| Bleh guess the incest will have to wait. >.> "Sure lets look for that necklace you lost 10 years ago by digging at random spots in the dirt. Yeah!!" |

| "Something hard is poking me." - Instant facepalm. And I never do that! Meh, somehow I wished Haruka was a better male lead. But I guess those are hard to find in these kind of animes. I do not care for that he ALWAYS leaves Sora alone, when she's weak and lonely. :/ (Since Sora is actually the only character I truly like. Ryouhei is fine too, but that's because he pays attention to Sora.) |
 love is such a strange thing but with you, it doesn't matter |
-Quasar said: ~Haruka~ Doing girls one arc at a time Told ya ;) -Quasar said: Well, I'm liking this Omnibus format without complete reset since I see things differently now in this arc. I noticed that Akira's father is there happily supporting her which is the cause of misunderstanding in Migiwa's Arc. The maid scene was hilarious once again. I agree, a complete reset wouldn't be as good as this, having said that, I'M STILL WAITING FOR TWINCEST!!!! |
| the sister arc is the last arc. |

SoFarGone said: Also the only arc with a full three episode dedicated to it and I hope they don't crap like repeats of episodes 1/2 stuff. That would be cheap. All for Original Material? Me!the sister arc is the last arc. HowTragic said: I would say Haruka's line were all cheesy! Cheesy grilled and over use in other animes. Pretty much.And that pendant scene was epic cheesy on top of being totally predictable Onyxthegreat said: There are rumors that it will be on the special episodes of the BD/DVDs. I for one can't wait to see her. She has another potential of having nice breasts. So next will be the ending of Akira's arc, after that Nao and Sora... but is Kozue actually getting an arc?! |

| I have a question. How long is Nao's ark and how long will Sora's arc be? Just curious. And someone mentioned that Haru is mostly interested in sex because of Nao, and they had sex when they were kids. How do you know..? This went too fast for me, but since I don't really like Akira I don't mind. |
Kazandravk said: I have a question. How long is Nao's ark and how long will Sora's arc be? Just curious. Nao's herself it to be 2 episodes but if you include 7 that would be 3 in all. Kazandravk said: The VN game and the OP looks pretty suggestive. Right?And someone mentioned that Haru is mostly interested in sex because of Nao, and they had sex when they were kids. I did say earlier Sora's is 3. How do you know..? |
| I'm actually starting to like this show. Maybe its the melodrama. I usually go for nostalgic melancholy shows. |
 |
| I like that having sex comes off as something natural in this series. Ecchi stuff, so common in harem, feels so forced. Here, when people like each other, instead of accidentally grabbing the girl's chest or falling on her pantsu or something, they make love. It may not be "realistic" per se because it happens a little too fast (though how much time passes isn't that clear, unless the game specifies it?), but it sure is more realistic than accidental pervert -> megaton punch! stuff. And the portrayal has been nice too, not too lewd but not too soft either. |
 |
| Akira is ok but I liked Kazuha better, Akira is just more childish. they really aren't shying away from the nudity at all now. it's still weird to just jump back and get what if scenario's. just saw a little bit of Sora and Nao who we'll see more of later I guess when it jumps back again. |
 |
| Kozue do want. Also: nice boobs Akira |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| Where does this arc fall? I still like the maid the most though and I love her mini-stories. I wonder who Akira's mother is cause she has to know. |
  |
| UWAARRRRRGGGHHHH!!!!! Awesomeness. This should keep me satisfied before I get my Wincest route. I think I'm liking Akira better than Kazuha. Still, why are her breast so big? What happened to the delicious FLATNESS!?!?! |
 |
Lefake said: Well Akira was never really flat. I don't think any girls are but if there is then most likely Kozue and Sora are the ones who have the smallest bust TBH. That's what I think.I think I'm liking Akira better than Kazuha. Still, why are her breast so big? What happened to the delicious FLATNESS!?!?! |
| She was much flatter in the Visual Novel. |
|
| Two girls in two episodes? I'm so proud of you Haruka. |
| And here I was hoping they would have sex and just get over with her arc in one episode. Oh well... |
| Loved the bath tub scene though I wanted more H-stuff... |
| WTF..... is this shit totally turned into a hentai.... and also i felt like its a lame ripoff from Kanon...... Akira = Ayu Story involves a tree.... which is no longer exist in present... :P |
 |
Mony-Chan said: Agreed. He is as mundane as Junichi >.>Meh, somehow I wished Haruka was a better male lead. Sora's character is drifting a bit. She seems less annoyed & mean. Basically she is like anesthetized Sora now. Thought omnibus format would seem interesting but not liking it at all. Wanted a normal romance show with hard drama in a serene atmosphere but.......T__T Though the BGM is superb for sure. Liked Kazuha better. Skipped through the special at the end. It kills like 3 mins of the show and then there is the OP&ED. |

Linalee-Stratos said: Mony-Chan said: Agreed. He is as mundane as Junichi >.>Meh, somehow I wished Haruka was a better male lead. Which Junichi? Nagase, Asakura or Tachibana? |
|
Lefake said: Linalee-Stratos said: Agreed. He is as mundane as Junichi >.> Which Junichi? Nagase, Asakura or Tachibana? It's Tachibana or so I think. Though they are both your so typical male lead, unlike Haru, Tachibana pussies out when it comes to getting laid. At least, Haru knows what he wants and goes for it, however in an idiotic fashion. With that, I dare say he is slightly better. |

