Yorito is downright obsessed with the sky. So much that his room's ceiling is a big collage of the sky, made with photos he has taken; he is willing to ditch classes just to lay on the school's roof, watching the sky (much to the chagrin of his friend Mana); he even forgets his sister Aono's birthday because in his mind there's nothing but sky, sky, sky.He's even willing to wake up at 4 AM just to take shots of the dawn sky. And that's how he meets Matsuri, a rather intriguing girl.From then on, Yorito is half-dragged into a story that spans centuries. A story filled with sadness, unforgettable sins, and dark secrets that are related to him more than he would like.Sola is a manga written by Naoki Hisaya (main writer of Kanon) and illustrated by Naru Nanao (designer of Da Capo), which was serialized in Dengeki Daioh from 2006 to 2008. It received a 13-episode anime adaptation (+ 2 bonus DVD episodes) which aired in 2007. Japanese fans chose it as the best anime of 2007, according to Spider Networks.The sky is a prominent theme, so expect plenty of Scenery Porn. | |

Make Them Rot: Matsuri has this power, and as long as she makes direct physical contact she can make nearly anything, from metal and stone to flesh and bone, rapidly decay. | |

Cursed with Awesome: The Yaka. In exchange for a weakness to sunlight, they get immortality, heightened strength and speed, and their own inherent gift. Matsuri explains that due to the fact that Yaka are the embodiment of human agony, sin and pain, such creatures are meant to always be alone. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
Sola (Manga) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: In the anime, after the two make a pact to save Aono, Yorito 'dies' protecting Matsuri from Aono. Matsuri sacrifices her life so that Aono may become human again. The rest of the normal cast forget Yorito, but Aono and Mana meet and become friends. Two tomato bean soup cans are on the table of the familiar park. The manga's ending shows how Yorito and Aono lived after Matsuri dies to turn Aono back to human. Yorito keeps up with his photography... and then disappears one day to join Matsuri, complete with ghost Matsuri making an appearance. Aono, in the aftermath of her brother's disappearance, has to cope and copes only after Mayuko tells her Matsuri's last message. It ends with Aono agreeing to attend Koyori's party, and we see the two tomato cans again. | |

Spell My Name with an S | |
Sola (Manga) / int_89a17726 | comment |
Spell My Name with an S: Applies to the title. While all Japanese sources insist on spelling it "Sola", given what the greatest symbolic focus of the show is, the title should probably be romanized as "Sora", which is the standard, accepted spelling of the word for "sky" in Japanese. The "Sola" spelling also works thematically as the feminine form of "alone" in various Romance languages. | |
