The fourth episode fan-favorite Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai delivered yet more of the goodness appreciated in earlier episodes, including a healthy amount of brother-sister service along with a trip to Comiket, the most holy of otaku events.
For those few dwellers under a rock who might still be unfamiliar with the series, last week’s article went into enough detail on the particulars concerning seiyuu, studio, and such to make for a good reading.
Those already familiar with the fun mix of a Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu and KissxSis style story combined with a bigger budget and more polish should be able to dive right in.
Those particular mini-shorts of Kirino appear to be a favorite of hers, given how often she has them on both in the manga and anime.
The game Kyosuke plays throughout the episode, Siscalypse (a portmanteau of ‘sister’ and ‘apocalypse’) happens to be filled with Magical Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha references, such as Raising Heart’s tagline above, and the Nanoha-esque magical circles for the character’s spellcasting.
The victorious Reika here appears to be a non-specific Touhou reference also.
Saori’s in-game avatar is cute enough, but even here the anime denies a look at the face behind megane, as the manga does as early as its first volume…
The scene below is undoubtedly the highlight of the entire episode:
The odd fluffy appearance of Kirino’s bra underneath Kyosuke’s clutching hand is distinctive…
A necessary accoutrement for any true otaku’s residence – boxes of ero-doujinshi.
The CM during Tokyo MX’s broadcast incidentally had a number of Ore no Imouto ads, including one for the light novels that relayed the importance bits of information above.
In the unlikely event anyone is interested in Kyosuke:
As the last episode’s preview promised, a trip to the glorious Comiket, a must for basically all anime that put forth fellow otaku as main characters:
As we’ve seen here before, itasha are another of Comiket’s usual attractions.
Note the Fate/Stay Night lookalike on the far left.
The crowds at the Comiket are legendary, although this is presumably Day 1, and not the even more ero-oriented Day 3 which is always the worst as far as crowding goes.
Kyosuke is still discovering ero-doujinshi!
Kirino engaging in a much appreciated bout of Kuroneko stripping.
The company booth area above never actually gets this empty, mind you.
This particular screenshot of Reika’s tentacle attack leaves a lasting impression on the mind…
Fully moving into the rotating-ED system, this week’s ED was this beautiful technicolor, if static, sequence with a song named 白いココロ / Shiroi Kokoro (White Heart).
The song is actually sung by Ayase Aragaki (CV: 早見沙織 / Saori Hayami, voice of Higashi no Eden’s Saki and Sekirei’s Musubi), Kirino’s dark-haired friend from earlier in the episode.
The lovingly moe-some illustration by 左 / Hidari used in the ED doubles as this week’s ending art:

This is win ;____;
It's loli-licking good.
Kirino should stop padding her bra, onii-chan would appreciate some DFC.
From the previous episodes I kind of did not expect such an overused classic misunderstanding scene but oh well, I guess this one's gonna end just like any other incest anime out there.
"She's not actually your real sister" and - in we put...
I will need to visit that Otaku Mecca at least once in my lifetime, no matter the months of starvation following.
I feel its a duty.
lol, her brother is 175 cm long? That's a tall japanese man right there.
This is on the more ero-oriented 3rd day, when they first go inside the girls mention that the line wasn't as bad as it was the previous day or the day before that.
Anyone else notice how distinctively... average every single participant at Comiket is?
Just, you know. Seems a bit of an irritating 'pandering to the audience' thing.
The ending photo is in 3D!!!! \@^@/

WiNCEST!
Wincest FTWCEST! This is such a delicious anime!
Fuck this shit! It's all to pollute your mind! This shit ass shitty shit!
some of us likes getting polluted.
Pffft... Like the world is any better than this anime...
There was a shooting against a family who was hosting a birthday party for their middle child (15) and among the dead is his mother along with 20 other dead and 16 wounded, government officials all over the world enrich themselves illicitly among many other things...
But this anime pollutes the mind...
Shyeah, right...
fail troll is fail
Nothing like a does of WINCEST in the morning...
Better than a cup of coffee in this cold weather~
Which reminds me...I better get ready for Comiket Winter...
Pic #15: "Stop that at once!"
Mom enters the room.
"How could you start without me, you meanies!"
I won't wonder if in the near future Ayase confesses to Kyousuke that she likes him. With that as a probable event, How would Kirino react to that?
Lol,reminded me of an ero-doujin of Kyousuke bangin' both Kirino and Ayase simultaneously.
Finally some brother incest action!
I been waiting for this yohohohoho `-´~
No...this is EPIC WIN!!
No...this is EPIC WIN o/
Keep the re-caps coming guys! (I like to save the guest artist photos at the end hehe)
I'll do my best to keep recaps going for as long as I can this season.
Glad you like them. ^^
This is so much win*
Exceeded my Expectation !! TOTAL kicks in :3
Lots of anime with comicking as a theme this week. COINCIDENCE GET!
Never been to Comiket but I plan to sometime, I just know I'm gonna get fucked up by the crowd, standing, and heat. Wish me luck.
and just another pantsu anime in the sea of others
What anime doesn't have pantsu these days... You might as well say, it's Anime! And that's good.
These days? Pantsu has always been the trademark of anime and manga since Osamu Tezuka did Astroboy.
A nopan anime like Saki sure would be nice for a change. ^_^
Watch Crayon Shin Chan instead! There you will see your loved brat boy talking with his anus. No pants!
Elephant-san is entertaining, but no loli.
Ore no Imouto... Best anime this season >.<
next season looks even worse
I loved this episode, especially the sister groping part, if it could go wrong...
Fuck incest shit! You will rot in hell for your shit!
Heaven or Hell! Let's rock!
I salute you for the funny Guilty Gear reference, you sir have all my respect.
As for Ore no Imouto, it just keeps getting better and better, lucky bastard Kyousuke seems to have some good time this time...
@Anon 20:05 This is fiction. Hope your god(?) will tell us all with thundering voice from skies that i-anime is wrong. It isn`t in you-know-what book.
It doesn`t even condemn h-anime!
Spoken like a true Comiket veteran.
So how's 2ch taking this episode? No "Ore no Imo has betrayed us! It's turned into a fanservice anime" comments?
the show is boring, so they'll be happy they can at least fap to it :)
Sad that you haven't seen any Ika Musume article for this week?
Thank you Tiger, I am fairly familiar with Comiket. Did it show? ^^;
I don't go out of my way to search for the sort of 2ch discussions you're thinking of, but as far as I've seen, the reaction is quite positive?
In the anime they imply it's the third day as Saori mentions she was there the previous two days. (Not sure if it has been subbed yet)
Not that you can't buy plenty of imouto related stuff on the first two days... They do not seem to be the themes Kirino would be going for. Love walking around there on the fujoshi focused day. ^_^
1. why are those ita cars so ugly ?
2. I bet this ep. will be boring as hell again
3. nekomimi goth loli is only win
boring remarks, try harder to entertain me
1. I see nothing wrong with the cars. I'd love to drive the Mazda in the middle of pic #21.
2. Wincest can't be boring.
3. Kirino should strip her some more. ^_^
Heh, nice Arcana Heart references.
Which one? I can't believe I missed the reference despite being really into AH..
THE FUCK ARE YOU WATCHING?
ORE NO IMOUTO! D:<
