[Anime] Kono Naka Ni Hitori, Imouto Ga Iru! (Summer 2012)

My words, I am eating them.

As for the ending, I thought it was alright. It didn't have an asspull like I thought it might, but it also didn't have the Harem End I wanted either.

The explanations given, while not all-encompassing, were pretty reasonable. Much more so than I hoped for. For all the effort I put into theory-crafting, it seems I couldn't quite contain my Miyabi bias. (Not surprising, since I have a near-unconditional love for tsunderes not voiced by Kugiyama, especially if they are childhood friends.) Fortunately, the explanation that she was Shougo's sister started at the hospital, which is where I figured it would start if Miyabi was the sister. There was the possibility of pulling another red herring on us by making Miyabi and Mei out to just having a long-lasting friendship-type relationship, but they didn't go that route. Oh well, maybe my theories can still be applied to the ongoing light novel.

I fricken hate harem ends. Obvious that he likes Konoe best so just let they become a couple and end it not like there will be a season 2 so you need to let room for plot.

I prefer it this way. This ending was fairly good. I've seen worse. Could've been like the "Ladies Versus Butlers" ending..

Main character oblivious to the 8(ish) girls in love with him.

He's an idiot who can't read a situation ever. Your typical clueless protagonist.

His childhood friend, who's been in love with him as kids(he even admitted to wanting to marry her at the time), and a tsundere who fell in love with him because of his effort and commitment despite his troublesome back ground are in this group.


At least in Imouto, the protagonist is aware of the girls feelings, and has intentions of marrying one of them. I only feel bad that Ikusu had little development. To be honest, the harem ending here ended pretty well.

In Ladies vs Butlers it was like;
Oh well, life goes on. Hell, the side-characters provided more entertainment for me then the story development for this show.

So in the end Presidant Tendou was in it for the food, lol. That Miyabi, thinks she was so clever using her Little Sister postion to fend off the other girls, but Konoe she was able to think a way to get her approval(kinda).

And after reading the Wiki, to refresh myself on the names of the characters, I read a bit of what happens later in the story, and well if they made a second season, if would be a mindfuck in a way.
