| After learning that the author intended for them to actually remain together, basically making it canon, the ending didn't bother me so much on my second watch-through this week. It is sweet to think about the challenges and everything their future holds, and your explanation helps reinforce all this. I think I finally feel completely content with the ending, this bothered me for a long time when I first watched. Edit: I also want to add, it would make no sense for them to go through much together and even kiss each other, something they can't ever take back and have to live with the fact they kissed each other romantically - then just cancel all of this out for nothing, and lose friends in the process. If they planned on breaking up anyway, I don't think they would do something that serious (and kinda messed up) that they really can't undo. Edit 2: I researched a little more and found the "10 years later" story. Although there is no reference to any relationships, this actually gives us more information - it means Kirino probably didn't end up dating someone new, and that reinforces the theories. She's also still living at the same home, presumably with Kyousuke, so we know they still must be close to eachother or she would have gone abroad as planned.

| You sure repeated the same stuff a lot of times in your explanation man lol. Still i agree 100% with you forget the kiss the wedding itself already showed us that they will keep on being a romantic couple the same way that they had the wedding in secret and just between themselves (and some close, close friends) Throughout the series it's shown a lot of times how important real lives are for both of them (especially Kirino) and that they can't just do everything in public since society would not accept it, and even they themselves throughout various times in the show realize how weird it is for siblings to have romantic feelings for one another. Still they are prepared to do it, they can't break off all relationships like in a game and just go off into the sunset but they quietly decide to live their lives together in secret between themselves and close friends and hey what more do you need? The kiss at the end i also take it that they will continue with their relationship and that they will try to be affectionate in public as much as they can being a real couple when they can. |
 Truly, comparisons between fellow humans are what turn out to be the most infuriating. |
| cannot believe I just read all of that and how so little people commented on this |
| Author just added the continuations story of Oreimo the moment in between Eromanga Sensei show had been launched. After reading that, its understandable that they might've a love continuations story in indirected implification on it. Their group was not split up after the incident which was a good sign for continuing a good ending. Afterall, long live the incestous relationship over Kyo and Kirino. And fucked every social matter that may blocked their dream. I mean, they should've pray better to god that their friends and even their parents did gave a blessing toward their forbidden relationship. So, the continuations, like your long-ass explanations were relatable by what happened on their world. So, enjoy that moment, then! Ofc the studio publisher such a shit doesn't go all out and goes wild on it. The safe play just limited the freedom of animation industry. So, i guess, a child play would be better than what happened on the OVA closurement. What a shit decision, then, lmao. |

