The Clannad Quiz

So Kyou, Ryou, and to some degree, Tomoyo got ripped off. At least one of my bold predictions came true:

I also watched the Clannad movie. Here are the key differences:
- Fuko doesn’t exist
- Ryou doesn’t exist. Oh wait, nothing changed.
- Kotomi is a voiceless character in a completely irrelevant role
- Kyou is Tomoyo’s lackey
- Fuko’s sister flogs Sunohara
- The animation sucks relative to the TV series
- The Dango song is slightly different but equally pedophilic
- No shitty overkilled bedpan jokes
- There’s a convincing explanation for why Nagisa wants to act
- The robot with feelings was replaced by a creepy puppet with feelings
- There’s a dramatic time skip (by far the most compelling reason to watch the movie)
- Dinosaurs!

@Geyyyyy: Never considered watching the anime (read the manga, though, as far as it went), but after your post I feel inclined to do so.
Also, I’m thinking of watching Clannad, as well. Now, if I only get to cram in those viewing sessions in my schedule…

[...] Because it’s a hell of a lot harder to pull off. An anime remake is like taking a test, receiving line-by-line feedback, and then getting paid twice as much to take the test again. You can’t win when you make an [...]
