A Bridge to the Starry Skies
星空へ架かる橋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!Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi finds Kazuma adapting to his new school, dealing with the multiple women who have entered his life, providing emotional support for his younger brother, and coping with living with his new landlady. However, for some reason, something about this place is bringing whispers of the past into Kazuma's mind. Small flashes back to a more innocent time and a friendship long forgotten. What could this déjà vu mean?

The ending is literal trash.
Ended up with the most annoying character.
Ui gives me cancer.

I really loved the animation in the, really nice colours. Although the story and character development were pretty awful although this anime did make me laugh at some points. If like me this animation is your thing go watch Shuffle!..better story. One of the funniest things I've ever seen. Plus a good story a good deep character development.
P.S There are some titty shots ;).
I may add there are some titty shots ;).

So this is my first review, i will be looking at A bridge to the Starry Skeis.
First of if you don´t like harems then this anime is not for you!
Story:
The story starts out pretty promising the main character Kazuma and his little brother Ayumu Moved away from the big city because of the poor health of Ayumu but this subject is never touched again in a big way which is disappointing to say the least! after this there is not allot of story it almost feels a little bit episodic. It's also very clear who or main character is liking the most.
Animation:
The animation is the best thing about this show i think it looks very good the character design is really nicely done with a few exceptions but it's still a good anime to look at.
Sound:
All i can say sound is decent it's not memorable but it's pretty good. The opening and ending is pretty good it's pretty catchy if you watch more episodes in a row.
Character:
The characters where interesting but you never really got to see them it felt a bit rushed to me and i wanted to know more about some of the characters that where way more interesting the the girl he ended up with. But still the characters all have a good back story I'm just disappointed that we could not see more character development.
Enjoyment:
So, overall.. i enjoyed it but certainly not as much as i was thinking i would going into this anime i just watched this to kill some time i would not really recommend this if you are not into Harem i really like that genre so for me it was not that bad but for people who are not into that i would not recommend this anime at all!

Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, A Bridge to the Starry Skies gave a promising start but as it progressed it came out to be a generic harem. After reading the synopsis i thought it might be something different from usual harem but after first two episodes the quality really started to deteriorate.Story: 6Story has nothing new to offer and is highly predictable in fact the synopsis given for this anime itself tells the whole story.Art: 9It has a high quality art and you can watch this anime for it.Sound: 9Sound is also one of the positive aspects of this anime. Starting theme is really a nice one.Character: 7It has all the characters of a classic harem. Male protagonist is somewhat better in the sense that he is not indecisive so it is not as frustrating as other harems turn out to be.Enjoyment: 7Though an average anime but enjoyed it since i like animes of this genre.Overall 7:It is a lighthearted anime and does not get tense at any point. So if you are bored of watching serious animes and just want some typical harem, itchy, romance you can watch it. But don't watch just for romance genre as it never gave that feeling of a romance anime.
