And even then, the author got a lot of other death threats for ships, namely Kuroneko :V Well, if you didn't know, the Kuroneko fanboys only did that after the author changed and extended the plot. Originally the LN was announced to end in the volume where MC was dating Kuroneko, which the flood of death threat letters of Kirino fanboys presumably started. On the same day that volume was released, there was an announcement that the LN series would be extended. And in the same volume, it ended with Kuroneko breaking up with the MC. Coincidence? Who knows. But 1 thing is for sure, after Kuroneko fanboys expressed their anger, harrassment from the Kirino fanboys escalated. In any case, regardless of which group they belong to, the actions by all of them are pretty disgusting.

What if he planned to ship the siblings from the very start? And I'm not saying this just because. Watching the anime, from episode 1, everything that happened made the ending feel natural... unless it's just the anime changing a lot. Maybe he did, mayb he didn't, but don't you find it weird that he suddenly had the intention to extend the LN after receiving death threat letters? I mean, I'm not some legendary detective or anything, but I sure have enough common sense to figure out that the timing for all these events sure happened too conveniently. And i f you only watched the anime, you wouldn't be too well-informed about the whole incident, considering it happened sometime before that. I knew about it cause I was following the LN while it was still being written.

I didn't watch the anime completely cause the sequel was out when I had too many projects on hand, and the LN showed me that it should take the lower priority among the series I can choose from to watch when I'm free. Also the anime sequel was released after the LN ended for real this time, so it might be actually made to look more natural in the anime. (this is my opinion, not very sure as I didn't watch the anime's sequel)

... Why wouldn't it have? The "choice" scene already implied the childhood being portrayed that way :/

I mean, I can see how you feel like the blame was pushed on to Manami, but still. If you knew what was written up to 1 volume before the originally intended final volume, you would know that Manami was completely never supposed to be involved in how Kirino would turn out this way at present day, and it was only added after the decision to extend more.

What ending would you have wanted that would have made you satisfied? You're acting just like the death threat senders right now, just not as extreme. Please watch your words, I said right from the start that this is purely my opinion. I'm not trying to pick a fight, so please don't try to taunt me. For starters, regardless of what ending is given, incest is morally wrong to begin with, not to mention lawfully illegal, so no matter how good you think the development is, calling a subtly hinted incest ending great is pretty disturbing.

Kirino isn't likable for any of us. I understand that, but again, that helps the MC become more likable. Development = good. You don't have to like her, just don't call the entire series bad just because of her :V And please enlighten me how am I supposed to think that a series is good, when you are supposed to like a character who is a prime example of an ungrateful person? MC putting up with Kirino makes him a likeable and good character, but not a good brother. His actions are actually bad for Kirino in the long run because she does not learn that what she does is actually bad, and will affect her future in society. This is especially important as she is a middle schooler going through puberty (which is 1 of the key learning phases of your life), and her harsh actions and rude choice of words may be tolerated by her family, but not by outsiders. As a family member, you are supposed to teach your younger siblings what is right and wrong, rather than condone their mistakes in fear that they would hate you.

To put it bluntly, this series is like an embodiment of bad morals put together, yet none of the characters bother to point it out, and worse yet, condone those bad morals. If you can still call it a great series with all these taken into consideration, I would like to believe that your judgement is clouded by your love for the series.

So rather than the series itself you just don't like that fact? That's that, the franchise is another :/ And I do dislike both the fact and the series, because the wrong impressions and suggestions carry off a long way. Young readers like yourself might end up thinking that as long as our family supports our actions, its all right to do as we please. Society isn't as kind, understanding and forgiving as our family, and we will end up learning the hard way if that is how we think. In the writer's perspective, that is the 1 thing you should never ever want your readers to get the wrong impression of. That is a key reason I find it not a great series.
