Oreimo	comment	Kyousuke Kousaka is, by his own admission, a completely and extremely normal seventeen-year-old high schooler who values normalcy, to the point that his goal in life is to ultimately have a completely normal one.The catch: his relationship with his younger sister — extremely brilliant fourteen-year-old middle schooler Kirino — is, to put it mildly, bad... so bad neither of them even bother acknowledging each other's existence, except when it's absolutely necessary.That "absolute necessity" came the day Kyousuke picks up a DVD case Kirino dropped — specifically, one of Magical Girl anime Stardust Witch Meruru. This surprises him, but not as much as what was actually in the case — an H-Game titled Imouto to Koishiyo! (Let's Love Little Sister!). This sets off a chain of events that leads to the Kousaka siblings' first actual conversation in years, with Kyousuke learning that Kirino is a closet Otaku — a "little sister" fangirl, to be exact — and getting dragged into increasingly hilarious situations, most being started in some way by his sister.Oreimo (short for Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai, or "There's No Way My Little Sister Can Be This Cute") is a comedy Light Novel series written by Tsukasa Fushimi and illustrated by Hiro Kanzaki; the main story was published under the Dengeki Bunko imprint from 2008 to 2013 for 12 volumes, with a series of side stories focusing on other characters that ran from 2019 to 2021 for another five volumes.A 12-episode anime adaptation aired in fall 2010. It had an anime-original ending which was called the "good end" by AIC, followed by a 4-episode "true" ending that followed the novel more closely and aired as webisodes before being released to Blu-ray/DVD. A second season that follows the True End aired as a part of spring 2013 season. Both of the two seasons and three-part episode series finale can be viewed legally at Crunchyroll under the name Oreimo here. Aniplex USA licensed the anime for a North American release.A manga adaptation of the same name ran from 2009 to 2011 in Dengeki G's magazine, while a Spin-Off manga starring the popular Kuroneko titled Ore no Kouhai ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai! ("There's No Way My Junior Can Be This Cute!") by the same mangaka has begun in 2011. A PSP (non-canon) Visual Novel featuring a route for each girl has been released, with a full fan translation of its expanded version. A second visual novel (for the PS3) has also been released. A clean copy of the original light novel is available here.The author, Tsukasa Fushimi, and Kazuma Kamachi have co-written a crossover web series between this and A Certain Magical Index called Ore no Imouto to Railgun Collaboration Project!Kirino was chosen to represent Oreimo in the crossover Fighting Game Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax by Sega, where she uses several cosplay outfits in battle. Kuroneko was chosen as one of the support characters.

Kirino takes the opportunity to really rub it in her face, taunting her that she "won" Kyousuke from Manami, and asking her how she feels. Kyousuke, for his part, gets extremely annoyed at Kirino's tone of voice, and as he's about to stop her, Manami lets Kirino know just how she feels. By delivering a literal Gut Punch, and then giving Kirino "The Reason You Suck" Speech about taking Kyousuke away from her. Manami strips off her usual nice persona, and gets into a huge fistfight with Kirino.

Oreimo / int_161f1ebf	comment	Relationship Upgrade: At the end of Light Novel Volume 7, Kyousuke and Kuroneko start going out. However, They break up in Volume 8. Kyousuke and Kirino go through one during the OVA episodes 14 through 16 of season 2. Then its subverted when they went through it just until their graduation, and revert back to normal siblings at the very end of episode 16. The afterstory than pulls a Double Subversion and confirms that they only ended the public side of their romance and are normal siblings to the public. But are successfully still romantic in private. Sena and Makabe do this in episode 16 of season 2. Her brother Kouhei isn't too happy about it.

Oreimo / int_1869b4b1	comment	Unreliable Narrator: Kyousuke, somewhat, in the light novels. He is frequently interrupted by events in the story from narrating, and chooses to leave information out and push the authors implications further since Executive Meddling stopped them from downright saying them. Such as his true feelings being left out of the mix, only narrating his negative feelings up until the last few bits of the series. He also chooses to leave key parts out of the narration in the afterstory, nonetheless the author very clearly gets the message across anyway without clearly stating it and running afoul of the Moral Guardians.

Eventually played straight at the end of episode 3, after Kirino blushes and calls Kyousuke "aniki" for the first time. Subverted again in the beginning of the first episode of season 2, during the flashback to when the two were younger.

