Lol, these character outfits, it's a bit early for Halloween.

I have to admit, Yuu has guts. To be able to confess to Suzuka like that...it takes guts. As usual, the animation quality is medicore and nothing worth to write home about. Suzuka seems rather happy after knowing how Yuu feels.

Not great, but a definite improvement over last week, IMO.

Man... this fucking animation.

An ecchi series with a ton of pantyshots and no weird fantasy setting or overly serious story to drag it down. I should be happy, and I think I would be if the animation wasn't so awful.

I hope someone translates the Light Novels because that panchira scene is exactly my kind of ecchi.

It looks better than the 2nd ep!

There were still some derpy faces and awkward shots, but also some really decent looking scenes. Definitely better than last week's ep.


Loved some of the scenes between Yuu and Suzuka. :D

Also
too bad I had to turn my head about 15 times during this ep (why did they even make these scenes like that?) but she looked cute here

Fanservice aside a decent episode that expanded upon well on Suzuka's character and her strong motivation for wanting to be a LN author. The insight into Mai's dedication towards having correct roles for characters was also interesting. The outfits showoff was amusing and the girls did look nice in them. Its nice that Yuu was able to find the true feelings that lie inside Suzuka's work though. That confession to Suzuka though was cute especially given how much it improved her mood. Looks like Suzuka's plan is progressing well.

Mouth movements during conversation looks so strange in this show.
Comedy was kinda forced in this episode. That panchira joke was a little funny.

Animation was better from like a 1/10 to like a 3. So not saying much there.

It was fine for what is was. Loads of costumes in this one.

I liked the first half with the panchira and the costumes but I cringed with the second half, I don't know, I don't have any problem with incest in anime but for some reason I don't like this relationship, plus I hate the MC seiyu's voice.

Then, visually it's still bad but at least not as bad as the previous episode, my biggest complaint comes with the moment of the costumes, why did they have to do those rotated shots? it was a good moment of fanservice where the logical thing was to do a vertical panning to show the costume but no, they decided to do those strange shots in which you didn't even appreciate the girls well and on top of that gave you a headache. Goddammit!

The bad animation and drawings actually helped the show gain popularity in Japan. On niconico it's among the top 10 of the most watched shows this season. Japanese love their QUALITY or 'Sakuga Houkai' (as they call it) shows. I mean, Musashi Gundoh was quite popular as well for exactly the same reason.

It`s hard to pinpoint what has led to this mess of a production. I looked at the credits and both episodes were animated at Studio Buyu, but the curious thing is, that no animators or inbetweeners were credited, just Studio Buyu. Buyu also doesn't have an animation department, they specify in Inbetween and clean-up work (2nd Key Animation), meaning that they either outsourced it even further or used they staff for work that they are not fit for.

They tried to improve the animation by actually animating less. Most scenes were talking heads with very little movements. Some minor improvements in the art but it still looks utter shite.

What's was with the sideways shots? I had to keep tilting my head . The brother/ sister realitionship is cringeworthy, and when the two other girls started undressing and then getting mad at the MC, gotta love anime logic.

I think the reason people think the animation was slightly better is the same reason why they did the weird sideways-angle shots. They stopped trying to animate the characters in ways that they don't have the time/talent to do, so they replaced those shots to something static and "artsy." Whatever, it's still really bad.

I'm actually opposite of a previous comment, I actually preferred the second half to the first, because to me the panchira jokes seemed clumsy and forced, and the fashion show wasn't anything that I haven't seen a million times before, while I actually dug the imouto's discussion with her brother in her bedroom. It made him reflect on his behavior for a fleeting minute. This wasn't a masterpiece of writing, but dammit it was something.

If they continued to discover their feelings with each other in an organic, mature way, that's the kind of show that interests me personally, but I suspect that we're just going to get every lazy, retread trope this genre has to offer.

It truly is the season of bunny girls. First we had Bunny Girl Senpai, then the epic battle over the colors in Index III, and now this. :D

The girls really should think about what they're doing, though... No matter how much he likes certain characters, there's no way most of their suggestions, especially the fantasy ones, would fit the novel they were talking about...

This is really the worst trash of this season. Honestly the animation is so bad it feels like the studio is trolling us. It's hard to have a fanservice show where everyone is a deformed goblin-creature.

Pretty much the best episode so far, this is the most enjoyable when Yuu and Suzuka interact. It's really meta when you think about it because the same was said about the LN inside the story.

Quality wise there were some derpy and also good shots.

I also learned something new, didn't know that accidentally seeing panties had its own term in Japan.

I think the author just wants to use her as a vessel to get all his fetishes in. He wants to do the ‘girl gets embarrassed when a boy sees her panties’, but somehow also the ‘girl nonchalantly flashes her panties to the MC without getting embarrassed’

Also, why is it not embarrassing for her to give him a full on pantyshot but embarrassing to be wearing buruma in front of him? That’s one extra layer on top of the panties.

Yeah, the most accurate English translation would be pantyshot. But I guess in this context the translators decided keeping it as is would be better.

I'm really liking this so far. This show keeps getting better.

Out of all the Imouto shows I've seen, Suzuka has to be the cutest Imouto yet. If I had such a cute sister, there'd be no stopping me.

People, stop shitting yourselves over the animation quality and just enjoy all the moe this show has to offer. Sure it deserves better, but I'm grateful to have such a cute show to watch every Wednesday.

I actually appreciate translators who aren't liberal trash.
While the term "pantyshot" would be totally appropriate, it's better this way: it gives more insight into Japanese otaku culture and the setting of the scene. The term "pantyshot" in English is self explanatory - it doesn't take into account the way Japanese abbreviate things when making a new term like this - and would cause confusion as to why it'd need to be explained.

Finally a little bit improvement in department of graphic. Still low-to-average but appreciated the work.
But...

Internal conflict start, but maybe still a long road before the waifu war. Hey, I think I will on that red-haired girl's side. Come on, imouto lose in imouto-based anime is a great twist in history.

1st pointer: It hurts BADLY!
2nd pointer: A teeny weeny bit...
3rd pointer: Bad by all accounts...
4th pointer: Same director for Hajimete no Gal, asked NAZ for help while making his own studio (which became Magia Doraglier).

With that said, every plot holes just went awry in this episode, especially the incest to come. Talk about going from bad to worse...

Why do i cringe somuch watching this episode... never been in my life i watched an anime that made me cringe like this..

So previous ep's animation was worse than this? Didn't really noticed it since this episode was so boring compared to last ep. Maybe i'm just too late to notice it, but what made me bored watching this episode, especially the second half, is the almost total lack of music, was 2 other episode lack music as well?

Really, with this kind of quality and the fact that it'll only have 10 episode, it just made me sad and feared the futre of this series. Was the LN good anyway?

This anime is the worst. They tried to trick the viewers that they've improved the animation quality by inserting those weird-ass sideway shots, since they don't have to animate much that way. I don't think I'll drop this show if they didn't use such cheap methods. They're taking us, fans as idiots and that touched my nerve. This is my first time dropping an anime because of animation quality. The story is not that bad actually. I feel really sorry for the poor LN author who got this. Maybe I'll read the LN if I have the chance.
