Is Kuroneko about to join the bitch-club? :/

Unlikely. She's probably doing it for Kirino's sake. Either because Kirinio is a bro-con or because it's just too awkward dating the brother of one of your best friends (or both).
Either way, I believe in Kuroneko.
I could foresee it a while ago it would end like that (well, not really end necessarily, but develop so). As soon as it was made clear she wanted it all to progress along the plan written in the book. It was like the full circle of a relationship, so it had to have an ending as well. I didn't expect to see it so soon, though. It feels like her courage failed and she skipped a bunch of steps, leaving it very superficial. After all, it seems like even Kyousuke meeting her sisters wasn't a part of the plan.
I guess she's doing it for Kirino's sake (and Kyousuke the Siscon's), since this show is the miserable thing it is, but maybe not fully. Obviously she cares for Kyousuke, but she's also missing a few feathers to have full wings, so I think she simply wanted an experience like this under her belt plus her faith in fate and being in the darkness flows well with a failed relationship. Even if she had to fail it on purpose.
I think Kuroneko's reasons were obvious from the scene where Kirino burst in on them playing the game, but didn't want to participate when invited to join. It's especially clearl when you combine it with the image of Kuroneko's ideal dream.
Kuroneko loves Kyousuke, but she also doesn't want to lose her first real friend, who happens to be his sister and a brocon as a result of having that relationship with him. She wants to keep both, and the only way to do that is for Kyousuke and Kirino to get along properly like the image in her notebook.
Kirino being distant basically proved Kuroneko's hypothesis.
Unless the two of them get along in a normal way, the kind where Kirino doesn't try to monopolize Kyousuke and being a bitch when he's not giving her his full attention, Kuroneko will have to choose one or the other...which she doesn't want to do.
Her winged outfit was weird at first, but she was so causal about it, it just ended up being regular gothloli instead of bizarre cosplay. Her sisters are cute though.
This is stupid. She should have just raped him to make him get over Kirino, and let Kirino suffer forever by rubbing it into her face.
Peace.
The unpossible has happened: Kirino is no longer bitch no.1! The new title carrier is Kuroneko!!1
WTF. What a self-centered, manipulative bitch. You know, I hate Kirino, I really do. But Kirino is a dumb piece of shit, devoid of real empathy. Kuroneko, meanwhile, is aware of her surroundings, in otherwords: she doesn´t get the benefit of a lacking understanding of those around her.
So what just happened here during the last two episodes? In an attempt to make Kirino open up, she shows Kyousuke the middler finger and pretends breaking up with him. Even moves away without telling him! I don´t care that the episode ended with him being happy, that´s just a consequence of him being a pussy. IT´S NOT OKAY WHAT KURONEKO DID. Worst of all, when Kyousuke was about to answer the final question, she pretended to faint, being all weak and scared. Wow.
Man, just give the audience "dat incest"-relationship. The hints are too obvious at this point. Either stop it or go through with it. Neither wants the other one to have a girl/boy friend. Really?! Well, there´s one clear solution to that problem ...
I don´t get it. Is Ayasa now in love with Kyousuke?
Also, when that fashion designer woman started cutting Kirino´s dress, she´d turn it into some pretty, but shorter skirt. But no, she just ... ruins it, lol.
Your parents have you gather at the kitchen table to talk about something. Then they tell you that you and your sister are getting too close to each other.
Most embarrassing happening ever? Most embarrassing happening ever.
Wow, was that bad. Sending Kyousuke away for being too close to Kirino. lol. Not that it made any sense, since not only did the parents not install any rules, like "you mustn´t visit each other", no, they also made it easier for these siblings to meet without their parents taking notice.
Kotdamn!
And I have no idea whats going on with Ayase and Kuroneko.
I don´t get it.
So it´s either Kyousuke going back to that bitch Kuroneko, or, more likely considering the preview, the incest ending becoming a reality?
What a mess these past 2-3 episodes have been, anyway. The first season felt like there was some overarching plot, but season 2 really disappointed with how joint-less all episodes were.
For those who read the manga: Is there material for a season 3 or will this be the absolute end?
It is from a light novel and the recently released final volume has been generating attention recently.
This season really does feel disjointed. It was as if the anime studio just chose specific parts of the story and decided to animate those, disregarding flow or build up.
Onii-san is now the most wanted bachelor for some reason. Kirino, just fuck him already and get this over with.
Peace.
ok, a whole episode spent to make Kyousuke look like shit. wtf. depressing
I don't see how. If anyone looked bad in this episode, it was Minami.
The episode was spent to show how Kyousuke suddenly changed from hero to zero, without any good reason. That´s how. It was super-depressing to watch.
Not that I am defending this show, but you missed the entire point of the episode.
Peace.
No, I´m sure there was a point intended. But to me, it felt like a deconstruction of Kyousuke´s character ... in a negative way.
Btw. I keep reading on other boards that somehow Manami is responsible for Kyousuke´s change. Can anyone explain? Nothing in this episode suggested as much.
There is no deconstruction. Even Kirino admitted that. That was the point of the episode.
Peace.
There was. I understood that they tried to paint a picture of "nothing really changed", but Kyousuke WAS active, smart, a fast runner, someone who´s always busy doing awesome stuff.
Don´t even try to reply with some "he still is". He´s not. He lacks any sort of ambition. Prior to engaging in Kirino´s counseling sessions, he had no hobbies whatsoever - I remember because it´s something i criticized back then.
It's the opposite. You overestimate Kyousuke in his youth, just like Kirino did.
Peace.
Minami is plain - there's really nothing special about her except that she's the typical childhood friend. The served as a juxtaposition to young Kyousuke, who was an achiever and very talented.Originally Posted by MFauli
Now, if you're in Minami's shoes and you love with someone and they're out of your league, how do you make such a relationship possible without being upfront and honest about it?
You either get up to their level, which she doesn't because she lacks talent, or you drag them down. If you drag them down by manipulating their mentality, they'll just settle for less.
In this case, Minami's plainness and influence drags Kyousuke's character down, which sets up the story at the very beginning (e.g., why Kirino is such a "bitch" to him, the primary driver in Kirino's successes, etc.).
EDIT: Shit, that was the last episode? Time to pick up the novels now...
EDIT2: Shit, I can't take stories that don't have closure, so I googled the ending instead. Here are some MEGA SPOILERS from the PSP game for anyone interested!
