Aki-Sora

This OVA has changed my life. Since I watched this Masterpiece I have a better relationship with my sisters. I now understand them better in their way of thinking. I lead my life like the Protagonist the biggest giga Chad the greatest thinker of our time. He will lead the revolution in our society. I was crying all the way trough my watch and even on my 69th one I was still in tears. I was so sad when it was over I wish i could forget everything and experience it again. I hope this OVA will also change someones life. Truly magnificent.

*Light spoilers ahead*

(TLDR Review at the bottom, as usual, thanks for reading)

Aki Sora is an interesting OVA. At first, I watched it, and then brushed it off as haha very funny xddd kinda meme OVA along the lines of Boku no Pico. The kind of title you watch only because of the fatalities it has given to many eyes. Though something did intrigue me about Aki Sora when I watched it during such a time, maybe it was some irrational thought but the presentation screamed something along with some kind of hidden message.

So I gave it a rewatch. Seeing what kind of conclusion I'd come ... to after another watch.

It is a lot different now.

The narrative here is inconsistent, specifically, the characters are. I don't understand how I got to the conclusion in the first place, but Aki Sora was never trying to explore forbidden love in a sense where both characters were passively fighting against their consciences, rather, these characters were just up and down the place, more so Sora than Aki. Aki seems to understand what it is she is doing, until she states otherwise, until, she goes back to what she was doing again. The same is true for Sora, although Sora seems a little more confused and is harder to decipher if or if not he truly understands what he does, because again, he contradicts himself quite a bit, just more subtle than Aki. The fact of the matter is that the pair understand that they do bad stuff, but have an underlying motive that somehow bamboozles everything that they know of beforehand, so you never quite know if they are genuine about what it is they are doing, or if they are broken and lost with their mentality and morality. Only real-life human behaviour could probably set in stone the two, and to me, Aki is probably along the evil person line rather than good. Her behaviour, her initiative, her selfishness, her manipulation, just adds up against her at the end of the day. Sora comes across as a victim due to Aki, though, again, due to events that take place, I can never quite tell whether he was satisfied with Aki's actions, or whether he didn't know any better. It is a mix between the two. Chances are he isn't broken, and probably committed to taboo love as much as Aki did.

It brings an interesting ground to with when understanding the presentation of Aki Sora. On the one side, it could be that the anime was telling the tale of individuals who've acted on primitive thoughts, the id if you like. They knew what they were doing was wrong, but they did so anyway. Or, the anime could be about broken individuals being lost in a world they knew no better in the actions suitable for society. A spoil on the blank slate. The former seems more believable than the latter, though, there could be a mix between the two.

I wouldn't go into Aki Sora thinking this level of detail was made whilst the team was producing the work. It could have been done, but I simply don't believe such, it probably does fall into fetish realms of guilty pleasures and what not. But, the concept is interesting to think about in the first place. I do believe following the tangent in which the margin of error becomes ridiculous due to prolonged extrapolation is not ideal, however, no one said it isn't allowed. That is why I brought this forward in the first place.

For its time, the production values here are as good as anything else in very early 2010. I cannot consistently rate with the most fitting score because I don't watch a ton of anime like that, but I do think it is safe to say that this was pretty good for its time, just not enough to surpass the average. The sound here was part of the reason I overrated Aki Sora and thought it was some kind of message to be taken away from after viewing, though after watching it a second time, yeah, it wasn't *all* that grand, they were still soundtracks that was actually very nice to hear. Brief comments on the seiyuus, and I only have to praise Kawaragi Shiho for taking on Aki's role, because she does make a pretty good fitting impression many people seem to just want to cut just enough with.

At the end of the day, this is just some OVA that goes into touchy subjects (literally). It is probably offensive to some individuals, though, if you are like me who leaves with a blank face as with literally every anime, then you are probably not going to mind this one on your list. In a universal sense, there isn't a lot here anyway. It almost does embrace its simplicity, but it does it in a way that actually cares too much about its characters despite not being long enough so you can't really call it an expression either.

I wouldn't actively recommend this, though I am not one to get others to shun it either, it is just there if you want to have a watch at it really. It's a story about incest at the end of the day.
----------

TLDR Review:
It's an OVA about incest you can probably spawn theories on human initiative and motivation out of if you are like myself. Otherwise, doesn't have a lot to it other than brother and sister do some sex. Looks decent for its time, sounds better in most categories. Yeah, not a lot here all in all.
----------

Rewatching Aki Sora makes me want to read the manga tbh, I was going to rewatch this for a while specifically to redo an earlier review I made on this, dunno if I was gonna change anyway but that's information you can use if you want. I really want to see how everything plays out from start to finish with the actual story, idk, it just got me thinking, I need to see it in its pure form and its entirety to at least say something about it knowing I've seen everything. But that is not now and is for another day. Until then.

Just remembered there is also a sequel that needs to be watched…


Overall, 6/10.

Don't watch this anime dude, but if you want to see an anime to masturbate it's your chance big boy, otherwise you better get out of here, first I think the sex scenes are longer than the anime itself, the protagonist is very similar to the peak from boku no Pico, and is used as a sex puppet by the girls throughout the anime, but it's still his fault to allow or not to do any contrary action during the anime, this anime reminds me a lot of Yosuga no sora but no routes and less virility from the protagonist lol.

At ... the end of the anime something happened that I couldn't stand and I came here to complain, the protagonist had sex with his sister who was very angry and wanted to kill because of the girl she likes, who likes the protagonist and still has 6 - 8 minutes to at the end of the anime they had sex and that's when I said calm down, this guy's DICK is magic because such a thing is not possible and with 1 minute to finish comes the ''HAPPY END'' where the protagonist runs with his two sisters and the anime ends.
honestly is where i died.

Again, if you don't masturbate watching this, please don't watch it, it's sick, it's just not worse than school days.
