Yosuga no Sora: In Solitude, Where We Are Least Alone

Yosuga no Sora: In Solitude, Where We Are Least Alone

Introduction

Due to a sudden accident, twins Haruka and Sora Kasugano have lost both of their parents. Starting their lives anew, they return to their childhood home—living once again in the rural, quaint town like they did four years ago. However, revisiting such a nostalgic place also means recalling all the memories the two of them made together, be it those that gave them blissful joy or those that made them suffer painful sorrow. Meeting both old acquaintances and new companions alike, the story of Haruka and Sora only gets more convoluted as their lives are slowly influenced by different acts of love, friendship, envy—and perhaps even lust.

An anime that is immortal with time not because it is good but because of the controversy, a masterpiece, one of the best anime, the scenes that have become legendary in the film industry, an anime that seems to come from a visual novel, here is an introduction: Yosuga no Sora: In Solitude, Where We Are Least Alone Adapted from the visual novel of the same name by Sphere, directed by Takeo Takahashi, who direct the hit "Spice and Wolf" and... Citrus. Although it has been released for a long time, somehow its fandom has never died and there are still a few new viewers. Especially for those who have watched and argued with each other about the quality/content of the anime. Haruka and Sora are two siblings who have been together since childhood. When the younger one was in high school, their…

One day they told me that an anime can't change a person, but... is that true? I used to be an extroverted person, full of friends and always making new ones. But everything changed when I was 14, and I know what you must be thinking: "What happened? Was it just adolescence?" No, my friend, it wasn't that. It was something much worse. Something that... ruined my life. It all started on January 15th, 2018. I was determined, there was no turning back. The warnings were everywhere: "Don't do this," "You're going to regret it," "We're telling you for your own safety." But I, stubborn as always, ignored them. And the pain came with an intensity I could never imagine. With every second, a tightening sensation in my stomach consumed me. With every minute, a piece of my soul seemed to be rip…

Ok so after all these years of this anime I doubt that anyone is in need of a review for this, most of them already saw it. For the new weebs who just started, I doubt they will be looking at mal's review as there is youtube reviews and many senpai weebs out there like us. So I am just writing this as a reminder to myself "Why do I like this anime and what I dislike about it " And if this helps anyone out there then I will be glad. [Don't worry no spoilers ahead] I rewatched this anime for 3 times now, even remember the 1st time I watched it had goosebumps and chill I couldn't forget for weeks. The reason why this anime is good because >Awsome animation >Perfect character design >perfect and high rural bg (back ground) that goes with the story >Mesmerising story that soothens one's mi…

Once again, I'm reviewing another garbage incest anime. Why do I keep doing this to myself? I have no idea honestly. This time I'll be looking at Yosuga no Sora, an adaptation of a shitty visual novel that for some reason was helmed by the director/writer duo that brought us Spice and Wolf! So why on Earth is there SOO much brother/sister incest media in Japan? I've thought a lot about this question over the years and I have a theory. Japan has one of the lowest birthrates in the world. Unsurprisingly, there are many single child households. For some of these geeky, horny, only sons there is an appeal in the cute little sister character. Mostly because they have no idea what it's actually like to have a little sister. In these fantasies, the little sister is the ultimate example of a non…

It is the atmosphere of this show that I love from the bottom of my heart. And that could not have been done without the minor hentai. All anime need to have its audience keep watching the show. For some anime, it's the story. For others, 'ecchi.' For this show, it was probably the minor hentai. Because this anime already had an aspect to keep its viewers glued to the screen, it didn't have to rely on some obvious and stupid fanservice, nor did it have to try to put in a plot twist just to keep it interesting. Because the life of a hentai is its art, the art of the whole show was great. The sound was also splendid, and I'm sure anyone who's watched this show would at least agree on that point. These two plus the countryside setting make the atmosphere of this show one of the best in the…

Incest without guilt would be like sausages without mustard. If you like incest romance, it’s definitely worth watching. I watched the show then read the visual novel so I’ll include some comparison in here for those who are interested. Premise: Boy and girl twins, Haruka and Sora; their parents died. They move into their gandpa’s house in the countryside(granpa is dead). They used to visit Granpa a lot. Lots of girls in this town like Haruka because he is pretty. Omnibus romance ensues. Haruka and Sora try to keep a tight lid on what’s going on between them, but the opening kinda gives it away. Characters: Akira is an energetic and really nice and sociable shrine maiden with family issues, which she is an orphan so… In the visual novel she’s a much bigger presence to be honest. No mat…

