ticklemehellmo said: Now before anyone screams at me, yes. I'm violating the rules. But since Sora's arc only had 2 episodes, it missed some big elements to the overall storyline. In the manga, Haru's e-mail explains that they settled down in a small city in Scandinavia, and that they'll return. Exact quote: "P.S. Not sure when we'll be back, but do tell me if you desire a particular souvenir," hinting that they'll return." Haru and Sora's friends also seem to acknowledge and accept their relationship with each other. In addition, Sora's bunny never got ripped apart. And I'll throw in the final quote while we're at it: "I'll be living with Sora. Our feelings are mutual. So nothing will be able to hinder us...... We'll go on forevermore, just like this boundless sky." Absolutely beautiful. I'd really prefer getting these details at the end of the anime, for me the ending wasn't happy at all. It felt kind of gloomy, a bit like Haru had given upp something really imprortant :/ And about that death theory and why no one recieved mails other than Kazuha and that she'd 'fabricated one', let me remind you that in the first ep Ryohei see's Haru's phone and he's like 'oh cool, we just got the network up and only Ojou-chan (Kazuha) has one' so It's fully understantable that she was the only one to recieve it... But I don't know why they didn't show Sora saving Haru in the lake if that was the case, I was kind of expecting them to die and they were like what, 30m under water and then poof she saved him. I was quite shocked.. and then the show ended after a while. I prefer Nao's ending, it was nice seeing Sora accept her, they had cute clothes and she befriended Akira.. But then the porn kind of ruined the good end.. lol Another thing that bugged me is that this series doesn't have any censorchip and you see alot of nipples and whatnot, but at the beach Ryohei has none.. o_o; and the last - from me is the massive amount of porn, especially the first 3 endings, didn't even have any feels. Sora's was the only one that was ok because it adds to the plot and yeah, I like how Haru gets portraied in her arc more, he felt more 'human'. Positive sides of the series: +First kiss scene with Kazuha, it was nice, felt like their feelings where real and what not. +When Akira's dad praises her +Nao's end except the porn. +Soras arc. wow.. it really had a whole other pacing than the other ones, felt alot more serious and the characters where what i'd call 'more real' that scene when Haru saw his sister getting all horny and calling his name and he cries.. was almost heartbreaking, it felt painful to watch the last arc but not in a bad way, I really enjoyed the story it was unique and you really wanted to know what was going to happen. +music and art. I loved the music, and the visuals were nice. I'd rate this one 8.5/10 for Soras arc and 6/10 for others so, 7/10 as a whole. I think I'd prefer this series to be 12 ep of Sora's arc only.. you would have seen better character developement and it would still be interessting, I think. I haven't read the VN but I think this is probably a very good anime adaption. *cough*Togainu no chi*cough* |
| So you mean to tell me everyone had a happy ending except the class Rep? I mean it would of been nice if they did a "Class Rep" Route like they did the others |
| there we gooo, incest arc=best arc. The lake scene was so cheesy, but whatever. Sora Arc's the only arc I feel worth watching. Great Incest :D Sora's spoiled attitude can only be balanced when Haru returns her with affection like this arc or it's hard to enjoy watching Sora. She don't get any love the other arcs. =( For people who came for the incest or to watch Sora like me, watch Ep 1, 10, 11, 12. You won't miss much story. All you need to know is Haru's been dating Nao. |
| lol I got no idea why it's rated so low |
happyanime3 said: lol I got no idea why it's rated so low Pretty much.. I picked it up to watch in between shows and didn't think much of it but to my surprise it really was something different, the good kind of different. I gave 9/10 |
| Just walk don't run drink juice yum yum! |
| Sometimes hard to admit you can watch such an anime to people but~ I really liked this anime, especially the Sora arc. I got so impatient with waiting I kinda skimmed through Nao's arc only looking at things that would matter. Overall I loved the ending. And I agree with Nao when she said you cant stop yourself from loving someone. So maybe its a moral to be had? Disregarding the incest of course ahah. |
| Save the Lungs, Rock the Gums. |
| This arc is the most fucked up arc. I feel very sorry for Kozue. 7/10. Damn if I'm not really generous, I can give this series a 4. |

