I kinda agree with you. If all of the sex scenes were complete remove and making this a romance ecchi and harem anime (and not a borderline) like Amagami, this would have been appreciated more or at least make a diffence.

Why would there be a need for a 2nd season unless you want the same stories retold in better detail than the few episodes that was used for every arc or if you want the stories from the fandisc animated (which were in my opinion not that good).

Well, it may give the class rep and Motoka's friend to get a shot at Haru since they were wickedly shafted in the first story, especially the former-v-. When it comes to better detail, I'm just thinking since the fans the pairing of the twins more than any other pairing, I just figured they wanted to see more.

Dunno, I found the rational for not rebranding it as R-18 hilarious (SC-translation, because I'm lazy):

Come on, the only manga they have "rebranded" are shoujo that feature independent women and the saddest thing is that his "laws" are celebrated by feminists and those irresponsible self-proclaimed pedo-hunters, that equate their children's right with drawings |

I suspect the translation on Sankaku Complex is incorrect, rendering your image even more pointless than it already is. I don't think they are saying that the depiction was "socially acceptable", but rather that it was not pitched as socially acceptable. The fact that it was forbidden and wrong was a major theme of the work.
As for the sales, it was certainly one of the best-selling eroge adaptations in years, so I think their approach was arguably rewarded. If they had made it a "true R-18" show, we wouldn't have gotten even the 12 episodes we had, so I think it was better this way.

I feel as though that, after all the VN sales, Animé sales, and Manga sales this series had, saying that now it's acceptable, not so rejected, or however it's taken, I'm gonna go with Relentless' take, I don't really see a point to it. It came, it saw, it conquered. Most people wish there would be more of it, but sadly, there won't be for the time being.

So Artefact was accurate in translating the "infrequently" and "inexcessively"
As for snubbing hentai, you guys are assuming a hentai without the budget the anime had. The anime IMHO was very good, but it could have been better shouldn't it worry about self-censorship, and go all-out on its taboo themes with more realistic and graphic depictions... especially for the last two arcs and Motoka shorts. @relentlessflame: 冗談(= pointless talk)that's what jokes are... pointless and I hoped erroneously (again) harmless |

At the end of the day, I didn't find the depictions in the original eroge to be particularly "realistic or graphic", even though it obviously included full sex scenes. I think the anime did fairly well (most of the time) at keeping the story driving the narrative, and using those scenes to support the story.

There was another option for the Yosuga no Sora anime though, one that could have released full-on h-scenes AND have sold a lot. All they had to do would be to release uncensored, full on h-versions of the episodes (possibly in their own special collectible blu-ray set) after releasing the main series, and sit back and charge a good price while the slavering otakus lap it all up. Mind you, the deal in this case would be that they'd have to buy the main series blu-rays AND the full-on h-episodes separately if they wanted the complete package, but otakus have been known to shell out more money for even less value. I would agree with this; YnS was a groundbreaker in this regard for eroge-to-anime adaptations. It'll be interesting to see whether other would-be creators of eroge-to-anime adaptations will follow suit with the same or better level of quality. In some ways I think Amagami SS suffered for not going "all the way" in this one respect. |

You know, every time I got on this thread, I get like this wicked depression on me-v-;;. It's not because of the users here because what you guys say makes sense, it's because the fact that this made it to the older series section, and we'll never see another series like this one again .

I personally don't understand why seiyuus have to use pseudonyms for their H work. There's quite a lot of well-written eroge that involves voice work as serious and involved as any other "mainstream" production now, so why would segueing into that be looked down upon? Still, I wonder if the person who proposed the idea for the YnS anime's branching structure was duly awarded for this kind of innovation. It certainly contributed to the high sales for this series in Japan. |

There was one case I read, as an example, in the past about a very famous seiyuu during her time. I forgot the seiyuu's name, but I do remember she formed part of the Neon Genesis Evangelion's main voice cast at the time. When it was found that she also had done some roles in erotic H-Anime, she was terribly lambasted and there was a public outcry against her. It took about 10 years, quite more or less, so that public opinion could completely forget the whole incident. However, during all that time in between her career got both jeopardized and spiraled down. Reason why seiyuus have need and use for pseudonyms to prevent incidents like that one from ever materializing. |
