Spoiler for Last part of Chapter 1:

- After thirty minutes the lights in their room are killed. On the notebook screen is a bustup of that game. Standing before the screen is a tiny cake. This dark room is only illuminated by the romantic light of candles.
- "... Huhuhu.... Christmas-tan (I think she's called Christmas that character....), merry christmas"
- Kirino holds her face with both hands and looks quite happy at the sight of that bustup. The tiny cake was bought by Kyousuke at the request of Kirino. At the sight of his imouto Kyousuke freezes.
- Kyousuke asks Kirino about this setting. After a little conversation with Kirino asking Kyousuke whether he truly doensn't know about it, she says something it's a Christmas ceremony, known by every erogamer. They continue to talk about that ceremony, with Kyousuke somehow in doubt about it.

- Suddenly Kirino asks Kyousuke to sing a song with her. Kyousuke is surprised, but sees that Kirino's eyes are serious. So on Christmas eve they sing a song in a hotel, accompanied in the background by the eroge. Kyousuke thinks that he will never forget this scene.
- Afterwards they play the main route for a few hours.
- "It's about time we leave. Although with the story progressing it's not the ideal time."
- "No, halting the story at this point is pretty good."
- Kirino changed her spirit very cleanly, stretches a little after saving the game.
- "Huh~ I'm satisfied~ I will look at the rest back at home!"
- Next, it's going to watch the Skytree nightview!

- Kyousuke thinks about how this Christmas already far surpassed last years' with the events of buying clothes in Harajuku, buying eroge in Akiba, playing eroge in the hotel, being together with his imouto. And it's after sunset, that they really enter Christmas. But..
- "The sky's full of clouds! I mean... clouds everywhere!"
- It's cloudy."
- The situation is, the arrived at the Skytree platform, and it's cloudy. Kirino of course is not happy about that.
- "What are you going to do now? There is no way to see the nightview like this!"
- "Ok, ok... if you want to complain, complain to the Heavens."
- This does nothing to calm Kirino's mood, so Kyousuke takes Kirino on a walk on the Skytree.
- Then a description of the Skytree and the surroundings follow.
- Kyousuke remarks how this is like one a spaceship. Kirino asks him if he ever was on a spaceship. Her anger apparentely still hasn't subsided.
- Many couples are on that platform.
- Kyousuke: "Oi, oi, Kirino, the attitude of this girlfriend is very likeable, telling the apologizing boyfriend 'It's not your fault, nothing can be done.'!"
- He thinks how about Kirino learning something from that girl.
- "This boyfriend is sincerely apologizing, then look at yourself, immediately pushed the responsibility up to the Heavens, what do you think about that?"
- Kyousuke points towards a big screen, where they show the view that normally can be seen from up there.
- Then a fireworks show begins. Kyousuke thinks about how this is the first time that he witnesses this kind of fireworks. The firework patterns are very clear
- ".... just like Kirino's face."
- "You said something?"
- Kyousuke asks Kirino to go to another spot on the Skytree, even though it's cloudy. He thinks about how these could really disrupted his entire plan.
- "... Ok, Ok, I know, I know. Ease up... I will stay with you until the end." "... Oh"
- Kyousuke says to himself that after all this complaining, she once again shows a little tenderness.

- At least the situation can't get any worse ----
- Then, my prayers reached the Heavens, after going to the lookout platform by elevator, the miracle happened.
- "-------It's snowing"
- "---------White Christmas"

- Kirino runs to the windows and claps her hands
- "......Uh, hah........"
- It's not only us. Smiles appeared on the faces of other couples when they saw this surprise.
- .... When the sky was full of clouds I really though I my luck was so bad.
- Haha, in the end I am a really lucky guy.
- I also naturally started to smile.
- "............. How is it. Beautiful, right?"
- "It wasn't your work. You also did not say you looked at the weather report."
- Kirino stares into the skyline, not moving her eyes. Even though these are cold statements, they can't hide the joy and smile in it.
- "Haha, that's right, it wasn't my work."
- ------Thank you, Heavens.
- The lights that don't lose to the clouds, illuminate on the ground.
- There, the white snow dance descends.
- "............Really, so beautiful."
- "Is that so, if it's that way, then it's good."
- The more excited humans are, the less words they speak.
- Us two, in this atmosphere, continue to look at the road that is being painted white by the snow flocks.
- Two people
- Two siblings
- The surrounding couples also create their very own space
- I also can no longer hear any surrounding noise.

