I actually liked Yosuga no Sora quite a bit. Although I started watching it mostly just because I liked the music and because of the pure WTF value that the first episode had, by the end of it I found a certain value in the story.
The main reason for that is that you would be hard pressed to find any other type of media that's willing to touch 'that' particular theme, and even when anime does go into 'that' its practically always played for laughs or positively promoted, and almost always accompanied by some form of cop-out about non-blood relation.
YSN dosent do that though. It's willing to go the more dangerous route and delve deeply into the taboo as it exists in reality. While many would find the explicit nature of some of the content distasteful, the fact that its willing to take the theme its portraying to the proper extreme is somewhat admirable.
Granted, most of the story is pretty dull and is borderline hentai, so its only really the first and last couple of episodes that I actually base my opinion of this show off.
@Extreme133: Just wanna correct that series breakdown a little bit. Technically, Haru is only ever with one of the girls in the series, since the story is told with a timeloop at the resolution of each individual character arc. Just wanted to correct that since what you wrote makes it sound like School Days lol.
