Tomoya Okazaki quotes from Clannad: After Story

Tomoya

I'm going to marry Nagisa. We registered our marriage without a ceremony. Nagisa Okazaki. It's funny. But somehow it makes me happy just to hear that.

Tomoya Okazaki

That's right. It all started when I spoke to her that day. Maybe I shouldn't have said anything. If she hadn't met me, then she wouldn't...

Kyou Fujibayashi

You kidding? Of course I'll play with you guys!

Nagisa Furukawa

If we have you on our team Kyou, there's no way we can lose!

Youhei Sunohara

I gotta admit Nagisa, your dad must have a pretty keen eye for talent if he's scouting the great Youhei Sunohara!

Tomoya Okazaki

Yeah, apparently he sensed your amazing athletic abilities with his psychic powers?

Youhei

What can I say? I talent like mine can't help but shine. Even if I try to live a normal life.

Tomoya

[To himself] Well, that didn't take much. Good thing he's so gullible.

Youhei

Say what now?!

Tomoya

I'm just kidding! You're an incredible genius, an incredible athlete, incredibly thin providing incredible protection, even at night!

Youhei

You called it!

Tomoya, do you think I could play baseball with you too?

Tomoya

Uh, do you know the rules, Kotomi?

Kotomi

I think I have a pretty good idea, since I watched you and Tomoyo played against the school team. I've wanted to give it a try ever since.

Youhei

You saw that...?

Kyou

What about you, Ryou? Are you gonna play?

Ryou Fujibayashi

Um, I'll just cheer from the sidelines. Sports aren't exactly my strong point.

Then I guess that makes two people cheering for you! You can't let us down! Okay, Tomoya?

Kyou

[Eying Nagisa and Tomoya] Hm?

Tomoya

What is it now?

Kyou

Oh, it's nothing. Just cute to see you two acting like a couple.

[Embarrassed] Oh, you think so?

It's not like you to call on me like this. Is there something wrong?

Tomoya

Sunohara told me he wants to get nasty with you in public. [Tomoyo kicks Youhei, which causes him to slam face-first into a wall.] I guess I should have known that Tomoyo would pass the strength test with flying colors.

Youhei

[Angry] I'm not your guinea pig, dammit!

What are you talking about?

Nagisa

Thanks for joining the team, Tomoyo. We're happy to have you.

I haven't agreed to anything yet. All I said is that I might join if you could get Misae to join, too.

Tomoya

Misae looks like she's in pretty good shape. We gotta make sure we recruit her no matter what.

Youhei

Don't worry! She'll do it for me! We go way back! [Nagisa sees Yusuke Yoshino working on a telephone pole.]

Nagisa

Oh, isn't that Yusuke Yoshino?

Oh, yeah. The guy from the wedding, right?

Youhei

While we're at it, we might as well ask him to join, too! [He then calls out to Yusuke, waving] Hey! Yoshino! [He doesn't hear him]

Nagisa

I don't think he can hear you.

Youhei

Let's do a "Yoshino call"!

Tomoya

A "Yoshino call"?

Youhei

Yeah, like when you want an encore. He used to be in a rock band, right? We gotta speak his language if we want him to hear us! All together! [Tomoya, Nagisa, Tomoyo, and Youhei start chanting "Yoshino". Yoshino eventually comes down from the pole and smacks Youhei with his worker's helmet.]

Are you making fun of me, punk?!

Kotomi

The first pitch has a 62% chance at being a low-inside ball. Bat length: 800mm. Ball size: 70mm. Based on the length of my arms and operating range, combined with my calculation of the ball's speed, I should be able to hit it! [The batter throws the ball and Kotomi barely hits the ball.]

Youhei

A Texas leaguer. Wow.

Tomoya

[Shouting] Run Kotomi! Run! [Kotomi runs for first base.]

Safe!

Kotomi

Alright! I did it!

Youhei Sunohara

Are we eating lunch in the cafeteria?

Tomoya Okazaki

Wait a sec, you just got here, didn't you?

Youhei

Yeah.

Tomoya

Then you gotta make some kind of opening statement. If you don't, it'll throw me off all afternoon.

Youhei

[Irritated] Okay, fine! I'll just start over again! [With a more cheerful tone] Hey, how are you, Okazaki? Where would you enjoy eating lunch today?

Tomoya

Way too eloquent.

Youhei

Huh?

Tomoya

I'm saying that was too eloquent for you. It was so out of character, I don't know how to respond.

Youhei

[Irritated] Then what do you want me to do?!

Tomoya

Try saying "all that, and a toilet." at the end of your sentences. That'll take an edge off the eloquence and make it sound more low-brow like you.

Youhei

[Sighs] Yeah, whatever. Maybe some other time, okay?

