This anime as a whole was enjoyable. Not like the best thing ever happen type of anime but it is generally takes the anime industry towards a different direction. Good or bad I do not know but I like the gradual feeling of it. My few complaints is a little Kirino too tsun and not enough dere. I felt that even I know she is dishonest, she can act like a "b*tch". (not "is," act) But overall is fun. One small questions for you guys.
Now we got the "Good Ending" of this show and we'll get the True Ending. Does this happen in the novel at all? Which follows the novel here? Or is the true ending just a fanservice of potential wincest?

Well, given that the light novels are still ongoing, I am hoping for another season or something of the sort within the next few years.
On another note, I have never seen so much fan buzz over a series since, what, SHnY or Code Geass?

The ending is not out yet, but the way the novel ends per volume is always tempting you to find out more... And in the novel, I feel that she is even more tsun than the anime, probably because you don't see so much of her expressions and blushings etc etc. Personally, i prefer the novel version, since it seems strange for her to really fall in love with her brother, which seems to be the norm for both the manga and anime. In the novel, it is not as obvious, though there are quite some indications of that. Though there are parts I really can't agree with, especially with some of the things Kyousuke does...

From the way they ended it, it is likely for a sequel, though some elements are removed, since Kirino never went to US, but they can find ways around it if they so wish...
I replied on the other imouto thread, so here goes nothing:

Agreed. Kuroneko is more interesting and seemingly not as nearly as shallow as Kirino.

somehow - and i really think its not just me who's felt this - in every romance anime there usually is a lesser heroine that is more favored than the leading lady.. i know there are all sorts of reasons, but hey, its still a mystery..
SHnY's Yuki and DC's Kotori to name a few..
besides, KuronekoXKyousuke can
actually happen, without there being too much of a negative effect to kyousuke's and kirino's
sibling relationship
NOTE: not the incestuous kind, mind you siscon out there.. though
that kind of life counseling wouldn't look bad, leave it to doujins

That is one problem I have with doujin art is that they tend to ruin the original essence of the characters to make its delusions come to life. For example, there is really no good reason to ruin Ah! Megami-sama, except for someone's wild imagination.
In any case, I do wonder what it is with the recent uprising of yuri, yaoi, lolicon, shotacon, incestuous, etc. kinds of anime. It seems to really have come out from being underground within the last decade or so.

you could say its a manifestation of the industry's movers and shakers being a bit more
radical, if you will.. on the other hand, it could also be that the industry is becoming more and more desperate to make manga/anime/games/LN sell that they begin a runaway trend of dependence on previously 'underground' genres..
back then, as in
utena, slayers, evangelion then, the fans would have had to make do with fan-made renditions of their favorite poisons.. now it seems the industry tailors to our desires.. sure in the short run it makes viewers happy, but there will always be those select few who'd wish for more quality in their "poisons", i.e. series to grow up with and be indefinitely fond of, not be helpless viewers of temporary pick-me-ups..

Agreed. At the rate things are going, I can see a grave marking for anime right next to Disney and Looney Tunes.

It might as well be dead to me. Besides, they are just awful in general.

Well, I am glad you enjoy it, but just will not and cannot watch it (no TV on purpose).
