''[[Oretachi Nini Tsubasa wa Nai]]: Under the Innocent Sky'' starts in Yanagihara City, where three stories playing out in parallel. The first is Takashi Haneda, who has to deal with his little sister Kobato and Asuka Watarai, his girlfriend...maybe, all while dreaming of a fantasy land called Gretagard. The second is Shusuke Chitose, a freeter who's pals with Karuo Karube, the bartender at Alexander, a restaurant where he's in an unsteady relationship with a fellow employee, Hiyoko Tamaizumi. The third is Hayato Narita, who's captured the attention of Naru Ootori, younger sister of his acquaintance Kakeru, who's looking for her bike. What do these three have in common? Overseen by the mysterious DJ Condor, a story begins.
 
Originally a [[Visual Novel]] by Navel (''[[Shuffle]]'', ''[[Soul Link]]''), ''Ore-tachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai'' (''We Don't Have Wings''), was adapted into an anime in [[Spring 2011 Anime|spring 2011]].
Line 55:
* [[Gratuitous English]] <-> [[Gratuitous Japanese]]: One of the rare justifications for both tropes. Alice is trying to learn Japanese, but, as noted by Hayato, her grammar is still off. Over the course of the anime, she improves.
* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Takashi {{spoiler|after finding out that Gretagard doesn't exist. This leads him into an [[Angst Coma]] and it takes Asuka to [[Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!|beat it out of him.]] [[Crowning Moment of Funny|While the three other personalities]] ''[[Crowning Moment of Funny|including Karura]]'' [[Crowning Moment of Funny|get beaten up!]]}}
{{quote| '''[[Cloudcuckoolander|Karura]]''': ''[[Makes Just Asas Much Sense in Context|I want to eat an alligator!!!]]''}}
* [[Heroic Sociopath]]: Karura
* [[Hot Springs Episode]]: The OVA included with ''Oretsuba R''. The episode is titled "90% Increase in Skin", and they are not kidding.
Line 62:
* [[I Work Alone]]: Hayato tries to invoke this trope, but unfortunately for him, Naru, and later a lot of the gang members help him look for her bike, whether he wants them to or not.
* [[Large Ham]]: Itami Karura and Kakeru Otori embody this trope so much.
* [[Makes Just Asas Much Sense in Context]]: Episode 7.
* [[Mega Neko]]: Hiyori herself wears one, complete with attempts at [[Fan Service]] for Hayato, which only work for the viewer.
* [[Melee a Trois]]: What happens when Hayato attempts to stop a [[Mob War]] before it gets brutal. He ends up almost fighting against the leaders, before the leaders decide to retreat.
Line 68:
* [[Mob War]]: YFB and R-Wings are pretty much this.
* [[Motor Mouth]]: Miyako in episode 9, for quite a while. She does it again in episode 12. A far cry from her original [[The Quiet One|quiet]] persona.
* [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot]]: The [[Bonus Material|omakes]]. They combine several genres together (even though ''all of them'' are [[Fan Service]]), but have no relation to the plot. They could easily be made into their own series. For example, [[One Hundred Eight108]] [[Hot Teacher|Hot Teachers]] [[Lady of War|fighting off]] against each other using [[Improbable Weapon User|their teaching utensils]] to [[Serious Business|teach a class]]?!
* [[No Social Skills]]: Karura

Line 79:
* [[Shout-Out]]: DJ Condor: [[Turn a Gundam (Anime)|UNIVERRRRRRRRS-*cut off*]]
** There seem to be several [[Gundam]] shout-outs throughout the series.
*** Episode 10 had Karuo do a Newtype Flash in the style of UC Gundam as he communicated, (Telepathically) with Eriko, who herself did one in the style of a ''[[After War Gundam X (Anime)|Gundam X]]'' Newtype.
*** Episode 11 has what can be seen as a [[Mobile Fighter G Gundam (Anime)|Love-Love]] [[Colony Drop]].
** Before going [[Motor Mouth]], Miyako is a lot more like [[Haruhi Suzumiya|Yuki Nagato]].
** The use of televisions appears inspired by [[Persona 4]].