--------- Good, let's do it.

[Then the ending I posted]

Something like a pastebin would probably be better.

[Kakurin]

Hmm, perhaps. But I really am tired now. If you want to, you can set it up. The compiled summary / translation is in the post above you. Good night.

For those that want it, first chapter.

[Arkard]

I don't really find the ending ambiguous. Once those two crossed that line, I really don't see how they can ever go back.

It's really not that difficult, love/lust isn't infinite.

That's one reason I think makes some not see any hint regarding Kyosuke loving Kirino in a romantic way. If you take away the sibling part, and have someone do all Kyousuke did for a girl, I think many would agree he likely may have feelings for her, even if he denies it to others and to himself. The fact that he is his brother, means that it's indeed a possibility he does all that just because he cares for her as a sibling, but that don't negate the possibility that he does that because he have romantic feelings for her.

Some would only accept it if he did something more than what just a brother would do. But what exactly is that? Besides things like kissing and doing things of sexual nature (which are things you would expect them to do after they started an relationship) what is that an brother who cares a lot for his sibling in a non romantic way would do that a person who loves someone in a romantic way wouldn't do? Going with their whims? Both would. Helping them without expecting something in return? Both would. Risking their life? Both would.

The pendulum swings both ways here so it could have turned out either way. The issue is everything leading up to his decision doesn't really add up to "I'm not going to confess my love for Kirino." He remembers his life as a little busy body middle schooler who wanted to help everyone and make his sister look up to him and make it so she wont cry.

What the hell does this flashback do to flip this "I now want to be with my sister" switch? He constantly talks about how pretty she is in the novel but it is always in a matter of fact way because the author continues to reintroduce characters in basically every novel. I still don't buy the line of logic to get from a brother who's reconnecting with his estranged sister to "let's get married." I feel like because of the years of mutual neglect and his busy body attitude returning he wanted to do whatever he could to help Kirino... now that he knows she's basically in love with him he again plays the knight in shinning armor like he does for everyone over the course of the novels.

I don't think this necessarily is what flipped the switch of his feelings, but it's giving him the courage to act on them. The story is basically about him regaining his confidence/initiative. Rather than being a boring/"normal" person that goes with the flow, he's becoming more assertive again. Note the huge contrast between the first Christmas "date" with Kirino, and the second one. In the first, she led him around everywhere and "forced" him to do things with her, and he begrudgingly went along with it. And now, in the second, he had it all planned, he took the initiative, and was doing what he wanted to do, recognizing that what he wanted was to make her happy.

So basically, remembering his old self gave him the courage to go after what he really wanted, even if it seemed (and was) reckless and crazy. He could break out of the "normal" mould that would keep him from doing what he needed to do.

I don't really see the huge missing link here. She's the most important person in his life, and he wants to make her happy. He probably does recognize that she loves him too, but she believes that can't work out, so she's planning to go overseas again (and this time to do it properly). But he's been through that before, and he knows that won't make either of them truly happy, and he's the only one that can change that. In a way, she set-up that whole situation to give him one last chance to stop her. And so he admits the underlying truth: that he's in love with her, and he doesn't want her to leave ever again -- hence the "marriage proposal". He's trying to make her happy, but that's what makes him happy -- precisely because he loves her. That's why he chose her and her happiness over all the other possibilities.

What other "logic" does he need to be convinced of his true feelings?

[tommythecat]

I agree with everything you say but making her happy doesn't necessarily translate to them being together. You're right that she wants to be the most important part of his life and he wants to make her happy and yet after they've proven to each other that they will be the one chosen over everyone else they amicably accept to end it.

