Nogizaka Haruka and Ore no Imouto… Two different worlds on the Otaku Subculture.
I have always wondered about the themes Ore no Imouto covered since it was a topic that has been done in the past, but not well executed. Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu covered only the surface of the Otaku subculture but only to throw it out of the window in the second season.
While there are some resemblances of the two shows, they are significantly different. The difference between them is what I want to cover. (Original Image)

Amagami SS – Rihoko Sakuri’s Arc – Final Impressions
Friendzoned FOREVER? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Basically this is the reaction from all the viewers after the concusion of Rihoko’s arc. In my opinion, Rihoko deserved better. How come all the other girls win Junichi over and childhood friends lose most of the time? Why can’t it be like Kanon where the childhood friend wins all the time? It’s really sad since she had a really good friends and a cute personality… I feel sorry for her since she would probably be lonely for the rest of her life since her relationship will be nothing more than just friends.
Overall, Rihoko’s arc was okay, but the ending seems more like a melancholic ending more than a happy ending seen with the other girls. Sure it was enjoyable with loli Miya, Rihoko’s clumsiness and Junichi’s perverseness. Sadly, she didn’t succeed and I think Junichi doesn’t deserve her because of it. Shame on him!
Hopefully Tsukasa’s arc will make the show redeem itself from its poorly executed arcs… Otherwise, I have nothing else to say.
Overall Rating
7.5/10. C
