Weird as in... I don't know what's it after. Main bro doesn't seem to get a boner or anything about the sister besides just being a bro. Other cast are just around mostly. Fanservice is random at times and never too... in your face.
Show is just weird. weird. weird.
but cute.

Oreimo threads are an excellent demonstration of the difference between "normal for otaku who are knee-deep in the anime" and "normal for other nerds."

Going by google, Situation Normal All Fucked Up.
nah its normal for any nerd.
Us nerds are weird creatures by default.
The trick is to embrace that weirdness. Revel in it. Enjoy yourself.
I prefer the alternative title: My youth romantic comedy is wrong as I expected.
No but it's preferable to Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru.

Naruto Shippuden 315
I still don't like Yota.
But dear lord, both of the scenes when he's leaving everyone are so sad. This episode alone almost makes up for the two awful ones from before.

Anything that delves into incest or even insinuates it will be considered weird, and understandably so, by most people.
I mean anime almost has a genre for this and very few of them handle the taboo tastefully. Not saying such shows shouldn't exist but theres a reason why people will judge you and the show.
I never much gave a fuck about people judging me (except my Dad but thats another story).
But anyway, if theres a whole genre formed around it, it cant be very weird anymore by definition.
Now its just normal.

It's the best show of its kind in recent memory anyway.
unlikable characters doing uninteresting things. really boring.
though the main girl is almost like a senjougahara-lite so you might like it

except it doesn't really... for a show with that kind of title, barely any incestous stuff even happens outside of really rare groping, 'kyaa i'm naked' scenes.
It's mostly quite tame and just a normal bro sis relationship with a slight twist.
snafuuu is fun. A bit of downer that best girl is a guy, but I like the jibs of the mc.
To continue rolling with the Natsu no Arashi! theme; if you end up reaching the opening (don't skip episodes, please), take this guide with you... so nice to see the true worth of this:

Normal for who?

I would like to see how one of these threads plays out without animegaf interference.
It would probably die after 2 pages of "lol japan" and getting bumped by a "WTF" once in a while.
So how it is now seems a lot more entertaining, I think righteous gaf is having a good time as well.

It does remind me though of a show known as My Sister is an Osaka Mamma.
It's like... a HEY this is what WE do, and this is what people in Osaka do.
The first few seconds before the title card though makes it sound like incest, so in a way, they're not helping themselves when they choose to present themselves that way.
Oh shit. now I'm kind of interested. Except that could also mean she might be seen as a pale copy of Senjou in which case it might just be bad.
for any fan of anime.

Huh, I had no idea those were references to 80s album covers.

Bro that is not by any means of the imagination a normal brother sister relationship.
There's tons of instances were incest has been insinuated especially in season 2. As long as there's some trace people will pick up on it because its such a sensitive issue in the medium.
.
Yeah no. There are a lot of questionable "genres" and you may argue that by the literal definition of weird they are not but the content is still off putting and even offensive to some people.
would that story happen to be a four-panel comic ending with angry father face?
I am quite a skinny non-neckbeard and I definitely wouldnt show my father uguu anime as an example (probably something like Kino) but otherwise yes its definitely like that.
I think my dad cares a lot less about my hobbies now since I am making ends meet all on my own without his help. I think it more just bothers him that Im not into the hobbies he is into as much. He did help me get the curio into my room as well as move furniture and shit. Im sure he just wants me to be a certain something that I am really not.

She has a sharp tongue and cuts down the MC any chance she gets, but they're not nearly as charming as Araragi or Senjougahara.

Detective Conan 200:
This episode did a pretty good job with the Kogorou/Eri relationship, even though Kogorou was absent for much of the time. It was nice to see once again just how smart Eri is, and how determined she is. Ran, on the other hand, was a complete idiot, regularly completely missing the point of what her mother was trying to do, and even actively hindering her with her own stupidity. The final scene with
was very touching.
Yamamura, as per usual, is a complete idiot who fails to get anything right at any moment.

I didnt say every anime fan had to enjoy those genres, just that they are prevalent enough not to be weird. Theres nothing in Oreimo that wasnt explored to some degree before in other anime. Its really not a strange thing to see anime pandering to siscon.
Man, that Oreimo thread feels disappointingly tame. It's like everyone's just going through the motions by now.
But just because something is prevalent does not necessarily make it okay. I'd say if anything, starting to see this sorta stuff as something normal and not at all out of the ordinary should be the really worrisome part.

Yep. And from the 70s, like the Naomi Chiaki ones... even 60s! Direct comparison for the opening alone:

Boss ep.1
A pretty cool detective drama... The characters are all kind of cliché but still cool.
The strong female detective, the rookie, the gay dude who touches everyone's ass (well, the guys' asses), the old man...
And there's my waifu Toda Erika as the nerd!
As always the sfx look terrible, there was a god awful explosion in the first episode. Laughed so hard...
Still, it's enjoyable :lol
Oh and, would Tamayama Tetsuji

What is the most lewd anime sister gif y'all got around to nuke that thread with?
can't be too lewd... but straddle that line.

I'm sure I have a few Yosuga no Sora gifs, but that's WAY too lewd.
Just as long as you don't post it yourself. Should you really be tempting your luck like that?
Dude...if you really think that saying "but there's lots of incest pandering anime out there" is going to make people think that the subject matter is any less distasteful or make them any less disturbed that people watch it, or that it's any less weird, then I really don't know what to say.
I'm going to go take a nap with my kitty.

Oh yeah!
As a side note, I like how even though it's probably a bullshit answer, they were prepared to put some kind of thought into how to make it work in a sense.
I also makes me think a bit of Aria when someone asked a question along the lines of "Wait, if these characters are teenagers but apparently the Martian year is twice as long as an Earth year, what age are they working from?"
I mean presumably, they would work along the lines of Earth-time - possibly celebrating two birthdays a "year" - but then what of those who were Martian born? Then I get confused and give up.
Anyway, for those that have switched over to hummingbird, I've made a list of names from people that have posted here. Quote to see the list.
My own slight contribution.
I feel like having a popsicle for some reason.
The shonen guy doesn't recognise Gintama? Wut.

If I one day found out that my younger sister was playing porn games that involved under age girls and their brothers.....I..I can't even think what I will do because its such a mindfuckingly dumb situation.
Most times I've seen anime that have "siscon" use it when there brother is over protective or comedial purposes so you could say that. I think Oreimo is the real deal though.
I know the anime but not much of it apart form the blue haired guy. I heard really good things about it and plan to watch it later.
