I've been meaning to ask; why does Tomoya call Akio "ossan"?
I'm not sure what exactly it means, but I'm guessing it's a contraction of "otousan". This would imply a certain closeness in their relationship than should be the case, almost as if Tomoya were regarding Akio as a father...or even a father-in-law. 0_o |

Ossan is the abreviation of oji-san, not oto-san. Basically, it is kinda a familiar way to adress to him, because using aniki/(o)nii-san would be quite illogic here.
The reason behind it is because Akio is also quite "familiar" with him as welm, using teme (rude "you", much more than "omae", but not as offensive as "kusama") and kozo (brat/kid). Their relationship is quite special, as they respect each other, but they certainly don't want to show that. Hence, they are using some teasing familiar way to adress each other (as normally, the above words would be rude/offensive in a lot of cases)

So, is the Kotomi arc the only arc I can safely play in the game without spoiling the events of the future parts of the anime and ensuring that I will be able to play the full game? (Since not doing Koumura directly after Fuuko apparently cuts out two scenes?)

No, don't worry. You can do Fuuko's route without spoiling yourself anything about Koumura's route. As I said, they are independent. Take it as Kyou, Nagisa and Ryou intervention in Kotomi's route. They don't affect each other.