White_Kotori said: *My intro starts here*. Ending explanation starts below but I suggest you read the intro. So I'm new to oreimo I watched the whole series plus the ova's I was really emotionally impacted with the way it ended because I was hoping it to be a great ending with Kirino and Kyosuke leaving the show as lovers in a forbidden relationship. since the first season I knew/hoped they would get together which they did in a fantastic 2 season long wait and which they displayed there relationship growing and all the comedy and drama with all the characters. it was just amazing the plot line the characterization with each character having there own unique purpose and personality basicly everything was great until they hit us with that ending where they leave a bad taste in your mouth where nobody wins not even the people who didn't support there love. And I know people are going to say but there brother and sister and that there love is disgusting and I understand where there coming from but you have to understand the story and the emotions everything the writer is displaying and take it in. For me I'm a passionate open minded individual who is a sucker for romance and seeing a brother and sister fall in love is a little hard to embrace I understand but knowing that the two will live a loving life of happiness that is all that matters and which is why I don't unapprove of their relationship. The ending was so bad in my opinion that I just couldn't live with myself knowing all that was just going to end with them breaking up which is why I did my research and read many sources and articles even the 12 Japanese LN that I had to translate to come to the conclusion that what they showed at the end has a secret ending/message to it that not many will know so let the explanation begin. *Ending Explanation Starts here* Remember when Kirino made a bet with Kyousuke. If Kyousuke fails the mock exams, Kyousuke will be Kirino's slave for life and do as she please. And if Kyousuke wins, he would get '1 wish' from Kirino. And Kyousuke won the bet. So fast forward, towards the ending of OreImo, where Kyousuke and Kirino arrived in Akibira, to meet with the 'Otaku Girls Unite'. Kyousuke tells Kirino that he still has that '1 time wish' and now knows what to use it for. So he ask her to come closer, with the gesture of his hand, and as soon as she came close, Kyousuke kissed her in the cheek or the lips as for the Light Novel(doesn't really matter on what I'm going to talk about). At that moment, when Kyousuke said that he found out "what to use his '1 time wish' for". He thought of using that '1 time wish' to break the 'promise' they made, about only 'dating until graduation'. So when Kyousuke kissed Kirino, I believe he didn't just use up his '1 time wish' just to kiss Kirino, but Kyousuke instead, intended to used his '1 time wish' to break the 'promise'(of them not dating until graduation). Because after the 'dating until graduation' ends, they aren't allowed to to kiss, hold hands, hug, date, and the like, towards each other. So when Kyousuke kissed Kirino, he intended to break that 'promise' with the '1 time wish', that he won from a bet with Kirino. So when Kyousuke kissed Kirino, he simply stated(showed/implied) to Kirino, that he used his '1 time wish' to break the 'promise' that they made, of them only 'dating until graduation'. So that they can continue to be together as lovers. Kirino probably got the message and idea of the '1 time wish' being used to break the 'promise'. She probably, earlier on, expected him to break the 'promise' they agreed on. Just like when she was suppose to go abroad (again), she told Kyousuke that she thought that Kyousuke would use the '1 time wish' to let her stay instead of going, but she chose to stay anyways. After Kyousuke confessed his feelings for Kirino. Also, back to the ending of OreImo. At the part of Kyousuke kissing Kirino, Kirino pushes away Kyousuke and said they will have 'Life Counseling'. So, Kyousuke and Kirino lives continue as lovers than just being as normal siblings(which the publishers were trying to go for), but in secret, even towards their own audience. I realized that nobody actually thought about this or knew about it(from what I know). Most people think the kiss is just trivial matter, but in fact its a strong hidden meaning(placed by the author). Because why in the world would Kyousuke just waste a '1 time wish', that he would probably never have again, just to kiss Kirino?(I think not.) So their love life continues on, ready to face the challenge that is set before(ahead/in-front of) them. If Season 3 was a thing, it would probably tackle the subject of them trying to find a way of them living a life as lovers when they are siblings, but thanks to the publishers(not really their fault, they are just complying with their government and etc), that won't be happening anytime soon or at all. Also, after Kyousuke and Kirino kissed, back at the church when Kirino gave back the ring, Kirino didn't look worried or sad and just wore a happy normal face, probably because she knew that Kyousuke is going to use his '1 time wish' to break the 'promise' they made.) I would like to share this to all of you guys and girls, too. To help some of you feel better about the ending of OreImo. Where I also was a little hurt. Just my comment: I have watched the ending of OreImo's anime again to make sure I didn't misinterpreted anything(of the scene I talked about above) and I didn't get the ending wrong. I also felt a small bitterness inside me when I watched the ending again. I just really wish OreImo's story can continue and end more appropriately. Just having it end like that, makes me feel like I can no long live on and look forward to in life. Yea, yea. You can tell that I'm on the Kirino boat/side, but I would like to also call myself being on kyosuke side as well. This show was so great that I can almost relate it to my very first anime and my favorite Angel Beats which also got me really emotional. I'm an emotional guy :) Thanks... I really needed this to ease a bit of my pain 😪 |
Kerzic said: As usual, harems ruin everything. Good stories traditionally have two forms... 1) Drama, in which characters face obstacles, overcome flaws, show growth, and become functional and productive adults. 2) Tragedy, in which the characters face obstacles, don't overcome their flaws, don't grow, and meet a tragic ending. At some point, fairly recently people decided that it's mean to notice that people are selfish dysfunctional children, to point that out to them, and to expect them to change, so we now have stories that celebrate selfish people who refuse to grow up or grow and leave a trail of emotional destruction in their wake. Those are bad stories that appeal to people who want to believe it's fine to be messed up and selfish. That's what this story is. The only one close to growing and being an adult in the end is Tamura. Sadly, she stopped short of beating Kirino so ugly that she could never model again, didn't sound like she'd tell gossip sites about their relationship, leaving her unemployable and she didn't tell their father so he would beat Kyousuke nearly to death and disown both of them, leaving them homeless. If the author had the skill and guts to write a tragedy, that would have been the correct tragic ending for selfish and stupid characters who refuse to grow, leaving the two with no future. Having Kyousuke and Kirino grow up, stop being selfish, childish, and stupid, and letting Kyousuke have a functional relationship with Ruri would have been the appropriate drama ending. I guess that would be to boring for most people these days. In a previous reply, someone mentioned that Ruri's roll in the story was to become a "beard" for Kyousuke and Kirino. What a wonderful role for a young person to aspire to. Would Kyousuke be happy with Karino playing that role for another couple? Of course not. It's humiliating, degrading, and has no future. No parent or sibling would want their child or sibling in that role. Will either Ruri or Kirino have children with Kyousuke? What kind of household would they live in? Of course you need to be a functional adult to have thoughts like that, and none of these characters are functional adults except, maybe, Tamura. And if there is any winner to this story, it's Tamura, because she got away from the trash and has a chance at a normal life. I wish her well. the same guy who wrote the ending you hate so much also wrote the confrontation between Kirino and Manami. He wrote the breakup scene between Kyousuke and Ruri too. Which proves he is not a bad writer nor is he clueless about social realities. In fact, it proves that he is quite a bit better and knowledgeable than the average LN author. |

| @Kerzic You're not wrong. It's been years since I saw the show and I don't recall many of the finer details but I do remember being disappointed in the ending, especially the bit with the car full of girls helping Kyousuke ruin his life. But I also remember being impressed with the two scenes I mentioned earlier and just a feeling that the series overall was MUCH more competently written than I've come to expect from the typical trashy light novel adaptation. Sure, at the end of the day all the characters acted like anime characters but there was a sliver of real humanity in them that you rarely see, especially in this genre. Of course, it's not Shakespeare or anything but it doesn't deserve it's reputation it has in the anime community as "the worst story ever". Far from it. I don't know how much blame for the way it ended can be put on the editors but it's a commonly accepted fact that the author was forced to change his vision for the story. |
