Top 10 Best Clannad Characters
-
Tomoya Okazaki
Tomoya Okazaki (岡崎朋也, Okazaki Tomoya) is the main protagonist of the Clannad visual novel and anime series. He has a reputation as a delinquent due to frequently arriving late to school, skipping classes, and staying out all night. Despite this, he is introspective and often contemplates the meaning... read more
He's flawed, but at the same time, he's a very deep and kindhearted person. An aching soul who genuinely cares for others. And I love how that's all combined with his sarcastic humor and mildly apathetic personality. He's just great. I could write something longer, like a character analysis, but I think it's great how you follow him through the whole series and watch him develop. He's also very charming and handsome. I can see why the girls in Clannad fancy him.
For a self-confessed juvenile delinquent, he's far from that or the mean guy he keeps telling his daughter he is. He has a lot going for him!

Nagisa Furukawa
I actually like her design and the art style in general though the noses are a little far up. Nice contrasty shading. I want to hug byoukidere characters! There should be a Dollfie Dream doll of her, especially if it keeps the eyes large. It seems to be the trend these days in anime style changes to make the eyes smaller.
SPOILER WARNING! Please look away if you don't want spoilers!
(Ok spoiler will start very soon. Just taking attention off said spoiler. It was sad that she got pregnant, as it's probably the worst thing for her body. Not only does it weaken the immune system and loosen the joints, it requires a lot of healing from the strain on the body and the tearing. With iron and blood loss during and after birth, it can change the body and give new allergies. Morning sickness (not just morning actually) can make it hard to get proper nutrition. Heavy periods can cause anemia too.)

Kyou Fujibayashi
Kyou Fujibayashi (Japanese: 藤林杏, Fujibayashi Kyō) is one of the main protagonists of the anime and visual novel series Clannad, developed by Key. She is a close friend of Tomoya Okazaki and the older twin sister of Ryou Fujibayashi, with whom Kyou is in the same year.... read more
Kyou was very well-written. She is probably one of the characters with a huge amount of development over the series. I could relate to her very well.
Though it was clear from the very beginning that Nagisa is the main heroine of the story, the part where Kyou's heart is broken still made me cry. I am sure this isn't something everybody, or as a matter of fact, anybody would've felt. But I did, as I extremely like her. She will always remain the best Clannad character for me.
Easily best girl. She is intelligent, incredibly kind, and hilarious. She is perfect for Tomoya, and he is lucky to have her. She knows how to get things done, and she does them well. On top of all that, she is also a great cook. Best girl!

Youhei Sunohara
It was really difficult to choose, but I wanted to show Sunohara some love. He's the comic relief character, and he really brightened up the show. What I loved about him, though, was all the character development that we saw in After Story, especially with Mei and everything. He also always stayed a really loyal friend to Tomoya. Their friendship is so touching because even after beating the crap out of each other, they just laugh again.
He is a great and underrated character. He provides comic relief, and sometimes his words are deep and mature. I would not have watched the series if he were not there. Best character for me.
-
Kotomi Ichinose
Aw, Kotomi has everything. She's funny, smart, and cute. Love her. She might not be the main character, but Kotomi makes the show what it is. She's just beautiful!
Intelligent airhead is adorable, and with her backstory, all you can do is want to make her happy. Just might pull all the weeds out of her front yard.
Of all the characters who disappear after what happens to Nagisa, she's the one I miss the most.
-
Tomoyo Sakagami
She's one of those characters that seem like tsunderes (tsunderes, to put it shortly, are characters that seem hard and insensitive on the outside, but once warmed up, are finally caring), but in all terms, she's just about as caring, but stronger, than Nagisa. Even though she's not the spotlight of the series, Tomoyo can prove that she doesn't need protection from anyone else and that all girls can be independent, unlike Nagisa.
Tomoyo is a very ambitious character who will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. Even though she has superhuman strength, she is always striving to become a better person and improve a different type of strength. Her love for Tomoya is unmatched, and her visual novel "Tomoyo After" does wonders for her character development.
-
Akio Furukawa
Akio is one of my favorite characters, period. He's funny when he wants to be, and he can also be very serious. He's a master at loving his family and knows how to make the most of every moment in life. Or he's just the best actor there ever was.

Ushio Okazaki
She is definitely the best character in this show. I love Ushio. Until episode 18 (the famous episode in After Story that takes place in the field of flowers), I had never cried once during the anime, not even when Nagisa died, surprisingly. Although I did feel an extreme surge of pure sadness when this event occurred. Ushio is pure-hearted, strong, innocent, and one of the most important characters in Clannad: After Story.
Let's not forget she's the most adorable one too! On a side note, another reason I like her so much is that she looks exactly like Nagisa. I don't know why, but that makes me so happy.
WHY IS USHIO OKAZAKI 10TH?
Ushio is a sweet girl who never really knew her mother. She is kind and cute to everyone and was never mad at her dad for leaving her. She was lonely, and she made me cry in so many scenes. She cared for all the other characters.
Ushio is so cute. She is exactly like a younger Nagisa but sometimes has her dad's happy attitude.
When Ushio got sick, she didn't deserve it. She was an innocent 5-year-old girl who was slowly dying, but all she wanted to do was stay with her daddy.
When Ushio died, I cried and cried and cried and. You get the point. She made such an impact on the anime. This is why I love Ushio.

Sanae Furukawa
She makes me laugh, especially with Akio when she runs out of the shop crying.
"Watashi no pan wa... watashi no pan wa..."
Still kills me to this day with laughter. God, I love Nagisa's parents so much.
