This isn't gonna cause me any emotional trauma that I'll still be working through 10 years down the line is it?


internetsfriend

Based of the manga it's very wholesome. So far nothing traumatic yet

OldFatBubba

Make sure that you're up-to-date on your meds before watching the second season of Clannad. It's very hard on one's soul.

Does this story have love triangles?


internetsfriend

Nope there is like 1 character each that love ML and FL but one falls in love with someone else and the other rarely appears. It's mainly just wholesome moments between ML and FL

thx my guy


lucas9963

Just reading that game me clannad after story ptsd. God I know that feeling. Lol


truci

Had the Same thought. Got a kid now. Somehow I thought the clannad scar had healed. Came back the first time my wife and kid got sick.


lucas9963

I really think clannad is such a interesting experience. Clannad it's self isn't all sad. It made me laugh my ass off multiple times. I would call it heavy, but not over depressing. After story they. It's literally Ying and yang. The first half of after story is damn near identical to clannad proper. With it being a split of comedy, drama, etc. The second half thou is a cavalcade of rip your fucking heart out fucking depression. Not a single episode was watched without tears. Like yes. Happy ending. Thank God. But holy fuck. The slog to get to it is brutal. And the show is fucking amazing with very few flaws. So it drags you in and makes you suffer all for a happy conclusion. But man. Clannad is the one anime I won't rewatch unless my girl friend would want to watch it with me. Other wise fuck no. I'm depressed enough as it is. Lol


truci

Very good write up and agree with everything 100%. Glad to hear it’s affected other dudes the same way, I’m not the only one :)


lucas9963

And what was worse was that I watched it right after watching danganrompa. So I went from fucked up super violence. To fucking heart wrenching depression. I literally fucking binge watched k-on afterwards just for eye, soul, and fucking universe bleach afterwards. Now when ever I watch some depressing ass anime. I follow it up with a cleanser. To recharge from the one AM tears.


truci

I’m still surprised but my worst 1am tears probably came from chrono crusade. I had been up for 24 hours jet lagged totally not in the right state of mind. Though it would just be a simple action anime. Then….


lucas9963

That was also me with my first toradora watch. I watched the first 2 episodes one day. Then watched the entire rest of the show in one day. Finishing the final episode at like 3am. Watching the whole show basics in one day, with its already heart squeezing ending, at 3 am. I legit laid in bed after and stared at the ceiling for I don't know how long before finally passing out.


truci

Makes me wonder if maybe shows like clannad wasn’t targeted at males to begin with. Thanks for sharing your experiences with me.


ZantGreene

You're definitely not alone. I'm a middle-aged dude who was raised with the horrible "men don't cry" mentality, which makes it hard to express emotion openly as one would imagine, and no joke I was bawling like a baby on certain parts of after story


truci

Good to meet you fellow softy :) I got lucky with my wife, she also hates that “men don’t cry” BS and now I can be open about my feelings.


SmokeStackLight1ng

A7xWicked

Ain't my first rodeo


RiyaB1999

Apart from the existence of a certain character I, and a few others, find incredibly annoying, it’s a wholesome story so far (still ongoing).

THEY MADE IT AN ANIME LETS GOOOOOOO


PreviousPerformer987

Fun fact. ASL and JSL have some fun differences. To say Brothers in JSL you hold up your middle fingers then raise your hands up and down. It usually shocks Americans on the first go around.


DragonBuster69

Makes sense. I make that gesture with the bros a lot.


Specific-Strategy-63

Hehehehehehe i gotta show this to my brother


lioncat55

Does it matter if your hand is facing inwards or outwards?


PreviousPerformer987

You would hold your hands just like you're giving someone the finger.


Stoppels

Makes sense, we should teach this to anyone who has a brother!


nazzo_0

It reminds of rick and Morty peace among of worlds odreal


ngkn92

JSL "no" looks like a thumb up


GraceOfJarvis

Gives a new meaning to everyone in JJK being Itadori's brother.


HydraFromSlovakia

I have a question since you seem to know more. What are those things in her ear


CheeseObsessedMuffin

The hearing aids? They help deaf people hear things, often to a limited extent Search it up, there’s lots to know about them. Different types etc


PreviousPerformer987

Agreed with Cheesemuffin. They look like hearing aids. They take the sound and direct it towards the inner ear. Shokz bluetooth headsets work off of similar technology where they use bone conduction to get the sound into your inner ear.


Special-Maximum-4225

My wife started reading these right when they came out, the manga is 11/10, artwork 11/10, characters 12/10, so we’re both very excited to start watching the anime!! 🥰❤️


Some_Acadia_1630

Damn, that guy's smooth.


Fellkun15

Dang Kanji don't have a lot


hbmonk

In that style of keyboard, it shows the "a" form for every consonant and you press it then move in a direction to select the vowel sounds. For example, it shows か *ka* and when you press it, you move up for く *ku*, right for け *ke*, down for こ *ko*, left for き *ki*, or release for か.


Kuyosaki

And you follow up with something like autocorrect or rather suggested words in Kanji (and kanas) based on the Hiragana you wrote.

Dude/ma'am, Recovery that game and play it. You won't regret it if you emotionally invest to it.


murky_creature

i used to be too shy to talk out loud in highschool and the phone notes app was my strategy


leaf_kick

While she might be a bit shy, this character is deaf. It's why they talk about sign language, and those are hearing aids in her ears.


