CLANNAD is a hugely popular romance adventure game that was released by Visual Arts/Key as a PC game in 2004 and has been ported to various platforms, including the PS2. The game was adapted into an anime in 2007, and the second season, the After Story, was also made into an anime the following year in 2008. It is still hugely popular 15 years after the game was released and over 10 years after the anime. The story was very heartwarming and moved everyone to tears, which became a hot topic. In this article, we will introduce Fujibayashi Anzu, who is very popular and plays an important role in the series.

The protagonist, Okazaki Tomoya, had given up sports due to an injury and was living as a delinquent, but one day he met Furukawa Nagisa, who was standing alone on the slope leading to school. This encounter would greatly add color to Okazaki Tomoya's gray life. The school life he spends with Nagisa is completely different from what it used to be, and the two of them overcome various difficulties to get closer and grow together in order to revive the drama club, which is Nagisa's wish.

Nagisa graduated a year late due to illness, and Okazaki works as an electrician where an acquaintance of his works.

Fujibayashi Kyou (CV: Hirohashi Ryo)

He is in the same class as the main character Okazaki, but in a different class. At first glance, he seems very serious, serving as class representative in his class, but he has a rather bad attitude, riding his bike to school despite it being forbidden, and is a bit of a delinquent who is regularly late and skips classes. He is very close to Okazaki and Haruhara, who are often shunned at school, and together with Anzu they are often treated as a trio. Although he does not have a good attitude, he is a very popular and kind person, making him a very charming character.
Fujibayashi Kyou's charm number 1: her beautiful looks

If we're talking simply about looks, she's extremely beautiful, and although she probably doesn't want that, she has a lot of fans (though they're all girls). The charm of Kyou is that she's so popular with girls that she receives an abundance of love letters from a large number of female fans. She also has a nice figure and a pretty nice body.
Fujibayashi Kyou's charm number 2: her friendly personality

She has a strong tomboyish side, and is closer to the slightly sloppy characters like Okazaki and Sunohara than to her female friends, and the three of them often hang out together. She talks bluntly and treats them as if they were the same sex, which is very refreshing to watch.
Fujibayashi An's charm number 3: All-around athlete

She has excellent motor skills, and can handle any sport to a certain degree. With her excellent motor skills, she sometimes uses lethal flying kicks on Sunohara and Okazaki, or throws dictionaries at them with incredible speed.
Fujibayashi An's charm #4: Caring
Source: CLANNAD
For the time being, she has a caring personality, and it suits her to say she's a big sister type. In some cases, she can just be a busybody, but even though she originally disliked Okazaki and the others, she still cared about them because she was the class president, and they ended up becoming friends. Even though she complained about Nagisa starting a drama club, she ended up helping him. However, this caring personality is a bit of a drawback, and since she always prioritizes others, she is unable to reveal her own feelings, which is also part of An's charm.
Fujibayashi An's charm number 5: She's good at cooking

She usually makes her own lunch, and even makes it for her sister. Given her usual rough image, you would assume that the food would taste terrible, but it turns out that the food is perfect. When Tomoya gets suspended from school, she makes him lunch and delivers it to him. This is another gap moe.
Fujibayashi An's charm number 6: Caring for her sister
Source: CLANNAD
She is very close with her twin sister Fujibayashi Ryo, and they basically always hang out together. Their personalities are polar opposites, with her sister being very serious and gentle, but timid and shy, so she easily gets into trouble, and whenever something happens, she rushes over to help. Sometimes she makes a mistake and ends up becoming a victim (lol). It's always Haruhara, Haruhara, and more Haruhara.
Fujibayashi An's charm #7: She's surprisingly cute too

When she was left alone with Okazaki in the gym storeroom by Miyazawa Yukine's magic (spell), she surprised viewers by blushing in her gym clothes and suddenly changing from the violent, strong woman she was. Thanks to that one miracle, Anzu became a very popular character, and viewers who saw the amazing gap moe were delighted. Well, she was popular to begin with, but I mean she became even more popular.
Fujibayashi Anzu's charm #8: Her timid side when it comes to love

An always supported Tomoya for her younger sister's sake, but in reality, she also liked Tomoya, and kept her feelings to herself for her sister's sake. But when she realized that Tomoya had feelings for Nagisa, not for her sister or for her, or rather, she had noticed but continued to pretend not to notice, and yet when the reality was shown in front of her eyes, the normally strong and cheerful An burst into tears. No matter how tough she tries to act, she also has a girly side to her, which is one of An's charms.
Fujibayashi Kyou's charm number 9: The dark side

This is not the main story, but one of the spinoffs, "Another World: Kyou's Story," which is an animated version of the Kyou route, but in that story Kyou is dark all the way to the end, and I was shocked to see that she has this side to her. Still, she manages to end it with a smile, so it was a happy ending. This episode is a must-see, so I hope you'll check it out in the anime or game.
Summary of Fujibayashi Kyou's charms!

So that was an introduction to the popular sub-heroine Fujibayashi Kyou. In the anime, it was the Nagisa route, so unfortunately she was in the position of the losing heroine, but she still had a great role in the story. Although she is a rough type, she is cute, cool, and even moe, and has many hidden sides, so I think she is a character that many people will like, so please check out the anime. Thank you for reading to the end.
