Great series, I really, really enjoyed watching this one. It was much better than expected. Initially I thought Kyousuke was some sort of plain businessman type character while Kirino was the typical tsundere, and to a degree she is.

What makes this show memorable to me was how much attention it gives to eroge and otaku culture in general. I appreciated how it emphasised things like the buying habits of game and figure collectors, the sis-con imouto fetish and how a person with these habits would blend in to society.

I did get a little creeped out when Kyousuke kept losing at the battle game and his character hardly had any clothes on, but it's also a part of why this show is great. Explore those taboos, show us the extremes. In the context of the show, it makes for great humour.

Although, I didn't get a sense of development throughout the episodes and it felt like each one was tightly contained within itself. It's just Kirino and her brother on another adventure with a different supporting character. I would have liked more information on Saori's background than just the tease. I also think this episode's ending was completely unexpected (in a bad way), so was Kirino's change in behavior last episode. I didn't sense any build-up that she was hiding something, later to be the trip itself, so it was hard to digest.

OP's were fantastic, I absolutely love how they changed it each episode. ClariS' song already made it great to watch anyway. ED's were the opposite for me, mostly a minute and a half of panning over the same illustration, really? In general, great presentation and animation all round.

7/10. A bold and enjoyable show! I have high expectations for the True Route.

LOL, I cried a little bit at the end with the game going along with what kirino was probably thinking. Also Kuroneko's little cat dance was freaking adorable during the credits. Ready to start that season 2. :D

Greast episode. I wasn't sure where they were going with the ending, but It feels in character for the characters.

this series was moving at minus 20mph for most of the season kirino was an iceberg at the start and ended as an iceberg there was not rlly any development after 9 episodes of no much the last 3 episodes where litterly out of the blue especially this episode jst sudenly saying shes going to america then the arguement and well timed game saying what they cldnt say but then nothing after tht he wakes up cut leaves his room some how not cut and nothing had changed they werent any closer the hole episode was litterly jst filling time because of the lack in sttory development the most interesting thing in the episode was the midnight launch que if it had no second series i wld have given this a 6 or maybe a 5 for the poor ending and rush in the last few episodes and lack of any resloution to anything

Perhaps not the best metaphor, in that only 1/10th of an iceberg is visible, most the interesting stuff is happening below the surface.

Actually that is a great metaphor, just not in the way you meant.

So this is how it ends, huh? Well, can’t say I ever got to like Kirino, mainly because of her attitude and her being a little sister. But there were a lot of hilarious moments and some of the other characters were likeable enough, so it’s all good. I’m quite torn on the rating, but I guess I’ll stick with 8/10.

Also, that "Nayoro〜n" from Saori made the whole episode for me. That was way too good. :D

Great last episode, though the America thing came out of nowhere, it did resolve itself really quickly. The part where the mouse clicked the choice on the eroge was pretty dramatic too. Though she beat him up after haha. Loved the Anime, I'm ready for the alternative endings and season 2! :D

Loved this series more than i thought i would :O!
I'll save my verdict for the BD specials...but this episode as a 'finale' was pretty bad even though i enjoyed it, they threw in the America twist out of nowhere and ended it just like that...pretty pointless episode..

Kuroneko at the end was the best part <3!

3/5 for the ep.

I want to mention that I typed all of this while watching the episode. I do that for most of my comments.

LOL I was kind of expecting that "final advice" to be a bit more... serious. Silly me XD

This episode was so great. Kyousuke's friend getting a macho-homo eroge and Kyousuke finding out was gold XD And as the poster above said, that homo eroge sound effect had me cracking up laughing XD
"Whenever you say Nii-san to him, he blushes, and it's really creepy!" LOL @ Kirino and Kuroneko's conversation.
And, holy shit, I didn't expect Kirino to be going to America... and I also didn't expect her to beat up Kyousuke like that O__O Oh, wait, Kirino decided not to go. I like that better :D ...and it seems her dad does, too, tee hee...

This series probably deserves an 8/10, but screw it, I enjoyed it so much I will give it a 10/10.
I can't wait to watch the sequel.

can anybody explain why Kirino ends up staying? It felt really random and unrealistic, especially considering the giant fight between kyousuke and kirino...I just feel like a huge decision like that deserves some explanation, and it pretty much ruined the ending for me. Kinda disappointing cuz the rest of the season was so good :/

This isn't the true ending. It is an anime only ending that is similar to a real galge where there are two choices at a juncture of the route. The specials are the true ending.

I love this episode, the happy ending, it's more interesting and more action between them. I also love fight scene between them, it's so dramatic, intense, intimate and hot. I love the final scene when they walk together and both are happy <3 And of course life counseling continues. Okay! ;)
Also opening was great, so many interesting moments.

Pretty lovely ending for this first season, I actually quite liked the change in pacing and well the fact she would normally go to America was kinda interesting. Good that she decided not to go!