Oreimo / int_19ebe383	comment	Never Trust a Trailer: The anime's episodes titles all follow the formula "there's no way my (noun) can be this (adjective)", and you can know what the episode's main plot will be by turning the sentence into the affirmative. So in effect you can trust them to lie. A closer example to the trope is the teasers of Light Novel volumes, which often take things out of context to make things look more serious than they are. For instance, one has Kyousuke referring to Kirino as his girlfriend and waiting for her in a love hotel, only to reveal that it was research for her novel.

Or when Ria gives him The Glomp and clings onto him, just in time for Kirino to see it happening in episode 4 of season 2. And especially when Kuroneko and Manami seem him arm in arm with Kirino in episode 5 of season 2, with the latter really enjoying the misunderstanding regarding the other two girls.

The anime takes it to extreme by making them not only completely identical in looks, but also does everything at the same time side by side. Inverted example, at least in the anime, with Kirino's two model and school friends, Ayase and Kanako. While they generally get more screen time than other examples in this trope normally would (especially Ayase), much more focus is given to Kirino's two otaku friends, Saori and Kuroneko.

However, despite this, they genuinely do like each other, and spend a lot of time together after they first meet in episode 2. In the "True Route" OVA's (episodes 13-15), Sena takes over for Kirino as she and Kuroneko try to one-up each other in the game club.

Oreimo / int_1d2400e9	type	Green-Eyed Monster
Oreimo / int_1d2400e9	comment	Green-Eyed Monster: Kirino doesn't like how close Manami is to her brother and is rude to her. After Kuroneko develops feelings for Kyousuke in the later novel, she also acts in a similarly rude way to Manami. Kirino gets especially jealous when Kyousuke spends the night at Manami's house in the anime. Ayase also doesn't like what she interprets as Kyousuke corrupting her Kirino. In the 7th novel, Kyousuke berates Kirino for her laughter at Manami's shock from seeing them both on their Not a Date. Later she also rubs the misunderstanding in Kuroneko's face. The tables are turned when Kirino later declares that she and an otaku guy are dating, bringing out Kyousuke's own Green-Eyed Monster. In chapter 20 of the manga, Kirino starts to verbally assault Kuroneko the moment she starts to show interest in Kyousuke. She stops a few pages later because either she realizes what shes saying is generally mean or because it's actually bringing the two closer together. Kuroneko is extremely jealous and vindictive in the PSP Visual Novel, going as far as to actively sabotage Ayase and Kyousuke's relationship by ratting them out to Kirino instead of confronting them about it. When asked why she did it, she (in her usual "poetic" way) tells them it was just because she was jealous and knew Kirino would be too. Also in the PSP Visual Novel, Kirino is apparently so jealous of Manami going with Kyousuke on a class trip to Kyoto, combined with some other factors she stresses herself into getting Laser-Guided Amnesia. Despite forgetting all the recent events that brought her closer to Kyousuke, she still manages to be jealous of Manami.

The 'DVD/BD Commentary Track' is actually a video of SD versions of the characters watching the episode and commenting on it. Leading to several bizarre moments like: Kyousuke and Kirino arguing over where in the anime this version of Kyousuke comes from (Answer: Episode 20 of season 2), Ayase's yandeiru and deredere sides arguing with each other over how good or bad Kyousuke is. A surreal moment when Kirino invites special guest Ayana Taketatsu onto the show. This leads to Kirino interviewing her Seiyuu about what it was like to play Kirino. A similar event happens in the Volume 6 DVD commentary, with Kirino and Kyousuke interviewing Yūichi Nakamura, and Kirino simultaneously mocking Kyousuke and praising Nakamura's performance.

However, in a later (anime-only) episode it's still implied extremely strongly that she enjoys the H-scenes exactly as they are meant to be enjoyed...

The latter meets up with the former and Kyousuke for a final fight, and throws the first punch, hitting Kirino in the stomach. They then resort to slaps along with punches, with Kirino managing to hit Manami in the face, breaking her glasses in the process. Kyousuke tries to intervene, but ends up getting punched by both girls instead. So Kyousuke ends up finding out that what was supposed to be a heated argument turns into a fistfight, with Manami telling Kirino her punching is to vent her frustrations at Kirino constantly hampering her attempts to date Kyousuke.

