6About CLANNAD
Story. After the death of his mother, Tomoya Okazaki—a guarded delinquent student at Hikarizaka High School—struggles to not only make sense of the abusive relationship he has with his alcoholic father, but also find meaning in his life. While on his way to class one morning, he meets a mystifying girl named Nagisa. She is a delinquent like him, but only because she is repeating her senior year, unlike the perpetually tardy Okazaki. From their brief encounter, Nagisa decides they should be friends, and enlists Tomoya's help to revive the school drama club. Not being busy in any way, he decides to join in. Along the way, the two make friends with many other students and try to find both solace and belonging in their endeavors.New Features.

Better than expected
This game is perfect, but it has a really annoying bug in which the screen gets super blurry and my face gets all wet suddenly, hopefully it gets fixed sometime.

When I first looked at this game, I thought "Typical anime high school girl nonsense"
When I first looked at this game, I thought "Typical anime high school girl nonsense". How wrong I was. What I found was far and away the most engaging and heartfelt story I have ever experienced. I absolutely love Clannad and cannot recommend it highly enough. Clannad is a visual novel originally released in Japan in 2004. Voices were added in a 2008 rerelease. In 2015 it was given an official English release. It is regarded by the visual novel community as a paragon of the genre and one of the greatest ever. Clannad has several different plotlines which can be read in almost any order. These plotlines are mostly love stories. The content and quality of these are what make Clannad a legend. Rather than pander to sexual fantasies, Clannad's stories aim straight at the reader's heart. Some of these hit really close to home for me. At multiple points, I had to stop reading for a few minutes to collect myself before I could continue. Some were so good that I had to go back and reread them again just a couple of days later. If you complete Clannad, you will cry at least once. Accept this going in. If someone tells you they completed it without crying, they're a liar. If you're still on the fence, then consider that I was once in your position. I was unsure of if I should even give this game a shot. I took the chance based on word of mouth. Now here I am gushing over it. One of the best works of fiction I have ever experienced.