Yes it could be love of a fully romantic type, but I think and I hope after reading the novel it will translate to something a little more deep than that. I'm not saying incest end isn't possible here what I was saying is that I don't necessarily think it's that cut and dry. Maybe it is maybe it isn't. I need to read every word before I'll accept that it is moved from siblings that couldn't be honest that they love each other and are making up for lost time to somewhere along the way for whatever reason they fell in love with each other.

If you like a 'realistic' reason, how about both go back to avoid hurting the others more? If that relationship is found out, both are screwed, especially Kirino since she is more famous.

Well, then it really all comes down to how you interpret that very last scene, doesn't it? I mean, if everything he did for Kirino earlier was just to make her wish come true and give her a bit of happiness before they both moved on from those feelings and went back to being "normal siblings", then why use his wish on that kiss after everything else was settled?

But anyway, we will all have to wait for the every word to be written before coming up with a true, final answer.

Yeah pretty much, and I don't want to interpret it in a vacuum. I want the context of all the events played out before I can judge just what that last scene represents. The reason I view that last scene with a grain of salt at the moment is because Kyousuke when embracing the siscon insult Kirino always threw his way teased her with the sticker of them and the swimsuit photo of Kirino on his phone in front of Saori and Kuroneko. You can view the kiss as the same type of thing, albeit far more extreme but essentially they're back to that old atmosphere.

Now that I think about this, that possible interpretation really doesn't make sense. If Kyousuke just wanted to pull a prank on Kirino, he'd just pull a prank. He wouldn't have to bring up the promise at that particular time. The combination of the kiss + evoking the promise that she's do anything he wished makes the message he's sending pretty clear.

But anyway, we shall wait on the details.

[Kakurin]

First part of Chapter 2 (Ayase, that much I can reveal here):

Spoiler for First Part Chapter 2:

- December
- I'm standing next to the apartment, face to face with Ayase.
- She wears the barrette that Kirino once gave her.

- Because it is a very precious item---- therefore she only wears it on special occasions.

- That's how she once described the story of this barrette.
- "Really... You really are a hopeless person." She sighs in a ridiculing fashion.
- "Onii-san truly is an incredible liar." Her voice suddenly turned serious.
- "And an ero, a hentai, a siscon, a lolicon, and beyond that a masochist." Tears are beginning to form in her eyes.
- "Every time we meet you're always sexually harassing me, angering me." Her voice is trembling and decreasing in strength.
- "Always acting like a good person and meddlesome..." She brushes away the tears with her sleeve, raises her head and her voice once again determined.
- "You're slow off the mark, affectionate beyond reason, leaving me at a loss."

- "It, it is this kind of you, that I like (love)"

- We are finally at a point, where I have to talk about this scene.
- You can say I'm here setting up the framework, so, at this point, let me set up this framework. Let me explain the aftermath of that confession.
- --------- Before I reply "My answer is", I first tell you about the memories that me and Ayase have accumulated and hope you will get to know more about them.
- So, let us turn back the clock, turn back the clock on our relationship and tell you about the affair of that time.
- October.
- I was beginning my preparation for the exams, while living alone. Ayase was my 'caretaker' and every day was like 'working as a wife'.
- It's about what happened that time.

- Heaven and hell all of a sudden were sitting next to each other.
- Even though I'm suddenly starting like it's some kind of story with deep meaning, I'm really beginning to think that my days are really like that. Every day returning from school,

- "Welcome back, onii-san."

- She was like an angel, wearing an apron, coming to the entrance to welcome me back.
- Is there a situation that would make a man even happier than this ---------- Ah, no!
- "I'm back, Ayase."
- Then "What are you doing, such a scene! Really like a newly wed couple!" Such thoughts ran through my head as I greeted her.

- "Mhm. By the way, may I ask what that is?"

