Graduation

Background

Tomoya tries to convince Akio to talk to him about his decision to marry Nagisa. Akio, however, will only talk to him if he can get a decent hit with a baseball match. Tomoya continues to practice hitting the ball, even during the heavy downpour, until he gets good enough to face Akio again. He finally hits a home run and runs over to Akio to beg him to let Nagisa be with him, to which Akio agrees.

Months later, Christmas time arrives, and as Nagisa turns 20, she has her first drink of sake; when she is drunk, she accuses Tomoya of being attracted to Sanae. Nagisa's fever goes up again, causing her to become absent from school, but not enough to repeat another year. Tomoya soon organizes with some of their friends and previous classmates, including Koumura, to gather at the school and celebrate Nagisa's graduation. Nagisa receives her diploma and finally graduates.

Later, they notify Naoyuki and he congratulates them. Tomoya and Nagisa get married afterward while taking a walk on the hill of cherry blossoms.
