I just re-read the series, and I have to say I'm pretty disappointed in the way the Tatsuya/Mayumi relationship has developed. For the first couple of books, it seems as if Mayumi is maybe being set up to be "special", as opposed to just one of the harem; but by later books (and particularly now that she's off at college), I just don't see any evidence that she's anything other than Harem Member C.
My perfect ending would be Miyuki learns to stop being so completely emotionally dependent (on anyone, nevermind her brother), releases Tatsuya's seal, settles down with a nice boy, and Tatsuya winds up with Mayumi. But if I want that, I'm gonna have to write it for myself, because at this point I think there is a 75% chance that the series finishes with no romantic resolution for Tatsuya, and a 25% chance that he winds up with Mayumi, who may or may not be revealed to be his biological sister. As hard as I look, I just can't see anything that gives me any hope for any other outcome.
