episode "huh, do they have the same name, or what" lol
whatever, i found this episode rather boring. Misae seems just TOO unconnected to the main cast, and long flash backs dont help...i just dont like long flash backs, not that this one was particular bad
I'd think the ones who should be mixed up are Misae and Kyou. I wasn't really aware of it before this, but those two have some striking similarities. Annoy them and you'll get your pain fix real soon, be it flying dictionaries, roundhouse kicks or a pile driver. Stick with her long enough though, and she'll take care of you in every way a Big Sister presence could.
What made the similarities more apparent this time was putting Misae in a school uniform and unbound hair. It might also explains how she got the whole school to arrive on time with "just her word". After all, Kyou gathered a huge turnout to Kotomi's concert with "just her word".

Does the beginning scene of the episode (The girl and the robot) has anything to do with the series so far? I kept thinking back and I'm still clueless. Could it be that I missed something previously? >_<
<3 Tessa-chan! <3 Lucifus! ....chotto mate.
I was thinking about that too, it's a recurring side story that seems to have no connection with the show at all except that the little girl could be Nagisa when she was young.
From the first season we knew she was too weak to go to school, thus has been quite lonely I guess. That's the only connection I can make so far, and not a strong one.
Maybe she'd been in a coma sometimes, switching beetween reality and that world we get to see where she expressed her deep lonelyness.

Wasn't it the same story as the play they preformed at the end of the first season?
I always took it as an analogy between Nagisa and Tomoya. He's a broken doll that doesn't really think he can feel anything for anyone anymore due to the situation with his father, an Nagisa is the endlessly kind girl that can fix him as he grows closer to her. They accomplished a good deal of that last season, but I imagine the play only fit to Nagisa's singular storyline.
younger or older the girl in the illusionary world isn't nagisa; yes it is the same as the play nagisa performed in the last ep but to her its a memory from what she saw or remembered from her childhood as to the question if it has to do with the main story if you have seen Kanon and Air you can tell that most of Key's stories deal with supernatural and intertwining stories be it either illusions or dreams so if you put all those things the robot's been saying with what the girl has said too you can kinda figure that both stories might come together at a certain point....... uhmmm its late and i need to sleep so.....ill edit once i got more stuff in my brain
now to the ep it was an alright ep good to see the other character's stories and what made them be the way they are but it looks like this might be a 2 or just under 3 eps to fill her story not complaining seeing as misae is a side char with not much importance to the rest of the story but i wonder ....gah im tired if i remember ill edit otherwise its was a good ep thats all i wanna say

Well, i cant say i enjoyed that flashback. Also, wasnt this exact same story used before? Or am i remembering something from Kanon?
Anyway, WHAT i thought after this episode, though, is that Misae is the hottest girl of the show
yea it was used in kanon makoto the fox and this guy the cat then again it is a Key production so mby they're running out of ideas. It was an alright ep though my reaction would be different if some1 told me that my dog(or cat) spoke to them in a dream.....neways looks like they're moving to miyazawa's story. might be interesting
