This anime had an odd story that felt like it didn't really go anywhere. The episodes felt like fractured mini stories rather than one continuous story line, nothing seems to really connect except in the long run. Every single episode has a weird time jump to it that can sometimes feel like you missed a detail or another from episode to episode.
Art [7/10]:
Standard art style as far as most anime goes, nothing truly stuck out in my mind as being truly exceptional. Although I found the style throughout cute and I thought that the intros and outros having differing details every time made them interesting and kept me from skipping past them.
Sound [8/10]:
Pretty good intro, pretty good outro. There are also songs within the anime such as the theme song for Meruru which has been stuck in my head for a few days and something I have sung quietly out loud to myself. The nice little tunes that establish an atmosphere are also positives that I liked about this anime.
Character [9/10]:
Kirino is a cute character but also extremely annoying, however the growth of all the characters throughout the anime are interesting to see develop despite the fractured story. I think that the incestual undertone is kind of odd although that is kind of the whole point of the anime. Seeing the brother sister duo grow and have their relationship develop is really what this anime is about and without these two differing personalities the show wouldn't be as interesting as it is.
Enjoyment [9/10]:
Although starting this show very long ago on Crunchyroll and only watching the first three episodes I am glad that I came back to finish this anime. It wasn't as interesting or captivating as others I have watched but it was still extremely enjoyable and a fun watch that I am glad I came back to finish. I don't think this anime is for everyone nor do I think I will re-watch it but I will most likely watch all the ONAs and the second season.