- She was like a demon, holding a kitchen knife in one hand, while taking out an ero-magazine.
- Is there a situation that is even scarier than this ------------ Ah, no!
- "................................"
- I was standing still at the entrance, cold sweat ran down my body, while beginning to defuse that situation.
- "Nah....... Ayase. Before we talk about seriously----- would you mind putting your knife away?"
- Ayase turned her head in a very cute fashion, it was so cute, that I wanted to take a picture and save it-----------but her eyes were not smiling!
- "How, how to put it, was I instinctively terrorized, or was I being considerate about our futures."
- "......huh? Ahm, this is possible... but"
- Ayase sported a cold stare, while she closed her lips.
- "Anyway, don't stand here and come in first, ok?"
- "...... thank you."
- I mean, this is my home, right.
- No matter whether Ayase, or Kirino, or Kuroneko, or Saori, why do girls always act this inconsiderate.
- Huh... but at least I don't have to fear getting killed---- just as I was thinking that
- "....Oi, Ayase, what are you doing with that bugspray in your hand."
- "What do you think?"
- ".... are there cockroaches at home?"
- "..........................stare"
- "Don't stare at me! What? Are you seeing me as an harmful bug?!"
- "Heh, although I am surprised that onii-san has such a self-awareness, please don't assume something while I haven't said anything yet and get angry."
- "You don't have mean it in any other way, don't you?!"
- Don't you think this behaviour is over the top?
- Having set aside the knife, Ayase, armed with a new weapon, puh, puh, puh started a poison attack at the air, while being in a real cute posture.
- "This bugspray.......... is also poisonous for humans~"
- I think this was Ayase's indirect way of saying 'I want to kill you'. But facing this unavoidable situation I said
- "OK, let's talk about this matter."
- I put forward my arms to signal Ayase to sit down. Then we put that stuck-together boatload of ero-magazines in the middle, and sat down face to face. Ayase repeated her previous words in a scary tone.
- "I'm asking you again.... what is that?"
- ".... H-magazines."
- I immediately admitted it......... there were no other options left, right?
- "Huh, really."
- Ayase blanked her eyes.
- Ahh, these are my precious magazines... are they going to be thrown out just like that. By the way, I hid them in a really tough spot, this woman honestly was able to find them. So scary.
- "Onii-san... why are you looking at me with such a defiant look? Don't you think it's very indecent to let a girl find these magazines?"
- "I was hiding them very well, wasn't I. You specifically search out those items, then say I'm indecent, isn't it a little bit wrong?"
- "It's not like that! And--- and the existence of those magazines here is a bad thing in the first place!"
- "I understand, so don't puh puh puh, spray that bugspray around!"
- The room began to stink.
- "A, a, a, a, anyway, this matter is like that!"
- Rustle, Rustle, Rustle... Bang!
- Ayase pulled a magazine out of the stack and hammered it onto the floor.
- "Why is a magazine with my picture in it, hidden among those!?"
- "......this really is a tough question."
- How should I answer this question.
- "Is my swimsuit picture of the same matter as those ero-magazines?"
- Your swimsuit is indeed very H.
- But as I already promised not to sexually harass her, how can I tell her that.
- Thus I said it like that
- "This is a misunderstanding, Ayase."
- ".........Where have I erred?"
- "This magazine also contains a picture of Kirino in a swimsuit."
- "That's even worse! You hentai!"
- With a bang, both the physical and verbal abuse exploded upon my head.
- "You, you honestly threw that bugspray! This is not the way to use it, you know!?"
- "Don't start a sidetopic! O..onii-san really looks at Kirino in a shameful way..."
- "I'm saying it's not like that!"
- Until I can make Ayase accept this act, how often will I have to be the victim of the killer kick.
- That you can imagine.
- .....By the way, all of Ayase and mine's memories are like that.

Again doing a good job and lol Kyousuke you hentai

Well hey. we are both free to interpret things differently assuming no concrete evidence is in hand. That's the fun thing about literature it can mean different things to different people... though I admit I may be looking for deep sea fish in shallow waters here...

[Kakurin]

Continuing chapter 2, this Chinese guy is working like a machine.

