Ane Log: Big Sister Moyako's Never-ending Monologue

Is a very funny anime about an older sister Moyako who thinks her younger brother Akira has a sister complex and is obsessed with her.

This is all due to the fact that one time as a kid he told her he wanted to marry her someday. Moyako has never forgotten that event (even though her brother has) and is now convinced he's a pervert.

She misinterprets all of his actions and wording. She constantly creates these scenarios in her mind that her brother is secretly checking her out and secretly plotting to make her his wife.

Mayako is pretty ... funny. And the way she pictures her brother as a pervert is hilarious.

Its a fun watch. But pretty short. Only 3 episodes.

wow what a series stumbled upon this on a whim. the imagination of the older sister is way to funny. the lack of self awareness is comical. like she just won't admit to herself that she is the one with the sibling complex. because of this ova I definitely plan on reading the manga to discover more hilarious antics. the story was pretty simple to follow along with. while some parts were predictable as I see it its not always the destination but the journey taken to get to the end that is most fun. one of the many reasons I enjoy works of Japanese ... writers more than western ones these days because they are able to tell better stories.

This is a 3 part ova about older sister who thinks that her brother is a dangerous pervert that is in love with her. As you can see from the premise, it is a comedy.

Story: 5/10

As you can see it is a comedy, and it mostly revolves around main character coming up with a new absolutely ridiculous delusion about something her brother "is planning" to do. This usually results in a long over the top monologue with a few images for illustrative purposes. The story managed to make me chuckle couple of times, but it is not stellar. It revolves around one kind of gag, ... pretty much, but waiting for the heroine to snap into one of the delusional rants is kinda amusing - because those moments are not very predictable. Still, it could be better.

Art: 6/10: Actually, I liked character designs. They're drawn as adult or older teens, with realistic proportions, and their designs are visually appealing. So, it is much better than, say, recently watched "Saipu" (which wasn't that good). The anime uses quite a few time saving techiniques, of course, but overall it looks fairly well.

Sound: 5/10: nothing to say about this one, pretty much. Music does its job, but does not stand out. Heroine goes a bit over the top with her acting on occasion, but it is good.

Characters: 5/10 Due to short length and nature of the show, there's not much time for them to show much of their personality, and overall they're mostly caricatures with a few hints of something more. They're not completely unbelievable caricatures, hwoever.

Enjoyment: 5/10 - It was alright. As I said, the anime resulted in a chuckle or two, but it was not a masterpiece material.

Overall: 5/10 - worth a watch, but don't expect too much. It is visually appealing, and not TOO silly with its jokes.
