| Heh, this was nothing short of a guilty pleasure with the first episode featuring lots and lots of Yume and Mizuto together. For some reason, the first epsiode also decided to to put Yume in a towel because why not. Seems they wanted to flesh out their relationship chemistry as much as possible at home, school, etc. Oh and that bath scene was awkward as hell. |
 |
| From the same studio (Project No. 9) that brought you HigeHiro, here comes the supposedly next "dumpster fire-cum-spiritual successor" of Domestic Girlfriend: novelist Kyousuke Kamishiro's family remarriage, for the two MCs from being ex-lovers to being siblings: Mizuto Irido and Yume Ayai. DIALOGUE+ once again delivers a good OP song, there's just ain't one that recently misses. The "Onee-chan" or the "Onii-san" debating their position in the new family, and one can already tell that this "drama" is gonna be so messy, my closest reference being to Masamune-kun no Revenge. Also, the sexual pandering in this feels almost cringe to watch, for the one who confesses loses the game. Even things like who's boss at home, the standards have definitely been warped between the two. Even in school, both Mizuto and Yume must conceal their true identities, but it doesn't even take long to fly that Yume is already that close to Mizuto from the get-go. Also, their home is where all the raunchy stuff happens (and I remind you, this is between stepsibilings whom were once lovers), and even from the very beginning, it's clear that the relationship of the two will be one full-blown melodrama that even though this is advertised as a rom-com of sorts, it surely doesn't feel that AT ALL. I at least can accept HigeHiro, but this one...eh, it's smearing the lines of love and incest. I'm already fearing for the worst. |

| Is it normal to walk around the living room wearing a towel, even if your brother is there? Their moments are really cute, I like both of them even though they have to be a bro and sis but yeah... this relationship is very interesting, I've read the manga version and yeah this is just as I expected. Will their parents find out? I mean Yume is hiding like that, lol.  |
| Domestic girlfriend didn’t get a sequel and by all means it shouldn’t too. But hey who cares about it when there are so many bootleg versions running around like have a look at this, my stepmom’s daughter is my ex. I guess the title itself explains the ninety percent of the plot lol. Again it was nothing that we haven’t seen one-thousand times already. Also these series of coincidences are way too much even for this medium, like she has to be the ex, she has to be the new step sister, heck they even got the same classes lmao. And wait they were about to kiss in the end, right? The fuck their parents didn’t arrive a minute early, should’ve caught them red-handed. Just the kind of first episode I was expecting. |
 |
| Honestly the idea sounds interesting but so far the characters have been trying so hard to dis each other that you can't really tell if they have any good quantities at all which doesn't make them likable. I thought they would back done eventually and make up at some point but i just hope it won't be over the entire course of the anime else this won't be a good watch. The parents are trying hard to make a nice family tho which was nice to see but that's what you can expect from a newly wedded couple. Now the question is how long will it take for their kids to get along. |
| Ngl I'm getting a Domestic Girlfriend flashback out of the this though they're nothing alike at all in some case and the incest vibe I'm getting is very strange. Just gonna pretend like they're not brothers and sisters at all, they're just some broken couple who coincidentally stayed at a house together and that relationship introduction was actually pretty cute with the so forth segment, also I thought they were going to kiss at the end, got scammed, hope their parents didn't caught them :S |
"......If I told you that I was a real witch, would you believe it?"  |
Ohhh no I decided to check this out on a whim and I'm getting some PTSD of other shows I didn't like so much, this is going to definitely be a bad one full of despair by the looks of things. Agree with some of the others on here, this feels like a bootleg version of domestic girlfriend with all the obvious tropes hanging around and them seeming to hide from their family too. Not the best start but I'll give it a chance for sure, it has potential to be better then what I downplay it for. |