Youhei

Huh? Mei's staying at your place again? Are you okay with that?

Nagisa Furukawa

Of course! We don't mind at all! The whole family loves Mei!

Tomoya

And just for the record, she already told your parents and ok'd it with her school back home. She wanted to stick around and keep an eye on you.

Youhei

Huh?

[In Tomoya's flashback] My brother's in his last semester of high school and he still doesn't know what to do with himself. I'd better stay here. I'm too worried to go home.

Tomoya

[At Youhei] Mei said she wants to have a nice, long talk with you so you be ready.

Sunohara, have you ever thought about your future goals or what you want to do with yourself?

Youhei

Hm...Can't say it comes to mind, no. Obviously college is out of the question, so I guess I'll just find any old job and work any old way. But...If I happen to find a responsible girlfriend to look after me, I bet Mei wouldn't be so worried all the time.

Tomoya

Yeah! That's it! [Cuts to Youhei, Tomoya, and Nagisa in the courtyard.] All you gotta do is pretend you're going out with some nice girl. Someone really smart or dependable or whatever. We can introduce her to Mei and she'll stop worrying.

I see what you mean, but it's not good to lie.

Youhei

I know. You think anyone would go for that?

Tomoya

Well, sure. Why not? It's not like you're ugly or anything. Even if you have a rotten personality, you still have a baby face. You appeal to their maternal instinct. You're Baby Sunohara! [Nagisa looks at Youhei with a curious look.]

Youhei

Y-You think so?

Tomoya

Just think. If you and your fake girlfriend happen to hit it off, it might even turn into a real relationship.

Youhei

Whoa! The Okazaki magic, huh?! [Getting extremely determined.] Alright! Bring it on! I'm ready to rock!

[Whispering] Tomoya, are you actually helping him or are you just having fun at his expense?

Tomoya

Uh, a little bit of both, but he'll live.

Nagisa

[To Youhei] Well, Tomoyo is sitting right over there. Why don't you ask her?

Youhei

[Surprised] For real?

Nagisa

Why not? I think she'd make a great girlfriend. She's pretty and caring and smart.

Tomoya

[To Nagisa] I don't know. It might be dangerous. Look at him, he's freaking out.

Youhei

[Nervous. To Tomoya] S-Shut up! W-who's freaking out, huh?!

Nagisa

[To Tomoya] Think we should take him to a doctor?

Tomoya

[Groans. To Youhei] Calm down. Just take a deep breath, okay?

Youhei

[Takes in several breaths] Okay! Time to deliver!

Nagisa

I really think we need to go to the doctor...

Tomoya Okazaki

Alright, there's the Old Man.

Youhei Sunohara

Oh, man. I'm really starting to freak out right now!

Tomoya

You gonna give up?

Youhei

I shan't, for Sanae is my angel and I would face the fires of Hell for her love!

Tomoya

Alright then...Good luck with that. [Youhei walks over to Akio.]

Youhei

Hello, sir!

Akio Furukawa

Oh, you're that Sunohara kid, right? What's up? Here to buy some bread?

Youhei

Sir, please allow me to marry your sweet Sanae. [He bows]

Akio

[Confused] Huh?

Sanae Furukawa

What's wrong, honey? You look upset. [Tomoya starts laughing.]

Youhei

Honey?!

Nagisa Furukawa

Tomoya, you mean after all this time, you still haven't told Sunohara the truth about my mom?

Youhei

Your mom?! Say what?!

Sanae

That's right. Akio and I are husband and wife.

Youhei

[Surprised] WHAT?!

Akio

You trying to make a move on my woman, punk?! You're gonna die! [Akio chases after Youhei, screaming.] Get back here!

Tomoya

[narrating] It's funny. I'll never forget the first time I met Sunohara. [Shows a flashback of Tomoya walking down the hall with Mr. Komura and Youhei comes out of the teachers office.] Some weird guy with bleached hair and bandages. I couldn't help laughing the moment I saw him. Actually, I think that was the first time I laughed since I came to that school. He might have looked stupid, but it was the kind of stupid I wanted in on. Not much of a story, but that's how we met. Ever since then, we've been together all the time. Ever since then, we've been laughing...and we still are now.

[together] Happy birthday, Nagisa.

I hope you have many more to come.

Youhei Sunohara

Happy birthday and Merry Christmas!

Kyou

Sure are cheerly despite getting turned down cold. In case you didn't hear, he actually sent an application to a modeling agency.

Youhei

I can do whatever I want! I'm moving back home next year, so I'll just end up getting a job there either way!

Tomoya Okazaki

Nagisa.

Nagisa Furukawa

Hm?

Tomoya

Here, I got you a Birthday/Christmas present.

Really? It's a Dango!

Tomoya

Hm?

