Spoiler for Continuation Volume 12:

- Akagi completes the purchase, while maintaining that cool aura.
- Kyousuke says to himself that in certain kind of situations he certainly acts like a pervert, but he compared to Akagi he is a little kitten (I took my liberty in translating that construction)
- Kyousuke continues his inner monologue, that posing as a couple is already incredible enough, but acting lovey-dovey like a stupid couple is really mind-boggling. He assures the reader, that he is not envious of Akagi in any way!
- He then continues about, how incredible Akagi is in the way he requested that game.
- Then Kyousuke himself, of course, calmly and decisively asks for an eroge 'Christmas, Holy Night' (once again, too lazy to look for a proper translation) and a limited special edition product.

- ".... was there a need to say that in such a big voice?" "The more decisive you are, the less embarrased you are, right?"
- "I am not talking about you! I'm saying that I was very embarrassed! 'The boyfriend of that super-cute girl is really buying an eroge!' Speaking this these people were pointing towards me!"
- "This eroge was bought on behalf of you anyway." "Right now it's not time to talk about this issue!"
- The continue their quarrel, even as the go into other stores to shop. Even though their main objective was participating in that event, they of course have to go and look in other stores. Kyousuke says to himself that this is probably the way how Otakus behave.
- After finishing the shopping spree they start to walk back towards the station. Kyousuke's arms and shoulders are packed with Kirino's merchandise. It's 2PM.
- "You have been pouting long enough. Now, look at this." Kyousuke takes out that special limited product they bought and gives it to his imouto-loving imouto.
- "You, you really believe that you can calm me down using this................ Heh~ It's so cute ♡" (I think the merchandise is some kind of H Christmas eve figurine, not sure though)
- Now, you calmed down in an instant! Even I am astonished. It was very effective...
- Kirino then says something about that figurine, and points out the discount it was given.
- Kyousuke asks her, that whether she really thinks he can identify the worth of such a product by the pattern of the clothing.
- Kirino says, by the look of him she would say yes.
- Kyousuke: "Ah, let it be... we are at the station. If somebody spots that they will say 'Uh, this cool guy's girlfriend is happily pulling the skirt on that ero-figure' while pointing at us"
- "How can that be?" Kirino gives him a cold stare. "Ok, take that."
- With this they leave Akiba.

I wanted to read this light novel but ı was worried about incest in the series so decided to wait till the end. well it seems I made a good decision. ı have a sister and ı would be ruined if she learned that I was reading an incest book. it is normal for brother to love his sister but feeling of love. Iykk I feel disgusted. and this coming from someone who is not mindful about gays(well just to say I am not gay )

[Kakurin]

A whole lot of text coming... Wow, this guy's working hard. Another part posted online. It's like 4AM in China.

my sister and i actively ship incest. I wouldn't mind in the least intercourse with my older brothers... I guess it depends on siblings huh??
Though I must say in your case, waiting was a great idea!

I also met a girl who enjoys NTR, and that shocked me more than this x 100.

It isn't awkward at all. Me and my imouto are watching/reading this series,too (watched YnS,Koi Kaze etc. as well; I even play imouto eroge,too).But that doesn't mean that we are in love with each other or that it's awkward or anything.

I'm almost jealous of everyone with cool imouto's. Mines a raging bitch that surpasses even Kirino.

Well, as I have said before, a vast majority of this series doesn't have anything of the sorts in it. Well there might be hints at such a development later on, nothing happens until way later on so I wouldn't really call it a incest story.

That is what I like to call dedication, hopefully he continues doing this till its done although that might be to optimistic considering the time zone he is in.

It looks I need more training in order to understand the differing perspectives of humans.
Wait, I'm an idiot. == By definition, this relationship isn't incestuous or illegal at all. If there is no sexual intercourse, the courts can't try them on the claim of an incestuous relationship.

[relentlessflame]

Just want to make a little reminder about two things:

1. Do not ask about or link to raws, which is forbidden by the Forum Rules.

2. If you want to offer thanks to people doing summaries/translations, please do so via VM/PM rather than having a slew of "thanks" posts in this thread.

そこで京介は、もう別れたはずなのに不意討ちのキスをしました。
１０巻の桐乃の『何でも言うことを聞いてあげる』という伏線も無事に回収できました。」

Hmmmmm, not sure I like the sound of this.
So Kyousuke used his free wish from Vol. 10 to get the final kiss?

Well,they kissed twice.Isn't that illegal or do you have to "sleep with your sister" to break the law?

I doubt it is illegal because by definition a kiss doesn't fall into the category of sexual intercourse.

Well, even if that is the case, it still keeps the door wide for what happens after that because it makes it clear to Kirino what his real wish is: to continue their romantic relationship. So even if that was the excuse he used, the message it sends to Kirino is clear. The effect is the same.

Only sexual relations are illegal... people kiss their family/siblings all the time, and the law doesn't say "you can kiss on the cheek, but not on the lips!"

Well,that is actually a good thing to know. (still it's kinda dumb,because a kiss on the lips is definitively a intimate thing to do)

Even if this is the case, it really doesn't change the way that the final kiss should be interpreted. If anything, it makes the ending that much more clear to me. Kyousuke used his one wish to kiss her again which is the same thing as him saying he still loves her. He could have asked her for a multitude of other things, yet he used it this way which speaks volumes.

[Gundamx]

I guess the problem is that kyouske love to kirino come out of blue
there was no hint from volume 1 to 10 that he love her romantically and in last volume > BAAM > he love her romantically
I guess author plan to have Kirino Ending from the beginning
but because this is last volume he end up cutting a lot of stuff
(his love to Kirino should start from volume 11+ little by little not out of nowhere like "I Love Kirino romantically !!!")

And even Minami character been change a lot
e.g: When she get angry at him:
-first time he is not scare even if she was angry
-second time he was so afraid if she was really angry
-third time he was not afraid if she was angry but know it will be bad since she can use word to control the flow if she get angry
-finally she just enter "street fighter" mode when she get angry

As long as it doesn't involve the genitalia(sex organs), it cannot be considered sexual intercourse.
On-topic: I'm surprised that no one made any fan fiction yet since the response to the novel was very polar.
