aWomen are being urged to model themselves after the heroines of blockbuster visual novel Clannad if they wish to become a man’s ideal woman.
From “Menjoy“:
Amongst bishoujo games, one is known as one of the most godly – Clannad. In fact, it is even said that “Clannad is life.”
[…]
So, why are we going on about Clannad? Well, that’s because we’ve noticed that the reason Clannad is so popular is because of the popularity of its characters with men, or in other words that they have succeeded in conquering the male heart.
Clannad’s main heroine Nagisa Furukawa can illustrate just how this is possible:
Become a woman he wants to protect!
Try adopting strange speech patterns!
Take up odd hobbies and have inexplicable interests!
Develop an ahoge!
Try developing a modest, lovable and dedicated personality!?
In this brief introduction it should hopefully be apparent what an outstanding title Clannad is, up there with the most heart-rending movies and books. It may seem pretty otaku-ish but it’s well worth experiencing if you can just get past that.
You may even hear some of the Clannad heroines using useful phrases and behaviour which you can make use of yourself…
The online response is sceptical to say the least:
“Wait, wasn’t Clannad an eroge?”
“It is life.”
“Just spread your legs. We already knew that.”
“If I met a 3D woman like the ones in Clannad I’d knock her lights out.”
“This is what otaku seek in a woman, not what men seek.”
“It’s an eroge.”
“The people who keep going on about calling Clannad an eroge are seriously annoying.”
“Learning from bishoujo games is all very well – but do remember it is all based on the premise that you are a bishoujo.”
“I cried whilst onanising over this. Clannad truly is life.”

You deserve all praise this universe has to offer. Thank you.
tru dat
Princess Crepe.
Women should model themselves after Saya no Uta...
Long-distance relationship is the best way to go for that one...
A distance of half the universe and many aeons...
Star Treck made it happen, didn't it?
Well, they look 2D on skype and you can turn them off (and blame your internet). Sounds close to me.
Eldritch abominations are kawaii!
Truth
To hear it told by some on this sight we already do! ;)
Come to think of it I'm hungry.
Perfect timing. Our fridge and its freezer compartment are both full.
Care to have some of our meat while it's fresh?
lot of people wanna eat u instead...
Now that'd be, "out of this world!".
Now if only they could grow tentacles with which to tentacle rape your female friends and make into your slaves...
Hm that wouldnt be so bad.. since i didnt need much cooking skills... *polish his knife* But maybe a bigger fridge.
more like on School Days
@ Anon 03:35:
You have to accept that 99% of all women are crazy. That sensible female friend you had in school is the exception which proves the rule.
So, the trick is to find a woman whose particular form of craziness is something you can deal with.
School Days' Kotonoha would be fine, just as long as you never cheated on her.
If we're talking about Clannad, then I'd like someone like Kyou or Tomoyo -- you know, someone with a definite personality who gets out there and does things.
FUCK THAT LOSER! AFTER MENMA!
It just proves girls have become more manly, with a comment like this;
“If I met a 3D woman like the ones in Clannad I’d knock her lights out.”
Nagisa-san, has a special place in every man heart, because she is what you expect to be girly, while being cute and adorable in every way, sickness or healthy, she shine more than any woman than that 3D pig comment such as that.
Every man's heart?
FUCK NO. Speak for yourself. She was annoying as fuck.
Another hot tip. Be 2D.
pretty much this
It takes a lot of practice, but it can be done. Saw title,made happy face.
Or going by Key tropes:
Be sure to have a crippling ailment that leads directly to imminent death... or be dead to begin with.
i stay with maiwaifu manaka :3
I dunno if we really should be encouraging girls to viciously kick people and throw Japanese-English dictionaries at people's heads...
Or play horrible violin.
Or walk up to random strangers and give them wooden starfish.
“I cried whilst onanising over this. Clannad truly is life.”
Oh the wit. lol
"Wit beyond measure is man's best treasure."
Indeed.
Ew... How sad.
I wish people would stop calling Clannad an eroge.
No erotic content = Not an eroge.
It's a galge.
Whats a Galge?
Galge = Girl Game
The people calling Clannad an eroge game are really stupid...
I think they are mostly confused by the fact that most other Key games have been eroge. Kanon and Air were both eroge (although they had clean versions as well), and although the original Little Busters! was clean, the Ecstasy expansion added H scenes (which were removed again for the PS2/PSP port). Tomoyo After was also an eroge, so many people may simply have assumed Clannad was an eroge, too.
The irony is that, at least in my opinion (and I know others who share it), the H scenes in Key games always seem awkward (almost as if they'd been shoehorned in as an afterthought), and the experience not only suffers nothing by their omission, but actually benefits thereby.
Well Tomoyo After is eroge :D
That doesn't count.
tomoyo after is eroge, clannad is just a galge.
at least learn to know the difference.
don't know that should be counted or not
Its not about begin an eroge! Its about seeing beyond it!
stupid people saying that its an eroge: have you read it? before being judgmental, finish the novel first.
oh wait, i forgot, stupidity has no cure
it is an eroge, just whether your penis accepts it or not is your problem ^_^
All I ask for is for them to learn from tomoyo <3
I second Tomoyo. Indeed.
I would go for Kyou actually
Tomoyo ftw. She is so much better than the other Clannad girls.
HERE HERE!
i don't think clannad was an eroge
i think those ppl just got a biased opinion on visual novels, dats my opinion
It's not an opinion that Clannad isn't an eroge, it's a fact.
“Wait, wasn’t Clannad an eroge?”
No, the Tomoyo After spin off was.
And we love her for it.
eroge = erotic game.
Eroges have H-scenes, galges don't.
and yeah people calling galges as dating sims are annoying too.
To be clear: Clannad - unlike Kanon and Air, but like the original version of Little Busters - did NOT have H scenes. Tomoyo After had H scenes, but Clannad itself did not.
The Japanese gamers are actually less sticklers about this label than western gamers are..
A lot of Japanese otaku just spout out 'galge' and 'eroge' describing these games. Some still use it a ridicule, but some just use it as an umbrella term.
I played it for the plot, not for the eroge.
Now you know how I feel about Qwaser.
clannad wasn't an eroge, an eroge needs to have sex. clannad was just a galge, bishoujo game, visual novel, w/e u wanna call it
There is an eroge sequal with one of the heroines but that isn't clannad itself
just because it had a story that moved lonely peoples hearts doesn't disqualify it from being an eroge
Yes, it does, eroge means "erotic game" ga pronounced the American way of course.
The total lack of erotic content would seem to disqualify it.
it is a NOVEL. with VISUALS in it... and VOICES as well
so... what does this apply to then?
SoundGraphic Novels?