Thank you so much, Tomoya. Thank you guys for coming here to visit me. I know I'm not worth much, but...

Akio Furukawa

Don't talk about yourself like that, Nagisa. We love you. You're just as important as anyone else in this family.

Kotomi

Uh-huh.

Kyou

That's right.And not only that, you're a wonderful friend to all of us, too.

Akio

I know you think of yourself as a burden sometimes. But as long as you're happy, we're happy, too. So please be happy, Nagisa, for us.

I'm sorry, you guys. Okay. I'll try my best.

Youhei

He-he.

Tomoya

[narrating] It was Christmas Eve, Nagisa's birthday. It was also the day when Nagisa decided that she was going to repeat her last year of school. After the New Year, fewer seniors bothered coming to class. I spent my time with Nagisa. Even though she was small, and even though she was frail, she always tried her best. And I wanted to try my best to protect her for the rest of my life.

Nagisa Furukawa

Hold on just a sec. I'll get it for you.

Tomoya Okazaki

Oh, that's great. Thank you.

Hello. Okazaki residence. Yes. He's in the other room. I'll go get him for you. Hey Tomoya! It's someone from Hikarisaka Electric!

Tomoya

Huh? You don't think I got the job already, do you? Hello. Okazaki speaking. Oh yeah, hi boss. Can I help you with something? Huh? From Kinoshita? Oh, uh, okay. What's his number? Okay... Yeah... Got it. Yeah, thanks for giving me a call, I appreciate it. Yes, sir. I'll talk to you soon.

Is something wrong?

Tomoya

They said one of my dad's associates called for me. I don't know...

Hello, this is Kinoshita.

Tomoya

Uh, yeah, this is Okazaki.

Oh, Tomoya. Bad news.

Tomoya

Huh?

It's, uh, about your father. He was arrested by the police. Apparently, he was dealing, um, something illegal. I just heard the story myself. So I thought I'd better contact you in case you didn't know.

This is a small town, so rumors spread quickly, you know how it is. Well, anyway, I'm sorry, but the construction company is withdrawing their job offer.

Tomoya

Oh, I see...

If it's any consolation, you're still welcome here, of course. Nothing has changed. This just happened at a bad time. You'll have other opportunities. Don't let it get you down.

Tomoya

Nagisa.

Yes?

Tomoya

What do you say we leave this town? Just you and me. I should have realized it sooner but my father is, like some kind of curse. He ruins everything for me. I wanna start over somewhere as far away from him as possible.

No. You can't do that. That would be like running away. This is something you have to work out. We don't have to run. We'll be happy as long as we have each other, right?

Tomoya

But why does it have to be here?! We can be happy anywhere, can't we?! You said we'd be happy as long as we have each other, didn't you?

I didn't mean that we have to stay here for sure. I'll go anywhere as long as I'm with you. But, when we leave this town, we have to leave with positive feelings, not because we're running away. If we leave with regret, then we won't be able to come back. We'll be throwing it away. This is our town. This is the place where you and I were born. It's not something we should just throw away.

Tomoya

Even if nothing good ever happened here?

I don't know, a lot of good things happened to me. Meeting you is the best thing that's happened to me in my entire life.

Tomoya

[Sighs] I don't get it. What are you trying to pull? What the hell do you want from me? You think it's fun to screw up other people's lives? Is that it? To be honest, I don't even consider you my father anymore. Of course, that doesn't seem to make any difference to anyone else. To the rest of the world, I'm still your son. Come on...Don't you have anything to say about this? Don't you have anything to say to this son whose life you've destroyed over and over again? [He doesn't answer. He then starts shouting at him.] WHAT THE HELL'S WRONG WITH YOU?! [Tomoya's chair falls back as he abruptly stands up.]

Nagisa

Tomoya, stop!

Tomoya

I've had enough. [He turns to exit] I have nothing more to say to you; there's no point. You can rot in Hell for all I care! [He exits]

Nagisa

Tomoya...

Nagisa

Tomoya! Wait! Hold on! Come back! [Tomoya is holding his wrist with one arm, restraining it.] Tomoya... [Tomoya then punches a nearby wall] Stop it! What are you doing?! [Nagisa takes his fist away from the wall, revealing it to be badly bruised. Tomoya then forces Nagisa to let go of him. He pauses and then prepares to punch the wall again with the same fist.] Tomoya! Tomoya! Stop! Tomoya! Tomoya! [Tomoya then is forced by Nagisa to turn around, revealing her crying face. Tomoya then falls to his knees with Nagisa.] Does...your hand hurt...?

Tomoya

Yeah...

Nagisa

It'll hurt if you take a bath...

Tomoya

Probably so...[Pause] Nagisa?

Nagisa

Yes?

Tomoya

Will you marry me?

