Almost *all* the anime we discuss here at Animesuki is "late night anime" with "very niche audience" with "certain tastes" oooookay.

I know, lol. But it only makes sense that the ones with qualities that appeal to them moreso will sell very well.

Ahaa i love this one. Probably his childhood time with Tamura helped him built resistance to girl's charm? I dunno.

I might be able to resist Kuroneko on the bed too... i think. But if she invites me to lie beside her.. or she gives her leg for me to rub, i dunno. I might badly regretting it if i ever reject her offer, but as a righteous man that has lived his life with morality for years, that's the only right way for me to do.








Ok screw that... i might as well eat her up on the bed. Its an offer that no man should ever reject.

The only voice that really counts to the anime industry are the sales figures and the response from the Japan viewing audience. They're finding the series very watchable.... the feelings on Kirino are more mixed I'm gathering (simply because of viewer access to the light novels and manga).
Judging by the 5th floor at the Akiba ToranoAna (and other such places) Kirino is plenty popular in Japan. In fact, all of the girls on this show seem to be astonishingly popular among the target audience, based on the fact that I assume they're most of the clientele on the 5th floor at ToranoAna and this was undoubtedly the most popular show used as subject material there.

Actually come to think about it, they really haven't had any physical contact at all. Maybe that'll change.

Well that and Kyousuke's physical contact with a female character is often being hit or kicked in the balls, perhaps he has been a bit traumatized. ;p

Wait there's Manami... poor Manami.

I expect something to change in the next episode.

And even if you did mean next episode, there wasn't anything shown in this episode proper, so nothing should be said at this point. The only advice you could be given is from the novels, and that's not allowed here. So probably better not to ask, and if you want spoilers there's the novel thread.

While I get the impression Kirino is more popular with Japanese fans than western ones in general, I think her ability to translate popularity into Bluray and DVD sales stems from one thing: like Konata before her, she's one of them - an otaku "icon".

Really, most Bluray/DVD juggernauts strike me more as being icons of otaku culture than merely shows people like, this one included.

It also helps that they could perceive characters as "one of them". Someone that shares one of your favorite interests; hey wouldn't you want to meet someone like that?!

Especially Konata, lol. I can totally imagine her as anime Comic Book Guy.

Although, that is a good idea....


Anyway, I have to say, these episodes make the novel truly come alive.

I only just realized that when she said she likes him as much as Kirino does, she meant it not in the way that he thinks she does but what all of us essentially believe that Kirino does. Which is to say a hell of a lot. Someone slap me.

^ That makes you about as dense as Kyousuke
Which isn't that bad, I guess. There are worse MCs than him around.

Okay - no worries. Was asking about the anime episodes and typed out "chapter". Didn't mean to "make trouble" or such. Apologies!
