Clannad Episode 4

This episode starts more normally than the rest but… by the time it ended I had already given up on every guess I made this far…

First of all Nagisa didn’t get suspended, but she was told that since the theater club was closed down she can’t use any way of ‘publishing’ to attract new members. The only way to get new members for the club, and open it again, is to find people that are willing to participate in the club themselves.



Youhei, after spying on Tomoya and Nagisa talking, implies that the reason Tomoya got so involved with club activities is because he’s dating the girl. Of course Tomoya denies it, saying that Nagisa’s family run a bakery and since he is helping her out her mother lets him eat some of the really good special bread she makes (???!!) for free. And of course of the sake of the free-bread eating Youhei decides to tag along with Tomoya and Nagisa for their members-hunt.





They manage to get Kyou and Ryou… but not before Youhei actually tells Ryou that Nagisa wants to confess her love to her, ending up with a rather yuri scene between the two girls (because of the misunderstanding), a rather perverted Youhei and Tomoya and a very pissed of Kyou. But none the less the two girls agree to help but state that they need to get more members, if they want to revive the club.




They ask Tomoyo for help but she tells them she can’t make it, although she wouldn’t mind, because she has to prepare for the student council president election. (Could she be aiming for the spot? She is cool enough…) Tomoya asks Kotomi too, but I can’t really figure out if she will or won’t help since she wasn’t making any sense (as usual…). And the last one left to ask was Fuko-chan….

And this is where things start to go wrong with my theory. If you scratch the part where suddenly in this episode everyone seems to notice Nagisa when till the last one no one paid any attention to her there was still some hope in my theory of Nagisa being the ghost of the girl from the car accident. But apparently she isn’t…




Fuko had asked Tomoya to attend her sisters wedding. She told him that she used to be an art teacher in this school but since she left 3 years ago there were no students left in the school that knew her. She’d been making those stars and giving them out to people thinking that they would come to the wedding in return.


When Tomoya and Nagisa find her and ask her for help she tells them that she can’t make time for the club since she is always making her stars. When Tomoya points out that she must have some free time between school and home, she tells him that she doesn’t even go home. Ever since she almost got hit by a car, she woke up in school and had been there making the stars ever since.





That’s when Nagisa tells Tomoyo that she knew Fuko’s sister from before. Apparently the teacher’s sister got in a car accident and has been to the hospital the whole time. And that of course makes Fuko-chan the ghost of the school…

Well this episode was kind revealing. I just hope this series doesn’t turn out like Kanon, where everyone’s stories are revealed before the main characters… I won’t some more hints on Nagisa!!! That way I can build my guesses again…

*runs off to watch the first episodes again** I’ll get more clues!!!