14394 said: Same. Guess people don't like hentai in their anime. Reasonable enough.happyanime3 said: I gave 9/10lol I got no idea why it's rated so low Didn't spend to much time fluffing up characters, which was a very refreshing take on romance. Didn't do the harem formula, so I gave it points for that. And most of all, it was true incest. Still wondering how they got out of the lake. The 2nd ED implies NAO saved them... |
| I didnt know (wasnt even thinking) that it would be split into Arcs, would probably like it more if they made it into Sora arc for full 12 eps. Split into arcs it was interesting in a way but it made me think how Pokemon theme song would fit Haruka if its lyrics changed ... xD xD anyway rating arcs individually, got 7 in the end so rated it that way .. |
 I've got a bad habit of clicking spoilers too fast, then regret it .. "The only ones who should kill are those who are prepared to be killed." |

| I agree with the people above, a shame this anime is rated so poorly. |
| Honestly the entire series gets 5/5. Awesome series and every Arc was enjoyable. From all the arcs I still prefer the girl with the viola, not sure if her name is Suzaha, watching lots of animes hard to keep up with names. For an arc with 3 episodes maybe 2 1/2 at most if was pretty well executed. However I feel sorry for the girl in the ponytails at the end class rep I believe. She loved Haru, too shy to speak, and they end in bad terms, she tells him we can't be friends anymore after school, and bam he leaves the town without saying good bye. It's understandable that he would only get rejection by society should Haru be seen dating his sister. Last, who are we to judge who we love. Love comes in many forms, and even thought morally it's wrong to love your sister intimately there is nothing that can stop love from developing, it's a natural process. We as humans want society to accept us so we do what society will thinks it's right. |

PurpleYam said: I was going to give the series a 6 or 7/10, but when I read the the theory that the twins are actually dead, it made me rethink the series. The fact that Sora's bunny was shown to be destroyed then recreated is profound enough to make me think that this anime got a tragic (and thus more satisfying) ending. 7.5/10. I'll decide whether to round it up or not later... Whoa!! I did not notice that. That's pretty awesome!! Although I don't think they would have mentioned the last text of them leaving. But I do enjoy the theory behind it. Man...and I had just settled with a 7 rating.....might have to bump it up...... I think if it were without a doubt true (that they died), I would maybe give it a 9..... I'll sit on my rating for a bit now.....decide later. |

PonyMaster5000 said: The same people that give this review less than a 7, are the same people that gave School Days a 1 for showing nudity in an anime lmao... This show is seriously good, and a lot better than the crap they're putting out right now. Wallace93 said: I agree with the people above, a shame this anime is rated so poorly. So true man... So true.. People who give this series a bad rating are those type of people wo run the normal "harem-comedy-romance" and have no sense for how things normally and usually run. Well, despite the incest and the last episode of School Days of course. Things aren't rosy and shiny everytime. And physical contact between lovers is also a common and normal thing. Even in an anime. There adults among anime watchers too, so the audience is there to create such kind of an anime, even if it's more west-europe thing orientated (Kissing, Sex, Sleeping overnight etc..). I love Yosuga no Sora! |

