UPDATE 1: Omni has beat us all with a post about a 15-second commercial for After Story. Links available there; get excited!
KyoAni will produce CLANNAD After Story! At first Kurogane found out, but it was only information from Moonphase, which is a credible source, yes, but I wanted to wait for something a little more concrete.
Which Ascaloth then found in the form of a magazine spread .. and then I see Kurogane followed up on his entry with an update, too, with the same image (moetron, too). I’m personally trying to find a high-res of it or at least the identity of the magazine in which it’s published (I’m assuming Dengeki G’s), but this is great enough to start. I expect to be updating this entry as the next few days pass, too.
Anyway, the general part of the announcement includes the fact that all the cast and staff will remain the same. Kurogane adds a mention (from the article) about KyoAni taking only the Nagisa route at first, but then deciding on ‘this’ instead. If my assumptions are correct, After Story has more than just Nagisa in it (even though she’s the primary focus), so that means I’ll get to see more Kyou and the other girls in this next season? I sure hope so!
More news as the blogosphere continues erupting with it!

Let hope they don’t screw this up or heads will roll. And need more Kyou and Tomoyo in it as well.
w00t~ There’s no such thing as too much Clannad dangoodness :D
If it’s based on the After Story in the game(which most likely will happen), then Tomoyo and Kyou won’t have much weight in it, since it’s continueing Nagisa story line.(Tomoyo only appeared once in the AS in the game…)
when will it show up, if they keep making me wait, someone will die
Im so darn excited!
