Yosuga no Sora Episode 10 Discussion

I'm well aware of that fact, TY for stating the obvious though. The reason I used "coherent" DOES apply to a certain case that I personally came across.



Care to explain where you're coming from with the anal sex? Because I don't see anywhere in this anime that could happen or see how it has anything to do with the discussing subject.... But considering that scenario, I'm more than certain that she'd gain more followers who are into such fetishes if that were the feature of her arc.



Yes; however, that relativism applies specifically in this case because a taboo is involved. They might not be entirely congruent but the taboo is a better explanation regarding the analyze of the rabid fanbase's behavior toward this particular "wincest" anime IMO



And in this specific context that revolves around this anime, that "satisfaction of a desire or need, either vicariously or through dreams" stems from the taboo itself. And maybe the looks factor too. Favoritism comes into play under such occurence.



Well, I honestly doubt that, especially when the "wincest" in question almost makes up all the hype about this anime. Taking that out and that'd be like any other cheesy romance that we have daily. Consequently, most folks will be enraged because their expectation (or W.F) of blood-related siblings doing each other, which mainly consists of their reason to bother with the anime itself, is not satisfied. And that, might lead to a certain drop (be it major or minor) in Sora's fanbase.



It's an assumption from my part since I'm too lazy to look up for specific info. What I mean is that your claim regarding childhood partners are the MAIN cause for their popularity might not be absolute as there are other factors going for those type of characters that deviate popularity from focusing entirely on that particular feature of "knowing each other since childhood". It may be 1/3 or 3/4 or 2/3, etc... Who knows, but at least it shows that the reason those girls are popular is NOT because of the single fact that they know the MC since birth.



The same can be said to newly developped romance, unlesss you can provide me specific sources with reliable data. Otherwise, it'd be a matter of personal interpretation as personally, from what I've seen in recent anime, the childhood friend has a better tendency to lose to the newly introduced heroine. And I infer from those cases that this hype about "knowing each other while growing up" is getting trite. However, it MUST be included due to the fact that most japanese kids don't get to know many people outside their district so that "childhood partner" is a good device for self-reflection. And self-reflection is one thing, but whether they will prefer a new girlfriend or stay with the old one is another story.



I don't wanna bother to go through those torturous eps just to find sauce to back up my arguments. From my memory, class rep is always around in every characters' arc too but I do remember Morishima better because her screen time is at least amusing compared to that of class rep's....



One might argue that since it's nearing the most anticipating arc, might very well promote the main heroine~

I agree with most things BitchMaster said.

Like i said in my previous post i think Sora gets more attention then she deserves.
And the fact is that she receives allot of positive commends while Kirino receives allot of negative commends.
Which i think is unjustified.
Sure some of this is because of my personal dislike towards Sora and sure Kirino does deserve some negative commends.
But fact is that Sora's personality and behavior is far worse then that of Kirino.
As i mentioned Sora is pessimistic and spoiled.
I have not seen her do a single thing herself and whenever she needs something or wants something done the first thing she does is start whining to Haru.
And when he does what she asks she doesn't even thank him or gives a negative reply.
Kirino is spoiled as well but she isn't pessimistic and unlike Sora does things herself and doesn't go to her brother every time she needs something.
She only asks for help from time to time and her brother even helps her when she doesn't ask, and she even thanks him for it from time to time.
And fact is she did achieve allot be herself without the help of others.
Sure Sora has a weak body but this doesn't mean she can sit on her bed all day and do nothing, there allot of people out there with a weak body that do everything they can to achieve things them self.
She might have a weak body bud i wont feel sorry for her all she does is lying on her bed all day well she could actually do something.
If she was in a wheel chair and could no do certain things because of it or the only thing she could not go out of her bed do to a medical condition then i might feel sorry for her but that isn't the case.

There is also a big difference in the brothers Kyousuke isn't such a pushover as Haru and actually does stand up to his little sister and others.
While Haru is just a easy pushover who can't say no.

As said Sora gets allot more attention because of her incestuous relationship with her brother.
Something Kirino doesn't have.
Incest is taboo and therefore shocking which is the reason Sora gets more attention then Kirino.
But if the roles where reversed Kirino would get more attention.
And i am almost positive that Kirino would be more popular then Sora if both of them where involved in a incestuous relationship.

It's true that Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai has a different audience but this doesn't change the fact about the personality of the characters.

About Morishima it's true that she gets more screen time them most of the characters in Amagami SS.
But she is one of those characters that is there to bring comic relief and she is often there during the moments when comic relief is needed.
Her air headed personality is perfect for this and she often appears to break up the serious mode with something funny.
