I just finished reading Tomoyo Dear Shining Memories, it was great. it's the same as Tomoyo Dearest, right? They are not two different managas.

to get tomoyo's light in the visual novel do you have to have koumura's light if so then doy you have to do most of tomoyo's route and then save befor you complete it, but if you do koumura's route can i do it out of order as in not the last third because i want to finish tomoyo's route not stop just before (i just want to confirm what the walkthrough say's)

Um... Tomoyo's light doesn't have any parallel requirements, IIRC. You do, however, have to do Tomoyo's route right after Misae's if you want Misae's light (or was it vice versa?). I'm not sure how best to manipulate saves to do this the quickest.

Koumura's light doesn't have anything to do with Tomoyo's light.

You need to do Misae's route first then during the festival part of Tomoyo's route you will pick up Misae's light then continue on with Tomoyo's route. I don't think there's a requirement for Tomoyo to be right after Misae, just Misae's route must be completed when you do Tomoyo's route.

I've never done testing on it myself, and guides tend to recommend doing them back-to-back so as to not "risk it". I'd love if someone could confirm/refute that requirement through personal experience/experimentation.

I haven't tested Misae's light, but I expect that you don't need to play her route back-to-back with Tomoyo; you can even play Tomoyo's route first, then play other routes, then play Misae's route, then play other routes, then go back to Tomoyo's route again to get Misae's light.

That's not a compulsory part of the game, but if you go back to that point after getting Koumura's light, you'll see something cool. Clannad has a few "easter eggs" like that.

Here's a list of easter eggs that I'm aware of:
  • Koumura's awesomeness (part of Tomoyo's awesomeness)
  • Jet ski in school
  • Sunohara's face getting deformed
  • Fuko Ninja
  • Laser tag + Baseball match
  • Zombie game book

I have no idea what these routes are supposed to mean but I think I'll just go through it until I can see Nagisa's route

You can see it from the beginning...

But to get to After Story, you have to do all of them.

I've been playing the Clannad game recently and a question came to my mind...

I just finished the Fujibayashi twins routes, (in the order listed in a walkthrough). It was intimate moment when Tomoya finally called Ryou by her first name and not by "Fujibayashi". But Tomoya calls Kyou by her first name all the time, what's the reason behind this?

Because it gets confusing if he calls both Fujibayashi.

Kyou asked him to call her Kyou so that there's no confusion.

THANK YOU!
Congratulations! That's my favourite route, after Nagisa+After Story.

I plan to get the graphics translated in-game eventually. If you subscribe to this thread, you'll be notified of improvements as they slowly roll out over the next several months.

awesome thanks, Kotomi's route is definitely one of my favorites. So aside from the suitcase the rest is the letter? I thought the bottom half was different since the top right picture says "dont grow up so fast". Isn't that the end of the letter?

Is the game licensed in the States?
From what I hear if it's not then it's legal to torrent it. Is that true?
Thanks

It's not licensed, but downloading it without buying it is still illegal. If you really want to play it, you can buy it from an import site.

xBTAx is right. Torrenting (and any other type of downloading) a game unpaid is legal only when the rights holder allows free distribution.

Even if we don't care about laws, I reckon the decent thing to do is to compensate someone for the hours, weeks, months, maybe years, they put into a game, if we play it.

If I'm not mistaken: If no American company has a license for the game, it just means that no American company is allowed to edit and sell it -- it doesn't mean that the game is unprotected in America (correct me if I'm wrong)
