Oreimo/Fridge: Difference between revisions

** Because his character is meant to replicate the submissiveness of the moe anime character (think Mikuru Asahina); the type of girl often featured in H-games (with the provisio that I haven't played them very much). It's a massive role reversal and massive ironic twist; it shows that the same traits that [men] seek in that kind of anime character would actually be really annoying in real life.

Two family members ignoring one another for years on end (as Kyousuke and Kirino were at the start) is a pretty terrible thing, especially in a family-centric culture like Japan's. Now that a dialogue has finally opened up between them after so many years, Kyousuke obviously wants to do everything he can to keep it that way. It's not quite a matter of submission, it's more that Kyousuke's trying to make up for all the years that he didn't make himself available to Kirino as her big brother. In fact, Kyousuke has a line in the manga that supports this:

* Saori [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Bajeena]]. At first she may seem to be little more than a [[Shout-Out]] to the alias Char Aznabel takes in Zeta Gundam. {{spoiler|Then cut to a scene where you don't see her face and she is flanked by two maids, showing her as a rich Ojou.}} Then it hit me; Quattro Bajeena was the alias Char used when he joined the AEUG, so that he could hide in plain sight and still achieve his goals. Now replace the goals of showing humanity the error of their ways with; wanting to buy anime, manga and eroge. Saori is being true to her ideals in the same way that Char was. Well played... - [[User:GX Next]]
