What a great first episode, really funny in parts and looks to be very good.
Although, I'm suprised why he was suprised that there was a Japanese style closet in his house, I don't actually know this, but did they remove those from newer Japanese homes? |

Besides that most of what was going to say has been said, I liked the first episode I enjoyed it and I felt the VA for both main characters seems to fit well, though I'll wait more to judge that for sure, but I definitely like Kirino already . Also love OP, and look forward to Ayana's singing for the ED xD.
Glad to know someone had the exact same though I did when she said that line . So that thing with ANN does this mean series being licensed already or no?

That surprised me. I have no idea where this is going (haven't read the manga, obviously) and I sort of enjoy that fact. Obviously, wincest and shota traps have become the new moe of 2010, and maybe I expected this series to follow that path - but there's more here than meets the eye. It's very strange and should be more than a little creepy, but somehow it isn't. I had vibes of B Gata H Kei, actually - a show that appeared on the surface to be going for shock-value and titillation ended up being something smart, funny and genuinely moving at times.

Apparently someone was miffed hard enough to neg me for saying I was annoyed that this show had high production values / a big budget. Frankly put I think this show is pure forgettable marketed drivel, the sister is little more then taking Haruhi, making her an otaku, and say, Kyon's sister at once. It just urks me that the show looks so god damn good because to me that's just such a waste. There are other shows out there this season that would have greatly benefited from the same tender love and care, and when this show is said and done I think it's visual appeal is about the only positive thing it had to rely on as the story and characters are pretty weak otherwise. I suppose it has to do with my disliking the whole 'onii-chan' bit and all that, actually having two younger sisters made me greatly dislike those mannerism quite early on.

Well, I also have two younger sisters, but I have to side with Kirino in this episode when she pointed out that, at least in my mind, there's absolutely no relation between the "sister archetype" in anime/games and anything resembling real life. It's totally fictional, and not even realistic at all... at least IMO... (but if people who don't have sisters want to pretend it is, then by all means... )

Well, it really depends on where this goes from here, but from the first episode this feels very refreshing compared to your standard little sister fetish characters that you see in nearly everything else. I'd be very disappointed if it veers into incest territory or even if Kirino develops in that direction, but I don't really see that happening so far. |

We'll see. @ winkel: I hate it when you (and others) make sense. I enjoy being grumpy and stubborn damn it. Haha.

We'll see, but I'd like to give it the benefit of the doubt for now. Edit: On the other hand, I would not be too surprised if it does end up being typical. |
