By the way, since I just finished translated Vol 12 Afterwords a few minutes ago, here is my impression about OreImo as a whole and vol 12 (or you might call it translator's rant). Please forgive if some part sound weird, I was kind of in a trance when I typed it. Spoiler for Translator's impression/Translator's rant:

I just want to thank the translator for doing this for us. I really enjoyed the stor, one of my favorite ever
I was actually rooting for Kirino since the beginning, but as they were siblings I would have been content if they had just settled their differences and been on good terms, I was actually thinking he was going to end with Manami of Kuroneko. The one thing I did not want is for them halfway or at the end of the series to pull a "oh but we aren't related by blood!" scenario, as it would have been such a cop out an would have ruined all the tension in earlier scenes. I applaud the author for ending it the way it did, it could have been a true open ended ending but I personally hate those, and this one while the future is uncertain, I feel that everyone confirmed their feelings. again thanks to everyone that worked on this I really appreciate it, one of the most unique rom com endings out there and I thoroughly enjoyed it

(This can't end well....) Beside, considered that even Manami didn't know, I suspect that during that limited time, Kyousuke considered they are true lover, thus there is no need to mention that time limit. |

^ That info should be here, just go to part 2. That should show you how to set spoiler tags.
For more information you can go to the Spoiler Policy Q&A thread.

^^ It's confusing tho. Of course they are lovers, no doubt(they still are anyway). He loves Kirino so Kuroneko would be rejected anyway. About the Manami incident, we all know why Kirino wanted to say the agreement before Kyousuke stopped her, mixed feelings about this, can't come up with words.

In fact, I honestly wonder if they're ever even going to tell them anything changed even after the fact. I'm guessing there's no reason to tell them, because it would only re-open old wounds. If they want to keep on believing that Kyousuke and Kirino are in that kind of relationship, given that they've already accepted it anyway, it's probably better that way. Basically, the "time limit" was just them bargaining with themselves. It's like people who indulge themselves and eat way too much food and sweets during the holidays (or any other vice; smoking, gambling, whatever...), but convince themselves that it's okay because they'll go back to their regular routine when it's all over. This way they could allow themselves to do whatever forbidden thing they wanted during that time, with the excuse that they needed to get it out of their system before the deadline. The only thing it did is it made them feel better about that "bad things" they were doing at the time; as Kyousuke said, it eliminated the anxiety they both felt. But it implies that they weren't going to get addicted, and that they'd actually be able to stop. And the epilogue essentially shows that they couldn't really stop, as expected; she's still having him indulge her, and he still loves her (and she still loves him too, of course). So their little bargaining game was completely pointless (as it usually is), hence they're back to "life counselling". In other words: the time limit was a convenient lie they both allowed themselves to believe so they could move forward without worry, which is a theme that should sound awfully familiar by now.

Thus ending a romantic relationship as the one that Kirino and Kyousuke have would be one of the hardest things in the world to do, imo anyway. |

I think i will use it for now. Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai is a bit too long, while My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute will make me appear like a siscon to those who don't know (rather than bring up their curiosity) But tell me if anyone think of a better one. As long as it can suggest that it is about or from Kirino

Can't translate it directly from Japanese. What I can tell is it says something about the day before Christmas, Kyousuke walking on the street while its snowing, something about the story that began with Kirino's life counseling is heading for the climax. You could always use Google Translate . But for those who had other hopes / doubts this preview confirms that there is only one ending in the anime.
