my god....i wonder what kind of people work at KEY? they must live a depressing life!

ep 21 reminded me so much of Air and Kanon
Spoiler :
ushio not being able to do anything on her own: Makoto anyone?
Ushio forcing herself to walk: misuzu


u kno tomoya needs to be more decisive:
Spoiler :
he was given yet ANOTHER chance to call out nagisa. last time he didnt bad things happen. perhaps if he just called out to her, everything will be alright.

For the first time in a long time, I don't feel like watching anime.
Any reason why I shouldn't just an hero now?

Well, what do ya' know, this is the second to last episode! :o

Spoiler :
And OH GOD WHY?!!! Key has officially marks itself of being one of the most cruel storytellers in ripping one's heart repeatedly! USHIO!!!!! :cry:

Something supernatural is going to happen; I'm sure of it. That last bit in the episode seemed to go in full circle.

Despite having not seen the 21st episode yet, I'll have to agree from the copious and synonymous comments that this will end just like the first season, with extras added onto the actual ending.
Everything came from nothing, therefore everything is nothing.

I've been too absorbed by my new PS3 these past few weeks so I only got around to watching episode 18-21 this morning.
Spoiler :
I hope Ushio isn't dead for good... something like what happened when Nagisa was revived in Akio's arms. Remember the orb of light Tomoya got a while ago? It's gonna have some significance. Or maybe (I hope so) they do the games true end, remember the vision at the end of episode 21? Well, read the next spoiler if you want to know how the True Ending goes.


Spoiler :
There are two endings to the After Story; the first ending (more commonly known as the “Bad Ending”) must to be viewed first as a prerequisite in order to collect all the light orbs required to unlock the True Ending. If you manage to collect all 13 orbs, with the last one likely to be Akio’s, then the true ending becomes available. The true ending is the final culmination of Nagisa’s arc, and consummation of the Clannad game as a whole. Basic synopsis is as follows:

After Ushio is born, Nagisa is thought to have passed away; however Tomoya sees a vision* of Nagisa at the bottom of the hill where they first met. She humbly requests that he not regret having ever met her, despite all the painful events that ensued. Tomoya responds by acknowledging her request, stating that he shall stand tall and live on, proceeding to then ask her to climb the slope once again with him; Nagisa gives him a positive response, and the strength of the 13 light orbs converge. Nagisa wakes up and thanks Tomoya for never letting go of her hand the entire time; the true game credits then roll, with illustrations depicting Tomoya, Nagisa and Ushio living happily.

Text taken from http://espydon.wordpress.com/2008/02/28/clannad-after-story-synopsis/

It's almost like time turns back since in the game you have to finish the Bad End before you can view the True End.

I got doubt since 18th ep, but now I really think that:
Spoiler :
This little girl alone with the robot is Ushio alter-ego, in another world.
And I'll just hope Ushio will be saved as Nagisa was ...

And to further support my theory,

Spoiler :
In the Clannad game you have to collect 13 orbs of light (by completing the story arcs in the main story and After Story) to get the True ending, they appear as little white lights in the lower left corner of the title menu. And the same image used for the menu is used for the episode titles during the episodes (towards the beginning of each episode after the opening). At the start there were only 7 (which is the amount required to begin the After Story) but as the show continued the number increased. At episode 20 it reached 13 ,as well as on episode 21, though depending on which group subbed it the 13th may be covered by part of the english translation of the title, try checking the raw version. Basically this means Tomoya has gotten all 13 orbs of light and will now go through the True End.

Spoiler :
I'm 99% certain that there will be a supernatural ending where Nagisa and Ushio are revived (rather never died)

I still haven't watched episode 21 because of this. Tomorrow episode 22 comes out, no?

That's when I'll judge if I should have really waited.

It's pissing me off waiting to watch this, but if I end up watching it and ruining the series for myself I'll be even more pissed off.

Wait? Why wait? It doesn't ruin the series just leaves you in a state of depression while waiting for episode 22. I watched it though since I've beaten the game I was able to figure out how the anime will end.
