Yosuga no Sora Ep. 8: Bratty sisters represent.

What a brat.

To recap, we saw the start of Nao’s story in the last episode. Nao thinks Haruka hates her for stealing his virginity, but it turns out she merely jumped to conclusions. As always, assumptions making an ass out of everyone is always the fallback for lazy writers.

Haruka and Nao find themselves holding hands at the start of this episode, much to Sora’s dismay. Things only escalate from there when Sora walks in on the couple having sex (apparently not the first time she’s done it either). In retaliation, she decides to throw a tantrum and waste food (delicious curry too) while Haruka stands there like a wounded puppy.

Since it’s becoming increasingly unlikely that anyone’s going to snap and murder the cast of this anime like I’ve been begging since the start of the series, I must ask… are we supposed to sympathize with Sora? No, seriously — and what’s with all the other demanding, spoiled imoutos seemingly plaguing anime nowadays? Is this supposed to be compelling? Endearing? How do people watch these ‘little princesses’ boss others around with their screechy, high-pitched voices and not feel disgust?

Why doesn’t anyone have any damn guts in this anime? Why doesn’t Haruka defend his girlfriend? Standing in the doorway, with his half-undressed girlfriend limping home in one direction and his reprehensible sister in the opposite direction, Haruka predictably tucks his tail between his legs (in more ways than one) and follows Sora like the dog that he is. Forget personality because Haruka doesn’t even have that; he is objectified as a gutless, whimpering dick. He is just a tool in this anime, and his sole purpose is to fuck his way through the stories one girl at a time.

And speaking of wusses, Nao isn’t off the hook either. Why doesn’t she defend herself instead of just crying?

Instead, the pathetic couple seeks Sora’s forgiveness and acceptance as if she’s a parent who needs to condone her son’s love. Haruka’s tactic is to take the spoiled sister… and spoil her even more.

Early in Kuragehime, despite the Nunz being rude and obnoxious to Kuranosuke, he just laughs it off and even brings them food as some act of repentance. Once again in anime, someone else (Sora) misbehaves, and everyone just grins and bears it with a smile. Stand up for yourself, Christ.

As an aside, I’ll probably do away with the big updates ’cause they never seem to publish properly on aggregators. I have no clue why either.

      It’s actually funnier than Kiss x Sis if only unintentionally. First, when he was banging the Nao girl, he had this dumb sheepish look on his face:

      Shit, both their expressions during coitus were ridiculous. Then, as he turns and notices his sister watching them, he continues to thrust away without a care in the world. The anime then does a jump cut to Sora kicking his girlfriend out so we have no idea how long he continued to rail away at her with the twin sister watching.

    Hahaha the comments and reactions to this episode seem to be going in totally opposite directions. There are those fully in the Sora camp (like me), and those supporting Nao. I can see both sides of the story though. In my opinion, Sora, Nao, and Haru all did various things wrong to escalate the situation to this point. It’s not like Sora’s being a bitch for the sake of being a bitch *Cough* Kirino *Cough*, she has some serious issues against Nao in particular. If it was Kazuha or Akira’s curry, she’d eat it up with pleasure. For reasons of my own, I actually sympathized with Sora when she dumped that Curry down the drain. Although it still hurt to see such delicious looking food go to waste.

    -THIS IS PURELY MY OPINION< DONT READ IF DONT LIKE-
    Nao is totally at FAULT. AT such a young age she came over and had sex with little HARU, HOW COULD SHE. and poor Sora was watcing HER ONLY RELATIVE,ONLY BROTHER having sex! PLEASE Think in her shoes. SHE ONLY has her brother and TRUST me, Sisters and Brothers have a STRONG BOND. To Sora, her brother meant everything to her! HOW would you feel if some stupid girl like NAO, came and steal ur brother away!. It makes pure sense she ONLY wanted to eat her brother's curry and NOT the curry prepared by that stupid NAO. The constant jealousy and anger portrayed by Sora in the various episodes are TOTALLY realistic of a REAL younger sister. I can totally understand Sora. That was really the last straw when NAO ONCE AGAIN had sex with Haru. I AM SO GLAD SORA threw her out of the house.
    Deep down, all little sisters love their big brothers dearly, sure it may not be of a BG relationship, but it is even greater than that with the memories of childhood.
    -Waiting for HARU x Sora arc! ^-^-