Kuro4735 said: The Akira x Haru relationship came out of practically thin air, which says a lot about how fast the story is going. Its what happens when you take a great VN that has an indepth story and than try to force as many routes as possible while changing details into a pathetically small amount of episodes (12) |

Please elaborate on it If you are complaining that the story is cliché, then what makes you think that this anime is so? It is your loaded term that you need to clarify. For this case, I would assume original ideas is the idea that is synthesized from old ideas. 1.1) Most, if not all best visual novel sellers have original ideas and a compelling story to tell, or else how can it be marketed to the Japanese public? Good HCG? Not the case for this one through. Assuming that the anime adapts the visual novel setting and is done exactly the way that the story is presented to us in the visual novel, then most likely you should find the story quite compelling and "original". 1.2) I guess the problem with this anime with the majority, is that it is too rushed, as a few forumers have pointed out. A VN story is generally deep and requires at least 24 episodes or more. True, details can be omitted, and they should (That what makes Clannad too draggy), but not till the extent that the general idea is lost. 2)You can't just compare scene by scene like what you did. You are just looking too much into detail without looking into the context of the story. The essence of Ayu Kanon story, which is about memories, is different from this essence of the Akira story, in which could be seen as family issues. As far as i am concerned, Kanon is Kanon. Its story is compelling, and I like the Nayuki's route. I will admit that i have not played yosuga no sora, but from the routes which i have searched online, none of the girls' routes blatantly lift parts of the story from kanon. 2.1) Heck, even if you want to assert that Yosuga no Sora follows Kanon in that way of yours, then what about Clannad? It copies the essence and idea from Family Project. 3) Twonline, what you should be lamenting is that there is not a lot of anime out there with a intelligent and compelling plot for us to follow. Your example, Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai and Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai at least have a context and agenda to address to us, the audience. It is unfair to the rest of the anime by saying that they have no original ideas. Heck, even a new way of doing pantyshot can be considered "original". K-on, a slice of life anime can also be "original" as well. What viewers, or at least those in my community, really want is a show with an intelligent plot and with minimum amount of lame stuff such as "fan-service". I believe this anime is guilty of that -.-' Just in case, as I am afraid that you have misconceptions that I am trying to defend this anime, but the reason why i wrote this post is that I feel compelled to correct your paradigms in the statement of yours. Lastly, a different case: Any of you feel that the BGM for this episode did not sync with the animation itself? It do not have the same touch as the one presented in episode 3. |

| Oh wow, did they seriously have sex? That's just... so unbelievable. Enjoyable episode nonetheless. At least the drama doesn't feel forced and awkward like OreImo. |
 |
| Glad the spotlight's on Akira now. I always prefer her over Kazuha. |
| People seem to be assuming just because Haruka has sex with the girls that he is Makoto. Not really since the story resets, if it were to continue he might stay with one girl or they would actually break-up before he has sex with multiple girls. |

Well... They're the same folks who think that it's outrageous for Haru to kiss rich girl and condemn him as a 'manwhore' just because he kissed the girl he likes and their feelings are mutual. I assume it's just another of their attempt to be unfunny by overdramatizing things. I mean, young couples nowadays even have sex with each other on their first date as long as they like each other so why all the fuss? That, or they're all f**ked up in the head by School Days and if so, they have my condolences. HawthorneKitty said: Kanon Tree> Yosuga Tree |

BitchMaster said: Well no not really in my case. Let's see he manwhores a rich girl, next he does the same with a Miko, then the next will be the childhood friend and the best will be saved as his blood sister. prismheart said: People seem to be assuming just because Haruka has sex with the girls that he is Makoto. Well... They're the same folks who think that it's outrageous for Haru to kiss rich girl and condemn him as a 'manwhore' just because he kissed the girl he likes and their feelings are mutual. Now think of Makoto but with time travel or reset switch. Now get my point of not having that, then you have a Makoto who is not different than Haru is. Seriously the only good thing about Makoto is that he never got to do it at a young age and that's too bad for him. That's how I think. |

But the thing is that they're alternative universes, unlike Makoto who manwhores in a single & linear universe. See the difference? Of course it's a weasel way for producers to avoid making Haru look like a manwhore and like it or hate it, that works by def because A Haru in A universe only likes ONE specific A girl and B Haru in B universe only likes ONE specific B girl. That doesn't count as infidelity now, is it? If Makoto pimped girls in separate arcs and sticked with only ONE in each arc, he also wouldn't be considered as 'manwhore' by def. Unless we see Haru pimping 2 girls in one arc; otherwise, he's still innocent and the rotten 'Makoto' is the show's staff for opting this lame omnibus format. |

For me Haruka will still be the time traveler Neo-Makoto think of it that way pretty much. I also blame Nao for making him into whore man. That you can't deny because it all happens in the past where the resets don't go that far. So he is still a man whore! Because he screwed a young childhood friend. If they did it and it is proven in Nao's arc.Unless we see Haru pimping 2 girls in one arc; otherwise, he's still innocent and the rotten 'Makoto' is the show's staff for opting this lame omnibus format. We shall have a feast indeed to that! Is all I am saying. |
Maugomale said: Fifteen bloody minutes in and it's already turned into something sexual. I blame the director (Aki-Sora be damned). I don't know what you're expecting from this show. Really, everyone who's thinking, "Man, I like this, but there's too much ecchi/nudity/whatever!" should just drop this and be done with it ^^ check said: The whole scene where he was trying to find the pendant was so idiotic, digging at random places to find something that was lost years ago. I could not stop laughing, it was so lame. Yeah, that was a pretty contrived setup for the bathtub scene. |
