    When school girl Mitsuki's mother remarries she finds herself with a new step brother named Yuya; then a new posting sees the adults going oversees leaving the two step siblings living alone together. She doesn't really get on with Yuya so is not too happy. Then one day something strange happens; she meets the ghost of a girl called Hiyori and her life changes in some rather disturbing ways. Hiyori puts a chastity belt on Mitsuki and tells her they will both die if the gauge on it becomes depleted… the only way to prevent this is to get in sexual situations involving Yuya… something that naturally horrifies Mitsuki! She can't remove the belt and is terrified that somebody will find out about it and think she is a pervert and to make matters even worse Hiyori frequently possesses her and puts her in awkward positions. Yuya is rather confused as well; on minute his new step sister is being disturbingly forward the next she is standoffish.

    Every season it seems there is at least one controversial anime series and this season it was 'Recently, My Sister is Unusual'; even with the censoring of views of Mitsuki's chastity belt (possibly only in the TV version) it had plenty of awkward moments; some of which were more amusing than shocking. The fact that it involved step siblings just made it even weirder. Thankfully it wasn't all like that and much of the show was actually quite funny. The animation was good enough; of a similar standard to most current anime shows. Overall it isn't a terrible series; certainly not as bad as the plot synopsis might suggest but it isn't a must see by any stretch of the imagination… if you want something weird and aren't too easily shocked it isn't too bad though!

  • This is my MU review of the identical manga: How is this getting turned into an anime and that is also the sole reason i looked at the manga but i wish i didn't. The setting is overused and creepy, the characters are just the worst and the art is bland and amateurish but if you want to read a series where the leading "lady" is raped by a half lesbian ghost every 10 pages while pissing herself once a chapter than this one is for you. If not don't even start but manga by Dragon Age tend to be street trash in general so what did i expect. An explicit sex comedy about a ghost that is actually readable would be My Lovely Ghost KANA (7,5/10) and that Patrick Swayze movie is a decent watch too. Koi Kaze (8/10) further proves that a manga about incest can work just fine and Sensei o Mite Kudasai (7,5/10) would be an example that hentai doesn't have to suck all the time or even be misogynistic. So stick to all of them and just walk way. Update: The anime won the "audience price" for being one of the worst animes of 2014 by ANN so there is that too. This is shonen Borderline-H at it's worst.
