Oreimo had some good moments and some interesting characters. Unfortunately, the main male character creeped me out and I wanted the main female character to die a nasty, horrible death. Other than that, though, yeah, it was okay for awhile.
If the new series turns out to be a carbon copy, I'm just going to skip it before I get drawn in and start thinking that maybe, just maybe, the ending will be decent, only to have it turn into another situation where I just want to burn it down with fire.
