Eh...
Through out the series, Kyosuke has already show to be closet pervert. From lusting over Ayase, to getting aroused by Kuroneko, to get shell-shocked by Saori's true looks. Not to mention her fetishes with long black hair and eyeglasses..... And with all due respect, Kuroneko is his first girlfriend. Any physically able man would be wondering what it would be like to touch a boob. (just not as straight-forward as Kyosuke is) Though, I love Kuroenko more and more. She also hope that Kyosuke and Kirino can solve what problem they had. I'm getting hopeful that the dream Kyosuke had in the short story would be turn true.

yes, massively overthinking it (O.o) and trying to force connections less sturdy than a house of cards.
People have different tastes, over analyze them, and we end up with nutcases suggesting anyone who likes small petite women is a pedophile, or that men who want women with breasts are "looking for mommy" or other such nonsense. Kyou is a high school boy who is simply excited that he might have someone (Kuroneko) who'd be comfortable cuddling with him. He's awkward and young. Much more than that and the "bringing one's own baggage to the table" issue has to be raised. Japanese light novels are leave much indirect, implied, or unstated. They tend to read pretty matter of fact. "This happened", "I said blah", "She went to..." . I think the Haruhi books were a bit of a oddity in that much of the text is Kyon inner-discussion with himself. These Ore Imouto books (from what I've seen) are more typical.

Im a fiery supporter of Kyousuke x Kuroneko that's why there is a part that in particular i dont really like and gives me a bad feeling of what might happen in the future, if not already actually happened and is this:

I'm sure Kuroneko meant that she wanted both Kyousuke and Kirino to be able to get along with each other and to be able to have tea as in the drawing with each other without arguing. Kuroneko doesn't want to get them together in a romantic way that wouldn't make any sense because then it would just negate what she has done up to now with Kyousuke It makes sense because in volume 7 when Kirino reveals her fake boyfriend Mikagami she gets pissed off at Kirino, because Kirino is trying to anger Kyousuke on purpose. Kuroneko doesn't want them to hate each other but get along with each other. Which is her "Idea World" as in the drawing" So to me you have nothing to worry about |

Well, Kuroneko has known about Kirino's feelings for Kyousuke for quite some time now ("I love you just as much as your sister") and even if it doesn't seem like it, she greatly values the friendship she has with her. I'd rather wait for more details on following chapters, but I do believe there's a chance all she's been doing so far was because she's playing cupid for them.

@Garfiled
That's what i hope, the problem is Kuroneko character has always been an overly symbolism person, even Kyousuke says so himself (from the anime Ep14): "The symbolism is so heavy he can't understand the story of the game". So, having Kirino and Kyo in a pic and no image of her around gives a strange feeling. I hope too that image is just a "siblings getting along while --lover-- elsewhere". @Maugomale If she is playing cupid, what a cruel way to play with Kyousuke too. Put it in blunt words, her actions might be read as she is a two-faced bitch imo. ;-; Last edited by sleepingleo; 2011-05-16 at 20:36. Reason: replying |

wow wow wow, what's with all these speculations? and regarding the breast thing, as far as I can tell from the illust, for her body size, I think
I would reserve my comments for the Ideal World thing. People see what they want to see, though there's little doubt, if not none at all, for the LN readers on how Kuroneko feels. and I only just started chapter 3 (close to 100 pages), since I was busy clearing Aiyoku no Eustia, which I must say WTF*10 towards the end. but before that, I need to clear some work first. XD P.S: Geez, can someone who has the LN take over me in the summaries already. XD Last edited by larethian; 2011-05-16 at 23:19. |

Now, I probably shouldn't be complaining when I translated Vol22 of Index novels from Ch5 as well, but nevertheless it's frustrating to see a new book out but not start at the beginning. Guess this is karma coming back to bite me and shows how much of a hypocrite I am (At least I gave full summaries of the novel before jumping in to translate, but still...) |

Seen from the classic drama arc, and taking into account that I do believe that the author knows what he's doing, I'd say that the chances of a Kuroneko/Kyousuke end have just skyrocketed.
Yes, I'm serious. Why? Because KN's "Arcadia" has now outlined a target ending for Kirino/Kyousuke. Being able to have a tea together, in harmony and peace. THIS is the goal line for them, not any kind of romantic involvement (which would never work out in the first place with their family). And once this is achieved, KN will be the logical choice for a conclusion. Kirino comforting Kyousuke from the separation pain is an important step in this direction. I think that KN understands that as long as she is keeping Kyousuke occupied as GF, this necessary healing cannot occur. So she's stepping out, at least for the time being. (All of this is simply based on gut feeling and novel translation summaries, I might be completely wrong - but this is how everything would fit) |

First, I think we should keep speculations in spoilers.
Second, while we're on the topic of breasts, it is my opinion that Ruri would be lower tier A cup, since it doesn't seem she's the type to go for making her bust look bigger than they are (many girls actually wear a cup that is one size bigger than their actual size, with a small underbreast to keep things on). |
