A Bridge to the Starry Skies

About A Bridge to the Starry Skies

A Bridge to the Starry Skies (星空へ架かる橋) blends ecchi and romance by Doga Kobo and PRA (2011). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. The premise: Kazuma has moved to a small town in the country. On his first day at school, he crosses paths with Ui when he is lost his way.

Further in, they go to school together, but Kazuma accidentally slips and kisses Ui.... To make matters worse, Ibuki, Ui's close friend, sees it.... Well, what will happen to his new school life...?

As an ecchi title, fan-service and comedy are mixed into the main storyline. Voice work is led by Eriko Nakamura as Ui Nakatsugawa and Ringo Aoba as Ibuki Hinata. Think of it as a pick for mature viewers who are fine with suggestive content. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
