My idea of parenthood is not a super-Tamagocchi.

That's pretty much the way the anime is structured so far. That doesn't mean that it'll always stay that way, but so far each encounter is rather standalone rather than some other stories where the characters introduced are more interwoven within the narrative. Personally that doesn't really bother me, but it's a different kind of storytelling that feels a bit more fragmented than the typical plot-driven anime. But, as we've seen so far, the earlier fragments do seem to come back later, so I think it's mostly a matter of being patient and seeing where they're going with all this.

Let's cut to the chase, and I'll get a lot of flac for saying this, but let's be honest.
This is a geek
wish fulfillment story. Nothing more or less.
In essense, it's not any different from multitude of "little sis who loves her oniichan" anime, just in a different theme.
This is not meant to be critique, there's nothing wrong with one.
I find watching or reading "wet dreams come true" quite entertaining, in fact.
Hell, otherwise why would I play eroge.
