Anime Summary / Synopsis:
Clannad is an Irish term for
“clan” or “family.”
The value of family is an important theme in the story of
Clannad. Tomoya Okazaki is the main male protagonist of
Clannad. His mother died in a car accident years ago and as a
result his dad fell into gambling and alcoholism. After a
fight with his dad where he was injured, the father and son have grown
distant from each other ever since. Tomoya is labelled as a
delinquent at his school because he is constantly late and skips
classes, but he seems to have little care about how others perceive of
him.
Everything in his life seemed dull and unchanging
until one morning he meets Nagisa Furukawa, a female student, on the
road to his school. Nagisa was muttering to herself to give
her more motivation for the day. She has an odd habit of
saying the names of foods she is going to eat to encourage
himself. Nagisa had been sick for almost a year last year and
subsequently has to repeat her third year of school. But now
all her friends have graduated and she feels alone. For some
reason, after hearing Nagisa talking to herself, Tomoya becomes
interested and befriends her.
