Compared to the franchise's best content, I actually found this episode to be rushed and a little forced. If it wasn't for the final scene then it would easily be my least favorite episode of the second season.
Ah, but that final scene makes up for a lot. As much as I like the sharp-tongued Ruri, I may adore her even more like this.

CAUSE I DON'T. |
Er, Ruri is a high school student, so she's likely more like 16. She was always a year older than Kirino.
And concerning shipping Saori and Kyousuke: That's actually been pretty rare in the doujins I've seen for the franchise. (And there are a lot of them out there.) Will be interesting to see if that changes over the next few months now that we know what Saori looks like when not in otaku get-up.

Eh....I still can't say I approve. They're both minors....still....I prefer teen relationships in anime to remain 'pure and smut-free'....because anime and manga are practically the only mediums that still even do this anymore...
....which I find so sad....

The term minor depends on where you live in the world. Also trust me a-lot of the characters in light novels eventually do have sex at one point but they always cut that out.
If that is personal beef with you have with media in general, I can understand why. We all know what happened to matoko from school days when he screwed up.

People have known what she looks like for a long time now. Though it is true that the amount of doujinshi explode when an anime comes around. Light novel based stuff is particularly scarse when there's no anime (with some exceptions. I first head of Haganai after seeing a bunch of doujinshi for it).
I know there are a couple of Kyosuke/Saori ones but they're definitely a minority. You're more likely to find Kanako stuff.
And now that I look at it, there aren't even any couple shots of Kyosuke/Saori in the PSP games.

The problem is more with the attitude that "He's not banging her immediately, there must be something wrong with him!"

Pretty much, yes.

Heh....if only we could use that episode to make real kids be more responsible....SCARE THEM SH**LESS.
"Remember boys, never sleep with more than one girl in high school and always always use a condom....or your pregnant ex is going to hack you to death with a KNIFE!"

I don't think Blood- being Blood- really warrants this level of discussion.

Honestly, a lot of the content has always felt very forced...
(I remember some content from the first season feeling too much like watching an internet debate being cobbled together into some kind of narrative for an anime)
But that clearly doesn't matter, because we got the last few minutes of episode 6.
I GREATLY ANTICIPATE NEXT WEEK'S EPISODE.

Like... super jealous... gets all emotional over how disgusted brother got during... the date? Or is it something further back than that? I don't know. Whatever.

@ Chiibi - actually, I was being tongue-in-cheek with my comment, not serious. I adore Kuroneko, but in a "DAWWWWWW!!!" way, not a "rawr" way. Regardless of what her age in the show is supposed to be, she does read quite young to me. I just enjoy pointing out what a limpdick Kyosuke is and will use any excuse.

Enh, Kyosuke has nothing on Touma from the Index series, who I am fully convinced is asexual. (He's even that way in a fair amount of that franchise's doujinshi.)
