Tomoya Okazaki (岡崎朋也, Okazaki Tomoya?) is the male protagonist of Clannad. Due to his habit of always arriving late to school, skipping classes during the day, and staying out all night, he has been labeled as a delinquent, or a young person who defies authority. He is the type of person who thinks deep thoughts about his life, but usually does not voice them out.
Despite Tomoya's sarcastic ways he has a knack for solving the problems of his friends, and seems to care for all of them deeply even if he does not want to admit it. He is also seemingly unaware that some of the girls at school show interest in him or pretends not to know. He loves to play innocent and lighthearted pranks on people; sometimes for his amusement, but mostly to help the victim in realizing his/her mistakes.
Though Tomoya is a delinquent he does not go around looking for fights. However when he does get into a brawl he is shown as a very tough fighter, able to take his opponent's blows and still manage to counter-attack fiercely.
The major story in Clannad is about Tomoya learning about the point of having family and friends, which slowly changes his cynical and negative outlook on life. He also has alternate timeline counterparts that end up with Tomoyo and Kyou respectively in the anime.
Ever since his mother, Atsuko, died in a car accident when he was young, Tomoya has been living with his father, Naoyuki Okazaki, with whom he argues with constantly. Tomoya was injured during a fight with his father three years ago; since then, he could no longer lift his right arm higher than his shoulder. After that incident Tomoya's relationship with his father has been very distant.
In the episode On the Hillside Path Where the Cherry Blossoms Flutter, Tomoya met a girl named Nagisa Furukawa while walking to school. Since then, his life changed for the better. Nagisa describes him as someone who is seemingly mean and bad-mouthed, but is actually kind-hearted.

Youhei Sunohara is Tomoya's best friend, and lives at the Hikarizaka Private High School Student Male Dormitory. Like Tomoya, he is well-known as a delinquent, and even his signature blond hair is a clue to his anti-establishment personality. Though primarily serving as comic relief, Youhei maintains a consistent role throughout the story.

Though Tomoya leaves home to live with the Furukawas early on in the story, he returns home five years later following a meeting with his grandmother in ~After Story~, and convinces Naoyuki to move to the countryside with her.Sanae Furukawa
Sanae Furukawa is Nagisa's mother. Like her daughter, she has reddish-brown hair, and works as a baker at her family bakery, and also teaches a cram school. Despite her aspirations as a baker, her bread is inedible, and does not sell. Her husband, Akio, is known to give her bread away in order to effect the illusion of sales. Despite his efforts, however, she routinely overhears him or others making disparaging comments about her bread, resulting in a running gag through the series being Akio's attempts to reassure her of her baking skills. Sanae is normally depicted as being delicate and emotional, but is actually very strong-willed and determined.Akio Furukawa
Akio Furukawa is Nagisa's father, and the husband of Sanae. With her, he runs Furukawa Bread, where he bakes the bread that actually sells. He enjoys baseball, and frequently plays with neighborhood kids in the park across the street from the bakery. He acts as a father substitute for Tomoya, though he hates to be reminded of the fact. Formerly an actor, he and Sanae gave up on their dreams following their negligence nearly resulting in Nagisa's death. Though often depicted to be harsh, Akio is in fact a very loving father.Misae Sagara
Misae Sagara is the resident manager at the male dormitory where Youhei lives. Although kind, she is very strict when it comes to the dorm rules, and is most often accompanied by her cat. Prior to her graduation, she was the school's first female student council president, and remains somewhat of a legend to the student body. Because of this, she is greatly admired by Tomoyo Sakagami, who often comes to her for advice in her position as student council president.Misae's arc focuses on her past, in which she fell in love with a man named Katsuki Shima. Formerly ill, Katsuki had given his cat the duty of granting Misae a wish before his death. The cat took his human form, and pursues Misae in the hope of fulfilling his duty. During this time, however, he falls in love with her. Eventually, Misae wishes for him to love her forever. Katsuki returns to his cat form, and Misae, unaware of his identity, adopts him.
Kouko Ibuki
Kouko Ibuki is Fuko's elder sister. A former art teacher at Tomoya's school, she frequents Furukawa Bread, and is engaged (and later married to) electrician Yusuke Yoshino. A kind woman, Fuko's desire for her to have a happy wedding is one of the primary reasons she is able to exist as an ikiryō. Little is seen of her after her marriage; however, she has several appearances throughout ~After Story~. Following Fuko's recovery, Kouko keeps a close eye on her, worried about her health.Yusuke Yoshino
Yusuke Yoshino is an electrician who works for the Hikarizaka Electric Company. A former rock musician, he lost his career following a bout of depression which culminated in drug addiction. Both before and after his music career, Kouko Ibuki was one of his strongest supporters, and he married her in Until the End of the Dream. He is fond of giving speeches about the benefits of youth, though only the Sunohara siblings seem to be inspired by them. In ~After Story~, he gives Tomoya a job as an assistant electrician.
Nagisa Furukawa
Nagisa is a shy, clumsy girl who is repeating her last year at school as she was absent for most of the last year due to illness. She has a great interest in drama but because of her weak body has been unable to previously take part in any drama club. Therefore she is determined to start up her own drama club this year and fulfill her dream with the help of fellow classmate Tomoya Okazaki and several others.
Nagisa is the daughter of Akio Furukawa and Sanae Furukawa who run a bakery together. She is an only child but has a close relationship with her parents.
Apart from drama, Nagisa's other interests include an old animé called The Big Dango Family and helping out her friends.
