Oneechan ga Kita

I know Onee-chan ga Kita hasn't finished airing yet, but this review will be on my current thoughts and analysis.

This anime falls into a generic genre of an incestial love between step-siblings, is what I was thinking before i started to watch it. I think the main reason I actually decided to start it was because I was scanning CR for something interesting. Well, to sum it up, this anime is special in a way. The episodes are 3 or so minutes long and the art style is different. It basically took something like OniAi (Onii-chan Dakedo Ai Sae Areba Kankeinai yo ne!) took ... the main flags, and removed basically everything else. Now you're left with the romantic turning points, the funny parts, and a little bit of character development.

-From here on there will be spoilers up until episode 7 as I have only seen up to episode 7-

Plot: 7/10
Tomoya is a 13yo boy in middle school. He's friends with a girl named Fujisaki Mina and a pervert-ish guy named Hanazono Mitsuru. His dad was single until he remarried, giving him a 17yo, brocon sister named Ichika, who tries her hardest to get Tomoya to fall in love with her. Her friends are somewhat normal, nothing special. Meanwhile at school, Mitsuru likes to bring up the fact he's jealous to no end and wants his own possessive sister etc. Mine on the other hand, used to be bullied when she was younger. She thought it was smartest to make herself cute so guys wouldn't bully her. That's how she's trying to live, but girls are always neglecting her. She's also the devil at times, kinda. By having a short temper sometimes she'd snap and guys'd run way, but Tomoya has a crush on her, (or so I'm lead on to think due to blatancy) and gives her patience. Mina slowly starts to open up to Tomoya, and that's all it's progressed so far.
Kinda generic and there's no real reason why his step sisters a brocon or in such deep love.

Art: 8/10
It's got a cool painting type feeling to it. Its unusual, but nice. It strangely fits the anime very well.

Sound: 9/10
I was watching it on CrunchyRoll and the quality was stellar, (to be expected from CR) but they didn't use any royal free sound effects and the music was subtly and fit nicely.

Characters: 9/10
I already explained the backstory in the Plot part, so I'll give a brief summary on the main characters traits.
Tomoya: He's timid and a little bit shy.
Ichika: She's quiet, determined, thoughtful, and creepily stalker-like at times.
Mitsuru: He's an average guy. Nothing more really has to be said.
Mina: she's a short tempered, narrow minded tsundere in a way. She always has a Facade up, and usually finds everyone annoying.

Onee-chan ga kita hasn't finished airing and's still only half way to the finish or so, but is an enjoyable anime if you've got a little spare time.

(btw, this is my first review so sue me if this sucks)

For those wanting a quickie review I'll Keep this short and sweat for you guys.
If you are wanting a nicely styled, funny Anime, with a hilarious bro-con Sister, that you can blast through really quick while enjoying regular laughs then Onee-Chan ga Kita is perfect for you.

For those wanting a bit more in depth, here you go:-

Story: 7
Although i'm not a huge fan of incestuous relationships, this anime does it right by not forcing it in your face. It's kept simple and sweet. It reminded me of a short, wackier, yet less perverted version of Kiss X Sis.
Art: 8
The art style is different from ... your conventional anime's, but still enjoyable none the less. Another reviewer mentioned it suits the anime well, and i have to agree, that difference in style only highlights how strange Mizuhara is (in a good way)
Sound: 7
Nothing spectacular, but was enjoyable and fitted nicely with the anime
Character: 10
Although all the characters have their own positive and negative aspects, Mizuhara MAKES this anime, she is a riot, she never failed to make me smile and laugh. She gives this anime it's feel. She alone makes this anime a 10/10 for characters.

Overall: 9/10
I came into this anime not expecting much due to the 3 minute episode length. But after blasting through all episodes in 1 sitting i was left yearning for more. It made me laugh on a regular basis without being just another stupid anime with some laughs. It still had some lovely moments of that Sisterly love. As i mentioned at the start i recommend this anime to anyone who wants a quick light hearted funny anime. And i especially recommend it to anyone who was a fan of Kiss X Sis.

Onee chan ga kita is a silly and bright anime! It made me laugh at some points!
Here is my simple and kinda short review:

-STORY: 7
The story is veryyyy simple, it's about a sister who is obssesed to her brother. I liked the story, it's not THAT complex. But it's overall enjoyable to this kind of anime.

-ART: 8
The art is actually very clean and fresh, not A "BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE!" but somewhat cute.

-SOUND: 6
... Meh, the sounds aren't the most important part of the anime. They are fair too me. Not good but not bad.

-CHARACTER: 7
The characters are developed well... but not very well. The protagonist seems a little...normal and/or clíche? Or it's just me, but I have nothing to complain with the others.

-ENJOYMENT: 9
I had sooo much fun with this anime! I laughed very much! The anime is very funny, if you have a sense of humor like me. And sometimes, I also feel bad for Tomoya because of his mother loss...Oh well...