| Pretty lame anime overall. Shitty and generic story harem story. 5/10 |
Monotony said: McRib said: Thank God this is over. Have you been watching this series? Cause it seems like you've been posting on every, if not most of the episode discussions. If it really violates your moral/ethic principles, then you don't have to bother watching it, let alone express your hatred for this show. Anyways, I thought the last episode was wonderfully executed as others say. The dramatic tension build-up between characters was a plus for this show. . . no, I understand him completely. This show is just pure head *bang*...... *dies* |
| O.O |
| That's my ass because of the temperature rose elder and Nao. That's just the arch of the good sister, the rest are average. |
| If you really enjoyed this anime, I suggest you pick up "Haruka no sora" it's a direct sequel to the original visual novel that this is based off. It quite amazing. so unless the anime had an anime only ending the twins are still healthy and alive. |
 |
| Just finished watching this anime finally wish I would of watched it sooner. Didn't realize how good it was. Much better ending than Oreimo imo. I laughed when the girl walked in and saw them having sex the way Sora looked up at her was priceless. |
| This is how good ecchi should look like. I guess rating is bad cuz it's divided into arcs. It's much better than things like - higchschool dxd/hs of dead/sora no ot~/to love ru For me it's best ecchi type anime right now, score 9/10. |
 |
| Sora's arc -> 10 /10 The rest -> 5/10 I guess I'll give it a 7 /10 overall. It was much much better than expected. I mean, a lot of people talked me shit about this series and, as someone already said above, it has a unique and a rather original touch compared to other eroge anime adaptations. The only flaw was the over dramatization of different character situations (except from the wincest one, in which a lot of drama was justified). The pace was too random and inconsistent, as well, except, again, for the excellent Sora's arc. Regarding the two last scenes of sora's arc (the one where they drown, and the other when they are in the train together), Has someone thought that they could be both bad and good ends? I mean, the first one being a timeline where they die, and the another one being the timeline where they go overseas to spend their happy wincest life together. I find it very logical. The broken rabbit could also be a metaphor of their incest "sin" seen by the other people. Well, there are lots of theories, but I definitely LOVED Sora. The sex scenes between the two siblings were the best in the series (by a great margin), as well! The eleventh episode is hot as fuck! |
SilmendilSep 21, 2013 5:19 PM
| Well like everyone said ep 11-12 made up for the full anime. This ending made me feel so happy even it was incest. Seeing 2 cute people having so much love for each other... Sora FTW |
| Watched first two episodes, skimmed a few more while reading some comments on them and skipped to Sora's arc. Episodes 10 - 12 were very good. |
| They are dead. The hints where everywhere! The text message happened after the reset you know :D! That's my theory! Muhaha! *Going Crazy* |
 |
| If I may, Idk if I'm bumping this old thread but people have commented on it from time to time(2010 when it first came out then a bit in 2011, 2012,2013, and the last one in the start of 2014) and also I finished this anime yesterday, and did cry a lot lmao im such a pussy, which leads me to lreply on this thread because the dead theories are good but they are just not true Also I have some typos in this so sorry* So this is my opinion: They are not dead and I do find that the dead theories are plausible and do provide good points but they are just theories and not real 1. Sora's bunny Obviously it's a cherished momento from her mom and how she always carries it with her etc... and then it shows up destroyed when nao and the rest of the group searches Haru's and Sora's home after they leave, but it is obvious that Haru could bought her a new one, which symbolizes his love for her and how they are going to start a new life together... and Sora's internet addiction(just like mines and mostly the rest of us lol) could have easily replaced it, and they could have customized it as well. 2. Haru asking Sora if they're alive(after he wakes up to Sora crying over him) Even though she does not respond, it is not true that they are dead because it is quite obvious they are alive and are able to still communicate and touch each other. When Haru wakes up you can see a water trail to the spot where Haru is lying, with Sora ontop of him waiting for him to wake up, strongly indicating the fact that Sora swam both of them to safety. Subsequently, it shows Haru and Sora half naked, Haru without his shirt and Sora without her shirt also, and how they say it is warm.. they made love as a way to warm up because Haru tells Sora she's wet(which made them cold) and they both kiss, also you have to take to the fact that it was at night time they both almost drowned if you look at the sky and sun rise when they both start to come to their senses and confess their feelings and love for each other. Even though a lot of people supporting the dead theory say that Sora is not a good swimmer, it is not true because no where in the anime does it say Sora is a bad swimmer. However you also have to consider the fact Sora is weak, but Haru appears light due to his slim profile given as a characterisic, and that goddess or w/e her name is, i forgot it c.__.c, most likely gave her the strength to pull her and Haru out of harms way. The whole Nao coming back and then saving them and then leaving them alone does not strongly side with me because it just sounds really unlikely for that to happen, even after the fact she parts with Haru after a failed search to find Sora together. However it could be possible that she did but we may never know that, since the creators did a great job with living the suspense of who really saved them, which is kind of obvious it was Sora who did it. 3. To The Distant Sky meaning/The Train Ride To Heaven This is one of the main supporting facts of the death theory of both Haru and Sora. It is strongly indicated that they are both alive and well, and just because they are alone does not mean that they are only passengers to go to "heaven", and in the beginning of the anime it shows them alone of the train as well. The bunny and I guess the change of clothes, which I wasnt too keen h something I forgot) The whole title of "To The Distant Sky" is just a meaning that they are starting a new life for themselves just like Haru says in the anime and in the manga, for those who didnt read the manga but im not too sure of the anime i do think he does though, and not that they are dead. 4. The Whole Money Scenario A Yosuga No Sora lover my self, I was also puzzled at how they managed to afford those train rides to the city where that artisian lives. But it is also possible he/she sent them money for the two so they afford the trip. Again the creators did a really excellent job with the suspense and whole dead vs alive debate by providing with hints and clues to both of their fates. At first, when they arrived to the house, they have money but at the end Haru says that their parents left them with no money, which is really a confusing fact because in the beginning of the show they buy groceries immediately after they move in, but perhaps they had some money from the train ride(because once again they have relatives that could have supported them financially after their parents death) This shows that their relatives could have helped them in episode 12 when Sora and Haru almost have sex but Haru starts crying over the fact that they are sibilings and how it is pretty unethical of them doing this, even though he loves her, and he says that they are going to have to be separated to go live with a relative, i forgot which either an uncle or something. 5. The Whole Swimming Situation I have provided some facts in my 2nd topic but yeah... in the anime it does not say that Sora could not swim, so it's not possible that she couldn't have brought her and Haru back to the top of the stairs, and if look at the scene where the camera zooms in out of their position, you can see the water and the stairs leading up to them. Anyways I can't believe that I just did this but I'm bored and there's nothing else to do for me atm lol and probs one of my friends my see this or something xD The whole incest thing is also a weird part of the story but it is basically the plot and the other episodes are what lead up to it, even though when I first heard of this show through a YT video and stuff and learned it contains incest o.0 So basically, they're not dead and I'm glad that Haru and Sora found happiness with one another and are starting a new life together and this is probably one of the most saddest anime's i've ever seen, fuck clannad lel, and i really did love it but there were some plotholes in it :P Anyways gl to Sora and Haru and I'm sad there's not season 2 :/ Cya! (ps I hope that O dont get trouble for this lol :/) |

