True, I forgot about that since I paused their story line to play everyone elses first

Though I suppose if they hadn't pulled it out longer in the show than there would have been a lot of elements of the other stories that wouldn't have been pulled into the Anime
You think so? Idk..
The only characters arc that really pulled everyone together was Kotomi's arc, which they never pushed it anyways, so it wouldn't have changed much xD
Fuko and Nagisa's arc wrap together, Kyou and Ryou were wrapped in with Kotomi's arc, Sunohara and Tomoyo were a part of Nagisa's arc to begin with. Yukine may have had a little trouble wrapping in, but it wouldn't have been too hard if they tried

In fact, she was a part of Kotomi's arc as well, so that fits in there. Mei and Koumura-Sensei could be wrapped in at any point of the story without changing much.
Though, this anime was made what.. 7 years ago? Key was geniuses either way. They wrapped every character into the story somehow except for one character(Kappei) and he was even mentioned by Kyou(never by name though) in the after story. I'd have like Kappei to have had some part in the anime though. Ryou's story is just too depressing when it comes to Clannad. VN or Anime, it's still the same. Kappei being a part of it would have brought a little it of light to Ryou's story.