Spoiler for Part 2 Chapter 2:

- The days of heaven and hell were still continuing.
- The Saturday after that day, Ayase already arrived at my home in the morning and began to do housework. Of course I told her many times 'You don't need to do it to such a degree', but the already determined Ayase answered with a smile on her face
- "--------Because it's Kirino's wish. Furthermore, I just can't......... leave onii-san aside and don't care."
- Seen in this light, that truly is an angel.
- Not in some fanblog, but one day wings will surely grow out of Ayase's back.
- Ayase put on a very cute apron with a teddy on it.
- It absolutely has the look of a newly wed couple. What's that? That clearly is excessive service!
- Oi, oi, Ayase, have you fallen in love with me~ I will come to a strange misunderstanding you know.~
- I really have to express my gratitued to Kirino.
- "Onii-san, I will be using the washing machine now. If the sound disturbs you, I'm really sorry."
- "Oh, something like that is nothing~"
- I came to the table while dwelling in my happiness, and started to concentrate on my studies.
- Rumble, rumble, the noise of the washing machine started to fill the apartment.
- Afterwards I continued to study for probably a couple of hours... Then I suddenly felt a gaze staring at the back of my neck.
- "?"
- I turned my head and saw Ayase sitting in the middle of the room, looking in my direction.
- "Is something?"
- "No.. nothing."
- "I.. is that so."
- I turned back while feeling a little bit strange.
- .................................................. ................................. I.. it really is bothersome!
- Once again I turned my head, indeed Ayase was still sitting at the same spot and looked at me without moving.
- ".... This.."
- "Eh... I, is something?"
- "........are you bored?"
- "...................."
- Ayase maintained her steadfast posture, her hands balled to fists, resting on her knees, turning her gaze into a direction.
- .........Looks like I hit the mark. Mah, because she arrived so early, she finished her work long ago.
- "Um.... please don't mind me and continue your studies."
- "Being stared at like that, I of course mind."
- "Then, what does onii-san want me to do?"
- How should I know.
- "What a fuss you are making."
- "I'm not making any fuss."
- No matter your tone, or your expression, you clearly are making a fuss.
- "Mhm... that means we just have to find something helping you pass the time."
- "For example? What?"
- "......a book... or something like that?"
- I cautiously peeked at one corner of the room, where my treasures where bound together, awaiting the day of garbage collection.
- "You, you honestly want me to look at those disgusting magazines!"
- "I haven't said anything, yet!"
- "That's sexual harassement! You hentai!"
- "I mean, why are you looking like you have a little bit of fun!"
- "I'm not making such an expression!"
- You clearly were! Nasty... lately this girl always resolutely understands my expressions in a sexual harassing way and starts to get mad. In truth I clearly didn't mean it that way.
- Perhaps in reality she gets lonely, when I'm not sexually harassing her? ---- Something like that, can't be, can it, but her actions are so strange I can't help but come to such weird conclusions.
- "If books are not OK... then perhaps a game?"
- "O... onii-san, you are living alone for the purpose of studying, why have you brought a game?"
- "Ah, no"
- "Heh~... There's no way I won't confiscate that..."
- She starts to speak like an overly protective mother! Right now, it really does seem that way. In the future Ayase's husband and children will have it very rough.
- Ayase starts to smirk and her hands are beginning to yearn for some action.
- "Then... where is it hidden? I must have already searched this entire apartment."
- "Oy! You just said something incredulous, you know!?"
- "Eh? I'm the one responsible for cleaning these rooms, so it's only natural to do something like this, isn't it?"
- "Don't just turn your head and act like you don't know anything! Your actions have even surpassed the range of what lovers are allowed to do!"
- "Lo, lo, lo, lover's what! I'm coming here for caretaking at the most... don't misunderstand it! Hmph!"
- Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this girl is really bothersome.
- Facing a frowning me, Ayase begins to carefully look for the game. So unfortunate, the game I was talking about is already installed on my computer. With that every one can pass their time. Thus, right now in this room, about this game --------------

- 'The Beginning of Imouto-wife ~ The Forbidden Life of the Two'