I am thinking that you are having flashback of Domestic Girlfriend. If that’s true, I’d say this is nothing like it. This one is more like exes trying to find out about themselves and have their mindset become more and more matured. It’s quite drama-free as long as I concern, and I’m a LN reader and currently at the final half of vol 6 |

| HMMMM...... another Kyoto-setting anime. Both of them were cute, especially when they were teasing each other. Yume with glasses is the best Yume. She should continue wearing it. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| Oh this is one of those animes that are enjoyable to watch but make me feel guilty watching it. Great. Can't wait to see what it has to offer |

| ah hell nah, but it aight |
 |
| Well, then. Yume may be technically born 30 minutes earlier, but she's doomed to stay the little sister by virtue of being voiced by the ultimate loli and little sister VA, Hidaka Rina. *nods* Just one small complaint, though... I mean, we do have the title and the summary, but would it really be that hard to actually explain their previous relationship in the series itself? (But I will forgive them if it's done properly in the next episode.) |
 |
| Ahh yes first episode, definitely what I'm expecting from the title. I'm all the way for the ride. |
 |
| I really don't know if I will continue to watch just for the sake of making innuendo jokes. I wonder how long until a "stepbro im stuck" joke. |
 |
| After thinking for a while whether I'll watch this or not here I am watching this show. I have nothing against the setting but hope they end up together. |

It's weird in this situation though because they'd both willing being intimate with each other. |
| Now thats a awkward relationship to bring into a family. Damm thats an impressive library that Mizuto has. Still an interesting game to determine who would be the elder sibling though. That was a nice counter to Yume's assault. Being in the same class as well lol. Looks like on her first day Yume's been pretty busy. Still Yume's efforts to break through to Mizuto show well the lingering feelings she has for him. Though Yume went to far with her prank the two of them almost both lost in the end there. Overall an excellent opening ep that while doing well in introducing the main leads also did well to showcase the trials that they'll be putting up to test each other. Its nice to see Rina take up lead role this time. The premise though kind off reminds me of Kaguya. |

| Best start of this season for now. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| The show starts just like in it did in the LN, but unlike the LN they don't explain the two characters past relationship, I assume the next one is going to do that. The rest of the episode was just like the LN with Yume saying she has a brother complex in order to help Mizuto. But the towel scene happened a little different in the LN. The art-style is pretty similar to the LN, but what I really didn't like was Yume's voice, idk it sound too mature for a girl who was supposed to be shy and innocent in the past, and just got to high school. Still pretty decent so far, I wonder how many volumes they will adapt. |

| Great episode! Yume and Mizuto try not to upset their parents and so decide to take the fact they dated to the grave. Their parents think they get along well xD. Yume wants Mizuto to call her onee chan... They were both born on the same day but Yume was born at 11:04 whereas Mizuto at 11:34. They each want to be the older sibling! They start a game of whoever acts unatural for a sibling is considered younger... Yume exploits the rules and opens his sacred drawer so Mizuto uses his smooth talking tactics to make her lose! They are in the same class in school also! People try to make friends with Mizuto because they know he is Yume's stepbrother... She stops that by pretending to have a brother complex though xD. She walks out the bath with a towel to try fluster him but her towel nearly falls... She overdid it lol. Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| Interesting episode, I just call this series "My ex-girlfriend is my step-sister" and that is apparently what all the episode was about for the moment. We obviously need that scene of Yume in towel, it is neccesary to show in a state of semi-nakedness the girl of the cover in episode 1, we need to get more viewers (btw, this is not sarcastic). |
| Oh helllllllll no. Episode one and theyre already slipping up like that? This will only end in fire |

| Ah the old leg switch. Flash backs to Basic Instinct. Im not really sure where they are going with this show, or what its purpose is about, but after watching the first eps I'm kinda curious and it has its silly moments so I', gonna see where it goes. |
To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| I don't like it... would have been better if it was called my ex's mom is now my girlfriend...lol |
 |
| I watch the anime to prove that i still can like the series or enjoy or something like that, I read the first 2 Vol of the LN and i can't enjoy that so I hope the anime can help to make me continue to read. I enjoy the anime but for some reason it didn't make me wanna to continue to read, i guess i will try to watch more. oh not forget DIALOGUE+ make the big impact for me to watch this series because they sing the OP. |
