Tomoyo After ~It's a Wonderful Life~

[X207]

damn the manga really didnt end as i expected, i'll just pretend tomoya survived that ordeal. wat was the "good end" for the tomoyo after story?

[Klashikari]

This is basically the end of the PS2 version, where the epilogue is extended:

Spoiler:

There is a scene where Tomoya woke up after he fall in coma, as result of the surgery.
Tomoyo waited for him all this time, etc.

Either Tomoya is alive, or it is a big metaphor that they meet in afterlife or so (rather the first option

the manga sure do a fine job in wrapping tomoyo after in just 4 chapter bravo = ) ughh key why can you invoke my inner emotion with your story telling, dammit = ( but then i'm deeply pleased, i love torturing myself with sad story and end up depressed the whole day lol

the one dear shining memories had. a coma is condition that is serious enuff as it is imo.

[germanturkey]

i would prefer the ps2 ending, as it leaves it open to interpretation. having read the manga, i think its much more impactful to say

Spoiler:

that tomoya died, and tomoyo lived her life as she wanted afterwards, but in the afterlife, she was together with him because that's how committed she was.

it seems much sweeter and much more powerful that way.

[Proto]

Hmm... i all depends. If you don't believe in the after life it just seems like an empty delusion... something that makes it all the sadder, if that was possible

[Nerroth]

Speaking of the manga, has it been translated into English yet?

[Klashikari]

yes, it has been completely translated by anon.

use your google skills, it shouldnt be too hard to find.

[Nerroth]

Got it.


Very sad...


...but I still believe that Tomoyo's own story is only just beginning.


Or, at least, I hope that would be the case.

Am I the only one that likes the PS2 ending for the game?

I like PS2 ending because it reminds me a bit of the Fate/stay night PS2 game, the Last Episode one, with Shirou and Saber.

Again, I've uploaded the whole scanlated manga onto DDL and MU, pm me if you want a link.

The Tomoyo fanboyism within me wants to like PS2 ending, but the PC ending is just more impressive.

My problem with the PS2 ending is that it seems to pull a "lol j/k" on you and weaken the whole purpose of the original ending. If they were gonna end with a happy end like that I would've liked a bit more closure, but instead we get a very brief conclusion that feels very rushed.

I really like all the extra scenes added in the PS2 version however.

I've read the PS2 version is slightly different from the PC one. What are those differences (beside the lack of porn)? I've read they added new scenes but, are those new scenes just the replacement for the h-ones, or actual extra content?

Also, regarding the ending in the PS2 version: Do the players have to make any specific choices to get it (whilst still being able to get the sad/original ending), or was it simply the original ending but retconned? I've got another question, has Maeda had any word on the PS2's ending? Did he give any reason for the addition of a new ending? I'd assume that maybe fanboys complained and so they added a new ending but, I also remember that Air's and Planetarian's endings, so far, have remained unchanged.

Anyway, I liked this game. The feeling was similar to Clannad's After Story but, for some reason, it felt a bit more mature. The way Tomoya and Tomoyo grew together and built their own family was really nice. The way their feelings toward each other was portrayed was really beautiful, in my opinion.

Also, even if I do not like J-Pop myself, I ended up downloading "Light Colors;" strangely, that song appealed to me.

The PS2 version has extra scenes, which lead to happier endings I guess you would say.

With extra scenes you mean the one after the credits? Or are you telling me that in order to get that scene the player has to check some new scenes in the game and make specific choices?