I just want to start off by saying that "YES, this anime does contain mild sex scenes and incestuous themes", but if you're comfortable enough with your own insecurities and own ideals, you should still find this to be an enjoyable anime. After all, this is not the first nor the last anime that will contain such said themes. As a person with a little sister, I do get uncomfortable with themes like incest because I love my sister, but I'm not physically attracted to her at all. Anyway, now that I've got THAT out of the way, I'll keep this review short and simple. Story (8/10) The main story is told through the perspective of Haruka Kasugano, a male high school student whose parents have deceased. Now all alone with his twin sister, he deals with a series of different relationships with d…

What can I say about Yosuga no Sora without wanting to bash my head on my keyboard with rage? Well it was a Japanese visual novel, starring the male lead, Haruka, three girls from his childhood and his sister. I think you know where this is going... Story: The story starts out with Haruka and his little sister, Sora as they go back to their childhood village due to their parent's deaths. Along the way they meet with three girls, Nao, Akira, and Kazuha, all of whom know Haruka from childhood. Throughout the series it shows how Haruka and Sora settle into the village and the four girl's lust for Haruka, since he is, of course, the main character. As you can see, the story is typical harem fodder, but this show likes to take it the extra mile by having only one other male character and he g…

I think a more appropriate name for this series, to try to avoid being profane, would be "The Screwing Haru Show" considering how this show is set. Pretty much, the series is set up in several arcs that involve male lead Haruka hooking up with one of several girls, resolving some sort of dramatic element with them and then inevitably having intercourse with them at the end of the arc with events reset afterward to feature the cycle repeating with another girl acquainted with Haruka. The series is pretty much an excuse to have Haruka engage in softcore sexual action with the "girl of the arc" as the personalities of each gal are pretty archetypal and plot scenarios being anything you would see done to death from an eroge game. The show is so ignorant of providing enough fleshing out and dev…

First of all, lets make things clear. THERE ARE SEX SCENES WITHIN THIS SERIES!! and this component usually makes people want to simply watch this series as a hentai. If you are planning on doing so, you will be trading a GREAT anime with a HORRIBLE hentai because those scenes are short and not very exciting. Instead, the sex scenes create an unique mood for the story development. Story 9/10 Yosuga no sora was originally a PC visual novel, this means that the story cannot possibly lack content. The story is very unique, instead of having a million girls liking the main character at the same time, the story focuses on one heroine for a few episodes then goes back to a "save point" and starts a new story with the next one. I have to split the art part into two. General art (how the charac…

I love 'Yosuga no Sora'. Be it the soft-hentai or if its the story itself. Many people cannot get over the fact that there is lack of character development and class and as such. But, I don't think that is the main point of 'Yosuga no Sora'. Its last episode especially. It lets an individual judge what is 'Right' and what is 'Wrong'. To be judged by others that it is 'Wrong' or to stay true to yourself. After all, it is 'Incest'. Not every individual is able to adapt to the idea itself. But, the irony comes in whereby, "Is it wrong to stay true to whom you love?" Or is it 'Right' to lie to yourself and be judged 'Correctly' by society itself. Not everyone is capable of answering the above question or even comfortable with it. That's where the anime also comes in, as it refines and i…

At first sight, many people might turn away in disgust when finding out the anime includes incest and softcore, while disregarding all other aspects of the story. However Yosuga no Sora is a genuinely enticing drama that, when looked at with an unbiased and thoughtful perspective, displays a heartwarming drama (One of the best in my opinion, challenging Clannad). The story separates into four arcs, where Haruka, the main character, courts one for each main female character: Episode 1,2,3,4 for Migiwa; Episodes 1,2,5,6 for Akira; Episodes 1,2,7,8,9 for Nao; and the main storyline 1,2,7,10,11,12 for Sora. This is not just some typical harem where the main character is just simply infatuated by each girl in their respective arc. There is a deep, thorough and complex story and personality beh…

