Line 3: {{quote\|''"Your name is Sora... Because you're just like the sky... Beautiful, dignified, and full of life."''\|'''Sora's parents'''}} {{quote\|''"Father... Mother... The sky... Isn't beautiful at all... I want to clean up this sky!"''\|'''Sora'''{{spoiler\|, ''Accleration of SUGURI''{{'}}s ''sora'' teaser}}}} '''''sora''''' is a [[Prequel]] to the fan-acclaimed [[~~Suguri~~SUGURI]], a horizontally-scrolling doujin [[Shoot'Em Up]] by Orange_Juice released during Comiket 78 for Windows PC. Just like its predecessor, it stars a title protagonist, Sora, who must fight her way through waves of [[Mecha-Mooks]] with a boss waiting at end of each stage. ''sora'''s storyline takes place on a once peaceful world being ravaged by an ongoing war between humans and altered humans. It was a war that brought chaos, death, destruction, and the end of any moral values that will ultimately bring an end to all life on Earth. Sora, one of the most powerful altered-humans ever created, is unwilling sent into battle to settle the score. Like Suguri before her, Sora can amass a large arsenal of weapons at her disposal, ranging from [[Ray Gun\|beam rifles]], [[Grenade Launcher\|bazookas]], [[Laser Blade\|energy swords]], and even a pile bunker thrown in for good measure. The game maintains its trademark dashing and lock-on shooting gameplay, but this time Sora's able to three weapons instead of two (generally an energy weapon, a ballistics weapon, and a close-range weapon). The game also improved on its combo-scoring system and adds more emphasis on funneling through enemy fire to restore lost life energy and building up energy for your [[Limit Break\|Hyper Attacks]]. An English-translated version of ''sora'' has been released on June 1, 2012 and it's currently available through GamersGate. Surprisingly, this was not localized by Rockin' Android, the same translators of ''SUGURI'', but rather by ΩTH as it involves use of such terms as "[[Mega Man X\|reploids]]" when the characters were originally referred to as "altered humans," as well as a few [[Dub Name Change\|Dub Name Changes]]. Like ''SUGURI'', ''sora'' was followed up with a [[Shoot'Em Up]]-[[X Meets Y\|meets]]-[[Fighting Game]] with ''Acceleration of SUGURI 2'' released a year later during Comiket 80 in 2011. The game features both the heroines and boss chacters of their respective game as playable characters, a Story Mode<ref>(which wasn't added until v1.3)</ref>, Arcade Mode, local and online Versus Mode, and notability borrows a few other mechanics from ''[[~~Senko no Ronde (Video Game)\|~~Senko no Ronde]]''. During it's initial release however, lacked certain key originally planned for the game and suffered from character balance issues. Thankfully, the Orange_Juice took action and fixed many of the game's issues with update patches. ''sora'''s official Japanese website can be viewed [http://daidai.moo.jp/sora/soramain.html here] and its English website can be viewed [http://daidai.moo.jp/sora/soramain_english.html here]. Acceleration of SUGURI 2's Japanese website can be viewed [http://daidai.moo.jp/aos2/aos2.html here]. ~~----~~ ~~=== These games provide examples of: ===~~ {{tropelist}} * [[Action Girl]]: Sora, rather she likes it or not. * [[Advancing Wall of Doom]]: Stage 4's boss, Sham, uses this as part of her attack patterns. Line 34 ⟶ 33: * [[Cute Little Fangs]]: Tsih has them in ''Acceleration of SUGURI 2''. * {{spoiler\|[[Defeat Means Friendship]]: In a similar fashion to the original ''SUGURI''; Sora and Suguri quickly made up after their scuffle during the events of the [[True Final Boss]] battles.}} * [[Downer Ending]]: {{spoiler\|The game ends with Sora slowly plummeting back to Earth, with hopes that the skies above will clear up after stopping Starbreaker from unleashing an [[Earthshattering Kaboom]] [[Taking You ~~With~~with Me\|as a last-ditch effort to destroy Sora]] along with the planet.}} ** {{spoiler\|[[Golden Ending]]: During the EX Stage, Sora notices the sky is still black and toxic while descending to Earth, realising her efforts of trying to save the Earth are for naught. She finds Hime and Suguri on Earth and [[Ax Crazy\|blames them]] for the fighting that ruined the world then proceeds to attack them. Once the fighting was over, Suguri reveals to Sora that in the end, she saved the world and the sky has returned the beautiful clear blue color she once remembered from her childhood.}} * [[Dub Name Change]]: In ΩTH's English localization of ''sora'', the names changes as follows: Tsih's name was changed to '''Telos''', Sham was changed to '''Siri''', and Nath was changed to '''Nadius'''. Line 45 ⟶ 44: * [[Highly-Visible Ninja]]: Mira. * [[Humongous Mecha]]: Nath pilots one. * [[~~Improbably-~~Fundamentally Female Cast]]: To a similar extent of ''SUGURI''. * {{spoiler\|[[Kick the Dog]], [[Kick Them While They Are Down]]: This happens to Nath in ''sora'' by Starbreaker after Sora defeats her.}} * [[Kill It ~~With~~with Fire]]: The Flamethrower. * [[Laser Blade]]: Sora can use one, and she knows how to use it. * [[Lightning Gun]]: The Shock weapon.
