If you are after a comedy that actually makes you laugh out loud, Oreimo is available in Australia on Crunchyroll, and in the US on Crunchyroll right now. Every one of its 2 seasons holds up. Its 7/10 TMDB score, built from 152 ratings, reflects a title that consistently delivers. Yuichi Nakamura is the obvious draw, but the whole ensemble earns its laughs. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Crunchyroll.

There is a reason Oreimo keeps coming up in conversation. Oreimo gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. Oreimo follows the daily life of an ordinary high school boy named Kyousuke Kousaka. Kyousuke’s younger sister Kirino is a pretty fashion model, but also hides a dark secret of being an otaku of adult games. Kyousuke is the only person to whom Kirino reveals her hidden obsession and other issues. Yuichi Nakamura and Ayana Taketatsu lead a cast with the timing to make it work. 2 seasons (2010–2013) gave the story room most shows never get. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and Oreimo holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Oreimo. The tonal similarities to KissXSis are real, though Oreimo carves out its own identity quickly. A contained run means every episode is doing real work. Yuichi Nakamura is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.

Oreimo wrapped up in 2013 — and 2 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
