The imouto genre is a genre nobody want to be seen with in the same room. Oreimo, Eromanga Sensei, A Sister's all you need, all of these have become infamous for being morally disgusting. So why do these type of anime keep popping up? Just like why any other genre exists: There is audience for it. That type audience may consist of people living home alone and having a restraining order from their local elementary school and sister, but hey there is an audience. And to be completely honest some of these anime are enjoyable if you look past the disgusting stuff.

Introducing Ore Ga Suki (aka My Sister My Writer). This is also part of the fabled Imouto genre and as expected it sucks. The thing that makes it different from other Imouto anime is that even if you took out the Imouto part it still would suck. Yes, Ore Ga Suki is so bad that even people who like the genre would hate it.

So let's dive straight into it. First stop, the plot. The plot is really similar to Eromanga Sensei and is somehow worse. Suzuka and Yu are brother and sister but their relationship is a bit rocky. That changes however when Suzukas novel wins a competition. Yu was already a novel writer but found little succes. Suzuka is not a writer and send in her novel (which is her first) just for fun. Suzuka completely panicks because she actually has a live and if this would come out her social life would be ruined. You know why it would ruin her life? Because it is an imouto novel that was made in order to express her love to her brother. Suzuka convinces Yu to act as he made and now she has to try even harder to hide her lover from her brother.

That's the general premise. The siblings do come across a ton of colorful characters, but it merely acts as filler and fanservice. I can make a whole list of complaints and nitpicks, but I will keep it short: It is disgusting and boring.

Now the music. It is… passable? While I am slightly annoyed by the opening, it is because the fact that it is stuck to this anime and not because of the song itself. The ending and OST I have no comment, except the funky ass song that I heard episode 8 which is the best part of this series.

Oooooooh boy. The animation. I didn't know it was possible to fuck up this bad. Faces morph between frames, body parts look jank, derpy faces is a common occurance and they don't seem to know what way is up seeing the amount of slideshow animation they show ON ITS SIDE WHY DO THEY DO THAT. The animation is just so bad I just kept going back to the anime to see how they fuck it up this time.

The characters. They are….. okay actually. Incredibly cliché and generic, but they could have been way worse. Suzuka is a Tsundere who loves her brother way, way too much. Yu is the ''straight man'' or at least the anime portrays him like that. In actually he is embarrassed all the time and the rest just ignores that. There are a ton of side characters, like Mai (the rival and biggest fan… somehow), Sakura (the clueless voice actor) and Ahegao Double Peace-sensei (her personality is just as perverted as her name). Yeah not anything insulting here. The characters could be better, but I expected much worse from them.

So when it comes to my personal enjoyment, I had a bad experience watching this anime. The writing is horrendous and only made me genuinely chuckle (not ironically) a few times. The rest of the time I was disgusted or utterly frustrated about how this all could have been avoided if they didn’t jumped to conclusions. The only reason I pulled myself through this shit is because of the animation which was so bad it was hilarious.

Now, the last thing I want to talk about before the conclusion is something that pissed me off that isn’t the anime fault, it is the producers fault. In the end of episode 6 there was a hidden cry for help in the ED, which translated to “We are in serious trouble”. It was presumably from one of the animators, but it wasn’t clear on why they send that message. Then eleven days later one of the animators spoke out on twitter. He said that the animators weren’t paid for months and implied that they started making this anime this year when the bear minimum is at least one year. He also said that he wanted to ask the director “Why are we making this?”. When I heard this news, I was disgusted. People shouldn’t be treated like this. That’s why I will lower my score of this anime with one full point. I know that it brings down the anime from a 3 to 2, but I still think it is important consider this controversy when I judge this anime.

Ore Ga Suki is not just a trainwreck, it is natural disaster. The best bits of this anime are passable at best, but the worst bits are sickening. Horrendous animation, morally disgusting themes, awful writing and the controversy. All of these things makes this anime the worst anime of 2018. Yes, worse than Tokyo Ghoul Re, Citrus or even Conception. If you want to watch this for unirronical enjoyment, then consider what has happened in your life that made you choose to do this and then find a therapist.

Fuck this anime.
