To the ones that guessed there would be magic involved in this they where right :)

It was another good ep. There were two scenes I liked a lot. Namely the one where Matsuri seems she's going to kiss Yorito and then she just pats him in the head (that just scored ^^); and the scene in the room was also very good IMO.

Somehow one thing Yorito said "I'll show you the sky someday" made me get the felling that Matsuri will die in the end. (the scene already crossed my mind with Matsuri vanishing will looking at a big blue sky). meh I'm prolly wrong....... -__-

i still don't get how this series will evolve?

i think it's just too... random? but the scene in the room was really touching... i wonder how matsuri is releated to yorito's sister.. seems like there's some kind of connection between them.

Doesn't seem too random to me really. But yeah, there probably will be some sort of connection between them, as well as with the little box-girl.

On a side note, I'm surprised the sub came out so fast.

After watching this episode, it reminded me of how annoying 15 year olds can be. Other than a few moments, it was pretty much a boring episode. It needs to pick up.

who did you find annoying? or was it all of them?

anyway, this anime panders to the eroge crowd a little too much. I mean sure, it's from the ppl who created Kanon and Da Capo, and sure, it gets laughs out of someone like me when you have Yorito next to Matsuri on the bed all the time, and this:

M: "Is there anything else you would like me to do?"
Y: "But..."
M: "There's nothing you want? There has to be something right?"
Y: "Well, there is but..."
*awkward silence*
M: "...ecchi" " I know! I'll cook you a meal!"

rofl at that. that was awesome. so i may enjoy this but i'm afraid viewers less familiar with this niche would be turned off.

all in all I'd like this series to move a little quicker, since it doesn't have 24 episodes to slice-of-life around like Kanon did - it's only got 12 eps to work with so something needs to happen soon.

and it's a little early for this but wth lol:

tiers: Matsuri (teh Mamiko) > Koyori (teh awesome loli) > Mana (teh childhood friend) > Aono (teh Yuki clone with currently untapped potential) > Mayuko (the dumb Rozen Maiden ripoff)

It was just Yurito. I'm liking his character less and less.
As for my tier, its the exact same as Kei's

yea same here. thought he'd be a bit different from typical harem lead but so far the only diff is his love of the sky.

Yeah, I pretty much came to the same conclusion in the first episode after that first scene where Matsuri is surrounded in the sky. The second time this happened as you mentioned above even more so justifies this. But we'll see what happens.

Just checked this out tonight. I've gonna give it a few more eps before I make any decisions. The end of ep 1 became pretty interesting, and ep 2 opened up a few more things that gave it more potential. Looking forward to seeing just who/what Matsuri is.

this is the only show Xinil and I were skeptical about after beginning...

basically, by the time the end of the first episode was coming around, we were bored out of our minds. It did have a bit of a save that made us actually interested right at the very end.

episode two pulled us in a little bit, and now we're curious, so we'll definitely stick it out for a few more episodes to see where this is going before final decisions.

but currently, this seems the most likely series to get dropped so far out of the stuff we're currently watching.

(thank god for the sexual innuendo so we could keep the jokes going though)

I finally watched the first 2 episodes of this over the weekend. I have to totally agree with Koreth on this one (and I hate it when that happens.) Episode 2 piqued my interest somewhat, so I'll continue watching to see where it goes, but I'm not completely impressed right now...

...although KawaiiNinja is LOVING it... of course... her reasons for loving it, I think, tend to center more around the bishounen factor of the lead male character... **sigh**... ::rolls eyes:: fangirls...

LOL... yeah... but she has odd taste in most of the characters she becomes a fangirl of... lol... not the usual "bishounen" types... It was funny (and she's gonna kill me for this)... I swear... the kid was on screen... for the first time... less than 2 seconds... she let out a little "meep" (her equivalency of a fangirl squeal)... and I knew then... that she was going to enjoy this series... regardless... ::rolls eyes again::

So she's going to vanish under the sun? What is it? Night Calamity? What a weird naming. If they call them vampires, maybe I'll be more optimistic in this show. But, yeah ok. I'll just watch it for the sake of downloading it. X_X

Say, aren't ALL Sky premises epic? ~Matsuri's my fav char yet from Sola!
btw, isn't the tittle "Sola" an engrish take on the japanese word for "sky"? EPIC! hahaha ^^
Plot seems interesting, and the sky premise works for me very well.
And the main famale lead(?) is cute ~nuff said.

So, she's a yaka. I assume that the guy and the other girl are also yaka because I haven't seen them in the daylight. It's also weird that she lives in a box.

It's strange that the sister also doesn't show in day light. She even told Yurito not to open the curtains...

It was a pretty good episode. The story seems promising. I feel like there will be some major drama between siblings over that girl.

So is she some type of vampire?

I don't understand how this is too slow? Sure it's not your fast paces action show, but this is trickling along quite nicely considering the genre it's in.

I don't see this anime that bad. I mean I don't think you can really jude something by just watching 2 episodes because in those episodes they just kinda introduce you to the characters and their situations.
I loved the parts that everybody are saying and all.

the male lead reminds me a lot of the male lead from Air, only idfference was this guy loves the sky, and the other one was a puppet master guy and he traveled a lot.

I feel the slowness of the episode is a positive rather than a negative. Being in these types of genre, the plot have to be slow so we can enjoy and sometime comprehend the scenes.

Interesting development so Matsuri is not a human but some sort of immortal being that can't live in the sun? Also that Blond Haired lolita might be the same case as her as she is always cased in a box and we only see her out night?

Interesting so far the ending sure was sweet, lets see what's next!
