Oh, she's still an abrasive bint, but the further into the LN you get to see her PoV, not just Kyousuke's, and she's not as horrible as she is in the anime. XD

That's why every time I watch the anime it just feels so so rushed. If that style's your cup of tea, that's fine, but I prefer the character development.
Agreed. I'm still convinced it has a bit to do with discouraging wincest too.
