I agree with Deathkillz. Twincest seems highly unlikely for this series.

being fan doesn't mean you have to believe it's gonna happen. hell, if anyone thinks it's gonna happen, they need to get their heads checked.

Anyone watch ep. 5 yet, It was a good episode but it just added a lot more questions into the mix. Its strange that I don't remember Sana talking to his mother in this episode, I might have to go back and check. Also it doesn't seem like Sana is the only one that has had a troubled past.

Spoiler for Creepy Stuff:

What was up with that fire memory Nanaka had, I know it had to do with why she doesn't play violin anymore but I'm guessing it is also the reason she doesn't live with her parents (time for more theories). And about that creepy old lady, what was with that final scene it really makes me feel like this show might turn into another Higurashi.

Well there is a chance. Who the fuck looks at their sister when they think of what they like in a girl. Saying the exact opposite of his sister while checking out his sister. Is just what makes it suspicious. Twincest or he's gay imo. xD

and i guess youve taken my words a bit too serious...chill ^^

you can't say for sure it wont happen unless your part of the writing team for the show. so don't call people crazy for having theories.

I must say that this is a pretty nice show, I just wonder if it will conclude smoothly at 13 episodes. I was fishing for opinions before trying it out and all I got were "It's meh" type responses. Now watching 5 episodes in succession, I'd have to say this is my favourite anime this season along with Shugo Chara. All the characters are likable (well, some may find Aoi annoying, but I think she's fine) and it's great to see that there's a bit more beneath the surface of this love-comedy.

I've got a good feeling about this. Scenario was done by the guy who did Ever17 and that was a brilliant game (albeit it the true ending was contrived), so I think at the very least this should be a fun ride.

I'm also liking the strong seiyuu cast. All of my favourites, and it's always nice to hear Ami Koshimizu, Yukari Tamura, Mai Nakahara and Takehito Koyasu.

Sana looks like a decent male lead, not something that can be said often. Hopefully his stock doesn't crash like Black Tuesday by the end of the show.

Especially if it isn't far fetched. Hell there are even signs that point to twincest. =o

Well if she's a good point of reference for what you don't want, I don't see why it's so strange. I think the most compelling reason for twincest is probably Shuu's reason for turning down Hinako. I think it's pretty obvious who the girl he's talking about is.

I wasn't responding seriously. I don't see why you're trying to play it down by insulting me. You act as if I responded like, "OMG HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY PRECIOUS TWINCEST!" That's not the case at all.

You wanna take a permanent ban bet on that? If I'm right, you're banned here from life. If you're right, I'm banned here for life. There are certain things that you know aren't going to happen.

Still in the standard anime set of rules. It might just as well be possible. While I do think the chance of not being Twincest is higher. There still is a pretty good chance.

He was not talking about Shuri, but was talking Aoi. In anime men never know what they want so fast and never are so outspoken about it. I do think Shuri has way more chance then Aoi. I mean come one we didn't even get one scene of Shuu taking a glance at Aoi.

No, because I'm not a betting man, and I'm not guaranteeing it will happen. I'm just saying stay open minded to the possibility and don't shot people down for having theories.

If the Aoi type of girl is what he like then why didn't he go for her during all these years? It wouldn't be strange or awkward so the real reason may be that he's lying.

Yeah pretty much what I was thinking. You could think that he didn't so Sana could have a chance(or Aoi a chance on Sana), but that wouldn't make sense since I do think that Shuu and Aoi already accepted the fact Nanaka and Sana are going to be a pair.

heeh whow yaya!! finally theres a thread on this current anime! it too hilarious and good..kiinda remind me of love hina anime too! i didnt know this anime has games. neway..this anime series if awsome.

[fict_ticious]

Wild and whacky theory: Sana is a robot/clone/android/robot-clone-android/some combination thereof implanted with the original Sana's memories. The watch is some sort of mechanical/biological trigger which counts down to his ZERO HOUR in which he ceases to function. Motive behind this turn of events: his family was distraught over not being able to grant his wish to see his childhood friends once again. Current Sana's internal conflict is to come to terms with his purpose and desire - to become a well enough replacement for the original Sana, and his desire to distinguish himself from whom he is to be a replacement for.

tl;dr: ends with lots of tears; some deep, existential thingy; the concert (supposedly) alluded to in the OP (to save the park or something) never comes to pass/comes to pass sans Sana, etc.

Holes that need to filled in:
- Sana's fear of blood - I had the idea that he was created prior to the original Sana's demise and murders him.
- Mother's relationship with current Sana - despite being his murderer, he is in the likeness of her son so she can't bring herself to have him exterminated (?)

Oh geez, I seem to have run out of coffee.

[rarukyu]

wow ep 8 already!? now we finally see as to why nanaka is the way she is and why sana was slapped at the beginning. now another thing is that watch of sana's.....another thing to fill in on about. so far i'm liking this series

[Verifin]

My theory is the following (based on old episodes):
The person who set Nanaka's house on fire was that old lady from the retirement home, something to do with how Nanaka looks like her granddaughter. It seems that that woman killed the kitten, placed it in the box and asked Sana and Hoshino to bury it. As for the end, perhaps that both Sana and Nanaka will end up together ( :P ).

Nice of you to translate that for others. Good job !

Spoiler for Asami's character:

Asami is definitely a dark character hidden in a cute little package. If you watch the game OP too you'll see she's got superiority complex written ALL over her. Definitely the most interesting character, at least from the game. This is why on niconico a lot of people suspect Asami is up to something in the anime.
