(Since I'm replying, I might as well re-post the whole thing.)

Damn it, I didn't expect they would announce it this soon. I guess now that Kanon is over, they think it's a good timing to give the fans something to look forward to. But man, didn't I say it that KyoAni would make CLANNAD TV after the movie?

Not exactly. Even though the story does spam over many years, the later years fly by. The main story still focues on the Spring, that's why CLANNAD is put as Spring of Key's "four seasons".

Aww, Iriya.

Have to say that.

ONE already has two OVA series, a hentai and a non-hentai one. I highly, highly doubt it will be animated again into a TV series.

If AIR could be crammed into 13 episodes, then CLANNAD can be crammed into 24 episodes too. Who knows.

Wait, both a movie and a TV season at the same time?

Movie is going to be in cinema on 9/15. I expect TV series to start airing in either Winter or Spring (i.e. 08's January or April).
