How tragic! Death took Nagisa so easily, why did he take Shio! When Nagisa passed away, I didn't cry. However, Tomoya cried a few times when he recalled Nagisa, and I did not live up to the expectations. However, when Shio's little hand dipped weakly in Tomoya's arms, it was really going to make people collapse. That ending is more sad than Guanling's death in Haruko's arms, because Guanling at least worked hard to finish her life, but the young Shio closed his eyes forever at the beginning of life and happiness, I admit, My pain had escalated a little to anger by then.
If this anger is not aimed at the screenwriter, but at the gods in the play, it is aimed at myself who chose to watch this animation.
Fortunately, at least in terms of making me feel better, the animation isn't over yet. Like Kanon, the last episode (not counting the extras and the series) is a big turnaround. Shio presses the Reset button in another world, and Tomoya gets a chance to re-select his life. However, the difference is that this time the choice is not about the journey after the choice, but the unrepentant determination at the time of the choice. In the end, Pengya overcomes himself and believes in his own choice, so his fate is rewritten, because Pengya's desire and determination for happiness, under the blessing of the happiness of the whole town, a miracle is born in the snowy night.
Speaking of which, snow is really a wonderful thing. Clannad's snowy night becomes the turning point of fate, and the miracle story that runs through Kanon is based on the town of Winter Snow. Perhaps, it is precisely because I like the mystery of snow in anime works that I came to the north where snow falls.
However, because of the feeling of being far away from home, I have become more and more aware of the themes that run through Clannad - family, family, hometown, small town, relatives... Although there are supernatural events in Fengzi, although there are incredible miracles in the end, the overall Speaking of, Clannad is indeed the most unpretentious, so sometimes I feel that the plot is too ordinary, and it is difficult to produce the strong shock at the time. Can't bear to think about it. The works worthy of tasting are indeed great, and the true feelings are often hidden in the ordinary facts. The Japanese are constantly emphasizing and promoting the concept of family and family in more and more works, which always touches me very much (so when I read "Summer Wars", the suicide note directly made me cry). It is not easy to clearly understand when we are in the party concerned, but when we look back on the past, or experience it from the outside through the stories of a third party, we will find that family love is indeed incredibly great. Through the continuous promotion of works, I believe that even animation can become a force to inspire the society. Animation to achieve this step is indeed not inferior to culture and education.
Qiusheng gave Tomoya two bats, the first one, entrusting his daughter to Tomoya; the second one, entrusting his granddaughter and daughter's hope to Tomoya. These two bats are meaningful, as a father and grandfather's hope for a son-in-law: show your courage and confidence, and let them be happy!
The night that Shio was delivered, Sanae fell into Qiusheng's arms and cried bitterly: she had fulfilled the greatest wish of a mother and grandmother.
I am grateful that the ending of the animation has rewritten an unreasonable tragedy and rounded up a family that should have been happy.
As I said, I still like happy endings.
We all want to have a happy family.
