God I know it is frustrating not having "muh best girl win da oreimo" but going to such an extent on the sole purpose of hating a single fictional character makes me lose faith in humanity. I mean I also have been disapointed by character developments in other anime and I just dealt with it, I didn't start inventing whatever possible reason to disprove a character I didn't like. Eventhough I'm a hardcore Kirino shipper I also appreciated the other characters(except Manami of course) and even if the author had chosen Kuroneko, Ayase or Kanako route I would still have been fine with it and properly enjoyed the ending. Kirino sure has a strongly expressed tsun side, but boldly ignoring everything else about her and only focusing on "muh best girl" just sounds unfair for a character that has been given such a deep character development throughout the story. I'm not expecting people who dislike her to change their opinion, but just don't go blaming it on the superficial part of her personality and the events of the ending.

Well, you can't really take that petition seriously at all because they're petitioning the White House to change a character's role in an already-produced Japanese anime. This clearly won't work... People are only signing it for "shits and giggles", as they say -- no doubt to express their frustration, of course.

I'd totally accept that!
But... what if Obama takes this petition and makes it the subject of his Thanksgiving speech instead?! His nerd level will breech 9000!! For Kirino, I must say this season made her so much more likeable. The ending was silly, almost forced. But I'd be lying to never say that I did not at least smile at how everything ended. Still, there is that one concern. Kannagi was destroyed by a hinted existence of a boyfriend. OreImo will most likely see an inquisition never before seen since the witch hunts. Winter is coming. But I applaud the author for her/his bravery nonetheless.

Nah, I think you've slightly misinterpreted the reason for the anger (although I'll say right now that I find the whole thing stupid and exaggerated anyway). The issue was the suggestion that Nagi had a boyfriend before the protagonist -- in order words, that she had been "defiled". (Like I said, I think it's stupid and the "outrage" was greatly exaggerated by tabloid blogs.) In this case, the fans will still be mad that their favourite heroine didn't "win", but not for that particular reason. Kirino has been in love with Kyousuke forever.
