It seems this anime will be relevant to my interests.

Won't comment too much since I never read this one, though...

As for who'll voiced the imouto, I'm going with Ayana Taketatsu (Running)

I wouldn't count on Ayana-san because she has that "tsun" feel when it comes to Imouto characters, and Akiko (the lead Imouto character) isn't tsun at all. I could be wrong but that's just me.

I think Kana Ueda, Kanae Itou or Ai Nonaka are my best bets.

Would it kill them to animate something that hasn't been done a million times before?

Someone brought up Hentai Ouji earlier, why couldn't they animate THAT?

P.S. What's left in terms of LN I know...Hentai Ouji is I think getting animated (don't remember whether it's ever confirm), and the only other one from the top of my head is Mahouka Kouko no Rettosei...

Same.
I prefer this LN much more than Nakaimo so I'm glad that this also got animated

Kirino's one of her most famous roles but really she isn't limited to tsun characters at all.

The Plot Summary in the OP is kind of bare so here's the one from mangaupdates:

After being separated from each other for 6 years since the death of their parents, fraternal twins Akito Himonokouji (brother) and Akiko Himonokouji (sister) had finally reunited together again during the holidays thanks to some planning from Akito, despite objections from both of their adoption families. Being happy that Akito had fulfilled his promise to be with her again, Akiko confessed readily that she had incestuous love in Akito, and will not hesitate to do anything to win the love of Akito. Akito however does not harbor the same feeling for Akiko, and as a result has a headache with Akiko's actions. Despite all these, he still loves Akiko as a sister, and finds her adorable and cute, especially when he had not seen her since she was 10 years old.

I'm looking forward to it, seeing Akiko's antics animated should be a good laugh.

IMO...the only reason why I bring up Ayana is only b/c of the fact that she voiced the imouto that starts the floodgate (somewhat) of imouto LNs...

Personally I think they're "saving" it as a "secret" weapon...

Personally, I think there was a LOT of imouto LNs before Oreimo became hot.

Finally I can see Anastasia in her full glory. Yay!

Now we just have to wait for the info about which studio doing this ..

Btw, considering this was announced in summer .. the airing date would be .. winter 2013?

I'm going to bet on Zexcs, just for the fun of it.

What's with this correlation of incest-themed anime with horrifically long titles?

Maybe to catch the eyes of the Imouto/wincest lovers more easily? "Shrugs shoulders"

LNs these days, regardless of the themes, have insanely long titles. Don't ask me why, it's the current trend.

Marcus H. · 2012-05-18, 22:58

^ Long titles for light novels are more often seen in slice-of-life novels, though. Fantasy or Sci-Fi light novels often have straight-to-the-point titles like Sword Art Online and High School DxD.

I'm not saying that they don't exist before Oreimo. But how many of them even sale over 10k or is well known? Alternatively, if you can even name a few...

On a side note, while this will be on my "to watch" list (So is Nakaimo), last I check the review of this series and Nakaimo on Amazon are not exactly the best...

DragoonKain3 · 2012-05-19, 02:17

Hmm... noticed its written by the same person who wrote Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun, admittedly one of my guilty pleasures when the anime aired. Looking at what little info is there on the web about it (unfortunately my Japanese friends didn't like it as they think its an Oreimo ripoff so no info from them), it doesn't seem like there's a childhood friend this time around though.

C'mon Suzuki-sensei, maybe make blonde girl the forgotten osananajimi? (after all there were 2 in Ninomiya-kun) Heck, I'd be happy if Imouto-san is merely just not blood-related lol

I think it's quite different from Oreimo .. Akiko & Kirino are way too different if you ask me, personality-wise and whatnot.

You should read the LN if you want to know .. OR you can just wait for the anime, and find out about it.

Lord of Fire · 2012-05-19, 12:31
