Still, being liked (even as a possible brother candidate) by a kuudere goth loli is more than enough reward for me. Too bad Kyousuke likes "perfect" tsunderes, the fool.

I'm not that certain that Kuroneko likes him in that way. I took that part as Kuroneko being envious of that Kirino has a brother like him. I think I remember some mention of Kuroneko having siblings (or not, I forget). Either way, she had to have been thinking how different her path would have been if she had a selflessly supportive brother the way Kirino does (especially since she doesn't deserve it). Maybe she would be the one negotiating about an anime version of her dark and brooding teen novel series.

I didn't take away anything romantic in that scene. Just admiration.

the most amusing thing however is even though Kuroneko said what she had to say (god bless her), the studio is still going to produce that shit.

We might lose hundred thousands of $$$$ but hey, didnt he beg nicely? he got on his knees didn't u see that? we must hear him out, lets do as he says!

They did state that some other series got canned in pre-production, and they needed a replacement fast. What better choice than a quick and dirty loose adaptation of a bestselling light novel?

They had to fill it with something, and licensing the IP from an otaku author who is fresh on the market and likely inept at business isn't that dumb of a choice.

As much as I agree with how asinine Kirino getting her way is, Kyousuke and Kuroneko had a point. No work had been done on it so far, so there wasn't any legitimate reason to bastardize her work. Yuri series like Kirino's novel do get watched, even if their plots are completely nonsensical.

Yes, that's why I put in "(even as a possible brother candidate)" as a qualifier.

[Nadouku]

Sigh, I can't just agree with what Kyōsuke is doing for his sister. They may be siblings, but this is just outright pitiful of him to go this far.

[RyougaZell]

I've heard of doujinshi hitting jackpot and becoming series or the like... but this was unreal and ridiculous. Can we just go back to her being an eroge fan?

Oh man, i raged SO hard! This is KyoAni level trolling right here.

Oh man, i raged SO hard! This is KyoAni level trolling right here.

In what way? I'm not really seeing any connection here.

Unless you mean Kirino being a bitch, but hating a character in an erogame who is exactly like her. Even then I'm not seeing any "KyoAni trolling."
-------------------

They sure making it easy to hate Kirino since the last episode. She skips out on work to play games. I cannot count the number of times I've wanted to call out sick and play a game that just came out, but I never have. Her job is the reason she can afford all that stuff in her hidden closest, and being a model, it's not like her job has any sort of regularity from week to week or even month to month. It's whenever a catalog or a magazine needs her. She also wasn't all that hard to replace by the look of it.

I'm kind of pissed Ayase thought the best of Kirino, rather than the worst. Especially after it's been so long without her.

The bright side was Kuroneko and Saori parts. Kuroneko took Kyousuke's behavior to heart, and spent the day acting like a real big sister. She even suffered through Meruru while using her sewing experience to make a toy. She's maturing a lot faster than Kirino is, no matter how jealous she is of Kirino's deus ex machina success. Kirino takes baby steps from Kyousuke's influence while Kuroneko makes leaps.

I knew Saori was a bombshell! I guess her otaku quirk has always been cosplaying. That might be why she mentioned she went to the other days of Komiket in addition to the one where she hung out with Kuroneko and Kirino. The earlier day(s) were spent cosplaying. The problem I did have was that I thought the community of cosplayers was very nasty about cosplayers who buy their outfits rather than make them. Maybe that's just the primadonna western cosplayers. Still, if Saori is that into it, shouldn't she be like Kuroneko and make her own?

We don't really know all the circumstances of why she hides her dynamite body, but it looks like we might find out for sure next time. Maybe she's shy or doesn't like the attention when she's not cosplaying. Like Ohno from Genshiken.

(Despite finally finding out about Saori for sure, I'm still rooting for Kyousuke x Manami)

[Nadouku]

Indeed, Saori's quite the lady underneath that nerdy cosplay. Kirino shouting through the wall reminds me of my little brother getting excited over a game, except I didn't mind it as much since I wasn't doing anything important at the moment. Still, her behavior towards Kyōsuke was unacceptable.

[Kraco]

I stopped caring about Kirino a long time ago, as probably was meant by the author, so the only thing that disturbed me in this episode was the fact there was too much Kirino and too little Kuroneko and Saori. Kuroneko's scenes especially were delightful, though witnessing the real Saori behind the otaku persona was naturally important. Just like this series to make her suddenly a lady of considerable wealth, of course.

[KrayZ33]

it was all fine and good until Kirino overdid it again with her bitch-behavior in the last few minutes..

had to laugh alot though.. all in all it was a nice watch this time.
I really hope to see more Kuroneko x Kyosuke scenes

Yes, and in a sense of magnitude. I already hate her character, rubbing it like that made me want to punch the screen.

[vejita613]

Its sad how badly the anime has screwed up Kirinos character and now everyone hates her. Yes, she was very tsun in the manga and LN, but she wasn't nearly this bad (atleast not that I can recall).

[Dark Dragon]

The timing of this series is bad also. After so many Kugimiya Rie tsundere series, no one really has the patience for this particular character type anymore.

[MFauli]

Phew, nice return to the good entertainment. Kirino´s still an unlikable douchebag, but it didnt show that much in this episode, because she was playing a game.And she sooo wants some hot love with her brother, lol.

Best scene was Kuroneko having a phone call with someone, using her Maschera-language, while her sister and mother were listening. SOOO embarrassing to watch xD

Edit: Btw, WTF was that break short pause between the "I love you, Oni-chan"-eroge-scene and her saying "Phew, no Im tired!" supposed to mean? Did she masturbate or wat xD

[RyougaZell]

Despite the general dislike for Kirino lately, I found this episode quite enjoyable. I loled a lot this time around. It also helped me forget episode 8 existed.

That's because apparently it never did, 4chan claims it was a filler.

Good grief... who did they hire to make that blasfemy? Tite Kubo?

[shinta|hikari]

I think it was intentional, or at least I hope so. The episode was about making premature anime adaptations and how badly they can fuck it up with filler and other stuff, while the episode itself was unnecessary filler. It was almost like it was trying to make a point by setting itself up as an example.

[vejita613]

Yes and no. If memory serves me correctly, there was a similar event in the LN, but that story dealt more with plagiarism (no, it wasn't Kirino). This is why I kind of laughed at episode 8, because they talked about how wrong it is to change a story when going from the original source to an anime, but yet thats exactly what they did.

Truthfully speaking, this episode is more filler than the last since nothing like this ever happened in the LN. But, it was nice since we never saw this side to any of the characters before. Infact, it's made me like the characters even more especially Kuroneko and yes, even Kirino.
