Actually, there's an uberspoiler in there (if it is indeed the scene I think it is), but you probably won't notice or understand it unless you're already aware of what it's spoiling. So, no harm done, I guess.

Upon fansubbing the CLANNAD Special Disc, I've found that the content is absolutely spoilerific and, unless you're familiar with CLANNAD, this stuff will be basically killer. Absolutely killer.
If you want to know how far I mean in terms of killer, refer to one of my previous... killer, spoilers.

I have some speculation on how the story will be re-written based on the preview disk: Spoiler:

Blar! I saw the 'teaser' from TWH/Sprocket, and oh man, I feel like I have ruined the entire movie/series for me. Sure nothing was said blatantly, but connecting the dots have ruined I think one the most important scenes in the game.
So for anyone uninitiated on CLANNAD, avoid the movie teaser like the plague!

Well, maybe the movie has something else planned. Either way it was a powerful experience. Better than Air Prelude. Spoiler for Speculation from Special Disk:

orion: Too bad I can't answer any more of your questions regarding that, without spoiling any more.
Let's just say that, whatever path TOEI takes for the movie, the ending will likely be close to KyoAni's rendition. But... Spoiler:

I was going to type up the answers, but then I agree with velocity7, anymore spoilers would just be too much, and just describing the story is also not going to help, as Key's work is always about atmosphere and execution anyway.

But I really wasn't asking for spoilers and I really don't want any. It's all speculation at this point. Dezaki can choose to do whatever he wants within reason with the material presented to him for use. It's his interpretation of the source material after all and a commercially viable story/ending will be done imo. It's practical business sense.

You haven't ruined anything. Thank you for your hard work. The Chinese subs came out beforehand with no one getting upset over spoilers. Loads of people in Japan bought this and no one complained loud enough to get media attention. In fact, from what I could tell, it sold out.
Similar situation happened in Air Prelude and we survived. By the time you saw those Air TV CMs and Prelude you pretty much had an ideal who Misuzu was. No worries about spoilers from those things being translated. In fact, this special disk had similar style of animation for the teaser. B & W grainy filters with lens flares and interspersed text. Take a look at my Kanon avatar. It's taken from Kanon Prelude. Yep. It had spoilers in it too. No screams from that one either. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done.

I'm not worried though and thanks for caring. I'll find out when the movie gets released. It's all fun speculation as far as I'm concerned. No one has a copy of the script so game related or manga related spoilers may or may not be relevant to the movie.
Images used in the teaser can mean almost anything that the director wants the audience to think to draw you in and then he can totally give you a 180 degree turn in the theater. He probably has to give a fresh interpretation imo since Clannad in theory should have had a wider penetration since it wasn't an eroge title. There is no real incentive to go to the theater if the outcome is assured and a TV series is broadcasting in the same year imo. My Kanon avi is a good example of this. That scene was not in the TV series at all except the OP. Mental exercises are good for the soul imo.

Better safe than sorry, IMO. There's people (like me) who wishes that they can unwatch the teaser, and as such am glad TWH/Sprocket is addressing the issue (though IMO a second version is in order, even if all whats changed was the title to indicate there's spoilers, because theres a lot of people dls the torrent directly and never see the scarywater page, ex. tokyotosho).
As for the no outcry in Japan, you just said the root of it all. The disk was sold out; in other words, its really popular. Otakus being otakus, what percentage of the people who bought the disk do you think have played the game before? Chances are, its close to 100%. As such, them seeing the teaser spoils nothing at all! As for the analogy to Kanon/Air... Spoiler for for Kanon end and teaser of Clannad only, nothing more, nothing less, I promise:
And for the record, I'm not mad at all with Clannad being spoiled some for me, as I'm not the kind of person who cries over spilled milk. It's just I'm just a tad bit miffed when people try to underscore the spoiler factor of some things, because this might convince people that its actually alright to see it thinking they're safe. I still stand by what I said before... Avoid the teaser like the plague if one doesn't want to get spoiled!

Ok, i watched the teaser (ignoring all warnings ), and i have to say - if that is not first class spoiler material, i don't know what is 0_o. You don't need to connect any dots in there if you want to get spoiled... you would have to be blind in the first place not to get spoiled by this
Since i dived in knowing that it is a spoiler, i am not going to cry about it, i will just quote DragoonKain3: Quote:
