I'm surprised that they missed her first ''confession'' in S1. It would've made things somewhat clearer.
Edit: Just like I said and nearly everyone repeats, for those who found the ending surprising,re-watch/read and connect the dots and you'll get a clearer vision.

I'm still trying to guess exactly how they'll adapt the novels, but I'm supposing they might make Episode 14 a Kuroneko episode, Episode 15 follow the Christmas Date through to the confession and maybe the recordings, and Episode 16 be the confrontation, wedding and epilogue. They could throw a little bit more from Volume 11 into Episode 16 to help add a bit more context there too. I'm guessing that Kanako's scenes will be reserved for an audio drama with the last BD, and the "futon date" will be cut or only vaguely alluded to. Obviously, though, these are just my rough guesses, and we'll see how they do it in August.

I'm not saying it isn't possible she both hates and loves him but I think she loves him so much that she's sees his laziness as him slipping further and further away from her both romantically and brotherly. Unless you've lost someone you have extremely strong feels for, it's very hard to imagine how just that sense of loss can make you have feelings that seem like hate welling up inside you. It's the worst feeling of dread imaginable. Living for that many years with that feeling, I've very surprise Kirino didn't have a mental collapse. Even while suppressing it, it eats away at you...she is surprisingly strong willed. Last edited by Drakkar77; 2013-07-07 at 15:27. |

Thanks, bah 10 character min
Edit: @Wilshere, I was thinking about it and I don't recall any retaliation on Kirino's part for the incident involved in your avatar's photo. Other than incident w/ Ayase, and before they dated, were there even any more where he was in physical contact so closely in the story? I can't recall, there was the fake date wasn't there? I need to go back and read that. Given that she's a tsundere she seems to enjoy physical contact with Kyousuke a little too much in the story not to tip her hand. Wow, it's amazing what you finally notice when you know the end... Last edited by Drakkar77; 2013-07-07 at 07:41. |

I'm sure she would've won on the fans by just her being honest and well, showing her cute side. She would've gained a lot of love as they do for her now,that the series is coming to a conclusion.

The story was written to keep people guessing all the way to the last volume. This requirement/constraint required "plausible deniability", and so readers could imagine (a few) other scenarios that seemed quite workable. But, by the same token, the scenario set-up with Kirino also has foundation throughout the whole novel series as well, it's just that people didn't necessarily think the author would choose to take things that far between them. The author was deliberately tricky by making Kirino a character who could never be honest about her true feelings, and Kyousuke a bit of an unrealiable narrator (whose true feelings were being masked/obscured due, among other reasons, to the consequences to him), again, to keep people guessing. So I think the story on the whole does certainly support a Kirino-romantic ending. But, I also don't think it was the one-and-only possible way for the story to end. If the author had been less mysterious/tricky in his writing, I think it could have been written in such a way that was much more clear/obvious and would have been less of a "surprise"... but, by the same token, I think creating that sense of "surprise" was the point. But when you go back and read the rest of the story, knowing the way it will end, I think the pieces are in place to allow you to connect the dots. But again, it's an opinion. And I would also point out that Vexx has posted revised opinions too as more details/further information were available (though not entirely changing his view). Digging back through those old posts is, again, of dubious worth. Opinions evolved over time as we became aware of more facts.

I see a lot of people stating that the end was clearly obvious just because of the ''title''. I think it's clearly stated in the novels that its just his reaction whenever she smiles and shows gratitude and thanks to him,no other meaning.
