Finished Another. God those last two episodes were horrible. Oh and all those ridiculous time stalling methods that they borrowed from horror movies (I hate them...). The solution could have been brought after 4 episodes but then it was like 8 episodes of finding ridiculous excuses to why it can't be spoken out right now. And in the end at least half of the excuses didn't make sense at all. Prime example: "Why didn't you say anything (earlier)?" "Nothing good would have come from it." LOL Typical horror approach even if it wasn't horror at all.
4/10 because the music was good and the start was compelling and I enjoyed it at times as well...
You were warned. 
The show just gives up entirely on actually being a horror after it decides that someone inconsequential needs to die once an ep in increasingly ridiculous fashion. It basically loses all suspense at that point. The whole climax with the burning hotel felt more comical than horrific.

Don't give it a chance. It sucks. It was almost random enough to overcome mediocrity. Almost.
All I wanted was more episodes like the smoking ep. Alas, we got plot instead.

And she is not his waifu. She is Inaho waifu </3

So I started watching one true Tatsuya show. I'm assuming the whole sibling thing is explained somewhere along the lines but if say if they were actually the same person "split" in 2 would it still be incest?

Well, yeah... I really thought after the first three episode that it could be good, especially because someone recommended it to me that generally has a similar taste like me.
Interesting info though that the anime stretches a lot longer than the source.

In reality, she wouldn’t do anything of that nature with any boy save her brother. These were Miyuki’s true feelings. No, the real truth of the matter was that she detested all the other boys except for Tatsuya.
It wasn’t a biological issue, so something like dancing was still acceptable. However, in Miyuki’s heart, the only who was allowed to touch her was Tatsuya. The only one who could do as he wished with her was Tatsuya alone.
The reflection in the mirror was that of herself clad in her underwear. As she looked upon herself, Miyuki couldn’t help but think. These fingers and this hair, lips, bosom, the secret places that no one was allowed to see, everything was available for Tatsuya to touch if he willed it. If it was Tatsuya, she was willing to do anything.
—No matter if it was her body or heart, everything that she was belonged to Onii-sama—
This was Miyuki’s truth, a wish that came from the bottom of her heart akin to prayer.
Yet, Miyuki also knew that these feelings would never come to pass.
That was what she thought.

not gonna lie, even I stopped reading at that point because I was creeped out for the day

Whelp, no more HxH.
Another good series bites the dust.

I wouldn't say bites the dust, since all good things must end anyways. But yea, one less good thing to read/watch. I'm just patiently waiting for that one chapter of Berserk, of which the author will then inevitably announce his break- AGAIN.

Well I was thinking if say there's one baby in the womb but somewhere along the lines that child splits into another. Then they are both born maybe like a few months apart. Would that still be incest or some kind of oncest going on.

And are we seriously arguing the whole onii-chan bullshit. If you live with that person for so long or what not, they are your sister. Say it as it is, good ol' fashioned incest D:<, you can like it or not like it, taboo or not taboo, it is what it is

I'm confused at how they can be born 11 months apart (or even a few months apart) if they split from the same zygote.
I would assume it's incest because it's not like you'd call your twin the same person as you.

Yep, even disregarding societal norms/culture and what not, this particular brother-sister thing is genetic as well, so I'm not sure what we are trying to confirm lol.
|
No no I'm not really talking about what's going on in the anime, it just got me thinking about some crazy hypotheticals.

Well, HxH is just going for an undefined break, isn't it? : /
|
Yea HxH is on indefinite break, because of author's health, something along those lines. That's the thing with epics, they span so long that the authors themselves tend to end up dying or what not (knock on wood). I lost count the amount of authors that are still writing in the middle of a book, and then they just die from old age or illness lol. That isn't even taking into account writer's block, change of career, change of lifestyle etc etc.

You made the biggest mistake you could commit in watching that show in using your brain at all.
