Introduction:-

Kazuma Hoshino is a high school student who, along with his younger brother, Ayumu, moves from an undisclosed city in Japan to the rural town of Yamabiko on account of Ayumu's asthma. While settling into their new surroundings the brothers become acquainted with several locals including Ui Nakatsugawa, Ibuki Hinata, the Toudou sisters and Madoka Koumoto, among others. The story details the brothers' adventures with their new friends

Plot/Summary :-

Kazuma Hoshino is preparing himself for a new stage of his life as a teenager. Because of his brother Ayumu’s weaker than average health, their parents thought it best for the family to move out from the city to a more rural environment. Now the two brothers are off to the Yorozuyo Inn where they’ll be staying until their parents can settle affairs back in the city and set up their new home.

Their arrival to the inn doesn’t go as planned though when they catch the wrong bus, wind up in the middle of nowhere, Ayumu gets his hat stolen by a wild monkey, and Kazuma gets lost in the woods trying to track the animal down. It all leads to a chance encounter with a spirited young girl named Ui, who Kazuma ends up accidentally falling onto and kissing while she tries leading him back to the bus stop. This hardly sits well with Ui’s friend Ibuki who swiftly kicks Kazuma and sends him on his way. Much to Kazuma’s continued horror, his bad luck is perpetuated at the inn thanks to its landlady Senka and her slightly perverted sense of humor, and then finding out that two of his classmates are the girls he embarrassed himself in front of back in the woods!

Quotes :-

Story :-

As it may seem fairly obvious from the picture that I have used above to open up this review, this is another ecchi, harem romantic comedy stories, with lots of fan service and romantic elements. I will explain some stuff later so let’s move onto the synopsis.

Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi revolves around Kazuma Hoshino, who has moved out into the country with his younger brother, as he meets and becomes close to the residents there. He makes a couple of guy friends, but meets a lot of new, interesting female friends with various personalities and traits. As the female characters get closer to Kazuma, they feel themselves starting to change feelings for him.

Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi is an anime based off the visual novel of the same name. I haven't played that visual novel, more specifically I don't play visual novels at all, so I cannot comment on the coherence of the adaptation. Instead, I am going to analyze and critique this anime as a standalone work.

Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi tells the story of two brothers who are in the process of moving homes. As they're looking for a place to stay, the older brother (Kazuma) gets lost in a forest. He meets a girl, and of course, he ends up "accidentally" kissing her. This is the beginning of the girl, Ui, and Kazuma's romantic relationship. They also happen to go to the same school; good lord, the coincidences. And that's about it. The entire story is about how Ui and Kazuma will manage to confess their love for each other; exactly why I give the story a "5". Not surprising, though, as this is a visual novel adaptation after all.

This isn't to say that the story is completely smooth as I made it out to be; there are a few edges in this anime's romance, it isn't just a straight line. In the end, you could see where the story was going, and the characters were fairly easy to read. To be honest, Hoshizora could've been something great if it weren't so linear. It has beautiful art, an amazing opening, and a likeable set of characters. It's just a shame that its story is so bland; don't expect too much when you're watching this anime. There is also never any sort of major conflict. Despite that, it is still a refreshing anime that you can unwind and relax while watching. Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi is not a bad anime in the slightest, and there are some bright moments within it. Overall, an enjoyable watch that is unfortunately shallow.

Conclusion :-

The biggest selling point of this anime is definitely the art style used as well as its clever use of drama; although it is mostly romance centered, it continues to use dramatic elements in it to create natural character development and plot development. If you dig your romantic comedies and dramas, then I definitely recommend this series to you.

Recommendation :-

Of course -,  Its an Harem anime.

My rcommendation is 9/10.

I strongly recommend it for Harem lover.
