Spoiler:

They changed the reason why Sunohara was no longer in the soccer club ever so slightly so that Sunohara was booted from the club for reasons beyond his control in the anime...however in the game itself it was due to his own doing so I couldn't take his anime "serious" scene seriously...if anything, it pissed me off.

Nope, as far as the anime goes, they only explained how he "quit" the soccer club.
In the game it was at first as vague as the anime goes, using the "quit" instead of what you know. They never explained how the brawl started so it is not altering the original material.

as a small trivia: they even used the "starfish heat attack!!" just like in the game (though it was used in another type of pinch XD)

Spoiler for Sunohara freaks OUT!:

"What are you doing in my room? It couldn't be.....building a love nest?"

Oh sunohara, how you never fail to amuse me, lol.

man, me too i was laughing so hard when i saw that

[Bankai29]

Waaaa...thnx to Kyou for saving her route and Tomoyo's route too...

Damn i want more Kyou/Tomoyo!!!!

>_<

[bladeofdarkness]

since watching the the pre view of this ep i was wondering what will kyoani do

Spoiler for the moment:

having played the game a little i knew that this ep would have nagisa giving up on the drama club
i also knew that in the game that was followd by the choice
either tomoya stands up and holds her while she crys and then confesses to her
or he doesnt
and watching this ep i was wondering what route kyoani would take
from a logical stand point this cant be the time for him to tell her he loves her (the show is only half way over)
from a character development stand point however its not possible for tomoya to just let her stand and cry alone giving how close they were portreyd in the show so far
unlike kanon where ayu and u1's relationship that seems abrapt
nagisa and tomoya from day one have been moving to this one moment
and i was waiting to see how kyo ani would do this
how to solve this dilema
how to have your cake and eat it to
and they did this in a very sudden and shocking way
was it the best resolt ? - i dont think so
but was it possible to do it any other way ?
was it possible to let nagisa and tomoya have their tender moment and not kill any way to tell the rest of the girls story's in any other way ?
not a chance

bravo to kyoani
great ep in every way
my favorite

[Bankai29]

Bravo also to the preview for ep16.

Will the girls really ask Tomoya those questions? Maybe Yukine has something to do with it?...

This episode was a stroke of pure genious. It seemed to cover everything that happens in the game before deviating into one of the respective arcs, so I have to applaud them for that.
The Tomoyo bit seemed to be a little out of place, but I suppose they do need to start developing her a bit before her arc. And it seems like it'll be even moreso next week.
The Kyou interuption of the Nagisa X Tomoya was a complete surprise. Ah well, guess she's just too jealous.
And, ah! It's Mei! I guess the Sunohara arc begins.

There is no way that I cannot give this episode a 10. I had a few disappointments from the start of the epiosde (No rediculously beautiful music arrangements like the start of Kotomi-chan), and from the fact that I spoiled myself accidentally while playing Fuuko's route in the game, but those are not reasons to downgrade it.

Now, to see if there are 3 or 4 light orbs next week.


Also, does it seem like the waits between episodes are getting longer and longer, and the episodes themselves are getting shorter and shorter? :'(

The image suggest something to me.

Spoiler for ???:

Spoiler:

Pretty nice ep though the thing with fuko is getting old

Sunohara getting more development is a good thing. I take back before what I said about him being a clown. Well he is still a clown but at least one with a personality

Tomoya is still the trickster that he is...I lawled when he told nagisa that sunohara loves him though it was fairly obvious that he was going to say that one of these days. Nagisa's reaction was unexpected though

Needs more tomoyo for one thing! and from the preview, it seems like the romance is just starting

[Khaos]

Great episode. After the Fuuko and the Kotomi arc were very straight suddenly the story unfolds and seems to cover more arcs simultaneously.

[Kinny Riddle]

Wow, they actually managed to stuffed all the little bits in without making me feel like I'm missing anything, almost every character, bar Akio and Sanae, gets some screentime today. Even Fuuko returned for her second cameo.

The story came very, very close to a "point of no return flag" for Nagisa's story. ("Flag" as in crucial choice, where once you score that flag, you're stuck in Nagisa's story and she'll be your girl for the rest of the journey. ) The way they got through that flag so subtly without effecting the overall story of the other girls was, just, "Bravo".

Yes, as exaggerated as it may sound, I'm using the word "Bravo" to describe this effort by Kyo-Ani. They've obviously learned a lot since what some perceive to be their disastrous handling of the pacing in Kanon.

Oh god, Sunohara must "love" Tomoya so much as to even harass him while he's taking a shit. LMAO

LOL, yeah, I noticed that as well.



For those who are keen enough to notice Tamura Yukari as Sunohara's sister Mei, here's some interesting trivia:

She and Kawakami Tomoko are now the only seiyuus to feature in all three of Kyo-Ani's KEY adaptation.

Tamura Yukari: Michiru (AIR), Kawasumi Mai (Kanon), Sunohara Mei (CLANNAD)
Kawakami Tomoko: Kamio Misuzu (AIR), Kurata Sayuri (Kanon), Girl in Illusionary World (CLANNAD)

[SirusRiddler]

The moment Nagisa and Mei met with their eyes, they suddenly realized a hidden connection between them.

Nagisa: Do you know Oyashiro-sama?
Mei: Yes, Hinamizawa.

Episode 15.5: When They Cry

Anyways...back on topic. xD I always loved Sakaguchi-san's performances. He really makes Sunohara so entertaining but also was excellent at pulling off his serious side. I'm looking forward to more shenanigans from that delinquent.

The fried antennas were the first things I noticed in that scene actually. :P

Episode 15.5: When They Cry

Ah, just wait till they meet Misae-san (Yukino Satsuki - AKA Mion and Shion).

[Ruhisu]

3 Things that destroyed me in this episode.

1. Fuuko apperiance with the Starfish Heat attack!
2. Sunohara's "Lets play basketball!" with the toilet scene
3. Okazaki's "He likes me, no! He love's me" - he sure know how to lie

Poor Sunohara, the moment when Nagisa was trying to protect Okazaki was just perfect!

Misae-san would then proceed to hold a batsu-game in which Tomoya loses and has to wear a humiliating costume. xD
