^ I'm not exactly sure if I was. I don't recall being emotionally affected the same way others were, but I do know that many of the KyoAni shows I watched were powerful, and did impact me somehow. I enjoyed many of them thoroughly.
I ventured in with Clannad and Clannad After Story, hearing of how it'll pretty much force you to cry, but I guess I wound up fine. I understood why anyone would, though. Shit's tragic. Even then, I enjoyed the hell out of them and re-watched some good chunks of them after the first time.
Then A Silent Voice came around. That was a whole other level of power. I enjoyed it all the same.
Sorry, but my heartstrings were deeply touched by a different show, but I'd have damned myself with lies if I were to say I weren't at least affected by KyoAni's body of work.

I think if we valued others' perspectives more, we could understand each other a bit more. Sadly, impatience and an infectious quick-to-judge attitude by means of assuming malignant intent leave many of us with a good amount of terrible issues. Many of us distrust each other for whatever reason, and have no will to try to understand why others think as they do. All they know as that they don't want to be around someone who is what they are.