Oreimo / int_26764512	comment	I Just Want to Have Friends: Several examples: In Kirino's case, she wants to have friends who are into anime and games like she is, without having to let her other friends at school know about it, since they shun such activities. Kyousuke helps her out with that and she meets Saori and Kuroneko this way. And even after Ayase found out about it, she more or less came to tolerate Kirino's hobbies due to Kyousuke's intervention. In the later novels, Saori admits to being lonely, due partly to her wealth status, but mostly because of her height which caused many girls at her school to ostracize her for it. So she was quite happy to make friends with Kuroneko and Kirino. While she's very subtle about it, and claims to not need any, Kuroneko seems to open up to many other characters gradually, and seems pretty happy about it as well. But she often tries not to let Kirino know about it. She eventually does make at least one friend at school, although whether it's a genuine friendship is questionable.

Oreimo / int_2b5ea43c	comment	Bland-Name Product: While the light novels avert this, stating all brands and products as-is, the anime was forced to use this trope. Kirino owns Mintendouu CS games, among other examples. Saori's shopping bag at Summerket has some of these written on it, such as "Shark" (Sharp) and "Makibishi" (Mitsubishi). Kirino, Saori and Kuroneko eat at a "McDonalb's" during Episode 2. Instead of the Golden Arches logo, McDonalb's features a Golden "S" on its fries boxes. Kirino has an "AVIO" notebook computer. "WindomsGXP" (Windows XP), "WindomsVisbo" (Windows Vista), and "Pendulum 4" (Pentium 4). Episode 7 featured a department store called "SHIBUYA108" (its real-life counterpart is "SHIBUYA109") and a Web search engine called "Beegle". In the manga, Google is featured as Googlo, and YouTube as YouCube. In the second episode of the second season we get Love Touch, which is obviously Love Plus. The same episode has a PS Wita. Averted to one degree though, in the first episode when Kirino shows off her collection of eroge, if one looks closely at the titles, one can spot School Days and its' sequels Summer Days and Cross Days among other actual visual novels and eroge.

Oreimo / int_317629db	comment	Embarrassing Nickname: Sure, Saori's chosen surname of "Bajeena" may be a well known Gundam character, but to those uninitiated to anime it sounds awkwardly like a prominent part of the female reproductive anatomy, so much so that Kyousuke did a massive Spit Take from shock when he first heard it. The fact that at least one Fan Sub did not get the reference and spelled it "Vageena" did not help matters. This isn't surprising, spelled it "Vajeena" happens to him a lot too. The official subtitled version on Crunchyroll makes the same mistake, though at least it helps non-Japanese-savvy American viewers get the joke.

Manami herself encourages Kyousuke to go after Ayase in Volume 8 of the Light Novel and the Visual Novel. In the PSP game's Manami route, Kyousuke's friend Akagi is also one for the aforementioned pairing, and pulls a Leave The Two Love Birds Alone at the start of their class' school trip. In the last two volumes of the light novel, Saori has joined the Kuroneko camp, while Manami roots for Ayase and Sena roots for Kirino. Mikagami has also been shipping Kirino since apparently before the fake boyfriend incident.

The opening is different each time it's shown, highlighting the characters featured in the episode. So are the endings. They are completely different each time, and sometimes, they even start over the body of the episode whenever they're too short, or the episode gets too long. The opening in Season 2 will sometimes add clips or characters that are relevant to that episode, such as episode 4 showing scenes of Kirino's athletic rival coming over to visit/stay with her for a short while interspersed with some scenes from when they were in the US to do some training.

She starts off as being a pretty important side character and one Kyousuke interacts with regularly, seeing that she's his biggest port of refuge from all the wacky adventures he got himself into over the events of the series. However, starting from volume five, her appearance rate is steadily decreasing as the non-Kirino-involved parts of the story focus more on the computer game club and in particular, Kuroneko instead.

After a while, he runs into some pretty big bugs that either causes the game to freeze up, crash, or cause other unintended consequences. The other members of the game club mention that it would take at least a week to fix all the problems, which means they'd miss the deadline. She swallows her pride and asks Sena, who's a skilled programmer,(and whose own idea for a game got shot down earlier in the episode) for her help to finish the game and get rid of the bugs before the contest deadline. With Sena's help, they manage to make it in time.

Kanako being incredibly mean to Bridget (smoked at Bridget in the light novels and threw her wand at Kyousuke in the anime). In Bridget's words: Meruru has turned into an evil witch! Kirino also does this to Manami in Volume 4 of the Light Novel and episode 11 of the anime. She does this by pretending to have forgotten who she is, badgering her at any opportunity, and then trapping Kyousuke by spreading his porn all around his room for her to see. Both Kirino and Kuroneko (who actually came up with the idea according to the Light Novel) realize they went way too far, and throw Kyousuke a surprise party as an apology.

