Rebirth of the Father of Anime

"Momo, "clannad" shouldn't end like this..."

The anticipated "clannad" was not broadcast, and Xu Yiru did not have the confidence to speak. Today was also Qingming Festival, and she couldn't help but think of Nagisa and Xiao Xi. The clouds that had been brought to her heart in the past week were getting thicker and thicker, and her voice was trembling.

Could it be said that the last episode was the finale?

Could it be said that Nagisa and Xiaoxi left this world forever?

The more Xu Yiru thought about it, the more painful it became in her heart. Such a story is so cruel!

"Probably not..." Mo Mo held the remote control and changed the channel, as if trying to hypnotize himself, "Maybe it will be broadcast on other stations." But he had already scanned it twice. Judging from the past time, it had already passed. After half the time, she still didn't see the shadow of "clannad".

Although she said this, her voice became smaller and smaller.

Although she feels that "Clannad" should not have such a tragic and cruel ending in terms of style, the master's greatest characteristic is his versatility. He can create any style. He has painted many happy endings, and changed to sad and full ones. A regretful ending does not seem impossible.

It's just that this regret is so big that her little heart can't bear it.

"Xiao Xi... is so pitiful. Why treat her so cruelly? Master is such a cold-blooded animal!" Xu Yiru cried again, sentimental.

She hasn't seen the animation of "clannad" yet, and she cried just because it wasn't broadcast.

If it is not broadcast. That means...

The heavy cold enveloped them. Let them not even dare to think about it.

"Go and have a look! Go to the official Weibo of dmfun and Tianman. Maybe something happened and it was delayed!" Mo Mo said, as if talking to Xu Yiru, but also talking to himself.

Xu Yiru immediately took out her mobile phone, and Mo Mo ran to her bed and took the laptop over.

"There is no news on the homepage of the dmfun mobile app." Xu Yiru sounded very sad. Not finding any news was the biggest bad news.

As a fan who has made it a habit to keep up with updates, I don’t want to see news like “this xxx will stop updating for n days due to such and such reasons”.

It’s not just that the suspension of updates prevents them from seeing their favorite works as expected, which makes them feel a little disappointed.

Also because such a suspension means that there is something wrong with the work they like. No matter what the problem is, they don't want to see it. The story has ups and downs, but they like to be stable when watching the works they like. They prefer to watch it calmly all the time, and do not want any problems to occur midway.

But at this moment, they hope like never before that there will be a message on the official website that "due to xxx reasons, "clannad" will stop updating this week."

As long as they can see such news, it can give them some comfort and give them something to look forward to.

However, they did not see any news on the official website.

"There's no news on the website either." Mo Mo's hands lay weakly on the keyboard. The first thing she felt was that this ultra-thin notebook was so heavy that her legs hurt from the pressure.

No news. Their hearts felt empty, as if they had lost something very, very important.

Everything seemed to have ended on this day last week.

On that day with heavy snowfall, Xiao Xi closed her eyes forever in her father's arms.

"Go to Weibo and check it out!" Mo Mo gritted his teeth and quickly logged into Weibo.

She was still unwilling to accept such an unexpected ending.

Clicking on the official Weibo accounts of Porter and Tianman that she followed, there was still nothing about the "clannad" animation.

And countless fans who have the same idea as them have already exploded the news.

"Why wasn't Clannad aired?"

"Was that the end of Clannad last week?".

“If I haven’t seen the ‘finale’, I don’t believe it’s the ending! Return Clannad to me quickly! Otherwise, I’ll blow up Tianman!”

"Please say this is a pause for some reason, not the finale, please!"

"I know you all look down on my little money, but I want to say that "clannad" saved me, allowed me to find my life goal again, saved my family, and made me understand family and warmth! I I want to do my little bit for "clannad". I am willing to give out one million, not DM coins, but RMB. I just want to continue to update - I hope to give "clannad" a happy ending. This is what they deserve. of!"