Who is to say who we can and can not love? Normally I never really feel the pull to review a series, but not even finishing the series less then 10 minutes ago, I really felt I should write a review. Please note this is my first review, so either negative or positive feedback is greatly appreciated. Now, I'm not going to lie, the first thing that pulled me into Yosuga no Sora was the fact there were twins and incest involved. Incest in anime and manga has always been one of my guilty pleasures so I really couldn't help but watch it. I came into this anime not expecting a lot and boy, did it surprise me. The first thing that caught my eye was the art and animation. It just seemed so real. The characters moved.. swiftly. The characters and the background had such a real feel to me that I…

I am at lost for words for this anime.. Hmm.. Give me a moment. Ok now, I was expecting this to be a harem themed anime but unfortunately, the whole "Give each girl a seperate arc" theme that Amagami SS brought in ruined the whole harem genre. However, at least this new style killed many "THIS IS GOING TO END LIKE SCHOOL DAYS!" trolls along with it. Story 6/10 Believe it or not this actually have a story to it! And a pretty decent one too! However if you're a pacifist then Im sure you'll enjoy it because it deals with a lot of negative emotions surrounding the characters. And did I mention Incest? Yes, like many Autumn line up this year, this one is incest themed, but only for the final arc. Most probably if you read the other reviews, they would have given a low rating due to "promotin…

I was first drawn to Yosuga no Sora by its poster. It stood out in the Fall 2010 anime preview, where every other series used every color of the rainbow to grab the audience's attention, this series had a rather simple depicting of Haru and Sora under a blue sky. The expressions of the characters reminded me a bit of "ef - a tale of memories", "True Tears" and other romantic anime that weren't also part comedy. My favorite genre is romance and I had high hopes going into this series. Unfortunately in this case, the old axiom of 'never judge a book by its cover' proved itself true. ====== Story ====== When I read the series synopsis, I came in expecting a serious story, perhaps even tragic in its setup. In contrast, the problems the characters dealt with in the series felt very trivial,…

'Yosuga no Sora' ('Sora the Blood Relative') is an anime adaptation for an eroge. Like any sane person, I don't support incest nor particularly have an infatuation with sister characters (although I find it funny when sisters get raped in hentai), but decided to check this out because I have seen an extremely moving and thought-provoking Japanese incest movie before: 'Boku wa Imoto ni Koi wo Suru' (2007) Unfortunately, this was an extremely shallow series in comparison. I'm sure we're all wondering what those insect antennas are doing on almost every character's hair in this series. It must have surpassed 'Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto' as series with dumbest ahoge in history. But other than that, the characters are very visually attractive, and hands and feet are drawn with more deta…

Normally I don't review series, even if I really love them, but one very negative review on this series that I bumped into prompted me to want to give it as much credit as possible. I am a 18 year old girl. I love anime, but I'm not anti-social or any other stereotype that really fits otaku. I have plenty of friends who think anime in general is weird. And I, possibly the most 'normal' out of all my otaku friends, LOVED this anime. The art is amazing. especially when contrasted with the characters. I adored how they made the lead male a bishi without having his character be a total soft-hearted pussy, like they do in almost every harem anime I've ever seen! That being said, normally I don't even go for harem anime, but this one was very... sincere? I think that's a good way to put it.…

Ok, before I start making my review on Yosuga no Sora, I like to point out that this is indeed my first review on an anime. Hopefully my review about this anime will have an effect on whether you watch it or not; and hopefully you don't, because believe me; youfre just wasting your time. Also, I recommend those who actually "liked" this anime to not read this review, it'll probably just turn your day upside down. Overall, this anime is one of the worse anime I have ever seen, only topped by School Days. I personally feel sorry for the producer who released and aired this anime. They must have either been drunk and got tricked into airing/releasing this, or must have run out of ideas and had no other choice but to summit this. Story: 2/10 Now if you've read the synopsis you get a little s…

What is right and wrong? Who decides this anyway? When the time comes, will you do things based on what you think is right, or what other people say is? When I first started watching this, it was some form of a "guilty pleasure" decision, while I thought it was going to be just another under-developed hentai (or half-hentai, as I used to call it). I was very pleasantly surprised. Believe me, this is NOT a hentai. Yes, the main character does have sex with multiple girls over the course of the series, but these scenes have a meaning. More important thing is how they got to it, the story behind each girl, more than just the act of having sex. This was made after a visual novel, so it's reasonable that every girl gets a story. Still, in this anime, stories are seperated from each other and…
