I think an ad hominem is the same thing as an insult. Look at me going full baka.
Aw, he doesn't know what an ad hominem is. I pity people like you.

Still need to watch Clannad. Even though i've pretty much had the whole series spoiled for me at this point, I still feel like I need to experience it.

You must watch it. Best anime of all time.


Debatable. Best anime of it's genre, maybe, but all time? No way in hell.
What beats it in these categories-

1. Animation quality (go watch Clannad Bluray)
2. Character development
3. Romance (One of the best, if not the best without any fanservice or anything above a kiss)
4. Emotional impact
5. Fitting soundtrack

Also, the story is a tad bit deeper than what people thought, nothing like Bakemonogatari (What I debated earlier) but it isn't shallow.


1. Fate/zero, Bakemonogatari
2. FMA Brotherhood
3. Clannad for sure.
4. One piece or Naruto shippuden. Hate to put the big three into any of these categories but I honestly can't think of anything else.
5. Don't know.
Bakemonogatari didn't have that great of quality, now if you mentioned Nisemonogatari, I might agree but even then, the characters don't move much.

Yep, have you once seen him reply to the videos I posted? Nope, he went straight into degrading me and changing up the quotes just to degrade me, as if somehow that would validate his point or invalidate mine.

I'm not in this argument. I'm not on either side.

It's not my fault that you're blind. Do you even know what good animation means? You talk about colour as if it were relevant.

That scene you showed me is not evidence of good animation. It just further proves my point.

4. Emotional impact As terrible as the original Fate/Stay Night anime was(in comparison to the visual novel), the ending theme that they played after every episode doesn't really make sense until you've finished it. When you have though it reaches dem feels harder than clannad did.
5. Fitting soundtrack

What about it wasn't enough for you? If my memory serves me correctly, isn't there only one fight scene in the entire series of Toradora? I just picked a random one to show you from Clannad, why are we even comparing fight scenes because the heart of the anime is mostly dialogue-like scenes with scenery in the backdrop (sort of like Bake/nisemonogatari).
So, break down that video I gave you and tell me why it is inferior to the one you linked, I would love to hear. Also, color would be quite relevant in almost every aspect of movies, anime, phones, computers, etc (It's a huge marketing aspect for a reason). Clannad makes the colors pop, unlike Toradora which is extremely bland.

Yet, I said Toradora had jumpy animation and the words didn't even fit properly with the mouth movements, especially when they're yelling.

Depends what the colour does

Personally I like a "cool" color palette

But that gets little in the way of how amazing an anime is

Bwhahahahha. You talk about everything expect animation.

Edit: Jet, I'm not talking about the style or the aesthetics. I'm talking about animation.

So, tell me, what would be relevant? Also, I would love to see you break down each one and show how Toradora is superior in that field of animation. It would make me most happy ;)

expect animation? Nice, you forget how to use your language properly? Oh well, unlike you I won't end it there.

Bodily movements=animation.

Frames per second. How smoothly a sequence happens.

There's one episode of Animatrx which is in a film noir setting.

It's called A Detective Story.

Actually let me tell you a bit about animation

Most Animes are at 28FPS or very very rarely 40+FPS, but whether one animation is better than another is actually more subjective

Some people like CGI, some people don't, sometimes people use a sort of stylized-like animation where frames jump erratically for added effect, this is intentional, or some try to be as realistic as possible, one way or the other, someone's gonna prefer one.

Frames per second? Oh, this is enjoyable. So, show me how Toradora has more frames per second than Clannad. If I'm not mistaken I already pointed out that the fight scene within Toradora literally jumped around. I've seen quite a few people actually complain about how much FPS and visual effects Clannad has in it (especially the motion picture).