- there is no single disk, yo?
- ........not good.
- I don't know why, but the way Ayase happily searches for the game is like a sight out of hell.
- ".......but, but..........no problem." I whispered to myself.
- Explaining why, it's because after experiencing Kanako and dad's visits, I already hid the game in a very secretive place. (Of course I never played it. Not even once!)
- I not only changed the usual hiding venue (like the kitchen drawer, or the shoe cabinet), but also sealed it in a place that's very hard to find. Even Ayase can't find it.
- Why this is-----
- Let me surprise you. It's hidden on the top of the gigantic figurine cabinet in the corner of the room. Then this cabinet is covered by a piece of cloth and on top of that it's inside a box. Since Ayase once took down the cloth and saw those H-figurines, she never took it down again.
- Huhu.... victory is mine! Hiding it in a place that was already searched, my mind is really good."
- "Eh~~~~~ I see... It's hidden by that cabinet, isn't it?"
- "How did you know!?"
- I was shocked that I almost flew out of the room. Ayase blanked her eyes and looked at me with a worried expression.
- "That's because... onii-san always peeked towards that direction, how can't I be suspicious."
- "Da, damn it!" I completely turned dumb. Ayase's next actions are clear, even without telling.
- "Thus----- Game's confiscated"
- With a rustle, the cloth was taken down. Because of the H-figurines Ayase blushed in a cute way and proceeded to reach for the box.
- "It this one, right!"
- "Wa, wait Ayase! Don't open it!"
- "Wh, why are you struggling like that?"
- "Tha, that's because------------"
- Clack~ Before I had the chance to explain myself Ayase mercilessly opened the box----
- Imouto-genre eroge, meet Ayase-san.
- "..............................."
- "..............................."
- This! An awfully, unbelievably embarrassing silence! Not to mention that after Kanako and dad, it's the third time!?
- Shit! I want to kill that thug called Heavens!
- Even if it has to be revealed, it's not necessary to reveal it to such a scary person!
- "...........eh.......eh..........th, th, this............"
- But, seeing Ayase, who was embarrassed to the point of nearly tearing up due to suffering the shock of such a close encounter with an eroge package...... I really was a little bit excited.
- It doesn't count as sexual harassment, when I don't say it out aloud, but only think about it!
- While preparing for taking that killer kick, I started to print Ayase's H-expression into my eyes. But what followed next was not what I drew up in my mind.
- ".............this.........."
- "Hm? What?"
- "...........this.............this"
- Ayase tightly held the eroge, he face very red and looking onto the ground, speaking rather unclearly.
- She had something to say, but was too embarrassed to do so----------- that was what I felt. Therefore I asked her.
- "Are you saying... you want to try this game?"
- "How can that be! Idiot!"
- She resolutely pronounced her denial.
- "Then, what?"
- "Nothing... this game... Kirino gave it to you?"
- "..........yes, mhm."
- No misunderstandings it seems.
- ".....................Kirino......really wants to do this........for onii-san?"
- "Oy, oy! What mind-boggling things are you saying!"
- "Ah! I, I didn't mean it that way...! She, she didn't want me, in truth she wanted to come and take care of onii-san herself, that's the feeling I get when I look at this title!"
- "------------------------------"
- My eyes suddenly grew big.

- 'It's okay if you never come back, saying it in a super fresh tone!'
- 'You get the opportunity of having a wish that I will fulfill, no matter what it is'

- "........................if it's really like that, it would be great."
- I smiled from the bottom of my heart.

Spoiler for Part 2 Chapter 2:

- The days of heaven and hell were still continuing.
- The Saturday after that day, Ayase already arrived at my home in the morning and began to do housework. Of course I told her many times 'You don't need to do it to such a degree', but the already determined Ayase answered with a smile on her face
- "--------Because it's Kirino's wish. Furthermore, I just can't......... leave onii-san aside and don't care."
- Seen in this light, that truly is an angel.
- Not in some fanblog, but one day wings will surely grow out of Ayase's back.
- Ayase put on a very cute apron with a teddy on it.
- It absolutely has the look of a newly wed couple. What's that? That clearly is excessive service!
- Oi, oi, Ayase, have you fallen in love with me~ I will come to a strange misunderstanding you know.~
- I really have to express my gratitued to Kirino.
- "Onii-san, I will be using the washing machine now. If the sound disturbs you, I'm really sorry."
- "Oh, something like that is nothing~"

Just to clear things up, if i've missed it somewhere. He is doing the translation into English, isn't he?