I do wonder what the specials have to offer and what the second season will have for a story!

this anime was a very sad story about a boy suffering on his heavy braincancer and getting totured in a house full of people suffering on the same disease. I just cant figure out which one of them is suffering the most?

Is it the boy with his uncontrolable aggression problems, his lack of control over what he is saying and thinking though to the already mentioned braincancer and his sick need to rape his little sister?

Or is it the girl with her perverted fetishism which she thinks is absolulty normal and tries to reflect to other persons ( in the second season she even believes the other people are the perverted ones and she is the normal one.. very sad) and her need to fuck her brother?

Maybe it is the black haired chick friend of the sister (which especially shines in the second season, where her psychosis got a lot of screantime) which like the 2 main characters is unable to develope any kind of logical thinking. It was especially hard to watch her suffering.. u can really feel the braincancer consuming her more and more.

This one was unexpected and surprised. Kirino rejected her trip to America was kinda a let-down for me; I wanted her to go there and come back as a different Kirino, but we all can't get what we went :p

The scene I like was Kyousuke and Akagi bumped into each other in Akihabara and shared embarrassed looks. It was funny when Akagi yelled that homos are great, causing everyone to look at him and Kyousuke lol

Overall, this was a decent series finale. Not really good and not really bad but just decent. The next season looks very promising :3 can't wait to watch it!

So basically this was fake (untrue) ending, right? The "real" ending was in specials, right? Or the specials are just "alternate universe"???
Does season 2 start after this "fake" ending or after special's "real" ending?
Ive seen s1 and specials, and now Im totally CONFUSED. Please answer my questions, b'coz my mind is f###ed right now.
I wanna start watching s2 with "clear" mind :P

BTW: if s2 starts after special, then what was the point of this"fake" episode? Forced happy endin or what???

I didn't expect Kirino to change that much. Also those girls were having such a good time seeing the scene between Kyousuke and Akagi. Good they didn't understand why everybody was looking at them. And a super cute scene with Kuroneko in the ending. :D

I really enjoyed this series. Next season should be cool.

This episode had some funny moments in it, along with some of the more serious antics of Kirino and Kyosuke regarding their relationship. But, for more of a simpler ending, I’m glad to see that Kirino decided to stay.

The ending to this series, I thought, went well , but not as good as it could have been; its decent enough to act as the “Good Ending” to the show. But something still bothers me;

Why does Kirino decide to stay?



The next day, she is still there………

Does she stay because of some newly formed bond caused by the life counseling? Or because she realizes how important family is? Or does she stay because she knew that Kyosuke really does care about her, and that he didn’t mean what he said? Or, lastly, does Kirino stay for her brothers sake and to playfully “annoy’ Kyosuke by doing so?

Thoughts?

[b]Anyways, I love this series!![/b]

Kirino was starting to piss me off but she's redeemed herself a tiny bit this episode.

Still gotta say, I like Manami and Kuroneko much more than Kirino. (And hate Ayase. Dumb bitch.)

Ok, relaxing series. I expected more incest though. Maybe in s2?
The comedy was pretty meh and Kirino was annoying most of them time - too tsundere.

Mother mocking the father was hilarious :D

Scene where Kyousuke caved in about buying it for Kirino was almost similar to me caving in to my sis :D
Crowd clapping for Akagi and Kyousuke :D

Aww she decided not to go, Kyousuke and their Father are pretty stoked about it :)

Oh damn, the anime is actually airing, father took a peak at it.


I actually quite liked the show, the tsundere and abuse gets a bit over the top at times.
The characters were super like-able, they were well designed.

Kirino's fingernails were pink... again. The series got less and less interesting with her nails as it went on. It started out with orange, blue, etc. then just pink.

Full-on homo.

Best girl: Kuroneko
2nd best: Ayase
Worst: Kirino ... and I still want to punch her. I wanted her to get slapped back. Disappointed.

This series was hit and miss on the comedy. Characterization wasn't great either. I don't really care about any of the characters.

I'm going to disagree with a lot of people here. I actually liked the Good End more than the True Route. Now, since they're both considered Episode 12, I shouldn't have to hide my opinion behind a spoiler button, but as a courtesy, I will. And then no one can criticize me for spoiling the other ending.

When I saw that yaoi he was there for I cracked so hard XD
Man she really kicked his ass this time and he takes it and moves on with it and she doesn´t regret it one bit and the parents didn´t noticed his bruised up face he woke up with (wierd good ending considering)... Who btw seems to have grown some interest in anime.
Grandpa larva walk xD
Ruri´s neko dancing ^^ (Seen it from various anime crack videos... Though it looked familiar).

Deja vu last scene.

Whatever my expectations were I guess it blew them away, it feels like it anyway: 8/10.

[But is still have the "True Route" episode and 2 more left]