Nagisa

[Pause] Yes.

Tomoya

Are you sure?

Nagisa

For as long as we've been together, I've known you were the only one. I mean it.

Tomoya

Even if I'm like this? Even though...I'm so pathetic?...

Nagisa

It's fine. I'm pathetic, too. But...I think if we're together...we can grow stronger...

Tomoya

[Embraces Nagisa] Then you...you'll stay with me?

Nagisa

Yes...Of course I'll stay with you...No matter what happens...Forever and ever...

Tomoya Okazaki

Old Man...

Akio Furukawa

Sure is coming down hard. Guess it's another rainy autumn, huh? [Sanae stands by Nagisa's side.] Hit or miss, this is the last pitch you're gonna get. Ready? [Tomoya nods affirmatively then gets in his batting stance. Akio pitches the ball, in which Tomoya finally hits.]

Nagisa Furukawa

Tomoya!

Sanae Furukawa

Home run! [Tomoya then runs over towards Akio and gets on his hands and feet.]

Tomoya

Give me Nagisa's hand in marriage! [Long pause. Akio then responds]

Akio

Look at that. Just like me when I was that age.

Sanae

Really honey, I've known you two were alike since I first met him. You're two of a kind.

Akio

I was in a hurry to grow up, even though I didn't know why. Guess kids never learn, do they? [Nagisa comes to Tomoya's side]

Sanae

All the more reason you should understand.

Akio

[To Tomoya] Pick your head up. [He does so] If you ever make my little girl suffer, then I'm taking her back from you. You don't want to test me on that, kid.

Tomoya

Then...you mean...?

Thank you, dad! [Akio walks away to pick up his umbrella]

Sanae

Tomoya, Nagisa isn't just our daughter, she's our hope. So I want you to know that today on you're part of that hope, too. So never forget that your happiness is our happiness as well. In other words, try your best to be happy, okay?

Akio

I feel like I've been waiting for this all my life! The day I can finally have a drink with my daughter!

Tomoya

[To Nagisa] This is your first time drinking sake, huh?

Nagisa

Yes, it's a new experience for me. [She sniffs the sake then shudders.]

Sanae

Nagisa, no need to force yourself, okay?

Nagisa

No, I can have one cup at least. I have to for dad's sake.

Akio

Nagisa...You have no idea how proud I am to call you my daughter.

Tomoya

[At Akio] Booze really means a lot to you...

Nagisa

Here I go. [She drinks the sake]

Akio

Whoo-hoo-hoo! Just look at her go! [Nagisa finishes drinking, then her face turns red.]

Tomoya

[To Nagisa] Uh, you look dizzy. Are you alright?

Nagisa

Hey, Tomoya...You're so far away...Why are you spinning?

Tomoya

Huh?

Nagisa

I like you up-close.

Tomoya

You're drunk already, huh?

Nagisa

I'm not drunk! How dare you!

Tomoya

I hate to break it to you, but that's what all drunks say. [Nagisa looks at him with gazing eyes]

Nagisa

Tomoya...

Sanae

You two are so lovey-dovey!

Tomoya

I don't think "lovey-dovey" is the word for this!

Nagisa

Hey, Tomoya!

Tomoya

Uh, yes?

Nagisa

I see you staring at my mom! You cut that out!

Tomoya

What the heck are you talking about?

Sanae

Yeah, Tomoya...Like, what's the deal, huh? [Tomoya then sees her after drinking her sake.]

Tomoya

Aw, now you got Sanae drinking, too! Great!

Sanae

Oh my, Tomoya. Could it be you've take an interest in little old me?

Nagisa

Bored with me already, Tomoya?!

Akio

Whoa! Here comes the catfight!

Tomoya

One of those cats is your wife, you know!

Nagisa

Come on, Tomoya! Who do you like better?!

Sanae

Oh my...Is he gonna confess his love to me?

Tomoya

[At Nagisa] What do you mean? Of course I-

Akio

Pick Sanae! Her boobs are bigger! [Tomoya takes note of them, slams his head on the table, then turns his attention back to Nagisa.]

Nagisa

Hey, buddy! What are you getting all flustered about, huh?

Akio

That proves he likes Sanae after all!

Tomoya

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Sanae

You don't like me?

Tomoya

No, it's not that! I mean, I like you as a person!

Nagisa

You admit it?!

Tomoya

[Getting frustrated.] AHHHHHHHHH! WHAT THE HELL DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?!

Akio

[At Sanae] Alright, I think we've teased the boy enough. Who cares if he likes you or not? You've got me, don't ya?

Sanae

I wasn't teasing him. I was serious. I might be interested in him myself.

Akio

What?! Don't leave me, Sanae!

Nagisa

Make up your mind, Tomoya!