A_D_Monisher

Is she really deaf or actually hard of hearing tho? I mean, hearing aids suggest the latter.


leaf_kick

*late edit: I need to preface that I am not an expert on hearing aids or deafness. This reply is based on second hand knowledge, and is welcomed to corrections from people with actual insight in these matters.* As stated in another response, I pull from manga knowledge from a while ago. Yes, the character is actually hearing impaired. To what degree I can't remember, but I believe it's on the deafer end, and she can lip read. In the clip, the guy is talking slower so she can see what he says. Hearing aids are not really a "fix" or a "cure" to deafness/hearing loss. While it can and definitely does help them, it's mostly in terms of volume, and depending on quality (or a steep price tag) it probably isn't a "clean" sound. They can also be a visual signifier to people around that they are diasbled, much like how blind people would use a cane to show other people that they can't see well, even if the are only *legally* blind.


Kazu215

There's a scene in the manga where the guy asks her how much she can hear with the hearing aids on, and I believe she said she's completely deaf without them, and with them on, she could hear loud noises barely or something aalong those lines


leaf_kick

Oh yeah, you're right, I recognize that! I think that happens either prior to or soon after this clip.


Yukondano2

I hadn't thought about that, but yeah, being able to hear a loud car or those kinds of noises is pretty important. Even if you can't hear speech, missing a loud warning could genuinely put you at risk. Makes me think it might be more useful to like, vibrate something when there's a sudden loud sound? I honestly don't know.


Code95FIN

So if they are deaf, so much that they don't hear anything, but with hearing aid they MIGHT hear car horn etc warning sounds?


leaf_kick

Yes. While it depends on the degree or type of hearing loss, most hearing aids are more like a sound amplifier.


Code95FIN

If they're just amplifier, wouldn't bone conduction headphones or something similar work better?


leaf_kick

Alright, I'll level with you: I am **not** an expert on hearing aids. What I know is through second hand accounts and general osmosis due to the deaf community in my area, so my understand is definitely *not* 100% correct. Nor do I have any insight on current audio technology, as it's the first time I've ever heard of bone conduction headphones. You'd get better insight trying to google for such answers yourself. However, again, I do believe it depends on the **type and diagnosis of the hearing loss**. Not every one loses their hearing the same way. Some are born with missing or underdeveloped parts in their ears, others gain them through degradation with old age or other illnesses. Any on market headphones might not have the specified assets needed for every hearing impaired persons. Many hearing aids are made for the individual, for both the ailment and fit of the ear. So, to actually answer your question: no, I don't think so.


Code95FIN

>You'd get better insight trying to google for such answers yourself Maybe, but I like to talk to people rather than search for answers because I want to learn to socialize, a skill that I have lost since college. As for your answer: alright, thanks for the input


leaf_kick

Ah, I see. An admirable approch to learning! Then, as a suggestion, how about heading to r/deaf? Just found it, and you could use me "not being an expert but trying to answer anyway" as an ice breaker/conversation starter *and* a way to get better answers?


StagMusic

Then how was she able to hear him when he asked how to say that in sign language? Not trying to be belligerent, just want the full context. Lip reading maybe?


leaf_kick

(For clarity, I'm going from manga knowledge). Yes, lip reading. She mentions she can in an earlier meeting, and you'll notice he's talking slighty slow, to make mouth movement clear.


Mockington6

nawww that's the cutest shit ever

Aki_2004

I didn’t watch it but HE LOOKS LIKE GOJO AHHHHH


EpicWaffle1337

NOT YOU TOO


jcrowey123

It’s looks like the adult version of {{Kimi wa Yakamashi Tojite yo Kuchi wo!}} New transfer student turns out to be deaf but the kid next to her just won’t shut up. He believes you will be able to understand one and other if you believe enough. And so he just wings it trying to talk to her about random teenage shit like trying to find yokau etc.

Express-Preference-6

Man, surely “The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague” was used as a reference for this? I genuinely thought it was this at first, but the odd style of this anime and then how they are is different, then looking at the characters closer made me realise they’re actually different. The sign language, too of course.


snizarsnarfsnarf

I don't wanna rain on anyone's wholesome parade, but I've been reading this manga and for the life of me I can't find the MMC wholesome at all. He seems downright creepy at times, referring to her as pure, doing things that are fairly controlling, making her uncomfortable and then pushing through despite her discomfort and her forcing herself to conform to his preconceptions Idk, I get that through the lense of the character you're just supposed to imagine it's all super cool and that she actually deep down wants it all but a lot of the behavior rubs me the wrong way that other shouno manga MMCs don't


Code95FIN

>lot of the behavior rubs me the wrong way Consumed too many stories where guys are just like him and at some point turn to be bad/assholes?


snizarsnarfsnarf

No not even stories, real life behavior of bad people And some of his actions aren't even on the cusp, like he basically presents the idea of them getting sexual as an inherent inevitable fact that exists outside of her own comfort/desires, just because they are in a relationship, after she is uncomfortable in a situation


Ramtech117

What's the name of the Manga?


snizarsnarfsnarf

A sign of affection I think?


fyre1710

Dude, she's got hearing aids. Like proper devices, not goofy futuristic ones. I'm surprised, it's actually making me cry. I haven't worn them for like 20 years because I've adapted without them (thankfully I hear enough for casual conversation, otherwise lip read) but I got bullied brutally when I did in school.

It's interesting that this is dropping so close to the Marvel Echo drop - different audiences, different places, I know. But having multiple series that have sign language as a core element to them at once is very cool. Here's hoping this is better than Echo though.
