Finished watching A Sister's All You Need. Whilst it had some good high points and fun moments, that was a massive nothing of an ending with like, 0 conclusion of anything. You're not gonna trick me into reading LNs to continue this story :argh:

Why do you think they make anime of ongoing LNs?

This. The entire point of most anime is to get you to buy the source material work.

Yeah yeah, I know. They didn't even pretend to have any kind of meaningful arc conclusion or anything though. Just a big load of nothing.

My recollection is that the ending of the show revealed a lot about the relationship between Itsuki and Nayuta, and that Itsuki's motivations were a lot more complex and thoughtful than he let on. As far as a hook to make the audience interested in seeing more, I think it works fairly well. And it's not like it was a particularly plot-driven show to begin with.

It reminded me a lot of the ending to the first anime run of Seitokai no Ichizon, with the "I'm glad I met her in the summer/fall/winter/spring" sequence revealing for the first time the more serious backdrop to the SoL antics.

My brother and his wife gave me an app controlled R2D2 and it's very nerdy but also very cool.

It moves pretty quickly though, as i found out when I promptly drove it off the drat desk. (I caught it in midair)

I don't agree that the manga stands out as dumb in the vast swath of 'japanese teen romcoms' but yes she's great

The Nero stuff in Cestvs is still the weakest part by far but now he's entering his bombastic patron of the arts phase instead of being sad lute boy so he's a little more fun to read about
