I don't get why people think this. Its usually classified as gore in other anime/manga sites but when you watch it, you realise that it isn't. And it only gets violent at the very end and even then there is not much to see. | ||

And was Kirino all pissed off because she thought Manami and Kyousuke were getting it on? Or because she missed him? I couldn't figure it out. Edit: I also really liked this week's ED. It was really catchy. Edit 2: This gif is so awesome: ![[image loading]](http://i54.tinypic.com/aytwl1.gif) Kirino's objection to Kyousuke hanging out with jimiko is never quite elaborated, though for the most part she puts it as that she doesn't want Kyousuke getting it on with jimiko. Oh and I quoted that just to get the gif on another page.

She is literally locked with only Kyousuke until much later in the series, and by that point her character is too defined and weak to prop up. But the author keeps her in. God knows why -.- | ||

seriously, way to shut down any potential relationship development. though with a story like this, with the main lead being his sister i guess that makes sense since they can never get together anyways. | ||

Kyousuke just says that, its the author's way of setting that gap between him normally and him when he is doing something, incidentally invariably almost everything he does turns out to be for Kirino. And well, latest novel spoilers has set him up with someone, assuming that the leaks were real. Probably are. I am just happy that there was apparently more Ayase in vol 7. | ||

Apparently there is going to be a PSP game coming out for Oreimo There will be over 20 routes The protagonist may actually die in the Ayase route The authors had their way with Bandai, making them rewrite much of the plot Bandai provided There is a “phone-book sized” amount of dialogue There is a “homo route” and there may be a “oyaji [father] route” from http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2010/11/08/ore-no-imouto-psp-gets-death-ending-homo-route/ I don't know what to say about that father route.... @__@ MAL: http://myanimelist.net/profile/ugapa I feel like I'm watching a bajillion harems this season though, somethings wrong with me | ||

I don't know what descriptions I can give her other than plain and boring at that point. Also, her name is not Minami, she is just jimiko. Put her where she belongs please~ | ||

When do you do anything but complain, Uta?  And randomly digging through the torrents from over the weekend yields what is supposed to be OreImo 7 (and a txt for Nekomonogatari Shiro, guilting me), guess it is time to give it a cursory read. and by that I guess I mean look at the illustrations and guess what happened in the LN from just the illustrations. Looks like I won't be getting enough Ayase scenes this vol, shame. Anyhow, looks like the author is just going to try to keep up the tension for a bit longer, though there is seriously not much left to do imo. Sigh, Ayase seems way more interesting than jimiko as usual but we barely get enough of her antics. Either the author sucks and don't know a good character or the demographic sucks =( | ||

Both are targeted towards a younger audience, so it's similar to FMA/Naruto/Bleach/Trigun(?). | ||

Put her where she belongs please~ like I said you wont get it so no need to discuss this. It's not Manamis purpose to be another hyperactive character. Kyousuke described it pretty good in this episode and not everybody likes characters like the imouto. When I had to choose between his sister and Manami I'd go for Manami. You'd maybe go for Ayase doesnt matter. What i wanna say is that it's a plain difference in preferences. So no need to get worked up about it | ||

So no need to get worked up about it I don't mind characters like that, but I do have a beef with jimiko being useless plot wise because she is completely isolated until vol 5 gives you more school action. Basically, she only becomes involved with the plot when others enable her to. Otherwise, all the scenes you see with her are like what's featured in episode 6, standalone scenes with her and no one else. That's not really what anyone would like to see in a character imo. Like in vol 7, she became involved only because she bumps into Kyosuke and Kirino, similar things for every other vol. She only gets plot when author feels like developing her and her alone, or tag her into others' events via accidents and events that don't normally happen. | ||
