Well, the kyoudai bit is correct, I know that means siblings and can refer towards both brothers and sisters, but I'm not sure on the 'ore-tachi' part, ore is a male term last I checked.

[Soljashy]

I don't think 兄弟 is used unless at least one of the siblings is male. Which they probably are, if you're using 俺.

Edit: For sisters, 姉妹 ("shimai") is often used.

Please pardon the double-post – I do this for the sake of tidiness.

Spoiler for "Soljashy's translation:

It Takes Two to Tango

Panel 1
Reinforce: I'm quite confident about my proportions when I'm at normal size.
You should see me undressed!

Panel 2
Agito: Yeah, coz I'll bet you're as much a flat-chested chibi undressed as you are dressed!

Panel 3
Nyah! // taunting sound
Reinforce: I'm not flat-chested!!

Panel 4
They got scolded.

I hope I got the context right.

Panel 1
Subaru: Teana! Let's see who's best at the Shooting Range!!
Teana: The shooting range?

Panel 2
Teana: You asked for it!
Teana: Just who do you think you're up against?

Panel 3
Subaru: ...Teana~!

Panel 4
Subaru: You got carried away and shot too much~! \n Our luggage...
Teana: Sh... Shut up~!

I changed "target practice" to "shooting range" based on the assumption that a stand at a festival is more likely to be named so.

Spoiler for slightly risque and not work safe:

The Housekeeper (At least I believe that's what those kanji mean) is Watching - Yuri sandwich (An obvious parody of Maria-sama ga Miteru. And I'm not kidding about the sandwich part)

Aaaaw, Subaru/Ix fanart of the tearjerking moment in the SSX.

[krisslanza]

That has to be the most awesome Fate picture I have ever seen. Ever. I must now clearly find some excuse to somehow use that for something. D:

Okay in that case, what would be the correct phrase when it's all sisters who are saying "We are siblings"?

[Keroko]

Wouldn't that be something along the lines of "Watashi-tachi wa shimai desu"?

Possibly, but I'll wait for someone who knows Japanese well to help me on this, but I will keep that in mind :3

As for why I'm asking, I'm considering doing a story between the Cyborg sisters :3

What is their group name again though? O.o

They are called the "Numbers".

I know that, but I want to know their Japanese name.

Edit: Nvm, I just found it XD Seitoukijin.

Yeah. What Keroko said is correct. You could flavour by using Atashi-tachi/Boku-tachi instead of Watashi-tachi :3

[Keroko]

Wouldn't boku-tachi make more boyish, though?

It would be, though not as much so as 'ore-tachi.' I forget when girls actually use 'boku' to refer to themselves...

Tom-boys would most likely use the male term "boku", either that, or male who have been gender-bent into females, with Hazumu from Kashimashi being a prime example of the latter.
