The staff and cast will remain the same as the first series. :: ABOUT CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~ :: Start Date: Probably Fall 2008 (October) Number of Episodes: Probably 12-13 Director Ishihara Tatsuya said in an interview that they weren't planning to come out with a second season at first, but after much discussions they decided to make it and give CLANNAD the proper treatment it deserves. :: PROMO :: Doh! You either have javascript turned off or an old version of adobe's flash player. get the latest flash player :: FAQ :: What is After Story? The CLANNAD visual novel is made up of 2 story arcs: the School Life arc and the After Story arc. The events that happened in first season of the TV series are based on the School Life arc. The After Story arc on the other hand takes place 10 years later, and the main focus of the story will be on the future lives of Tomoya and Nagisa. This arc will serve as a basis for the anime's second season. Fans of the visual novel have commented that the true essence of CLANNAD lies in its second arc. They said the School Life arc is like a prologue to a much deeper and emotional journey that is the After Story. Will we learn more about the Illusionary World in CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~? Definitely! TV series vs. Movie Toei (Kanon 2002, AIR Movie) made the CLANNAD Movie, and Kyoto Animation/KyoAni (Kanon 2006, AIR TV) made the CLANNAD TV series. Toei tends to alter the original stories of the visual novels for their version of the anime, while KyoAni prefers staying true to them. And although both Toei's and KyoAni's endings for Kanon and AIR are similar, there's a chance that CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~'s ending won't be the same as the movie's. I believe that there is more than one ending to the After Story arc in the visual novel, and KyoAni will choose to go with whichever ending that is more heartbreaking (highly probable!). There's no way it can be sadder than the movie's ending, you say? Oh yes it can... My advice is: forget what you saw in the CLANNAD movie (it won't be easy, I know) and watch CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~ with an open mind when it comes out. If you haven't seen the movie, good for you! Wait until you've finished watching the second season of the TV series before doing so. :: WARNING :: For those of you who don't want to be spoiled with information about what's going to happen in After Story: don't click on any of the spoiler tags in this thread. Do what I do and avoid them as if they were Sanae-san's breads! :: SOURCE :: [Moon Phase] http://d.hatena.ne.jp/moonphase/20080327#p1 [ANN] http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-03-27/clannad-after-story-tv-sequel-to-be-announced |