Oreimo / int_34e3784f	comment	Please, Don't Leave Me: Two examples: In the "Good" ending of episode 12, the game that Kirino and Kyousuke were playing ends saying essentially what Kyousuke wanted to say after he finds out Kirino was planning on going to the US for track training, but didn't say because of either pride or being mad at Kirino at the time. After hearing it, he still tells Kirino to go, which causes her to get mad and headbutt him. But at the end she decides not to go to America. In the "True Route" OVA, episode 15, Kyousuke goes to America after Kirino sends him a text telling him to throw away her stuff. After talking to her for a bit, Kirino doesn't seem as though she wants to leave, but Kyousuke breaks down crying and essentially invokes this trope on her, having missed her all those months since she quietly left for America without telling anyone but their parents. This convinces her to come back to Japan after finally having the confidence and perfect reason to push her into completing the challenge she gave herself. Her rival also sees right through this and almost straight to the motivation that was finally able to push Kirino into beating her after constantly losses. He does this again in episode 14 of season 2. Kirino says she's going overseas again after graduation, but this time she'll let people know when she's leaving, and that she'll come back occasionally. Kyousuke instead pleads for her to stay and to marry him, which she seems to accept. It is later confirmed that she does stay because of Kyousuke in the Light Novel and afterstory).

But in the process, he ends up hurting several girls who fell in love with him and ruining his relationship with Manami (albeit justifiable as she has been manipulating Kyousuke, mentally scarred Kirino, and was the reason their relationship went sour). The kicker is that after they graduate, they split up due to a prior agreement for this to be temporary. But they are still closer than they ever were and it's implied (more heavily in the novels) that they may secretly still be together as their feelings for each other haven't changed. The after story, written by the author of the light novels, effectively confirms that Kyousuke and Kirino are indeed still together. They only ended the public side of their relationship as the ending seemed to hint, but continue in private rather successfully it appears.

Season twonote which swaps out the company of the first series with T2 Studio, who did photography duties on both seasons ups this with the Love Touch sequences in episode 2 being done entirely in cel-shaded CG. A similarly CG Astronomic Zoom also pops up at the end. Episode 1 also has a scene with Kirino picking up boxes that are simply rotoscoped CG. Episode 1's ending also features CG bubbles.

Sena immediately wonders if Kyousuke has a Siscon fetish, and Kuroneko wants to know exactly what they were talking about regarding the last statement. In episode 3, when their father is about to throw out the hentai games, a list of options pop up. He could either let his father do that, he could try fighting (and likely losing) his father, or he could "save the little sisters". He chooses the third option, and claims the games are his, and that he's been using Kirino's computer to play them. Which earns a punch in the face from his father, but saves the games for Kirino. In episode 5, when Kirino is attempting to make up with Ayase, he claims that he loves his little sister and that anime and manga brought them closer together. But he says it in such a way that to Ayase it sounds like he's corrupting her, and makes up with her immediately, while ruining his reputation with her...temporarily... In volume 10, Kanako, Kuroneko, and Manami are all arguing as to who should make food for him while he's living alone in his apartment. He says that if the girls are going to be fighting over him because of that, he'll just eat out everyday. That option immediately gets rejected by all 3 girls simultaneously. So Saori jokingly says she'll take care of it, using her vast amount of money, which also earns the ire and some Death Glares from all of the other girls.

He turns down Manami in episode 16 after her Anguished Declaration of Love and No-Holds-Barred Beatdown with Kirino. And in the end, even the relationship between Kirino and Kyousuke appears to have been only temporary. Jossed with the new reveal from the afterstory.

Yet several more in episode 6 of season are heard. The first is with Kirino telling Kyousuke, Kuroneko, and Saori that she's dating Mikogami, whom they met earlier at Comiket. The second one is given by Kuroneko, when she asks Kyousuke out at the end of the episode. Two more in episode 8 of season 2. The first is when Kyousuke tells Kirino he's dating Kuroneko.

The tsun/dere ratio is a bit more equal in the novel, and actually goes more heavy on the dere-dere in the manga thanks to all her Moe blushing mannerisms.

Hints of his younger sister possibly having more than sisterly feelings for him are also abound. He's a non-otaku reliable guy who doesn't mind the otaku lifesyle of the girls, and thus a good catch. Although he does state that Kirino has virtually turned him into an Otaku at some point, which probably further cements this trope on him given his completely normal appearance. In the (non-canon) PSP Visual Novel, he can end up with basically any of the female characters in the show.

