How would you feel if a ghost told you, you had to love you sibling or else go to the depth of hell?

That is the situation in Saikin, imouto no yousugu chotto okashiindaga.

Though hell is a scary place to go, just because some random person told to you to something awkward does not make it any easier.

This is about a ghost and she taking over a girl. It is a fun and enjoyable adventure to see what the ghost is able to get the girl to do to her "oniisama". The characters reactions are fun and the story is both intriguing and exciting. However, expect ... this fun ride to be over real soon (like a short story or film). The updates are not the quickest but still, if you have the patience, you should definitely read this.

NOTE: this is not a hentai nor incest. The brother and sisters are not related by blood but my marriage of parents (or something along those lines). Also, the ghost is weird. :P have fun reading.

If you asked me last week what "Recently My Sister is Unusual" or "Saikin, Imouto no Yousu ga Chotto Okashiinda ga" was id say "it is a generic ecchi series about a step sister who was possesed by a ghost who happens to be in love with her brother" however i can no longer say that because this series, this thing i regarded as trash just made me feel something.
At first I was like all of you and thought "lmao this is shit" then unbeknownst to me and all my expectations they started pulling out lore things about their afterlife the reason why this ... ghost needed to posses the sister, their shared past, and also who the "ghost" really was.
And I got hooked.
It felt like watching a horrific car accident that you can't look away from but through some miracle it avoided everything and the driver walked away from it.
My favorite part of this series other than the world is that the main character isn't the kinda generic older brother, while he is a major charecter the story largely follows the sister which is a nice change of pace.
This is like the first series of its kind (Oreimo, eromanga sensei, my sister my writer, etc.) that gave me an ending I didn't hate, that was well written and, that had an interesting world.
The reason my feelings are conflicted is that I will have to defend giving this an 8/10 for the rest of my life.
Critically its not an 8/10 even i can see that and it will fail close scrutiny as the story and lore elements are a bit too shallow and not fleshed out enough in the length we got but i appreciate that the author took a shot and ran with it thats something i can respect and im exited to read whatever he comes up with next so while its not a masterpiece its still an 8/10 in my heart.
