Very self-explanatory question, just wanna know if y'all think the backlash towards Oreimo is deserved or not.

I don't know what you mean by 'backlash'. I just know that I love the show but would have liked a more fleshed out ending where

nobody cares that much about it anymore idk. but i enjoyed it. obviously there will be hate given its nature. but thats fine, and obviously most of the haters watched it, so if it was really so terrible its almost like they’re self reporting…

It’s probably hated by people who express strict morality and can’t separate fiction from reality, and loved by people who secretly (or not?) find the illicit nature of the relationship exciting or stimulating. I’m in the middle somewhere. I like the consistency of the character writing even if I find the core concept a bit uncomfortable. It’s like the show is experimenting with this theme to prod the viewer into forming opinions or at least having a better understanding of themselves and how tolerant/ kinky they are. I liked it strongly rather than loved it.

I’ve actually been rewatching it recently. It all just stems from it being known as “that incest one”.
No one wants to give it a try. Despite it being actually funny. Idk if it fits into one of those definitions because most aren’t starring it. If I had to say thou then over hated. Thou I definitely think it needs criticism. Its shifting tones and odd ending that the authors editor made him change to avoid controversy felt lacking.
All I say if anyone wants to watch it try it first

HER. That is all.

The anime ending for s2 was very poor, but the overall series besides that is pretty great. It gained a lot of popularity based on its high merit in general. Oreimo portable is awesome if you want to see a good end with each girl.

Oreimo is totally enjoyable trash that requires you to completely shut your brain off in order to properly enjoy. I had an absolute blast watching it, because I've taken absolutely nothing seriously in it, especially the ending, to which I was prepared anyway, because it is obvious that THE main girl will win in the end.
Also, I said it many times and I've said it again.
Regardless if you love or hate this show, Kuroneko character is absolutely the best part of it and single reason why I would recommend to watch it for everyone. She singlehandedly carries the show. She is like Kurumi to Date a Live, but actually even better. I also think it was KanaHawa's best performance ever.

I don’t really care much about it any more but I remember at the time I was just really confused with the ending. I might be remembering it wrong but it felt like he only built a good “relationship” with the short black haired girl but somehow everyone else fell in love with him as well 🤔. I watched it many years ago when I was pretty young so idk don’t take my words too seriously

I actually like the anime for the most part. Most of the bad reviews I saw are mostly focused on the relationship, so outside of that, I figured this would have praised more. The only real example I have seen close to this would be Usagi Drop. It has a high rating of being liked because there wasn't a second season.

“Polarizing” “controversial” “contentious”. It’s not really about how people see it because it generates a lot of buzz.

Extremely overhated. The thing people criticize the show for is actually a strength. Their relationship is beautiful. It’s easily one of the most accurate depictions of sibling dynamics in anime.

I liked the show. Didn’t care for the ending though. It was weird to me but whatever. I thought he should end up with KuroNeko. I think that was her name.

It’s put in the same catagory as eromanga sensei. Might largely be hated due to being compared to that.

Its overhated, if it wasn't for the incest it would be mid to be honest and poeple wouldn't be as interested.

They wouldn't care for another mid SOL Romance anime.

Great characters tho, that was the best of the show.

The show has better character writing than most shows, and while the story was a bit messy in some parts, I will stand by the show being something genuinely good. It's compared to eromanga sensei a lot, but it's way more sophisticated; any similarities only run surface level imo.

Overhated, I remember years ago when it first came out, I was just going on plot based and it was good. The characters were well developed to the story and the ending at first I was like HUH? Why? but then as i grew older I was like oh shit okay nvm. But based on the story and plot, it was pretty good for two seasons :)

I will start by saying I don't have anything against incest in anime. I had no problem with Eromanga Sensei for that matter. That being said, I do not understand the ending. It felt forced, almost as if the writer just couldn't find a decent way to pull the show back into siscon.
It was indeed very enjoyable until around the second part of S2, like some said earlier Kuroneko had a bus driver position in the story, and then, in my opinion, the show just kind of throws all it built in terms of character development and said story into the trash and just brought a half-assed, and often almost repulsive pull back into siscon finale. That kind of ending could work in some cases, but it just didn't fit for me, and felt surprisingly wrong; rant-like almost.

Every anime that has any real commitment to sibling love has a 2.00 weighted score handicap as a consequence. Users here rate based on their preconceived opinions on themes an anime contains, rather than how it delivers on them.

Oreimo is better than most romcoms, and knows exactly how to set the scene in the same situations where lesser series would fail at it. Of course it's underrated.

The show is only for people who like to see shitty people doing what they want and a self-flagellating brother that just takes shit without complaint.
