I have no idea if it hit the right spot at the right moment or it is just good overall, but I'm glad I decided not to skip on the show completely after the first episode.
So far it maintained a really good balance of drama, depiction of family interractions and humour. And main character, which at first appeared to me like the one always going with the flow, shows that he is able to change as well. I like it.
Oh, and Akari best girl.
Step-sister is second best but needs some serious therapy.

is the lack of head-tilts killing discussion?
Why are adults always cartoonishly evil in anime?

I think the lack of actual topic kills the discussion.

That's what happens when you show off the worst in people.

They're not? Only his aunt was depicted as such and many other characters agreed that she was a total bitch.
My question is why did Rei's foster-father get kicked out of the association so quick? It's not like he was particularly old. Did he just suck at shogi? Was he taking his own shogi shittiness out on his children, trying to get them to not waste their lives in mediocrity as he did?

Considering that the first episode was him getting bodied by a high schooler, I'd say he's pretty bad at shogi.

That's the three sisters' aunt right? My goodness is the genetic makeup in that family just perfect.

Is there any timeskip in manga?
I wonder how the youngest one will look.

It's a very boring show. SHAFT doesn't know how to make SoL.

You think? I thought they did a really good job with it except for that walk sequence in episode 1.
It's one of the few times when I saw pv for live-action after watching the show and thought 'yeah, that's exactly that'.
