When did I say the anime was "critically loved"? Also we dont have the facts, but I think its beyond a more then fair assumption that this series gets way more 1/10 votes then the average series because of the controversy. I think if left to its own devices it would be pushing an 8 on MAL. In addition to that, most of the hate and generic 1 liner posts are coming from people who see this thread trending in the active topics section and come to post some dribble.

The reason I brought up the score was because if its an anime you and others you have found online "love to hate" surely its not because its so bad its good if a pool of 40k people from one of the biggest Western fansites is anything to go by. Seems to me something else is going on. 7.14 is not a bad score...

Im not sure what the other numbers really matter, its still a 7.14 with 40k votes on MAL which is an irrefutable statistic. On a Western site too. Hating watching a show with a 7.14? I will admit, I dont get it.

@DuoraDoll As you said, no critique, no discussion, no analysis. Im just giving a taste of it back. Also you cant compare Hollywood to anime.

Those series you listed get most income from the box office, and blu-ray/DVDs are sold for $20-$25 and drop significantly after release. Anime have 6-7 volumes that are 6k yen minimum. If we round down to $50 that is $25 an episode. Anime fans spend way more then Twilight fans, even if that Twilight fan has all the movies and books owning not even half of the blu-ray volumes for any anime costs more then would it have a whole bookshelf of Twilight movies and books.

Anime for now depends on merch rather then streaming revenue like Western media so its an entirely different beast. Its two different approaches. Anime sells to a very small audience with deep pockets when it comes to merch and blu-ray, the West tries to get a broad audience to spend a little bit. So it IS fair to use sales when talking about anime because they market things to appeal to a specific sect of the otaku fanbase to support with blu-ray/DVD and merch sales. The audience they targeted is going to pay up big time for Eromanga Sensei, they dont really care what a bunch of people in the US think who wont be spending money.


Ah, this sounds like a pretty dang solid argument. And on top of that the tone is much better than the previous ones. Took me a while to come up with a response to this but here goes.

It's easy to say that this anime could have gotten an 8, but the reality is that it didn't, but the reason it got that score is the reason why it's popular. This anime very well could be described as a "loli 'incest' fan service show" and this description wouldn't be entirely wrong. This is quite a controversial subject for pretty obvious reasons, and there aren't many anime that tackle all of these elements the way this anime does, so of course it would get hated on, and get 1/10s. Without those controversial elements though, it would have just been another average romantic comedy.

As for my comparison of Hollywood to anime. I probably could have handled that better. I wasn't really comparing the two. All I meant was that just because something is popular and sells well, doesn't mean it's actually that good. It just meets the desires of an audience that aren't tackled often or the same way. Transformers for example ain't good, but there aren't that many movies being made about a bunch of giant alien robots fighting each other with explosions everywhere, so for people who want to see that, Transformers is the place to go. And again, as there aren't many movies or anything that tackle those elements, supporting the movies that do give the people making the movies more of a reason to give people more of what they want. At least that's what I think anyway.

Well thank you for the competent response.

This is hardly an extension of the conversation, but I feel like having a rant.

One of the reasons I am supportive of Eromanga Sensei has admittedly nothing to do with the show itself, but is part of what I just said about anime, catering to niche audiences. The approach anime takes by targeting niches, and rejecting perusing broad appeal, is one of the things that makes anime so special. So many of these shows Western fans love to hate seem to me to be the most unique animes we have.

Thing is with those Western series everyone mentions is, none of them are niche like Eromanga Sensei. If Transformers stopped making content, somewhere along the line a new robot series will come. Sometimes we have to wait, but it will come. Where is a 12 year old little sister fan service romance going to come from with the quality this show has? Its something that would only ever come out of anime, due to how it sells and gets money from the community.

Eromanga Sensei is a concept that would never launch in the West by a studio on the level of A-1 Pictures. This is something really unique to Japan and the entertainment world. It has no broad appeal, its not supposed to, and its themes are so outlandish we would never see them anywhere else. What other industry gambles on getting 4-6 thousand people to pay $300 for the shows? The industry is changing, and streaming is catching up at a great pace with each passing year in terms of where the bulk of revenue is coming. However up until now, and its still mostly the case, merch and blu-ray are what determine if a show is getting a sequel. The fans paying for these blu-ray have a lot of power and say, more so then any other community in the entertainment world that I can think of. The otaku are all powerful in terms of having high quality content of their tastes sold to them.

