Question

Is clannad a good anime series to watch?

Answer 1

In my opinion, it's worth watching.

Great animation and music, lots of comedy (imo, more than Kanon and Air), and some drama/sadness.  Clannad TV is a 9/10 for me, the Clannad movie is a 6/10.

It's similar to Air TV and Clannad TV, so if you've seen those and liked them, you should watch Clannad.

-- Why you should watch Kanon 2006 and Clannad TV if you liked Air TV:

Air, Clannad, and Kanon were originally visual novels produced by Key. Air TV, Clannad TV, and Kanon 2006 (2006 because there's a 2002 version of Kanon), are animated by Kyoto Animation. The Air movie, Clannad movie, and Kanon 2002 are animated by Toei, and in my opinion, KyoAni's versions are better, better animation, funnier or sadder. Basically Clannad TV and Kanon 2006 were made by the same people.
