Otherwise known as, My Little Sister Can't Possibly Be This Boring.
First off, if you didn't watch the "True Ending" episodes and plan to watch this season, you should probably go catch up on those before you do. This season continues where those left off, and assumes that you're already familiar with the new characters and situation that just resolved itself. Not that they're going to help you much, because this episode is really boring.
Seriously. The pacing of this episode is like pulling teeth, but not for the reasons you might guess. Yes, Kirino is still a horrible person, but this one isn't completely her fault. The characters mostly just sit around, referencing things that happened in the True End arc, but without much actually happening. The most interesting part of the episode (Kyousuke asking Kuroneko what she meant by the kiss, as if it weren't obvious) gets cut short.
I understand that transitions between story arcs can be rocky, but this was particularly bad for an opening episode. That said, I'm still staying with this to see more Kuroneko. If I can put up with a whole season's worth of sibling abuse and incest subtext for her, then I can look past an episode that almost put me to sleep.
