Review of OreImo Specials
OPINION TEXT ONLY - Contains spoiler First of all, before I make any remarks on these special episodes, I scored Ore No Imouto Konnani Kawaii Wake Ga Nai with a 4. There were lots of flutuations in quality, a big lack of criativity and a very, very annoying Kirino by the barrel full. Nonetheless, I gave these specials a chance. I quite didn't like (or dislike) the first episode (the real episode 12) until the last part, when Kirino actually travalled to the USA. It's in episodes 2 and 3 that I really, really loved these specials. The abcense of Kirino and the main rolefor Kuroneko payed off. There were lots of enjoyable moments, good dialogues and characters, even though some people may not like the excessive approach on the otaku community. I personally loved the Akagi-Fujoshi thing, the constant yaoi references and the acting.
Then, episode 4 kinda disappointed. Standard Ore No Imouto episode, Kirino as the main star (that's bad) and another bad conclusion. I mean, how''s it possible that after a bad ending, the producers create a series of specials to counter that, and still make the same mistake, ending, yet again, in an awful way?
I would like to stood out the excelent and very loveble character Kuroneko, which was very well voiced. Her lines were particullary pleasant, and she kept the show rolling with a good pacing.
My real problem with the True Route, is the following: being this an attempt to erase the original ending, it failed miserably, because it ends with another bad ending. That's why, independent of the great amount of enjoyment and particular affection to Kuroneko, I score the True Route with a 7.
