Yeah I've heard some awesome stuff about that show and I'm looking to watch it soon. It looks interesting enough.
Oreimo made me want to stab my eyes out with just how overly bitchy the sister was, and how pathetic the main character was.
That's kinda the whole point, it's a meta tsundere anime. Which means cold and cute I believe. It gets better but yeah they're annoying at first how badly they fit into their archetypes. It's not really an anime meant for casual anime fans.
I finished Melancholy yesterday. The anime was meh, not a lot of substance or plot and there was just a little too much moeshit for me. The ending was a bit unfulfilling and disappointing while leaving some plot holes but I guess it's almost expected from an anime of this genre. I didn't hate it but it wasn't that good either. (and no I'm not salty about the endless eight, I only watched the first 2 and the last oneEasily a top 3 fav for me. Sorry I'm replying to everyone who even mentions it but I've been wanting to discuss it, but none of my friends have seen itLet me know when you finish it
).
Really. The moe stuff didn't really bother me because Haruhi would acknowledge it for what it was, and so it was making fun of it in a way. I thought it was well done. And the ending wasn't supposed to be the "ending" I don't think. It's just the anime was dropped because it wasn't doing as well as they thought it should have (I think I read that somewhere). But yeah, I do agree the ending definitely left me wanting more. I liked it because 1) the animation was really good and that scores big points with me and 2) it dealt with a really abstract concept that I could really wrap my head around. That and the characters were likable too. But to each their own of courseI finished Melancholy yesterday.

The movie though, I thought it was excellent and it was really enjoyable.
Honestly, I quite liked Oreimo, but I wasn't expecting it to be anything more than what was presented to me, and I ended up finding the show to be quite hilarious. The ending between S1 and the pilot of S2 threw me off quite a bit, though, because of how vastly different they were, but realized there was an alt ending they used on release, not the televised version.
I agree with your opinions good sir, we should be friends.
Upon further research it's called Valvrave the Liberator.Still no idea if it's good.I like Mecha series but after Star Driver Imma look before I leap.
Valvrave isn't good, but it's going to be fun to see how badly that train is going to crash.
And yet another season without anything to see.sigh.
You could try Suisei no Gargantia [myanimelist]. It pertains to mechs, thought it was quite good. I left off on ep4, so I can't tell you what it's currently like, but I did like what I had seen. I'm pretty behind on all the current seasons shows, though, since I was catching up on some back logged anime, and Initial D Stage 5 just finished, with no hint at whether it would come back to finish or not, since it is currently caught up to the manga.
I usually like anything were the main character isnt a harem mary sue pussy like the guy from Index.I also like Mecha series very much.