| They can be dead or alive, there is not enough evidence to conclude either way. At first I thought this was just an incest anime, but it actually have lot more ecchi than i expected... way more. oh well it was still a somewhat interesting series, 6/10 |
Forgetful00May 26, 2014 7:31 PM
| True to the part where Haru basically fucks all the girls and then leaves them like 2-3 eps later But for the record, they're not dead and even if you read the VN and Manga you will see how they conclude with both of them, and there's like kinda of a sequel also(Haruka na Sora I think) which is an "update" on their situation after leaving :) |
| Kinda suprised that Sora has the same VA as Suou Amane and Kagami Sumika o_O As fro this series a lot of boring moments and incest is bad xD, the only unique thing is almost hentai scenes. 6/10 |
| I feel what you're trying to say, like at points the anime was really really slow and since I'm re-watching it it's like 10000x slower lol I didn't mind the incest but it is weird considering the fact I haven't watched anything like this before and I'm pretty sure other people could say the same thing but I just love Sora and I'm just glad she's happy and stuff xD |
| Thank god they didn't go the cliché way and killed the character off because "OMG WE CAN'T LOVE EACH OTHER IN THIS WORLD" romeo&juliet copy pasta, I would have probably giving it a 1/10 (no joke) ... edit:oh wait apparently they might have died according to some comment. Damn... edit2: oh well in VNDB there's the "Attempted suicide" tag after activating "Spoil me!" soooooo I'm gonna assume they didn't die in the end sadfacelv said: Kinda suprised that Sora has the same VA as Suou Amane and Kagami Sumika o_O As fro this series a lot of boring moments and incest is bad xD, the only unique thing is almost hentai scenes. 6/10 Really? I didn't notice LOL |

| They didn't ^ |
| Nao continues to prove to me that she's the best girl, being so understanding of Haru and Sora's incestuous love. She even helps him search the neighborhood for the girl Haru cheated on her with. Makes me dislike Haru even more for being such an asshole to her. The end of the Sora route wasn't so bad, though Haru really seemed to have a full-on mental breakdown this episode. I guess banging your sister will do that to you, lol. In retrospect it wasn't the worst arc (I like Akira but frankly her arc was the most boring), but I still think Haru's kinda a jerk. Even if I had to feel sorry for her after awhile. BTW, count me on the 'they're not dead' theory. They sent their friends a text message ... how are they going to do that if they're dead? It's an interesting theory but I don't see it happening. Overall, I liked the series. I loved how they got around the harem problem by letting each girl have her own arc. I wish more H-game adaptations would follow this formula, but so far as I know YnS is the only one to have done it. I was a bit disappointed with the Sora arc, but that's largely because I like Nao the best and I hated watching Haru sneak around on her. Nao giving them her blessing redeemed the finale in my eyes. Plus we got to have more funny and sexy stuff with Motoka. 8/10 |
| Welp, that's it guys. I didnt really liked Sora's arc and Sora herself. my score: 1st arc - 7/10 2nd arc - 3/10 3rd arc - 7/10 4th arc - 5/10 Overall, the series lacked depth in drama and the some conflicts were too easily resolved, well I cant really blame them, they only had 2 to 3 episodes to finish an arc. 7/10 Sora is a bitch. |

| Hahaha!!! Holy shit the face haruka made when he got caught. I just lost my shit when I saw it. So that's the famous "Caught banging my sister" face my friend kept telling me about. I must say it was worth watching the series just for that one scene. Lol. I wish I could use a picture of that face Haru made for my avatar. |
| Bad, but entertaining. Sora is a shitty female lead. Too possessive. |