-OVERALL: 8
Onee chan ga kita it's a fun, short, simple and fresh anime with a good story, cute art, meh sounds, good character devlopment and could take a big laugh out of you, I will rate it as 8/10!

TLDR: Cheap generic fun.

An "attractive" older stepsister, Ichika, doting over her new stepbrother, Tomoya. No, it's not a hentai but it's Japanese and there is a dozen of these amusing 3-minute anime series with the same premise. I guess this is a popular trope. Basically, it is generic. The music, art, and animation quality are pretty standard. But it's not horrible and I don't get a creepy incestuous vibe. That might be the one thing that set it apart in that Ichika just wants to be a loving big sister. This almost gives "Oneechan ga Kita" a bit of wholesomeness; all be it in a ... very strange way. As without that little bit of context this show would quickly degenerate into something less "appropriate" for general consumption. You've spent more time watching a single episode of a bad anime, so why not to give this show a chance as this entire series is about 20 minutes.

Puppy-like middle schooler's father remarries and he gets a cute cinnamon roll-like older stepsister who just wants to cuddle him like a puppy.

And, that's pretty much all the plot one can comfortably fit into 3 minutes per episode.

Animation is attractive, with a short plot and cute character interactions. I wasn't as impacted by the ending song as I typically prefer after a show. It felt more like just a complimentary afterthought.

Still, it is rather pleasant to enjoy a change of pace like this once every so often. Enjoyment gets 10 out of 10 from me.

Short, sweet series gets a short, sweet review.

Story(4/10):
There's is nothing much of a story,just step-siblings and their friends with their everyday lives

Art(4/10):
Its decent to be honest considering this is an 3min per ep anime

Characters(7/10):
Most of the characters are siblings pairs,one of each of the pair having sister/brother complex,but at a lesser extent.

Sound(5/10):
... There arent much of background themes in this anime.The opening is just about 30 seconds long too.
Its an almost all-female cast anime,but that doesn't take anything away from enjoying it.

Overall(8/10):
Although it just took 40 mins to complete this anime,i really enjoyed it and recommend this if you want to lighten up your mood.

Oneechan ga Kita (2014)

The show itself is absolutely hilarious. That said it is not for everyone since it is very short and to the point. You are literally thrown into the deep end of a family relationship that just goes from 0-60 in a time that puts a supercar to shame.

The artwork is an average standard. The sister's mouth for me was really poor but I am guessing it was done like that for a reason. It did work in its own way but also kind of felt a bit crappy. The show has not aged very well which is a shame considering the ... shows that are similar in age or older that have.

The sound consists of a very short OP literally seconds and an ED that is alright. Sound generally for its age is well done.

Characters come with the first to mention... a side character Ruri. She is the winner of this shows waifu war and makes for a great character. I was thinking of seeing a few episodes from her point of view but then she just playfights and that could be hard to fill even in short episodes.

The stepsister Ichika is an absolute wack job. At the same time she would make for a pretty great sister in real life and would make life at least more interesting.

Tomoya the brother goes through a lot but he does see the good in her so it is fine.

Fujisaki-san is a sadist who owns popularity with guys unless confronted by older girls to her dismay. She is interesting since it is a cover for her past and true self. Other girls dislike her due to jealously and it shows that it affects her.

Marina is worth a mention since from episode 3 she makes for a hilarious gag character.

With the others, we have a best friend who loves girls, a siscon and so on. Nothing too much needing to be mentioned. One thing however I do note is that some of the side characters that have literally a line of speech are pretty involved too.

Overall, especially from episode 3, the show is absolutely hilarious. It is a hidden gem in its own right and makes for a great watch.

8/10.

Oneechan ga Kita is an interesting little anime, and it certainly pulls above its weight simply by right of just how hard it tries. I was consistently caught off-guard by sudden jumps in animation quality, or the comedic timing of some scenes. That doesn't change the fact that it's still a very brief and broadly average experience, but there's enough here for me to put it a step above other shows in a similar category. Beginning with the story, there really isn't that much of one. Ichika and Tomoya find themselves brought together by their parents marrying each other, and Ichika is obsessed with him ... from the start, leading to shenanigans. Despite the premise being by its nature a little incest-y, it's not like its Oreimo or anything, and Ichika's obsession never borders on the sexual, seeming to fixate on him as an object of cuteness. Surprisingly, it is the art that is this show's strongest aspect. Throughout it meets the standard of quality for modern anime, but there are bursts of surprising detail and high-quality animation. This is really exhibited in how well this show pulls off physical comedy. Maybe this just stands out because each episode is only three minutes, but regardless I remain impressed. The sound is good, with lively voice work and an upbeat ost. The characters are fun and simple with even a little bit of depth to them. My favorites among the cast are the main duo, simply because they get the most development, if you could call it that. Overall, Oneechan ga Kita is one of those vanishingly short anime which can easily go overlooked. It's not a masterpiece or anything, but if you find yourself stumbling upon this anime and you have a half hour or so to kill, give it a shot! There are better anime, but there are also worse ways to spend 30 minutes.
