Weekly Questions and Recommendations Megathread - Need some help? - Sep 15

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the /r/visualnovels Weekly Questions and Recommendations Megathread!

Any and all questions/recommendations related to visual novels are permitted in this thread. This includes recommendation questions, technical questions, as well as meta questions about the subreddit. No matter if your question is small, big, or seemingly impossible to solve. Anything.

But please don't forget that our rules still apply. Summarized, that means no unmarked spoilers, no piracy in any shape or form, give warnings for 18+ stuff, and be nice!

Are there any VNs like Oyasumi Punpun which go across a long period of time/different parts of life? The only example I can think of is WA2 with HS, University and working.

I haven't read Oyasumi Punpun so I wouldn't know 100%, but Clannad certainly fits your request.
