well, after a lot of "rolling" I finally decided to write about this work, I will follow the classic division into topics:

1-Story: I'll be very superficial: an anime that tells the story of two brothers who flirt with each other, as much as the plot is deeper, it doesn't leave this premise, it's not an anime that would impress me, it's not something that has a very well told story or teach you something (I mean, at least not reveal anything to me that I didn't know); in the first season the story was really better told, but the second was something I watched more ... out of obligation, it breaks the original "script".
I really don't like / I don't understand why they like this little sisters and incest thing so much (although I'm Japanese), I can't say I have anything against it, at least not necessarily, but the problem is, it's not taken seriously; to be honest, I'm worried about 7-year-olds seeing this and thinking "that's cool, I'm going to" play "with my sister"; the second season gave itself completely to comedy, became a bit "beast",
to be honest, this anime was one of the ones that irritated me the most, (maybe I don't have the “maturity” to accept the development), but many things were not explained, I'm not the only one who was disappointed with the end of Kuroneko's arc

2-Art:sI'll be honest, I don't like it, it's cute yes, but I would do something better.
The graphics improved in season two, I admit, but still we have errors of proportions mainly in our heads (the designer is probably a guy who does something wrong and says it's his "brand"), and that annoys me, it's a mediocre art , it’s not bad, but it’s far from good / great

3-Sound: bad, really bad, unlike the first season, I can't even remember the opening, at that point there wasn't anything remarkable, I don't know if it was for lack of funds or laziness. but it was bad

4-Character: they're pretty average, I haven't seen any major character development, Kirino is insufferable, it's easy to say something like "how cute" when you're watching it, but when you live it in reality it's hell, they tried to make it look like cute; and I really understand that some might have a fetish for that, but she's a boring character.
Her brother follows the classic model of many works, a guy who has failed but has a "perfume" to attract women, it is unbelievable (I don't know if Japanese people do this because the facts of the authors are often failed in love), but haren I don't like, I'm not saying that animes are made to reflect reality, but it's problematic when young people start to believe in it.
Pray no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai, in my opinion, is an anime saved by the secondary characters, more precisely by Kuroneko, after all, most people ended up watching the anime more for her than for the protagonist.


5-Enjoyment/Overall:the anime as a whole is not bad, but it's mediocre, if you chose this job to laugh, it fulfilled its role, it's a fun anime, laughs in many parts, but that excuse of the author at the end "if you laughed with him for Less once, I fulfilled my goal, "I approved one more sentence to fill a hole, it's an anime that only enters a list of "animes with a bad ending", and which is far from good, it was a job I was too lazy to develop , that simple
But as they say in the first season "damaged things are successful", while this won a second season, many quality animes are interrupted, sad

1-History:The story revolves around a character who seeks to become the leader of the "Nura clan", clan that covers 10,000 youkai, this character lives (at least at the beginning) in an impasse between living as a human or in his "ayakashi" way (he is 1/4 youkai), obviously I couldn’t focus on just that, the work itself is very vast and well built, the plot is well interwoven, requiring a certain intelligence to understand it as a whole (which I admire), in addition a person who started the work "of middle "(as many do) would have difficulty understanding what was going on, this work is a ... butterfly effect, an act in the first episode influences the last.
The story covers several historical periods, and so it ends up teaching us interesting things about those periods, in addition to showing us some interesting thoughts and facts about human (or ayakashis) nature, so I can also say that Nurarihyon no Mago is a work very deep at that point, and very interesting.]
2-Art:very beautiful, a trait that I liked a lot. It's a bit heavy (the black shading just creates this feeling), it doesn't have constant anatomical errors and it has very well-designed action scenes (which surprised me), I really liked the characters' traits, they are very pretty (although not really like the trait of human Rikuo, what big eye is that?)
3-characters:very fine built; Nurarihyon no Mago impresses with the gigantic size of the cast, and it impresses me even more that most are important and we can see a good development, the evolution of Rikuo is commendable, as well as that of Tsurara, the scenes from the past arches show how Kurotabou, Ao and Cia evolved, changed. This manga made me abandon the belief that "humans don't change" (not that ayakashis are humans) for a while, I was really able to examine each character in a very pleasant way, from Rikuo to Abe No Seimei.
4-Enjoyment: this work pleased me very much, it is very original and impressive in several points, a work that captivated me, enough for me to finish everything in about three days, if it was bad I would be reading for weeks, it won me over, simply
5-Overall:Nurarihyon no Mago is a very well-built work, with a well-thought-out story, well-made features and well-developed characters, summing up, it has everything that most works do not have, even though this work is not able to enter between my animes and favorite manga, it sure goes into a "TOP 15", it's a shame that it's not popular, I definitely recommend it, if you're reading this and will read the manga, "welcome and have a great read", if you already I read, "buddy, really, I want a third season"
