Anime Relations: Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai
This is the Hundred-and-twelfth week of using the "Perfect Anime Girl Sheet". Notice: This Blog may contain Unmarked Spoilers.

Today we look at a standard meganekko from last year. A girl who encompasses many common traits of the "Meganekko"-archtype, and one of the best girls of the fall season in my opinion.

Today's girl is:


Manami Tamura
from
OreImo


I know what you're thinking. "Oh my! It is a gif! This is new and interesting!" It was mainly because I couldn't find any good images of her/I got lazy...

Head
Hair: Manami has a very cute hair cut. It's short, but even so it is outstanding. It makes her head look so circular. It's slightly plain, but still good. Nice brown color as well. It's slightly boyish looking, but I won't say that's a bad thing.
Grade: B+

Eyes: She has plain greyish-blue eyes. I wouldn't say that they're great (the small pupil(?) in the middle bothers me), but they are still very cute. The thing that makes her are definitely her glasses. They just add so much to her moe charts. She has a pair of under frames, and hauuuu~ so adorable!!!
Grade: A-

Face: Her face is fairly simple, but still quite cute. Especially when smiling, like in the gif above. Don't you just wanna give her a hug? But to finish this section, she has small features, which is a plus, and she has a good amount of blush scenes
Grade: A-

Body
Build: Manami has a surprisingly good body. However, as OreImo is not really a curvy-based anime, we don't see them that much. She's 160 cm tall and weighs 50 kg, which has a BMI much better than some of the other characters. As for her "surprisingly good body" I mentioned earlier? Her measurements are 84/59/86, so she's got a bit more in the trunk than under the hood, but not much and not enough for me to complain about. Besides, a great waifu-quality meganekko like her needs good child-bearing hips.
Grade: B+

Breasts: Her breasts are definitely downplayed, like many curves she has. As I said before, her chest is an 84. It's unfortunate that we don't see the curves she has...
Grade: B

Clothes: Often we see Manami in a vested school uniform, which is one of my favorites (probably just below blazers in standard uniforms). Her normal clothes are not that impressive either. The color is not eye-catching, but with a character like her, it's probably for the better. I prefer Sometimes she wears a light purple coat as well, and sometimes she wears an apron. All in all, a very reserved wardrobe, but she wears it so well.
Grade: A-

Mind
Personality: Manami is a mix of two popular character archtypes. The most obvious one is the Meganekko (Warning, link leads to TVTropes. Topaz will not be held responsible for hours of time lost as a result of following it). She is a sweet, kind, smart, and sort of shy, but slightly plain (not necessarily a bad thing). She's a traditional girl, the type you'd want to show off to your parents. She has amazing housewife skills, which proves her waifu skills. The other archetype she has is a childhood friend. She's been living near Kyousuke most of their lives, so an attachment is there.

Some people think that characters like Manami are boring. They think "Derp Derp Copy Paste example", but you know what? If I like the character, then she'll get a good score here, and I don't care much for "Oh this character I like is so original"-type arguments. Well, I don't like arguments all that much either, but that's a different topic.

In other words, Manami is a standard meganekko, and there is nothing wrong with that. She's really adorable, and I want to hug her.



I mean, can you say no to that?.


...Oh, and her VA also did Ritsu from K-On. I can't forget something like that.
Grade: A

Libido: Unsurprisingly, she does have a crush on Kyousuke, as is common with childhood friends. Unfortunately, he also thinks of her like a sister.

Mostly...

At least until we (and Manami herself) finds a stack of meganekko-based questionable magazines owned by him. Whether or not these were specifically planted or if they are just his favorite type of girl isn't answered (though they are definitely his). After this discovery, Kyousuke's dating sim acts up and accesses a secret scene with a meganekko little sister. Now, what does Manami do in this situation? Does she slap him? Yell at him, likely using "Idiot"?

She asks if she can call him Onii-chan, thus attempting cater to his apparent little sister fetish.

That kind of attitude is great for getting points here. Unfortunately, he seemed less than pleased about it....

However, she was being a bit more of a tease when he came over. Well, not exactly a "tease", as that seems more sultry than she could muster. The incident I'm speaking of is when she offered to take a bath together. Kyousuke accepted, but turns out Manami wasn't serious. No foul there, though, as it was fairly funny, and embarassed Manami is moe.
Grade: B+

Age: Manami is 17, but acts extremely mature. Kyousuke even jokes that she acts like a grandma.
Grade: A-

Total Grades: 86
Average score: 9.6
Final Grade: A-