But no matter how the fans requested, Tianman and Porter seemed not to notice and did not give any positive response.

The only news related to "clannad" is the release of the "clannad" game.

The sale time is on this day, Wednesday, Qingming Festival.

…

The "clannad" game is still released on all platforms, but the sales situation is a bit strange.

"Most people have a holiday during the Qingming Festival. Although it is a Wednesday, the sales situation can be compared with previous weekends. The sales volume of the physical game "clannad" is normal, and the growth is relatively gentle, neither high nor low." Luo Hao told He Chen talked about some problems with the game.

"However," Luo Hao changed the subject, "the number of paid downloads on the end is completely asymmetrical to the physical sales, and is very low. It's strange. I had someone check the website and found no problems, but the sales were too weird."

Luo Hao's words were full of doubts. The development of "clannad" took a very long time. As the director of research and development of "clannad", it has made another groundbreaking innovation. He is full of confidence in the game of "clannad".

However, it was obviously the same game and there was no difference in game content. However, the contrast between physical sales and paid downloads was too huge. This was what puzzled him the most.

"Does it mean that people now like to use special game consoles to play this kind of game?". Luo Hao muttered, if this is the case, they will have to make some changes in the development of the game mode after development.

"Don't you know good things should be collected?" He Chen didn't take it seriously. In fact, he was not satisfied with the sales volume.

For collection, appreciation, and education—this is the ultimate!

Is it good for everyone to play a game?

He Chen's ultimate goal is to sell a game three times the number of people playing it.

In addition, the physical game will also have some peripheral rewards, or some exquisite packaging and other things, which are of great collection value. Although He Chen was also surprised that the number of downloads was so low, he felt that it might be because the animation was so good that people had the idea to collect this classic as a physical game.

However, this time Luo Hao thought wrong, and so did He Chen.

Three days after the release of "clannad", Tianman received a large number of packages - this was only the first wave of packages sent by fans in Ping An City.

Because only Ping'an City can receive the ordered physical game within one day of the game's release, and then spend another day to send the game back to Tianman.

As for why they sent it back to Tianman...

"Something really happened this time!" A few days later, Luo Hao called He Chen again. "The physical games people buy are not for playing, they are for smashing! They bought them back, and then It was smashed into pieces and sent back to us! Now Tianman has specially set aside a warehouse to store the packages, and it is already full of our game fragments! It's a big deal!"

"I see."

He Chen already knew about this.

Before Tianman received the massive package filled with the deepest anger and silent protests of countless fans, He Chen had received countless photos of him from fans.

Fans carefully collected the peripherals and exquisite packaging that came with the "clannad" game, and then destroyed the game in a fancy way.

They destroyed the games in various postures, took photos or videos, posted them on Weibo, and then brought He Chen over. Needless to say, these dilapidated games represented their scarred lives. Heart.

This unprecedented silent protest was not organized by anyone. After countless fans felt He Chen's deepest "love", they also spontaneously let He Chen feel their deepest "love" .

However, although it was beyond He Chen's expectations, He Chen soon thought of another aspect.

"It's okay, it will be reversed soon. This behavior will only increase the sales of "clannad" to a higher level. Those who ruined it will eventually buy it back."

This is He Chen’s confidence in “clannad”, and also He Chen’s confidence in the “clannad” game developed with Tianman’s full efforts.

Maybe he can not only sell one copy of the game three times the number of people playing it, but he can also double that amount - maybe in the future, evaluation of classic games will have four uses: for collection , for viewing, teaching and protesting.

Why do people behave like this in Clannad games?

They are protesting.

Why are they protesting?

It's because the cruel and tragic story of the "clannad" animation made them feel heartbroken.

Why are they heartbroken?

Because they love Xiao Xi, love Nagisa, and love "clannad"!

As long as they love "clannad" and this story that has moved them countless times, then there is no need to worry about the sales of "clannad".

All we have to do is wait for the final story that will come soon. (To be continued...)
