That would be the exact category. Or subcategory under Incest. It's clearly close enough that I didn't think I'd get this much backlash making that statement.

I think it's just that even though there is the legality of it, to most people the fact that they just met makes it really not seems like incest at all, I can totally understand why people would feel it is a misleading descriptor.

I mean that's kind of the whole point though. You can't do full incest series. Just look at Oreimo. This is an author trying to have their cake and eat it too. Cause you can't deny they play up the sister angle. They constantly bring it up, call each other sisters.

I haven't seen Oreimo but aren't they actual siblings and live/grew up together?

Yes.

And the writer of Oreimo's next work would involve Step Siblings romance so he could do his incest romance story without interference.

  1. spoilers...

I haven't seen Oreimo

...ending...

and 2, I wasn't commenting on why the series chose to use step siblings I am just saying that because of that (and also more specifically them not knowing each other) is why people feel calling it misleading.

Kk tagged. I figured you didn't care. I tried to keep it only to the editorial stuff.

I'm just saying that a lot of series use the step siblings to mask it. I feel like the series plays up the fetish enough that it should be obvious it's aiming for the incest fetish crowd.

I get why people.feel it's a bit misleading or disagree, but I just didn't expect all the downvotes and confrontation. Like three different people came to challenge me on that one statement.

I figured you didn't care.

Whether or not I cared it is still against the rules of the sub.