Then on top of that to keep it short, the animator problem in Japan with there being a shortage and the pay sucking as much as it does.... So many people involved are in it for the art, and it sucks there is a massive problem with the work conditions and pay but it no doubt has an effect on the shows coming out. These animators working in poor conditions with poor pay just for the love of the art is unquestionably going to show in the work. Im not advocating for conditions to stay the same, not in the slightest, but I think people dont realize that a lot of people pour an immense amount of soul into the work. More so then a lot of other entertainment industry.

So just to me, I would complain about Eromanga Sensei in a different way. If you dont like the show thats fine, and there are plenty of other animes people love that I hate, but no matter how much I dislike a show im most certainly glad it is there. Eromanga Sensei if nothing else says hey nothing is off limits in anime yet. We will not be censored and we will pander to a niche community that certainly gets no respect from outsiders looking in. On that note I think Eromanga Sensei deserves a little of everyones support, even if your not a fan of the show.

Last episode was the most hilarious and most number of laughs I produced while watching!
Too many things to point-out! but that ED visuals was a bit different because and the end of the ED song Masamune suddenly went out of the bathroom buck naked with only his towel to cover his ochinko!
5/5!
8/10.

A fun fluff episode...but wait that's the final episode!? Wow what a lame finale for this anime! I'm very disappointed with this anime overall and unfortunately this will most likely get a second season. There was a lot of potential in this anime and the characters were funny at times but overall the anime failed to bring back the magic from Oreimo and left a sad emptiness with this lackluster final episode. Overall I give this anime a 5/10 for it's meh...just average performance.

News Flash - If you hated the premise of the show and you still watched it and then you come here using bombastic words to overly exaggerate how bad it is, no your opinion does not count.

I have only seen a very small handful of people criticize the plot thoroughly and in a competent manner the entirety this show has ran. All the complaints are herp derp fan service, incest, this that, half of what the haters complain about is the appeal of the show by the fans who enjoy it. Regardless, its best to try and ignore their negativity because they are just trying to spread their illness online. Sad people : (

I was right from the very get-go that this was going to be a shitfest. Each episode made me question what kind of person I've become to actually lay my eyes on this mess. And multiple times during each episode I hear sirens that I could have sworn were coming from the outside of our yard. I'll be waiting for another season.

If you hate this anime because of the incest relationship, you should learn why incest is forbidden in the first place.
From biological point of view, incest or inbreed fertilization has huge risks of inheriting sex-chromosome-linked recessive disease, for example haemophilia which killed most of Queen Victoria generation due to inbreeding.

As in Eromanga-sensei anime, step-sibling love can be considered as safe as there's no risk of inheriting sex-chromosome-linked disease. So as biotechnologist and genetic researcher I approve Masamune x Sagiri relation while I absolutely disagree with inbreed relationship in Oreimo

Pretty fun ride, but i feel like the story is going no where, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. So many references make this show even hillarious they even show characters from oreimo. nothing much to say really.

Masamune x Elf Yamada ( Emily ) let the ship set sail everyone


Overall score 7/10, wouldn't mind for a 2nd season.

Is there a risk for cartoon characters? Don't you see that step siblings is a cop out especially if they are just going to act like siblings anyway. This series took the half-assed less morally challenging route because the audience would rather not think about the show they watched.

I'm glad to see Tomoe and Megumin again.

The festival was fun. It was really funny. Dunno if Megumin if is pretend to have a boyfriend or not. Most probably the latter. I got smiles and laugh watching.

The series was fun, cute and entertaining. The girls are likable, Megumin is so cute and Elf is best.

How fitting that the finale was the trashiest piece of shit of all the episodes (except maybe episode 1). This anime was like a rollercoaster ride that just took me down to the depths of hell. Now that it's ended, I feel like I've come back up with literally all the cancer and a little trauma.
I only watched this anime because of the podcast Digibro and BestGuyEver were doing, shitting on it, even though they repeatedly told their listeners not to watch it. I was considering watching Oreimo as well, but now that I think about it, I really don't want to do this to myself again.

I watched this episode last week or so and I must say that it wasn't the best of season finales but a good one at least. Great to see Sagiri slowly getting over her entrapped way of living. Overall, the show gets 7.5/10 because of the laughter it provided.

Looking forward to a season2 <3

This title took me on an up and down. I initially hated it, the early episodes were such a drag and very hard to get through. Once sagiri started to warm up and his harem started to assemble

I'm not sure if there will be a season 2 though since most of the problems had already been solved (somewhat).

I hope we'll get the oreimo treatment with sagiri and masamune hitting it off

I thought it was fine show for a spin-off of Oreimo. Though somewhat boring the characters were interesting and story was enjoyable to an extent. Thankfully the main characters are better and more likeable especially the Male lead. I would've also preferred if the author kept the romance part more ambiguous instead of following the Oreimo trend.

Overall 6/10
