'''''sora''''' is a {{prequel}} to the fan-acclaimed {{SUGURI}}, a horizontally-scrolling doujin ShootEmUp by Orange_Juice. Just like it's predecessor, it stars a title protagonist, Sora, who must take part of a war between humans and replouds. Like Suguri (the heroine of the first game), Sora can amass a large arsenal of weapons at her disposal, ranging from [[RayGun beam rifles]], [[StuffBlowingUp bazookas]], [[LaserBlade energy swords]], and even a pile bunker thrown in for good measure. The game maintains its trademark dashing and lock-on shooting gameplay, but also adds more emphasis on grazing bullets and attacks to restore lost life energy and building up energy for your [[LimitBreak Hyper Attacks]].

* ApocalypseHow: The war between humans and reploids brought destruction to Earth as it made the air to support any lifeforms toxic and inhabitable.

The game was first released for Windows PC during the 78th summer Comiket of 2010. Just like ''SUGURI'', ''sora'' was followed up by a Shoot 'em Up-[[FightingGame Fighting game]] with ''Acceleration of SUGURI 2'' released during the 80th summer Comiket of 2011. ''Acceleration of SUGURI 2'' not only featured characters from ''sora'' as playable characters, but also the characters from ''SUGURI'' as well. An English-translated version of the game is expected to arrive in June 1, 2012.

* MeaningfulName: Sora's name is referring to the word "Sky" and how beautiful it is, although it doesn't like it in the game [[spoiler:at first; After the battle with Hime and Suguri in the EX Stage, the black and toxic skies returns to its beautiful, clear blue color again]].

''sora'''s storyline takes place in a once peaceful world being ravaged by an ongoing war between humans and reploids. 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 for the planet. Sora, a powerful combat-ready reploid with near-human emotions, is unwillingly sent into battle to settle the score.

* [[spoiler:DefeatMeansFriendship: In a similar fashion to the original ''SUGURI''; Sora and Suguri and made up after their scuffle during the events of the TrueFinalBoss battles.]]

** [[spoiler:GoldenEnding: During the EX Stage, Sora notices the sky is still black and toxicated while descending to Earth, realising her efforts of trying to save the Earth are for naught. She finds Hime and Suguri on Earth and [[AxCrazy 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.]]

* LaserBlade: Sora can equip one, and she knows how to use it.
* LimitBreak: Hyper Attacks also returns in ''sora'' and ''Acceration of SUGURI 2'', but players can now chose how to perform them.[[hottip:*: In ''sora'', "Standard" lets the player evoke their Hyper Attack immediately corresponding to the weapon held when launching the attack. "Advanced" will enact a shield to protect Sora from harm for a brief amount of time, during which if any of the weapon buttons are pressed while the shield is up, will trigger the Hyper Attack.]]
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Stage 1 opens with this, although this trope is evoked in many places of the game.

* [[spoiler:OddlyNamedSequel:See TitleDrop below.]]

* {{Roboteching}}: ORANGE_JUICE loves their arching lasers and missiles in ''sora''.
