I've watched Air, Kanon 2006, Clannad, and played planetarian.

I mainly liked Kanon and Clannad for their comedic value. Air is super sad and was by far my favourite of the bunch.

Say what you want about the arcs involving the minor characters, and even the 1000 A.D. part which are dull and kinda dumb, but the main stuff involving Yukito, Misuzu and her mother is untouchable. Nothing in Kanon or Clannad even comes close to it.

You can't simply pull all the routes together without explaining the Illusionary World thing. I hope the upcoming After Story series will make up for it.

Kanon anime in other hand is pretty good. I'd say if you don't have enough time to sit and play the game you can just watch the show.

I heard the Air game is better than the anime, I'd love to play it but I don't know Japanese. Better wait for the translation project to finish.

Air is probably the best KEY game ever made in terms of writing, Clannad is the most popular but it's also pretty good. I'd say it's the second best.

Honestly for me Clannad was phenomenal.
I cried at the end of Tomoyo, Kotomi, Sunohara, Misae and Fuuko and even routes like Yukine or Kappei managed to be extremely entertaining and touching.
The best thing about them was that I never felt "manipulated", it was touching without really being overdramatic.