Ending of Episode 4, of course. Kirino, leaving Comiket with armfuls of doujinshi and otaku goods, runs into her model friend Ayase. Kyousuke often suffers from this trope as well, such as when his mom was about to walk in on him playing an eroge, and in episode 7, Manami calling while he's in a love hotel with Kirino, and she overhears some stuff Kirino says about the place.

Oreimo / int_c0e3994b	comment	In episode 11 of season 2, Kuroneko brings some sandwiches over to Kyousuke's apartment early in the morning, stating that she wouldn't have time to do so after school. Ayase calls her out on it, saying she just really wanted to show off her uniform during a time where they'd more likely be alone. Kuroneko's lack of a response seems to prove Ayase's claim. When Kyousuke tells Ayase that she said the same thing about not having time after school just moments earlier, she responds by hitting him in the stomach.

He also thinks she looks plain; so much so that he thinks to himself that even were The Glasses Gotta Go trope in effect she'd still look plain. That said, Kyousuke does mention how much he appreciates her being plain and normal since that's also how he describes himself. He mentioned that he wanted to go to the same college with her, not because he was in love with her or anything, but because he finds his relationship with her close and comfortable.

However, Ria, her roommate from when she trained in the US, has a rematch race with her in episode 4 of season 2. When Kyousuke sees them running, even he realizes that Ria, despite being two years younger than Kirino, is a prodigy and is clearly faster than Kirino. However, he notes that Kirino is at least facing her challenge head on, whereas when she was surpassing him in academics and athletics, he just gave up. So he cheers her on, and with that inspiration, Kirino nearly catches up to Ria before the finish line.

Kyousuke once again gets this treatment by several characters during episodes 14-16 in season 2. Most surprisingly is one given by Manami, who outright tells them that their relationship wouldn't be accepted so easily by society, or their parents, whom she threatened to tell.

But it turns out she wanted him out so he really could study for his exams, since she saw how much the sibling's relationship with each other had improved drastically, and that would help motivate him to study hard. The ending of the series itself can be seen as such. Since it appears that the ending was planned by Kirino beforehand, and improvised into action after Kyousuke's unexpected confession.

Oreimo / int_eee69e44	comment	Boke and Tsukkomi Routine: Kyousuke acting as the straight man to the various odd people around him forms the structure of many scenes. This is even turned into a game mechanic in the PSP Visual Novel, where during Two Shot scenes you have to choose when to tsukkomi (that is, rebut or counter) the person you're talking to.

Oreimo / int_f6f2ff1	comment	Insult Backfire: In episode 13 of season 1, Kuroneko tries to ridicule Sena's love for homoerotic games. Sena instead takes it as a compliment, and freaks everyone out. It's only after she tells them about a dream she had of Makabe getting gang-raped by the male members of the club that she realizes that she went too far. During episode 11 of season 2, Ayase calls Kuroneko a pervert after the latter say some rather interesting things regarding Kyousuke and Kirino. Kuroneko says she doesn't care about that.

Oreimo / int_f818b637	type	Dude, Where's My Respect?
Oreimo / int_f818b637	comment	Dude, Where's My Respect?: Kyousuke goes through great lengths to help Kirino's secret hobby become accepted by their father and her best friend Ayase. He also helps her to meet Saori and Kuroneko, which she forms a strong bond with and would never have met on her own. And even though he didn't really want to, he plays the gal games and eroge that Kirino dumps on him. Despite this and more, she still treats him like dirt for the most part. In the afterstory she appears to have dropped the Tsundere attitude towards Kyousuke for the most part.

Oreimo / int_fb56b948	comment	My Sister Is Off-Limits: Both Kyousuke and Kouhei feel this way towards their respective sisters, although in Kouhei's case, it's more because of Brother–Sister Incest hints. Kirino tries to do an inverted example by getting jealous and angry at any woman she feels is too close to Kyousuke, especially Manami, and later, Kuroneko.

Oreimo / int_fdc1e848	type	Will They or Won't They?
Oreimo / int_fdc1e848	comment	Will They or Won't They?: However, for most viewers, this is not so much in context of "Will they or won't they get together?" but more so toward "Will they or won't they enter an incestuous relationship?". It's essentially one of the main draws of the show, whether the audience wants to see it or not. Pertaining to the novels, Volumes 4-6 invoke this trope, and takes it to its ending by the cliffhanger of Volume 6. And we get the answer in the final 12th novel and the afterstory - yes they successfully do, although it gets publicly ended and continues privately.
